About Catfish Parlour
Catfish Parlour traces back to 1973, when Dave Kerbow opened the original restaurant in Austin. The Georgetown location at 4159 Williams Dr followed as the family-owned brand's second restaurant, carrying the same recipes and hospitality the family has run for decades. It remains family-owned today, with staff who have been with the company for years and a menu built around U.S. farm-raised catfish.
The kitchen serves fresh, U.S. farm-raised catfish with house-made coleslaw, savory pinto beans, homemade hush puppies, and jalapeno tartar sauce, alongside grilled dinners and salads. All grilled entrees, including grilled chicken, blackened catfish, fried oysters, jumbo shrimp, and fried chicken steaks, are gluten-free. The menu runs from the All American Catfish plate to a Parlour Double Smash Burger, gumbo, shrimp cocktail, and house-made desserts like chocolate pie, key lime pie, and blackberry cobbler, plus an express lunch served Monday through Friday from 11am to 3pm.
The Georgetown location adds its own bar with a daily happy hour from 3pm to 6pm and $4 mimosas all day on Saturdays and Sundays. A banquet room hosts larger parties on a preset menu at $26 per person, covering an entree, three sides, a non-alcoholic beverage, tax, and gratuity, with a full-service dine-in option available for groups who want to order off the standard menu instead.
