I've been hearing about this place for a while and decided to get something to-go. It takes about 15 mins to make since it's cooked to order. The chicken tasted fresh, and I loved how crispy the skin outside was. You could tell it wasn't oily at all which I liked. I liked the chicken but I did feel it was missing something. I can't explain it. I got my chicken dark. Also, tried their large sweet potato fries and mashed potatoes. I wasn't a fan of the mashed potatoes at all. The fries were good, and the fried okra was just okay to me. I do want to try other options on the menu. read more

Freshest chicken and yummiest that my husband and I have eaten in a long time! I had the 3 piece white meat. It was crispy but not overcooked and seasoned perfectly (not too salt or bland) My husband had the chicken tenders and they were really good. The Cancun fries were ! I didn't like the macaroni because it was spicy (didn't know bcs it wasn't noted that it would be spicy) The mashed potatoes with white grave were pretty good. My biggest suggestion would be to make rolls instead of plainwhite bread. The lady at the checkout was friendly and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the restaurant was clean and not loud.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

The fried chicken was so crispy and juicy! 10/10 would get again. However, the chicken tenders were dry. Won't be getting that again. We also got the fried fish and it was good, but wasn't a fan of the batter that was used. The people working there were so kind! They even gave us chicken skin to try! Will definitely order that next time! We want to go back and try the wings and gizzards! read more

Yesterday, I ordered takeout from here after hearing the hype about it being the "best fried chicken in Mansfield." Unfortunately, my overall experience was average, primarily due to the inconsistent food quality. ​Ordering was a breeze--the online system for pickup was easy to navigate, and the meal felt reasonably priced for a family order. When I arrived for pickup, I was immediately greeted by a lady who was super welcoming and genuinely friendly, which was definitely the highlight of the visit. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The store was cool and clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] ​However, the food itself was mediocre. The most significant letdown was the fried chicken. It was not tender at all; rather, it was rubbery, and I suspect it hadn't been fried for quite long enough. I also picked up a piece where a large section of the batter had come off one of the wings, and while the batter was seasoned some, I was not impressed with the underlying flavor of the chicken. ​The sides were also problematic. The sweet potato fries were okay, though I've definitely had better elsewhere. The mac 'n' cheese was another surprise: it had a heavy kick to it and was unexpectedly spicy. It would have been fine if it had been designated as "spicy" on the menu, but since I'm not big on heat, and my kid wouldn't eat it, it went unfinished. ​Maybe this was just an off day for the kitchen, but based on this experience, I just don't get the hype. If this place is going to be touted as the best in town, the core product--the fried chicken--needs to be significantly better. read more

Okay Mansfield has something special. I am a wingstop and pluckers fan 100% but this place knows what they're doing. They fry their chicken up to a perfection and the skin on the fried chicken especially is to die for. I also like that they have all sorts of chicken in case one person isn't a fan of wings. Try to support this local place! I do wish they had the classic wing ranch we're all accustomed to. read more

This is one of the best fried chicken I've had around here. So flavorful and its crispiness is crazy! Make sure you get the fired chicken skin, that is a must! I haven't had any chicken skin like this before. It stays crispy after I have refrigerate it for days. Macaroni balls are also delicious with the garlic sauce. We got the fried oysters also and it was so crispy and delicious! Must try all of this! read more

Nice little find. We went in right after they opened, and just one employee was working the place. Fortunately she had it all under control. The food came out quickly and was pretty good. The chicken strips were fresh, and the fish and shrimp were cooked perfectly. Everything was well seasoned although the crispy fries were a little salty. Overall a good experience and we would return if we were ever in the area. NOTE: you order and pay at the counter. It gave us an option to tip, which we didn't do because it was counter service. However, she also brought our food to our table and came to check on us afterwards. As a result I went to my car and got some change for a tip for her. Wanted you to be aware so you could tip up front if you choose to. read more

I've been here so many more times since my first, I LOVE the chicken skins!! I tried their fish not too long ago and it was so good so this is my go to for fried fish! They recently changed the menu, so things did go up in price a tiny bit, but makes sense. I will always be back when craving chicken skins!! Since the last time I reviewed they also now have online ordering!! Definitely a plus! read more

The chicken is pretty darn good. However, the sides were among the worst I've tried and it's quite disappointing to have paid for them. The mashed potatoes were chalky and had a TON of pepper with no salt. It was intolerable for all 6 of us. The gravy had an extreme amount of salt and we couldn't use it. The Mac and cheese had this odd kick to it and were oddly not creamy, like at all. I'd 100% buy chicken again here but since they don't have good sides, and we are a sides family, I won't buy too terribly often. We hate wasting money and try to power through food that isn't great but we had to throw the sides away as they were completely inedible. read more

Having a party and they catered Bob's Chicken and Seafood fried chicken. The chicken was super crispy and still very juicy inside. Every flavor are delicious and perfectly seasoning.

