2025 Centurion Award winner

Mike Linnig's

Best Fried Fish in Louisville · Louisville, KY

Restaurant · Louisville, KY · Since 1925

The overview

Riverside fish plates under the trees

Mike Linnig's has fried fish on the banks of the Ohio River since 1925, a sprawling, tree-shaded seafood institution where the fish sandwiches are famously the size of a plate. Families eat at picnic tables under the trees, plates piled with fried fish, oysters, and onion rings.

Little changed in a century, Mike Linnig's is a warm-weather Louisville tradition — the riverside fish fry the whole city grew up making the drive out for.
