Food always hot, just the right amount of that special powder sprinkled over the fish & chicken; customer service, staff has always been polite and accommodating; and the ambiance, well, it's setup carry out style with a few tables to dine in if you like. There is also a beverage fountain for refills. PS: Make sure to eat the food hot, it does NOT taste the same reheated the next day.
Man!!! The chicken is on a whole nother level!!! Fried to perfection that leaves you wanting more!!!
Stopped by on a Saturday afternoon for lunch, ordered 3 pieces of perch wit fries. Fries were meh at best, hot but not crispy; the perch on the other hand was delicious. 3 pieces of perfectly breaded and perfectly fried fish was a treat. The filets were a generous size, crispy and not greasy while moist and flakey on the inside. Fish was cooked to order, so order in advance or be prepared to wait for 10 minutes. Staff was efficient, tables were a hot mess, they were clean; but obviously had seen better days. Tops of the tables were she real degrees off center and booth sheeting was cut and patched in several places...all this added to the "ambience" in my humble opinion. Next time I'm hungry and in southern PG County, I will be back.
As soon as you walk in you smell the chicken and waffles. It looks like a regular carry out spot but they do have tables if you want to eat inside. Good customer service and the food comes out quick and fresh. This is my second time coming here and I'm never disappointed. The crack seasoning is addictive The best thing about this place is when you ask for extra seasoning they give it to you with no hassle. Overall hands down one of the best pieces of fried fish I ever had !!
3.5/5. This is a decent fried chicken spot. You're not getting anything spectacular but it definitely gets the job done if you want some good wings and crispy fries. Certainly a reliable spot!
