Smokin BBQ always understands the assignment, 10/10! Today I ordered via DoorDash because I'm recovering. I called to verify the menu accuracy & appreciated the compassion & willingness to assist. My food arrived piping hot, plentiful portions, packaged safely & perfectly seasoned/cooked. I immediately smiled & was comforted by the personal touch on my container.

When I arrived, a beautiful older woman took my order. It was her first day, and she excelled at customer service. The establishment was clean, and my food was cooked to order. I ordered chicken and one piece of fish. I intentionally chose one piece because I know how Bob's can be when it comes to what's advertised versus what you actually get. Unfortunately, the so-called catfish was disappointing. I have no idea what kind of fish it was, but it definitely wasn't catfish. Look at my pics and decide for yourself. Other than that, everything else was fantastic. The daily specials and the prices are nice

I asked the scanning tech working in the Cardiology Clinic who was working with me if by any chance she had eaten there . She acknowledged that she had and the food is prepared according to your request. After my appointment the next step before heading home was at Phat Matt's . It was dark wasn't sure they were opened. The open sign was lit . I turned the door handle to go inside . It was a small place dark with chairs and a table or two . Gave off vibes you can sit while you wait for you order to be prepared but once ready paid for proceed out the door you came in. . There wasn't any customers inside just a young man probably no more than 22 working by himself. The menu is posted on the wall in colorful chalk written by someone with a nice penmanship. My eyes focused on the catfish category on the wall. Oh before I forget its a "Cash Only" business . I had to look inside my wristlet to make sure I had money to pay for my meal. Some of the chalk writing was smeared . I learned the cook on duty when I visited was named Jacoby. He was average height thin he looked a little tired or maybe lacking some energy. He came to the counter to see if I was ready to place my order. I responded I was . I started out stating for me what I didn't want. On my 3pc catfish basket I did not want any hushpuppies or a slice of white bread cut in half or possibly toasted to be included. I didn't time Jacoby but its wasn't too long of a wait . I asked him if I could take pictures of the menu in case I wanted to stop by again if the food was good after my next appointment at the VA The food was smelling good nice and hot . My food was in a little paper basket inside a white paper bag . I grabbed a few napkins nearby. There was a tip jar in the counter . I left a couple of dollars as I picked up my order inside the white bag he had gently placed on the counter. Thank God for safe traveling grace and arriving mercies to my home . I stopped by QT on my way home to get a large frozen coke . Surprisedly the food was still pretty hot from my nineteen miles journey. I forgot to request my fish be fried hard paper on the side of the basket . I smelled it strongly from the moment I picked up my order from the counter. Fries were nestled under the three flaky crispy filets. The fries were soft kinda soggy but edible. I was able to eat this meal and enjoy for a couple of days . I plan to stop by again whenever I have my next appointment at the VA. Chef's ‍ kiss

I got the seafood baked potato with sausage. The seafood was shrimp. And it had Alfredo sauce on top. It would have been a 10/10 if it had a tiny bit of salt in the sauce. My granddaughter got the Lobster Mac and cheese. It would have been a 10/10 if the noodles were more al dente'. But it was still fabulous. My daughter got the Cajun Seafood Pasta with Sausage. She gave it a 9/10 because shrimp wasn't detailed (I didn't mind) and the noodles could have been more al dente'. Over all, I would definitely recommend JS International.

We ordered a simple two-meal order and waited 45+ minutes, only to receive the wrong food. During the wait, we could see several plates sitting ready in the back. Instead of notifying customers as each order was ready, our number was eventually called along with about five other orders at the same time. By the time we received our food, parts of the meal especially the chicken were already cold. The catfish was also disappointing and had way too many bones. I understand restaurants get busy, but customers shouldn't wait 45+ minutes for a simple order, receive the wrong meal, and then get food that has been sitting long enough to become cold. If an order is ready, call the customer's number and serve it fresh instead of holding multiple orders just to hand them out all at once. Better communication, order accuracy, and attention to food quality would make a huge difference.
