Established in 1973 by Dave Kerbow, our restaurant has become a beloved fixture in the Austin dining scene, known for serving up generous portions of delicious, sustainably-sourced seafood and homestyle favorites. From the very beginning, our mission has been clear: to offer food that people truly enjoy, in an environment that feels like home.

Catfish Parlour is a story of family, community, and a love for good food. As a family-owned business, we cherish the relationships we’ve built with our guests over the years. Our staff, many of whom have been with us for decades, embody the spirit of hospitality and service that has defined our brand since its inception. They are not just employees; they are ambassadors of our ethos, welcoming everyone who walks through our doors with open arms and a warm smile.

Our journey from a single location in Austin to additional spots in South Austin and Georgetown is a testament to the loyalty and support of our customers. Each Catfish Parlour restaurant reflects the character of its community while staying true to the original vision of serving tasty, heartwarming meals in a comfortable setting.

In joining us at Catfish Parlour, you’re not just enjoying a meal; you’re becoming part of a tradition that celebrates the best of Southern hospitality and cuisine. We invite you to experience the warmth, flavor, and history that make Catfish Parlour a place where every visit feels like coming home.
