JimmyK's Catfish
39 Temple Rd, Petal, MS
Crema's Take
“While this appears to be a beloved catfish restaurant rather than a specialty coffee destination, it's worth noting that JimmyK's is a genuine community gathering spot where the owner's warmth is as memorable as the perfectly fried catfish and crispy okra. The shop has earned a stellar reputation for fresh, made-to-order Southern fare at fair prices, attracting locals who appreciate both the food and Mr. Jimmy's genuine kindness and support of local schools. If you're in the Petal area seeking authentic regional cooking and a welcoming atmosphere where you can settle in and connect with neighbors, this is the real deal.”

Great food! He is super nice and a patron of the local schools. Local places like this are wonderful. If you like catfish, get it from JimmyK. His onion rings are superb, too.
catfish and okra are delicious!! + the man there was so kind!
Fish was okay, but the fried okra was good. The next time I order, I will ask for extra crispy extra spicy. All the food is cooked fresh and is ready in minutes.
Absolutely the best Catfish I ever had.And the okra and fried sweet corn and coleslaw were so delicious. I will definitely be going back for more real soon.And Mr.Jimmy is the nicest person you will ever meet.
Absolutely delicious!! The most perfectly cleaned and fried catfish that you'll ever taste in the Petal/Hattiesburg area. The owner is so kind and the prices are very fair. I'm already planning my next visit. Please never close! A++
