The Cat Shack

The Cat Shack, which started as a food truck in 2021 with an eating experience rooted in the culture of Detroit, has added a brick-and-mortar location in Oak Cliff. The truck is parked outside, near the shaded patio dining area so no one can forget. Sandwiches on offer include blackened chicken, catfish, Creole chicken and a couple of burger options, and the Detroiter, chicken shawarma with tomato, lettuce, pickles and mayo garlic spread, all wrapped up in a pita. Stealing the show, however, is the fantastic house-made corned beef and pastrami sandwich served on rye or an onion roll.
