Our fish is different
Great Fish, Great Flavor, Great Memories
We love great fried fish, and we love it even more when our friends and family get to enjoy it as much as we do. Simply stated, we have a passion to cook one thing and do it incredibly well. Our fried fish is hands down the best in the Midwest!
We have an original homemade blend of batter that ensures great flavor in every bite. We serve our fish with our specialty tartar sauce and fish sauce, but quite frankly, most people like eating it just as it is! Oh yes, and our fries are seasoned with a proprietary blend of spices that will knock your socks off!

Delicious!! We tried their fish today and it was great! They gave a piece to try before we purchased! Will be going back!

This is outstanding fried fish! Great owner, great team, great food! Get you some!

I was absolutely floored at how good this food was! I was craving fish and saw their truck in Sparta and just had to try it. The fish was spectacular, nice and crispy, and their sauces? To die for! I was so sad when the food was done! The service was quick and they were so incredibly friendly, as well. I will definitely be going back for more! I highly recommend them!

some of the best fish I've had around this area!! and they answer messages quickly

Great fried fish. No dipping necessary! Crispy and full of flavor. Large portions. We'll definitely be back.

Some of the best catfish around. If you get a chance to try it, you will not be disappointed!

I grew up eating catfish in Arkansas and I absolutely love your catfish. The sauce is great too!

Stopped on a whim and it was fantastic!! we grabbed 2 fish and chips and headed for a picnic at the park. The fish and sauces had so much flavor and the waffle fries were salted perfectly. Definitely recommend trying this little gem on wheels

Food was delicious and didn’t take but about 5-10 minutes! The service was also impeccable. I will definitely be eating here again! Please keep coming to Cassville! 💗

Tonight I tried their food for the first time. Absolutely delicious! Will eat from here again! Hope they come back to The Villages at Nathanael Greene soon!

“THATS AMAAAAAAAAZING” a direct quote from my almost 3 year old after trying her first bite of fish 😊 of course my husband and I love it too! Thanks for coming to Clever every Monday ❤️

The fish was delicious and the service was great!! Please keep coming to Willard!!

we absolutely love their fish, my husband normally doesn't eat fish because he doesn't like the taste of fish but he loves this fish!!! yall are great an so friendly

We are that deaf couple who stopped by to order fish & fries. I’m sorry for the little misunderstanding about the extra fish and extra sauce lol, we don’t lipread that well. Anyways, I’m in love with your crispy catfish, I definitely will keep coming back to order fish from you! So good that I decided to kick flat creek’s catfish to the curb! Fish sauce and fish blend together perfectly like a marriage! 😋

The most delicious catfish made by the most FRIENDLY people. Got a huge plate with 7 pieces of fish and a ton of fries for only $12, and it is absolutely phenomenal...I didn’t even take a picture of it because I started eating the second the box was placed in my hands. The owners truly care about their customers and it is very obvious from the second you walk up to the truck. Hoping they come back to Ozark soon!

Delicious perfectly fried fish. Generous portions and great sauces. Pleasant service. We love it!

Great fish, fries, sauces, it's hot, fresh, and served with a friendly face! Thrilled I got sent to work in Sparta today. Thank you for the great food and service!

OMG- this was so good. They came to my work and catered lunch. I am not a fish person and I thought it was great. I will be keeping an eye out for when you are around Springfield again.

Great experience with food and service! I hope y’all come back to the area :)

Down South Fried Fish Co. is set up across from Security Bank in Cassville. If you haven’t swung by, go getcha some!! Fresh, hot fish ‘n fries + good service!! I sure hope they decide to come back to Cassville sometime!! — Thank you for the amazing food!!! ❤️❤️❤️

Tried Down South Fried Fish Co. tonight for the first time. They said I wouldn’t be disappointed and they were right. Fast and very friendly service and amazing fish. We will definitely be back!

Great food! We didn't wait too long and the food was hot, fresh and so good! we loved the fish sauce as well.

they always serve quality food and i can never get enough of it! I highly recommend mixing their tartar sauce with their fish sauce for the best combination of flavors to dip both your fish and fries in.

Stopped at Down South food truck in Clever on Monday! It was fantastic! The fish was perfectly fried and plentiful, the waffle fries were golden and crispy, and we all loved the fry sauce! My son is hoping this truck is back often!

Tuesday evening , October, 26th , my wife and I stopped by the food truck, Down South Fried Fish Co. that was parked in Sparta. We were on our way home from a stressed day in Springfield and decided to try this food truck for the first time. We ordered 2 of their fish and chips meals . We didn't have to wait only a few minutes and they brought our meals to us in our car . We then found out we were their last customers of the evening. He said he put a couple extra pieces of fish in our container. After we got home we warmed up the meals and dug in , let me tell y'all, this was great tasting catfish, the coating was just right and the fish was cooked perfectly. The waffle fries, aka chips were good too. They included two sauces, a zesty tartar sauce and a regular tartar sauce with dill weed, that dill weed added a fantastic taste to a good creamy sauce. There just wasn't enough of the dill sauce, LOL. I almost forgot to take a picture of the food but did get the last of the fish . We will definitely be returning to buy some more of their yummy vittles. Thank you for serving us awesome meals even though y'all were ready to go home for the day. It means more to us than you know.

This food truck as some of the best fish, and service I've had. And their fish sauce was amazing. Also did I mention waffle fries?

Had it at Cider Days! Best tasting catfish and most friendly service I’ve experienced in a long time!

Finally fish & chips that taste like the fish fry's of my childhood. Actually, it's even better because there is never any bones. haha Very generous amounts for the money. The sauces are great! And my picky eaters can't get enough! It is a must every Tuesday that they are in town!

Lightly breaded and tender fried fish! Not greasy! We loved the sauces too! Delicious and we highly recommend your try them!

I ordered their fish an fries. really good for how fast they managed to get it out to me. The fries were a little salty but decent price for how much food you get. I'm not a "on wheels" type. I'm really picky about those. They did a really good job. Also very polite people. Keep it up.

We came to Ozark today from Cassville, Mo. Saw you set up and just had to try your fish. Very happy with our meals. Keep doing what you're doing!!! The fish sauce is amazing. Everyone should give y'all a try. Won't be disappointed.

Five Stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Even our 2 year old ate all her “chicken nuggets” 😉
