This place has the best catfish in Austin. I grew up with Arkansas style catfish and have only found one place in town with that type - Cherry Creek Catfish on Manchaca Rd - it is very good. What makes the catfish at Waterloo the best in town is the crust. They use tortilla chips along with other ingredients to create a slightly sweet and crunchy batter for the catfish. The fish comes out crispy, fairly light, and not greasy. I have tried many catfish spots in town and this is the best tasting catfish in town. Waterloo should consider somehow branding this "Austin catfish". It is different from traditional southern fried catfish and should not be compared with those types. It is unique and delicious. Enjoy!

Pros: Best tasting fried catfish in Austin; great place with kids; fresh cut fries; free wi-fi

Cons: Service can be slow sometimes
