Welcome to Middendorf’s Seafood Restaurant, “Home of the World Famous Original Thin Fried Catfish®.”  This year, we’re celebrating 90 years!  We’ve been around since 1934 with locations in Manchac, LA and Slidell, LA.

Families have been dining with us for generations, enjoying our delicious seafood, down home comfort and kid friendly environment.  We like to say “Memories are made at Middendorf’s.” 

To find out what’s happening, check out our calendar.  In the Fall, we have our annual celebrations of Fettuccine Frenzy and Oktoberfest.  Definitely stop by during the holidays too because we go all out with Christmas decor.  

If you’re interested in hosting an event with us, we have great rooms available for meetings, seminars, rehearsal dinners, birthdays, anniversaries, fundraisers, and more!  Want an extra special menu?  No problem.  Middendorf’s Owner Horst Pfeifer is a European Master Chef.

That’s a quick look at Middendorf’s. We look forward to seeing you!  When you dine with us, you will not only have a great meal and a great experience, but you will become a part of Middendorf’s legacy.  Welcome aboard. 🙂 #dorfer4life 

Fall is the best with Fettuccine Frenzy & Oktoberfest!  Both events are at Middendorf’s Manchac and Middendorf’s Slidell.  Fettuccine Frenzy is every Wednesday, Thursday and Friday in September.  Then, it’s Oktoberfest every Wednesday & Thursday, 10.2.24-11.7.24.
