There’s plenty of delicious food to be had in Austin. But if you’re looking for some of that old-school, Texas-style comfort food, there’s absolutely one place you must start with. It’s called Cherry Creek Catfish, and as you would expect by the name, you can get the classically soulful seafood dishes of this state’s cuisine in generous quantities.
This Manchaca Road establishment is well-known for its down-home approach to food. Here you’ll find many comfort food staples, like fried green tomatoes, chicken fried steak, and barbecue ribs. But it's the seafood that really stands out. Check out the blackened catfish, which is dredged in Cajun spices and seared. If you’re in the mood for a po’ boy, Cherry Creek has you covered, with your choice of shrimp, oysters, or catfish. When enjoyed with a side of the crowd-favorite hush puppies, this Texas-style cuisine makes for quite a satisfying meal.
