Hook Fish & Chicken has been a family-owned Pittsburgh staple since they first opened their doors…read morein Homewood back in 2005. I have been coming here for years, and it never fails to hit the spot. Even though I don't eat fish, their perfectly seasoned, crispy fried chicken is easily some of the best in the city. My boyfriend is absolutely obsessed with their fish too, we both love that our food always comes out hot, fresh, and delicious.

I just wasn't the biggest fan. The food was edible, but the main dish left a lot to be desired…read more Keep in mind all their food is on the salty side. I tried their catfish nuggets with coleslaw and fries as well as their funnel cake fries. The catfish nuggets just weren't the best. The fish itself was very thin and slimy. There was a ton of gray meat as well. The breading was kind of strange and tasted very strong of cornstarch and vinegar. Some of the breading was falling off, too. Not the best. The coleslaw wasn't any better. It came in a very small portion. Additionally, it was super liquids and sweet. There wasn't any creaminess. Overall not good. The french fries were actually pretty decent, though. They were crispy and cooked well. Soft on the inside. Also, the seasoning was very solid, and they gave me multiple sauces for free, which was also nice. The funnel cake fries also weren't that good. They had this sort of strange flavor that I can only describe as "dirty fried" like there was something there before they entered the fryer. Quite greasy, not enough powdered sugar. Bland and tasted stale. All in all, the place gives cheap food, most of which seems to be somewhat sub-standard. If you really just want something cheap, it's an okay spot, but quality is not the best. There's not space to sit inside, too, so call in for takeout or order online.

Summary for those who don't want to read the whole review: Everything I ordered was FRESH and…read morecooked to PERFECTION. 100% recommendation, just go already! Review: I went in the "to go" side of Hook Fish and Chicken. I didn't know what I wanted and the employee was nice enough to show me the order screen on the wall. It's their cashless ordering system. I looked through and selected my order. I will say, there isn't any pictures on their ordering system for you to see what the items look like, BUT paired with their online menu... I was able to figure it out. I chose 5 wings (did 5 single wings) and mozzarella sticks with bbq sauce and ranch. All sauces are prepackaged and I thought they would add sauce to the wings after frying. They do not but you can order bbq sauce to dip your order in. I must've entered the wrong door because prior to me going, I looked up this restaurant and thought it had a dine-in option. Not a big deal as there's a little community garden right around the corner and I ate in the shade of the garden surrounded by plants. Now onto the food... the wings were COOKED TO PERFECTION! I have NEVER IN MY LIFE had better wings than this restaurants. And that's saying something because I definitely think myself something of a wing connoisseur. They had the PERFECT level of crunch on the outside to wet on the inside ratio, plus the seasoning that they used was some kind of dry rub that was just HEAVENLY. I almost didn't need the bbq! The mozzarella sticks were perfectly fried and had the right level of crunch and the fries were crunch on the outside but soft and amazing on the inside. 100% will go back to this location!

This was my first time ordering from this restaurant via Uber Eats and it had high, mid, and low…read morepoints. Let's get into the high points first. The fried chicken was crispy and delicious. I enjoyed it without and with hot sauce -iykyk. Mid point - the collard greens were okay. I ate them because I need to keep my meal balanced with veggies and while they weren't super tasty in flavor, the texture was good and they weren't bad tasting. Just meh. Low points - I should've heeded the reviews about the Mac and cheese. Not a great taste or texture at all. I wish I had tried a different side dish. I couldn't finish what was on the fork of my first bite. And while I did skim the peach cobbler for a couple of peaches and a tiny bit of crust because I just had to satisfy my need for dessert/sweet tooth, it was a cup filled with oil and the cobbler was barely edible. So disappointing especially since I couldn't exchange it for something better. I'd definitely order the chicken again. I would just try some different sides and desserts.

But oh my god is that chicken bomb. They deep fry the whole check wing so the flat and drum are attached. It's very greasy so if you got a sensitive stomach be careful. They then load it with a homemade dry ranch seasoning that makes this even better Now. It's 3/5 because 1.) I don't like fried chicken much to begin with. Only when I really want to hate myself I want it and this is the spot for it 2.) Service and inside both shit I would really recommend this spot but def a different location, all taste the same
