Forget all the other roadside seafood restaurants around this area… Kast Net is the one you want to go to if you’re here! The atmosphere is casual and home-spun, nothing fancy. The specials menu was extensive but we stuck to the regular menu and ordered the fried shrimp basket and shrimp, grouper and catfish basket. Both came with fries and your choice of cole slaw or cheese grits. We were surprised at the portions when they came out– huge for the money! My husband, whose plate was much larger than mine, ended with a doggy bag! The batter was well seasoned and the fry was crisp and light. The cheese grits had a great flavor and consistency and the cole slaw was on the sweet side — just to my liking! SAVEROOMFORDESSERT! Their dessert menu is extensive and seems to rotate daily. We ordered a chocolate lasagna cheesecake and a strawberry tall cake to go — both were homemade and SPECTACULAR! The service was great– our sweet waitress filled us in on specials that people enjoyed and chatted with us about what to do if we wanted fish tacos next time(she said call ahead and then we will probably see it on the specials board– how’s that for service!). We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone in the area. Both of our meals with dessert and tip were $ 40– extremely reasonable! We will be back!

This place was absolutely slammed the night we were there. They do a lot of take-out business, which should tell you it’s good! I had the grilled chicken tenders, broccoli, and loaded baked potato. They also give you a bowl for a trip to the small salad bar. Save room for dessert! The Chocolate Lasagna was simply fantastic. While we were leaving, I also noticed they served phở. Wish I would have tried it!
