At Southwind Fish, located in Memphis, TN, seafood lovers are treated to a delightful homestyle dining experience. Patrons rave about the fried fish, notably the tilapia dinner, which exemplifies the restaurant's commitment to providing perfectly cooked, non-greasy dishes. Customers like Carol Brown frequently return, drawn by the consistently hot and flavorful meals and the warm hospitality of the staff, notably Ms. DJuana.
Catissue Hayes-Davis highlights the mouthwatering honey hot whole wings and generously sized whiting, praising their perfect fry. While some diners suggest a touch more seasoning might enhance the fish, the overall value for money remains a resounding theme. Miya Piya echoes this with her enthusiasm for the well-crafted potato salad that complements the main dishes beautifully.

My favorite place to eat. Our Food is always good and hot. My husband and I comes at least three or four times a month from Oakland Tennessee. We Love Ms DJuana. God bless you all

I ordered honey hot whole wings, fries, with a extra piece of whiting and it did not disappoint. The portions are worth the price. The wing sauce was delicious and were fried perfectly. It was a large piece of whiting fried perfectly. Now I do think the fish could’ve had a little more seasoning but I’m heavy hanging with the seasonings. All in all it’s worth the price and I’d definitely order again.

Southwind fish is a homestyle restaurant. It's family owned and operated and they are in my opinion the best place to get fried fish done right. It's not greasy, it's not overly seasoned and their potato salad is so good. I recommend the tilapia dinner.

Southwind catfish sell great tasting fish one of the best in town. They sell large portions for family events and even sandwiches for daily lunch. Great customer service I believe the owner use to attend my home church Olivet Baptist church. A restaurant

My friends and I came in and we instantly felt like we were at moms or our aunts house. We received a warm welcome when we entered and the smell of good ole’ country frying/cooking consumed us. We all ordered different meals, and they were all delicious. The hospitality was truly southern and this is not a one time visit type of place. Picture below are the tenders & fries, hot wings, with a side blackened catfish. (Note: the tarter sauce with hot sauce on top is a local signature sauce ) Check out my IG: BushnMajor for more reviews!

This was my 1st time here! I truly enjoyed the food no lie! Everything was seasoned and hot! First time in a long time I can say the food was seasoned right! Now the atmosphere wasn't the best because you can only order to go. You can't dine in. The ladies were pleasant. The younger girl wasn't as friendly, the older lady was very nice. I'm going back 2 times, is a charm! Compared to others I have had, Southwind has canceled some of my old choices outttttttt!

OMG, not only is the food (AWESOME)!!! The presentation is (AWESOME) as well. It's literally the best I've tasted other than my mom. Customer service needs a little work but It wasn't bad.
