Reviews
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Mrs. Freeman
Kimble was nice. Part of my family and I visited while we were in town for the Church of God in Christ 117th Holy Convocation in November 2025. The place has a very clean appearance and smells like fresh fish.
When you walk in, the fresh seafood case is on the right and the cooking area is on the left. There is minimal seating, but no tables and chairs. The workers were very pleasant with us and kind in explaining their process. Ultimately, we ordered buffalo ribs, catfish filets, seasoned fries, and fried okra. It was nice! It was good that this was a place in Memphis that did not disappoint us. We will return again another time.
⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5 — Lady D
Very nice fish market for fresh fish. We have enjoyed getting Catfish fillets and frozen Onion Rings and Golden Fry Fish Breading. We also bought two pieces of Carmel cake. Mmmm good.
⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5 — Samuel F. Campbell
Great food! The Buffullo Ribs were hitting right on the money! The meals all come with coleslaw and you have a choice of Spaghetti, Okra, or French Fries Seasoned or regular. My first visit I was pleasantly surprised. The fries were a healthy portion as well. The fish market atmosphere grabbed me time I walked in, You could see butcher shop process of the fresh fish. Once I found some help... I figured out where to place the order. Keep an eye on you food Fridays can get confusing. Be nice and put a tip in the Buckets. I'd suggest you get in early or call ahead.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Jennifer Thompson
The best fresh fish hands down. I wish we had one where I live. The catfish and boneless buffalo that I had was fresh out the grease. It was seasoned to perfection. It was so good!! Omg. I’m getting hungry thinking about it now! Love this place. Will be back.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Irma Hale
These folks really know how to make good catfish and all the trimmings. I'll never pass through town again without stopping here. Loved it. And everyone is so nice
