Trudie’s Catfish Cabin

We saw Trudie's while driving by and decided to try them. I am glad we did because their food was delicious. We went in between lunch and dinner time so it was quiet. The inside is spacious and although the parking in the front is just a few spots, I think there is additional parking around the back. We had chicken and waffles, fried okra, catfish and fries, and a grilled chicken salad, and butter roll for dessert. None of the food was too salty or too sweet but just right to our liking and overall, everything was very good. Our waitress was great and the service was great as well. It was a pleasure to meet the owner and hear the background story to the restaurant. My family really enjoyed the food and we will definitely go back to try the other menu items. .

I was really craving fried catfish this Saturday so I yelped catfish near me and this place came up! We dined on a Saturday evening around 630. It's in Arlington but not too deep in Arlington and it's truly a small mom & pops place! There's only parking for like 5 cars in the front and right near the railroad tracks. When we got there, there was only 2 other guest there and There was one waitress. We didn't wait to be seated as we were told we could sit anywhere we liked. They had pandora up on one tv playing some nice jazz music and another tv with football on it (sound off). The decor was very nice! Lights coming from the ceiling and there was even a stage where it looked like they may sometimes do live music(maybe during the brunch hours). Our waitress came right over and took our drink orders, which i must say, their Arnold Palmer was very good! She was very polite and had a smile on her face! She immediately got our drinks and asked if we needed some time to look over the menu. As fellow yelpers, we had already looked at the menu and needed no time. We placed our orders: my son got the 2piece catfish and fries, husband got the catfish sandwich & added cheese with a side of okra. I ordered the large catfish plate (4pieces a of catfish) with collard greens and macaroni and cheese as my sides & a small basket of seasoned fries for my youngest one. It took about 20 mins for everything to come out. Everything down to the fries and okra was fresh and hot! The fish was fried perfectly and had a great taste! Even the collard greens and macaroni was very good! I truly enjoyed everything about this place and will def be back anytime i have that catfish craving! They do take to go orders and i believe they may even do catering! I am so glad to have stumbled across this restaurant! You all should def give it a try!

The staff here were very friendly and welcoming. They really had the "southern charm". I really enjoyed the catfish and broccoli. The collard greens were a bit too salty for my liking.

We just had a truly enjoyable meal at Trudie's. It is a relatively new place, having only been open a couple of months, I think. As such, they are still working out some of the kinks. We were seated for well over 5 minutes before we were waited on. Apparently there was some misunderstanding about whose section we were in. Never mind, because both of the women involved could not have been sweeter or more apologetic. And from then on out, the service was great! We came for catfish, and that's what we got! It was all delicious, but special recognition goes to the macaroni and cheese and the hush puppies! The interior looks nice and fresh, a little quirky (I'm looking at you ladies room ) but it's a great little place all around. It's 25 minutes from my house, but this is our new place to get our catfish fix.

CATFISH was pretty darn good, tasty breading , the hush puppies & macaroni was spot on, A little pricey, but Tasty! really friendly people working here as well.

Good food. Wasn't busy for lunch. Great catfish and great fresh fries as well. Definitely worth a try if you haven't yet.

Wonderful place with great food. Very warm and welcoming atmosphere. Call ahead to check if they're open.

To be a restaurant in today's times you have to be fairly "over" priced.. (I don't think it's over priced its fine) but you also have to have phenomenal food and service. And when I tell you the catfish and chicken tenders are some of the best I've ever had! And the ONION RINGS ARE FUNNELCAKE ONION RINGS!!!! Original as can be trudie! I was also refilled on 5 sweet teas and sometimes I wish they would take longer to refill because I don't need to drink that much! Great service but the BEST food! Hope this place keeps cooking!

This was my first time here. The food was very very good especially the catfish. A nice and quiet ambiance and the place was fairly clean. Now for the service, I forgot the name of my waiter, but he was a bit mentally challenged. His words were a bit slurred, and he gave us the wrong ticket. To make it worse the credit card machine wasn't working and he wasn't making it any better. After standing there for 45 minutes I was forced to use my cashapp account to pay and finally leave.

The food is extremely overpriced The greens are out of a can, okra is prebreaded and a 2 piece fish dinner (they say it's 4 but they cut the filet down the middle) wll set you back $20.