The chicken here is delicious it has that crispy crunchy exterior that you crave while being extremely juicy and flavorful on the inside. I'm partial to the bone in chicken but the stripes here are also delicious. Many flavors and seasonings to choose from. The spicy house made dipping sauce is craveable and great on everything.

Omg best chicken ever!! Always crispy and cooked when you order. Love the sides as well, spicy Cajun fries and okra

We had the gizzards, fried chicken, mashed potatoes, mac n cheese and corn nuggets. The gizzards were seasoned well and delicious! We could tell the chicken was never frozen. It was so moist and the skin was extra crispy. We loved the corn nuggets! Loved the dipping sauces, especially the spicy ranch! The service was excellent! Will definitely come back! read more

Tried Bob's Chicken and Seafood after hearing some locals recommend it, but I walked away a bit disappointed. The staff was friendly enough, and my order came out pretty fast, but the food just didn't hit the mark. The chicken was overcooked and dry -- not the juicy, flavorful bite I was expecting. The seasoning was okay, but lacked that punch you want from a good Southern-style spot. I also tried the fish, which was greasy and under-seasoned. Fries were soggy and lukewarm by the time I got home (and I only live 5 minutes away). [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place itself could use a little TLC -- not dirty, but not the most inviting either.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] For the prices they charge, I expected better quality and consistency. Might give them another try down the road, but for now, there are better options in Mansfield for fried chicken and seafood. read more

The people there were very nice and helpful. The food was crisp, plus when I took home extras, it stayed crispy even until the next day.

The chicken crackling and chicken skin was amazing! The spicy sauce is excellent! Hot and fresh!

Bob's Chicken and Seafood is phenomenal! My husband and I have ordered the family sized 10 piece dark chicken with corn nuggets and mashed potatoes with brown gravy. We have tried the spicy garlic, spicy ranch, and white gravy as sauces which come on the side. The chicken is fried to perfection. It is crispy, moist and overall, just delicious. We found the pricing to be reasonable. read more

The customer service was excellent and very accommodating. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was our first time ordering, and the place was spotless.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They even had TVs playing football games.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]As soon as you walk in, the delicious aroma of the food hits you.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We tried the chicken wings and chicken tenders; I might experiment with a different seasoning next time. The Cajun seasoning had a sweet undertone that I wasn't a fan of, but everything was cooked perfectly. I'll definitely return. I also asked about the fish, and while it's not actual catfish, I appreciate their honesty. read more

Fried Chicken Skin is a must. In-house made dipping sauces were really good. Loved the spicy garlic! Fried okra was also really good. Not salty like other places. Service was great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Clean environment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Fried chicken was okay. It was super hot, so that was good. I was thinking the batter would be more like the Fried chicken skin but it was different. Not a fan of the mash potatoes. read more

We brought our entire family for dinner on a Thursday night. The service was quick and friendly. We tried almost everything on the menu, and enjoyed it all! The cracklings were so crunchy and flavorful. I liked that the chicken was very lightly battered, and that there were many dip choices. Among our favorites were the spicy garlic sauce and the house tarter. We will definitely be back soon. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The kids really enjoyed the dinner.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Very good tasty quality food (chicken & macaroni cheese) were good. Friendly staff. Will be back.

