    Marta is the best waitress. Claws were fresh and sweet. Catfish was great. Hostess that was on 12/27 was really nice too. Haven’t had a misstep here in many visits. Thank you.

    A true South Florida experience. A bit divey but great service, and really good fish, lobster and crab legs. It was busy and everyone, including us were having a great time. Definitely worth the visit!

    Catfish Deweys is ALWAYS a visit for my wife and I when visiting Pompano/Ft.Lauderdale area each winter break. The all you can eat snow crabs legs are fresh and delicious. The Ribeye was outstanding. I have to say, the fried oysters are some of the best that I've had at any restaurant. The portions are grand as well. This is a MUST stop when in the area.

    Seemed like just us but our waitress was not attentive. Didn’t ask how the food was, didn’t ask if we’d like a drink refill. Had to flag her for anything we needed. Just basically ignored us until time to settle the bill which was over $100 dollars.
