I trust Yelp this time and surely this place live up to their reputation on Yelp.
Don't get the name fools you. I was craving for Stone Crabs, and I know it's in season as if April 2018, I got lucky.
I didn't want a fancy place where I pay $40 for a jumbo claw. I realized this place is out of the way for us from Fort Lauderdale Beach but after viewing the photos and menu. I knew I must come here.
I called in first to see if I can get a reservation. The gentleman on the phone was kind and professional to take my babe down. He said it would save me Table by the time I get there. It was Mr. Dewey I later found out.
It was a Tuesday night. The place was still packed when we arrived at 8pm. Look like a diner in a movie on Route 66, guests seem happy, and everyone was laughing.
The hostess was quickly seated us. Our server Josey (Josie) was wonderful. She knew we were first timers.
$19 for a Jumbo claw stone crab only - as big as my hand
$74 for 8 large claw stone crab - 2 lbs
$35 for 4 clusters snow crab - 2 lbs
$21 for 7 oz lobster tail
Each entrée comes with 2 sides, we got Mac & Cheese, grit, green collard, corn, 2 coleslaw, and Free hush puppies too.
A bottle of St Francis Sonoma Coast Chardonnay for $26, we were full and happy.
We came for stone crab and mission accomplished!
We also met Mr. Dewey, he was humbled and so kind to have a photo with me.
If you want straight up stone crab, snow crab, lobster and Southern foods, come here, as fresh as you can get for as little as compare to a fancy restaurants in Miami.
Genuine family owned and operated since 1984.
Honestly, the best atmosphere, the best staff, the best food I’ve ever had the pleasure of experiencing 🤷🏻♂️
Highly Recommend !
Came with a big group and they were able to accommodate everyone in a timely manner !! Waitress did a great job at ensuring everything came out fresh and with whatever condiments that were needed. She also suggested favorites and most popular dishes without being prompted.
They have great specials that you should definitely take advantage of.
The catfish, shrimp and scallops were cooked really well.
From the outside looking in it does not seem to hold a big crowd but it is possible.
Everyone was friendly and welcoming. There is also a bar area if you do not want to sit at a table.
The restrooms were clean and fully stocked.
Would visit again.
1st timers on vacation and did not disappoint! Server was attentive and very informative. Hush puppies and cole slaw for everyone was so good. All you can eat catfish was on point with greens, my girls loves the crab legs and huge side salad and i thoroughly enjoyed my fried shrimp and grits.
I can’t say enough good things about this place. The food was amazing. Hush puppies are great. The shrimp are out of this world! Paid about $150 for 3 people including alcohol, really not bad for the area. We walked right in and felt so at home, the staff was so nice. Definitely will be back! Thank y’all!
The Mrs found this place & Wow what an awesome spot. I had the tuesday shrimp special-all you can eat-with the catfish, the Mrs had the stone crab. The stone crab is seasonal, so be sure to check before you go!! If you get any of the specials make sure you get the grits, they are the best I have ever had, anywhere, hands down. Parking is limited but they have an attendant to help you find a spot, if needed. Put this on your list folks, you won't regret it.
Add this to your list while in town or if you live here! We went in “all you can eat” crab leg night and were seated quickly.
The service received from Marta was remarkable. She was attentive and professional. She anticipated our family’s dining needs and questions. It was a truly fantastic experience due to her passion for service.
The food was also delicious! The crab legs were a hit and endless on Thursday. Others ordered chicken tenders that were crispy and delicious. The homemade sides were so good. Greens, Mac and cheese, and fries - all tasted just like home. We will definitely be back!
Catfish, Frog Legs, Hushpuppies, Collard Greens, and Slaw, whew doggies! Thas some good eats!! Everything was great - nice find....
I really enjoyed my dining experience at Catfish Dewey's restaurant last night. The food was delicious & my server (Joy) was awesome! Only issues I had that parking was very congested & also management should acknowledge military veterans just like active service members with meal discounts too.
Great dinner tonight at Catfish Dewey's in Fort Lauderdale. It's the end of Stone Crab season, so we went there to enjoy that, and also Snow Crab Legs.
Jessica was our server. She was very busy, yet super organized and efficient. As soon as we sat down, she brought us our drinks, along with complimentary hush puppies and coleslaw. All dinners come with a side, so we had french fries and macaroni and cheese.
Got to meet the owner, Dewey, and told him how much we enjoyed the food and the place. We are looking forward to going back again soon.

The food is excellent at Cat Fish Dewey's. Everyone there is mostly locals.
Every night, there is an option for all you can eat, snow-crab, ribs, etc. You can not beat the prices for the amount of food some people can eat!
The staff are always pleasant and attentive.
The atmosphere is "old school", which is fine. We don't mind at all. It reminds me of Best Western meets Howard Johnsons. (Paneling on walls, indoor/outdoor carpeting on the floor, and a big wagon wheel/seahorse lighting in the middle of the room. But honestly, it really doesn't matter because the food is delicious and who needs modern flare to enjoy a good meal. We come for the food.
The catfish is REAL southern catfish! If you ever had it, you know exactly what I'm talking about. You will not be disappointed!
First time here. The hype is real. BEST cole slaw I've ever had! Catfish buttety soft and seasoned to perfection. Warm and friendly ambiance. A trip back to the 80s with the decor that hasn't changed, but still feels cozy. Can't recommend this place enough! 5 stars all around!
