Taranto's Crawfish

Great catfish, some of the best I've ever had. Three good size pieces in the catfish basket for $15.99. The toast was a smashed roll, not good at all. Thank goodness I ordered a side of hushpuppies for the 4 of us. The fries were the coated seasoned type, not my preference but everyone else liked them. I also added two sides of coleslaw for a $1.99 each but they were very small and not cold. I gave the rating a 5 because, the catfish was that good. The resturant is in a nice neighborhood, nothing fancy, but you need reservations unless you order to go ahead of time. There were about 15 people sitting or standing around waiting to go inside. A sweet teenage host told a man needing a reservation for 3, it would be about a 45 minute wait. I was able to get my call order in about a 10 minute wait. Very busy place. I picked up a menu, so enjoy it and the next time you're around Biloxi/Wiggins area, look it up. Best catfish ever and living in Arkansas, that is saying a lot!

This place doesn't take reservations and it is common to have a 90 minute wait - the place is pretty small. We went for lunch, which only had a 30 minute wait, which was acceptable. We were able to sit outside and order a beer while we waited. We had the crawfish platter, which was wonderful. It was boiled with jalapenos, which gave the crawfish a nice flavor. Service was attentive and the food was delivered quickly. It was wonderful and we would definitely be back - for lunch.
