Hands down this is the best fish and tartar sauce in the area!! I’ve lived in Cypress for 7 years and traveled a many of places all over Houston for seafood and THE STATION SEAFOOD is the BEST seafood I’ve had! Seafood is not my first choice of food, but THE STATION IS MY PREFERENCE at least twice a week! Fresh food, always hot. Customer service always on point. Just hands down a great atmosphere to enjoy a nice meal at a good price. And the wings, omg, better than wing stop! Lemon and pepper ratio is done to perfection! The chicken is juicy, moist, flavorful! Like WOW! Fresh! The outside is

I've been here about 5 times now, the food is always really good! Unfortunately I live about 20 minutes away in avg traffic so its not something we get often.
Anyways tonight I placed a order and picked it up. When I got home the shrimp ettoufee had very little in the dish much less than usual. And the fried okra and fish that we ordered was missing from my wifes order.
So I tried to call but the phone number didnt work, I assume this is a bad number on google. Anyway I went back and the young lady working the drive through was very understanding and agree the dish was not prepared right. She

I saw The Station Seafood Co. a few days ago and after going home and looking up their website and reading the reviews I decided to try it out. I went there yesterday placed an order to go. I went inside to see what the inside looked like before I ordered, I always go in the first time to see what it looks like in side and make sure it is clean and yes it was very clean. Everyone that works there was so nice and helpful. The food was amazing, everything is fresh made to order, even the homemade sauces. If you want fresh seafood at a good price, you have to try this place. I have tried just about

My last 2 experiences at The Station Seafood Company’s new location were among the best in terms of taste.
I visited during one of the Friday night concerts featuring Lyndsay Freeman. The atmosphere was top notch and the fish and shrimp seafood platter placed the experience over the top. Both were deep fried to a golden crisp unlike most that I’ve had in recent years. Whether it was the frying time or the batter itself, that recipe combination should take precedent.

I thank the management for giving me a 20 % discount on food purchased for my family and friends that was staying in a hotel because of Hurricane Ida. They traveled as a family, 16 cars load of adults and children. It was a blessing to give them a taste of NO in Houston. They loved the flavor of the fish, shrimp and chicken Again thanks to management and those who prepared the food

We've been wanting to try this place. So yesterday, we finally did. We were not impressed.
$11.99 for an oyster po-boy that only has 4 little oysters on it, is not worth it. It was 80% bread, 17% lettuce tomato and sauce, and 3% oysters.
We also got the 2 fish 4 shrimp meal for $14.99. Which comes with 1 small side, and 2 tiny hushpuppies, pretty much forcing you to buy another side of 5 tiny hushpuppies for $2.50. The hushpuppies tasted just like the ones I buy frozen from Kroger and were smaller too. The shrimp were over cooked and not very flavorful. The only thing we really liked, was the

The food was amazing. Hot and fresh the catfish was fried perfectly and the grilled shrimp were a great size too this was my first time to this location and my second time at a catfish station. I forgot how good one of these small meals were. The only thing I didn't have enough of was the sauce lol. The cocktail sauce was the best. So the next time I go back I'm definitely going to ask for extra sauces. Can't wait to come back and the staff was very helpful and quick.

Yum! We loved our food from The Station tonight! We ordered a fish basket and a fish & shrimp basket with fries, hush puppies and cole slaw. We also tried an empanada and the Cajun candy wings. EVERYTHING was delicious and we are already talking about our next visit in a few weeks with my father in law when he's visiting.

The restaurant was very clean when I went this past Sunday and everyone had on their mask. Seemed a little short-staffed but everything was still moving efficiently. Came in for two shrimp basket and decided to try the scroll. Definitely would not recommend the sky roll at all !!! The fried shrimp is huge but my only hiccup was it lacked full flavor plus it seems they fried it in the same oil as the fish. This is not good for those with allergies but so many seafood restaurants do this. I say this because I had an allergic reaction. I ate the grilled shrimp and green beans basket the following

Came here today for lunch and had the Red Beans, Rice and Sausage. It was so good I ate all of it and it filled me up. The customer service was excellent (Lincoln), the only thing I see that need to change is the size of the cup the water. I think it should be at least a 16 ounce cup but other than that it's a really nice restaurant to dine in or take out.

As usual the food was delicious. I placed a ToGo of shrimp and grits for me and an additional catfish plate with red beans and rice for my friend.
First of all, do yourself a favor and order grilled shrimp on these grits because they are absolutely DELICIOUS. They are nicely sized and blackened without being overly seasoned.
CON: There's a lot of butter/oil from the shrimp on top, so be mindful of that. Maybe they could drain that before plating it.
Now the catfish was fried to perfection which was excellent because I can't stand overly battered or over fried chicken.

Bored on Thursday and didn't feel like cooking so went to check this place out. I ordered 2 fish and 4 shrimp combo with red beans and rice. Hubby ordered same except his side was potato salad. We also order a sky roll extra. I forgot to take pics of my food to share but it was really yummy. Fresh fish and shrimp fried to perfection in my opinion. My red beans and rice said it had sausage but I never found any pieces in it. The potato salad was interesting. It was sweet but also had corn which was a first for us. Not knocking it cause it was good. Overall the place was also following social

This is a good place for basic seafood. Not fancy, but not a total dive. Unfortunately my diet will not allow the fried varieties of anything right now. I can only stomach so much grilled chicken.
Very good options on the combination plate! Two nice sized, according to the menu-4 oz each, catfish fillets. Really think these were closer to 6oz each. Four well portioned shrimp too. Seasoned correctly and grilled fresh upon order. Cole slaw was my side and thankfully they did NOT drown it in dressing! Listen up BBQ places.
Casual atmosphere, they do being the order to your table after ordering

I placed an order for pick up, when I got there I waited roughly 5 mins for someone to help me. I guess the front lady was helping the kitchen out, which is understandable.
I ordered the Shrimp combo with a side of friend and 2 hush puppies come with it. Shrimp had a decent size, tartar sauce was different from other cajun places but overrall it was good.the hush puppies were good. I think the price was to high for just 7 shrimp.
I also ordered Bread pudding which didn't meet my expectations. It tasted more like a cinnamon roll than a traditional New orleans bread pudding( maybe it was

1 star for the fish and shrimp because it tasted fresh and was big in size however the batter and seasonings were super bland and my food was soggy. My fries were stale and my cole slaw was also bland. Cole slaw is not that hard to make! I guess all catfish stations aren't made the same because I frequent at other locations and they make it really good. How do you mess up fried food? I don't recommend this location

I came to Catfish Station with my three coworkers for lunch on a Friday. I usually don't do fried food much but it was Friday so why not? I think we got there just in time before all the lunch crowd came in. We placed our orders at the front and found a table for us pretty easily. The ladies at the front were nice. The one that took my order greeted me and made conversation with me. The other lady even complimented my outfit!
I ordered the catfish and shrimp basket that also comes with fries and hushpuppies for about $7. Yum. It didn't take long for our food to come out. I started eating

We were actually driving to Merche located on 290 and huffmeister but found out that the restaurant had closed down. (Possibly post Harvey). With severe disappointed on our faces and no other alternatives, we just started driving up and down on huffmeister till we saw catfish station.
With reluctance, we decided to go with it and did we make the right decision. The place was relatively full and after quickly looking at the menu, we opted to go with a fried catfish meal with French fries and a side salad. We actually both decided to order the exact same thing.
My fish was very well seasoned
