“ First time from Conway. We loved it! I surprised my mom and husband to lunch and the 40-45 drive was worth it. Everything we tasted was good. ”
“ This was our first time going here. It was delicious and clean, we went at 1pm buffet big selection of food. Salad, veggie, fish, chicken, rolls, hush puppies, etc .... Really great price also. I loved the catfish, hush puppies, beans, carrots, salad, sweet tea. The staff was friendly and helpful. Since it was our first time they explained to us what to do. Sounds silly but I'm glad she told us. ”
“ Nice place, great catfish, all you can eat. Big variety to choose from. Friendly people. Waitress was always filling our glasses, did not have to ask. Just great service. We were there for lunch and it was great. 5 stars across the board. ”
“ I called and placed a to-go order tonight, and from the moment they answered the phone it was the most pleasant experience I’ve had in so long. I don’t frequent Russellville very often, but I had remembered how much I loved the cinnamon rolls when I was a kid. They’re just as good, if not better, than I remember. And the ribs and bbq sauce are out of this world too. They were so kind, prompt, and lovely to order from. The food was hot, delicious, and the best experience I could’ve had. They ROCK! ”
“ Wow I wasn't really hungry till I walked in and I could smell the food. Then I laid eyes on the buffet and knew I was in for a treat. This is absolutely not typical buffet food. The quality is so far above that, that there isn't anything I can compare it to. Nothing instant, everything made with love like it should be. They had fried white fish, regular catfish, and Cajun catfish. I tried everything and loved it all. They even had homemade potato logs. And they were great. Anyway, I don't know what to tell you other than to give this place a try. It made this fat guy happy ”
“ Birthday Celebration! This was our first time at Brown's but it will not be our last! The staff and owner were amazing and made our party the best time ever! They offered to keep the cake cool until we were ready for it and I can't thank you enough. The food was sooo good and fresh and hot. I've been to my share of all you can eat and most of the time the food is cold and the selection is sad, but not at Brown's Catfish there was so much to choose from and it was always hot. The owner was so nice even took a pic of the cake I made Lol Thank you to Mr. Brown and staff for a truly amazing time! Hello Mr. Brown the link did not work ”
“ Really enjoyed our first meal at Brown's. The food was good. The white fish we were disappointed with. It was rubbery. We were really looking forward to the white fish so that stood out to us. After trying so many really good items then trying the white fish our expectations were set high. Loved the cinnamon rolls!!!!! Appreciated the ice cream after dinner. Overall a great experience. It was very crowded. Staff were all very kind and helpful. ”
“ Best restaurant I've been to in SO long!! I was in town visiting my daughter and a group of us went to Browns for dinner. My daughter and I both have many food allergies and the owner of Browns came out himself to ask what we were allergic to, then specially made us both food. He was extremely accommodating and caring. The food and the service was impeccable. 5 stars for sure!! A must eat here!! ”
