Visiting with family and we all decided we wanted some fried fish. After reviewing Yelp places, we decided on Martin's.
There is about 8 parking spaces outside, wasn't a big deal when we first arrived we were the only car. When we left every parking spot was taken.
We ordered (3) Catfish Platters, Shrimp Po' Boy, large side of Fried Okra and French fries.
Each platter came with 2 sides and 3 hush puppies.
Fish was cooked perfectly, good flavor. French fries were crispy. Mac & Cheese was good, fried okra was tasty.
Shrimp Po' Boy was good as well.
All these orders fed 5 adults, and we still have enough left over for tomorrow.
I would definitely be back, either on this trip or the next time I return to Mississippi. -

Great food but do not accept debit/credit card and don't even mention it when you are ordering. WOW!!!! Parking is ridiculous and at ties roped off do to neighboring businesses.
Traffic in area can be horrible at times. -

Boy thank's to Yelp we found a true gem off the beaten path. There was no line when we got there but the place was soon hopping after us. We shared 1 lb of fried (19)shrimp wish was lightly dusted with flour. Mike had the Mac & cheese & coleslaw. I had the sweet potato fries which were lightly dusted with powder sugar. The hush puppies were huge & fried to perfection. Yum. The place felt like we were eating in someone's living room. The service was friendly & quick. We came out there stuffed

Hush Puppy Heaven!
Stopped in Martin's today after craving good fried fish for a few days. Little did I realize that the restaurant is only about ten miles from where I live in Clinton.
Admittedly, I was taken back by the set-up of the establishment. When I walked in, I felt like I was crashing a family dinner. There were lots of patrons waiting for their meals, they appeared to be at home and kicked back conversing.
I ordered pantrout, fried corn and macaroni and cheese.
The dish is served with two of the crispiest yet moist hush puppies I've consumed.
The portion of fish was enormous...enough to snack on the rest of the day. I'm admittedly prissy and I don't care much for fish with bones. I struggled eating, but it was worth it. The macaroni was creamy and good, I just wish there were more of it. The portion only amounted to about three fork-fulls. The fried corn on the cob was a treat, as I had never had it served that way.
I believe I paid about $12 for the meal.
There are several coolers of bottled sodas and drinks available. Tartar sauce was available at an extra .50 cent. I also spotted desserts in the coolers.
The cashier was helpful and attentive. The wait wasn't long at all. I carried out, but you are also welcome to dine in. -

This is my favorite place to get fried fish. I rate it number 1 in town with Cock of the Walk being like 1b. Lol. The only reason why I don't give it 5 stars is because sometimes the fries are cold and even if you call your order in, you still wait at least 20 minutes before getting your food. I'm willing to bet that they don't really start cooking your order until you walk in and tell them who you are. The fish is always fresh and hot sooooooooo it's kinda hard to be mad that you had to wait a bit. I love it mostly because of the regulars who lounge around, everybody's so friendly and talkative and they sell what I'd consider old school dranks...yes, I mean dranks, not drinks. For example, "let me get a Faygo drink" doesn't sound cooler than, "let me get a Faygo drank." Lol. Anyway, try it out and let your own mouf (mouth) decide.
