Cravin Catfish

Great catfish, fried green tomatoes, greens and hush puppies. The address is incorrect and you will end up in an ubndersirable neighborhood. Call ahead for directions.

Bring your heart monitor. The food is all of a fair to good quality and there’s tons of variety, if you like fried things. They have their own quirks (pay first, refill drinks by putting a sign on the table, warehouse setting/​décor), but service is excellent and friendly and only there when you ask for it. Restaurant serves a lot (hundreds) of people, so the lines can be long — but I’ve never had that long of a wait. If you can manage to go around 4:30 — 5:00, you have a better experience.
A great place to eat yourself into a stupor. :)

If you want grease then that is what you’ll get here! Be careful not to slip on the floors because they are also covered with grease. Oh and if you’re lucky you’ll get to see the owner yelling at one of her waitresses until they cry and sometimes even a customer! She is so rude I don’t know how she keeps this place open. You couldn’t pay me to ever eat here again.

I’ve never been to a catfish buffet before. It was good! They had catfish, talapia, fried chicken, hush puppies, Mac n cheese, fries, onion rings, greens, fried okra, fried green tomatoes, rolls, coleslaw, etc. This place is in the middle of nowhere and looks like an old warehouse. It’s kinda scary on the outside and on the inside, but the place was packed. It’s not the best catfish I’ve ever had, but like I said it is is good for all you eat catfish. Be ready to pay $ 13 a person.

If you want fried food and plenty of it, this is the place for you. I visited this place on a work trip since my coworkers raved about the food. Apparently they are only open Thursday through Sunday or something like that, and I think it’s also the only restaurant in Blue Springs. There’s pretty much nothing in Blue Springs! I had been warned about the atmosphere — a big metal building with rows and rows of tables, and huge buffet stations filled with all the fried goodness of the south. I have to say, I was still a little shocked at all the fried food. I didn’t even know what most of it was, since it all looked brown and there were no signs for what each item was. Thank goodness there is at least a salad bar, but basically lettuce and no other veggies. I did manage to find some green beans among all the brown. The food was just ok, I was a little disappointed considering all the good things I had heard.

Looove this place. It CAN be a wait in the buffet line if you arrive at after 5pm, but the food is just like from Momma’s kitchen (don’t tell Momma).

Just average food. Buffett style. Not worth the wait at buffett line.
