So many great memories of Vaughn’s, Ragan’s ( squirrel lady) and Jack at Monti. Booth.

How was the fish and rest of the meal? When the beans became the best thing they had, we stopped going, haven't been in a couple years. White Oak Buffet in Sulphur Springs is our go-to fish place now. Is this better than AJ's?

Vaughan's had some great catfish (and shrimp) back in the 90's and early 20's. Owner sold the business and it got bad real fast. Stopped going for many year's. Went back a few weeks ago at the recommendation of a neighbor (I have a place on Sandlin). Fish, hush puppys, fritters and beans all were very good. It's is now back on my "recommend" list. So try it again to see what you think.
It ain't cheap though!

I agree with most of you about it being overpriced. Fish is good, but not great. Price is way too high.
Ciro's in Caddo Mills right down the road from us is our go-to fish place. Crazy good food. We go to Sandlin a few times a year and used to go to Vaughan's, but haven't been in years.

Overpriced, extremely mediocre fried food! That has been my experience also.

New owners have restored the quality it once had. Went in the spring and everything was very good.