Growing up fried chicken was a staple in our family's dinner table. So glad we finally have a top notch Fried chicken joint in Mansfield. 5/5 food, the fried Chicken was hands down to die for! Best I have had in a long time or maybe ever. Don't forget to order the sides they were good as well. 5/5 service, the owner personally came out to great us and offered us free drinks. 5/5 ambiance, honesty better decor and cleaner than most chicken shaks and I would actually dine in here. read more

A friend told me about the place so since we're visiting them in Grand Prairie and it's only 10mins away we decided to stop by and check it out on their grand opening day 6/2 boy are we in for a delicious treat. Walking toward the front I guess they had a local car club showed up for support. We saw a Nissan Gtr R32, Dodge Viper, Lambo and a Tesla Cyber Truck.... Very cool sight. The shop isn't big probably comparable to a wingstop but it's brand new and clean and it was crowded I guess many heard of the grand opening or just near by traffic stopping by to get pickup. We ordered a bunch items since we skipped breakfast and was ready to chow down on some fried elites. We ordered gizzards, fried fish filets, wings, fried oysters, chicken skin (chicken cracklings/crackles) They're new so it took a bit to get to our orders but nothing too long out of the ordinary maybe 10mins or so? We talked to the owners a bit they're locals and been living in Grand Prairie fo years. Onto the foods.... The batter was thin not caked on like some fast food places and very crispy! The meats from the chicken combo and wings are very tender and even juicy to our surprise! A surprisingly favorite was the fried oysters! Omg... So fresh and meaty to bite into! The fish filets were large and thick cuts and okras and fries are done well not overly cooked in the fryer... Kiddo had fun Wifey was happy and I was full! A very enjoyable lunch and place to visit! read more

I am very picky, but this chicken beats my mother's chicken. The taste is amazing. And it stays crispy, just amazing. Cooked to profection. I heard so much and it's hard to get good food . highly recommended.Thanks Trane for the referral. Best ever. read more

My daughter was in the mood for fried chicken and I didn't want to do the normal Golden Chick/Chicken Express. I read about this place in a FB foodie group and the reviews were really good. I can see why now! The coating on the chicken is so crispy which my daughter loved. She said the Cajun fries are delicious, but she wasn't a fan of the mashed potatoes. I got the fish and shrimp with corn nuggets. The pic I attached is only half of what came with it. The fish are big pieces and the shrimp were huge compared to what you get at other places. I had enough left over for my lunch the next day. While waiting for my order a gentleman came out and gave everyone a sample of the gizzards. I've never had them before so I tried it. Turns out I don't like gizzards, lol, but I'll try anything once. If you like gizzards then I think you would like these. The sauces are really good. I especially liked the tarter and spicy ranch. The spicy garlic is spicy spicy! There is a little bit of a wait, but the food is piping hot and very fresh so I don't mind waiting. read more

After reading all the positive reviews, we decided to try Bob's for ourselves. AM I GLAD WE DID!!! This most definitely was the very best fried chicken we have ever eaten. Skin was tasty and crisp, chicken super moist. Yummy, yummy, yummy!! My only small complaint was the corn fritters. Pass on those. Good job guys!!! read more

The sauce was the best part & i think chicken should be able to stand alone. It was OK at best. I wouldn't get it again. The last owners were better, hands down. read more

I Ordered 2 Fish, 5 Shrimp and 6 lemon pepper wings with fries. My order arrived hot and crispy. However, neither the fish nor wings were cooked properly. I specifically requested in the special instructions section to fry hard. Apparently, no one adheres to the special instructions section. The fries were very crispy and tasty. read more

Some have said it's as good as Mike's over in Dallas. I got to say it's even better. This is exceptional fried chicken. Stopped by as I was in the area. I'd already had lunch so got a few things as a snack. Chicken cracklings. A fried thigh. A couple of tenders. 3 fried shrimp. Spicy garlic sauce. Tartar sauce. Chicken cracklings. Just call them crack. They are glorious. Addictive. Bob should sell them in bulk; like a dump truck. Chicken. The batter is perfectly crunchy and very well seasoned. The chicken in both the thigh and tenders was moist, well seasoned, and tender. I could eat a bucket of this chicken. Shrimp. Too often chicken or seafood joints sell frozen shrimp out of a bag. Here the fresh shrimp are deveined and battered, and have a touch of panko. They are big, perfectly cooked and seasoned perfectly. Could eat a bucket of these too. They are perfect. The sauces are made in house. The tartar sauce is great and was good on both the chicken and the shrimp. The spicy garlic is sort of a sriracha mayo; it was very good too. My lone complaint: would have liked a lemon wedge for the shrimp. I should have asked; they might have. Didn't try any sides but will when I go there for dinner. Great place. Wish it was close to me in Arlington read more

Idk, the chicken is just missing something! I loved the hot sauce and the corn nuggets were ok. Maybe they need to take an ingredient or two out chicken and change the coating. read more
