CRESTVIEW—David’s Catfish House is bringing its Southern-style seafood to the Crestview area.
Locals might already be familiar with the regional brand that operates a location in Milton and several locations in south Alabama. The expansion to Crestview was an easy decision for the company, according to general manager Dan West.
“[Crestview] seemed like a good market, so after a couple years of talking about it, we decided to make the move,” West said.
The company frequently had diners from the Crestview area at its other locations, according to West. That’s how they determined the Hub City was a logical site for a new location.
David’s serves a mix of seafood options including catfish, shrimp and oysters, but also features “turf” options like hamburgers and chicken. Catfish is sourced from Mississippi and local companies, according to West, ship all other fish from the Gulf of Mexico.
Although catfish is in the name, that’s not the only thing David’s prides itself on.
“Our cole slaw is a signature item,” West said. The cole slaw can be bought by the gallon at some locations, according to the company’s website.
David’s will open for business at 11 a.m. on Feb. 4, West said. Hours of operation will be 11 a.m. until 9 p.m. from Tuesday through Saturday. The restaurant will be closed Sundays and Mondays.
The stand-alone location is at 1296 N. Ferdon Blvd., near the Winn-Dixie shopping plaza.
