Shad's Catfish Hole

Outstanding Meal!!!Best catfish I've ever had along with delicious beans, coleslaw and hush puppies. We even had some frog legs very large and delicious. The service was amazing!!! I'll be making this restaurant a regular place!The atmosphere was great had live music in the background.Can't wait to visit again!I would highly recommend!

This was an interesting find. The food was good and the service was good. The restaurant is a little off the beaten path. If you're looking for something "close" to town - this isn't it. They are located near Spiro, Ok - sort of between Spirit and Sallisaw, Ok.I cannot say we have complaints, as the food was good and service was good, they had a great "set up" that included pickles, Josh puppies and Cole Slaw. We got baked potatoes and fried catfish, fried clams and fried scallops. We really enjoyed it.

They have the BEST catfish dinners! Also have steaks, salmon, and shrimp to name a few.. The service is ALWAYS exceptional!

What a great fish find in a small town, omg everything was prepared when ordered and super delicious. The place is clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful with the menu items. I reluctantly ordered the fried scallops which I've never had, usually it's grilled or pan seared but I'm so glad I did. They were super delicious and not over cooked at all. The endless fried catfish is amazingly delicious and we definitely ate our fill. There was a line out the door around dinner time but it's worth it. We will definitely be frequenting this spot.

Always good and fresh. We've been going for years and don't mind the 45 minute drive because it's worth it!

This was our first and last time at this place. Our food was SO salty we could not eat it. I had the catfish dinner and my husband had a steak. The best part of the whole dinner was the hush puppies, and the relish which were very good.

Decent catfish.Wonderful coleslaw and hushpuppies alike. (I judge a place by its hushpuppies, and the ones we had at Shad's during our last visit were homemade. I hate it when hushpuppies just come out of a bag -- I can get THOSE at a freaking grocery store.)About twelve bucks plus sales tax per diner for AYCO catfish and sides. (Be sure to try the tomato relish! The stewed pinto beans are also tasty.)Clean-ish restrooms during peak hours. (Yeah -- "ish.")Ample parking.Decent but not exactly effusively friendly table service.Cash only.

Sides are served family style. The pinto beans are amazing. Bowl after bowl of hush puppies served warm with butter. Catfish fillets, all you can eat. I ate and ate and ate. Best catfish I may ever have eaten. It's off the beaten path, it fills up quick!!! It's worth the drive!!!!!!!

Good food, lots of good food! We had the catfish and the shrimp. Both were good but the catfish wins easily.

The food was outstanding and the waitress was exceptional. I look forward to going back soon and I will invite friends.
