Flying Fish Little Rock Restaurant Review

The Flying Fish restaurant located downtown in the River Market district is a restaurant that serves up fried catfish and its normal accompanying menu items in accordance with the slogan “catch and release, into hot grease.”

This downtown restaurant is convenient for any visitor staying in the downtown hotel areas, but it also a local favorite. On most nights, and especially the busier hours of the weekends, there is a line to get to the counter to place your order for the tasty fried catfish, oysters, shrimp and other southern fried delicacies. In addition to the fried menu items boiled and grilled items are also available, but this restaurant excels in the expected deep fried catfish of Little Rock.

This isn’t a fine dining restaurant as it is self service for filling up your drinks, and picking up your order when it is ready, but if you are looking for really good fried catfish in a bustling environment this is it. The place is kind of loud with people talking and having fun. This is a casual place to go and have good greasy food with good people and enjoy yourself.

If you aren’t in the mood for fried catfish or other similar foods, or want to have a sitdown dining experience then choose another restaurant, but keep the Flying Fish on your radar when you are ready to bite into that fried fish. This is a good choice for those times when that is what you are looking for.
