    Hey Yelp Fam! Hey y'all, I'm back with another review, and this time we're in Florence, South Carolina. We were out and about and wanted to try a new place to eat. My sister mentioned that she came across a spot on TikTok that everyone was talking about--apparently, they serve huge portions of seafood at a reasonable price. Honestly, there wasn't much convincing needed. She had me at seafood, big portions, and affordable prices, so I was like, let's go. When we got there, the parking lot was pretty full, so we expected a bit of a wait once we went inside. They do have a drive-thru, but since this was our first time and we weren't exactly sure what we wanted to order, we decided to go inside instead. For it being our first visit, we ordered quite a few things: shrimp platters, a hamburger just to try it out, and even a couple of hot dogs. When the food came out, they weren't kidding about the huge portions. You get a lot of food--served in what looks like a medium-sized pizza box, overflowing and a bit greasy. But the food was good. I really enjoyed the shrimp and fries, and the hushpuppies, fried okra were good too. I didn't care too much for the hot dogs or the hamburger, or salad, the bake potato. The grill shrimp was ok but to be fair, when I go to a seafood place, I usually stick to seafood. When I post the photos, you'll see just how much food they give you. Overall, the food was good and the service was solid. Would I go back? Probably. I'd likely check out a few other seafood spots in the area just to compare, but if I couldn't find another option, I'd definitely come back here and order the shrimp platter again.

    HONEST REVIEW!!!! They give you a TON of food. However, the wait is too long and the food is not well seasoned. Our order was missing the fish but was easily resolved. If you want a ton of hot fried bland food, this is the place for you! The customer service was excellent but unfortunately I don't think I'd return. There is nothing special about this place.

    First visit here and we were loving the minute we walked in the door. The restaurant is very clean and the staff is very welcoming. We ordered the calabash dinner and the old fashioned. The plates have more than enough food. I think I finished 1/4 of the platter and needed a to box. Same with my husband. Everything is flavorful and not too greasy. We were shocked by the prices because we thought it could be more compared to the amount of food we received. We will definitely be back.

    Can you believe this is a hushpuppy? Haha

    I hadn't been to Jumping J's in years until yesterday when I happened to be in the area. I had yesterday's Shrimp special which came with 2 sides. I got homemade onion rings, a side salad and complimentary hushpuppies. I ordered online and picked it up shortly after via drive-thru. The gentleman who gave me my food was very welcoming and had a winning smile. My food was hot, tasty and filling. I also had the strawberry shortcake. I was stuffed and very satisfied. I might go back today and get me one of their good cheeseburgers. Thanks Jumpin J's!

    Driven by many times, always crowded, finally stopped. Located beside Maryland Fried chicken on S Irby St, Flo. Was in search of a healthy meal saw reviews of the flounder platter decided had to try. This restaurant has variety of burgers/seafood platters, all the fish items are breaded except grilled shrimp which my wife requested. Breaking down my meal, the breading is very thin so can just pick off for fresh hot flounder, yummy. The coleslaw has similar taste to Bojangles if you know what talking bout so that's good. The circle battered items are hush puppies not onion rings, the shrimp were small but the amount given makes up for this. Also included are side of fries, all this in one platter for $12.95 that is value. Side note, my wife felt her gizzards were not thoroughly cooked for her taste so this could vary person to person. So to wrap up, very good portion for money. Due to amount of food I would definitely utilize drive-through next time as it is nearly 3 meals worth depending on your appetite.

    Wonderful. The service was down home. The flounder was fried good and seasoned. I love the slaw. Portions were fabulous. You will leave satisfied, and with leftovers. The burger was cooked great with bacon fresh lettuce and tomatoes. Tons of fries. The Fried pork chops were cooked well and seasoned to the bone. The interior was very clean. The menu is very broad. You can definitely find something that pleases your tastebuds. The price is definitely right.

    Delicious food! I got a hamburger plate large, and got PLENTY of French fries. The service was super fast and extremely friendly! The restaurant was clean and someone was always sweeping and wiping down tables. Sondra was wonderful and polite! I can't wait to come back! Definitely worth a try and great prices too!

    Soggy greasy fries with no salt. No large cups for drinks, so I had to order 2 small drinks instead.

Placed our order and waited (not long). While waiting, overheard a request for a bag of fatback. After further investigation, Woodstone also sells skins. Add a bag with hot sauce to my order! Can't eat them everyday, but trust, they were crunchy deliciousness in a bag! My meal of BBQ ribs, mac & cheese, cabbage, chicken bawg and hush puppies was soo good! Standout stars were the perfectly steamed cabbage and well seasoned chicken bawg! Portion size will enable me to have 3 meals. I was so excited about those dawg-on skins, I forgot to order dessert. Note to self, meal, skins and dessert next time.

I had my full Family at the house waiting for this meal. They had nothing posted on the web site to warn people that take out would be very limited . No the wife is in panic mode family dinner ruin Father's Day all screwed up. They lost out on a very large order. But because of this I will never eat there again and I will do everything I can to hurt them in the pocket book I would rather eat at hamburger joint than give them any money

The team was friendly and welcoming plus helpful. The restaurant was spacious, clean, and looked cute inside with ocean-themed colors. Restroom was clean and fresh. The restaurant doesn't have a loud fish smell. There's a view of the Florence, SC water tower across the way. Pretty neat. As for the food, I ordered the Pick 2 which was Cod Nuggets, Catfish, corn on the cob, cabbage, and came with hush puppies. Cod nuggets at first bite were delicious and catfish was great too. I didn't care for the brown cabbage or brown corn. I think maybe the corn was brown because it was the end of day. The hush puppies were over cooked and probably end of day rush. Other than that I see photos from my sister's visit and see the hush puppies look much lighter usually. I'll let it slide. They should add more or change side selections like offer baked beans. Nevertheless, I highly recommend this place.
