    a chicken sandwich and french fries in a styrofoam container

    This is good fast chicken and fish. The fish was made to order and so crispy and nice. I loved it. Now the fries were not ok nothing to rave about. However, the service is great and they social distance well. I would come back here.

    This is what I was sold! That's a no for me!

    Well, normally I try to be patient with people during the lunch rush hour. I made myself a clear as possible as to the pieces of chicken I desired. Of course that was not honored at all. Next, I believe your food should be fresh especially if all you sell mostly is chicken. I was sold refried chicken as a fresh batch. I am a chicken connoisseur and believe me I know refried chicken. I will not advise people to go for hot fresh chicken. Not here!

    Well, what can I say? This was a place I have had on my Arlington bucket list...kind of glad I got it out of the way. To start off, I mean we weren't expecting a 5 star luxury experience, but it had the ambience of a laundry mat. There's seating for 4 people - that's it. We went in with very high hopes considering fellow yelpers gave this place 4 stars on average. I really feel like people had their judgment clouded by the portion size and price. That, it did have but surprisingly there was NO flavor. We ordered the 5 piece chicken tender combo. Priced amazingly well at $6.05 including tax. It comes with 2 sides, a roll, white gravy, and a medium drink. The roll was your average grocery store quality roll; even serving it with a good ol' King's Hawaiian sweet rolls would've been better. Every single item lacked flavor and salt - very surprising considering that fried chicken joints are notorious for the opposite problem of being way too sodium-laden. The fried okra was well fried and had a crunch but again, no flavor. Just battered okra bits.The white gravy and mashed potatoes tasted like instant mixes and again needed salt. We clawed at the black pepper shaker and vigorously shook it to help the gravy have SOME taste. I heard the same grievances about the hush puppies and fries. The chicken was also salt less and wasn't crispy. Oddly enough my friend scowled after her first sip of sweet tea. It was SUPER sweet and even after having an employee dump out half and fill with unsweetened tea and more ice, it was STILL too sweet. We also heard an employee (or maybe Lisa herself?) in the back say out loud, "my customers don't know how to count." I'm going to give Lisa the benefit of the doubt and just hope that maybe the chef was out or maybe it was just an off-day? I might come back but idk.

    One of the better chicken places. Catfish had good flavor, though I prefer thick-breaded, full body catfish.

    Has anyone tried their wings yet? I heard on Arlington foodies that they were really good.

    I've tried the wings. They remind me of the "blazing wings" you can get from Walmart frozen section. They are good and crispy. They are not sauced.

    Saturday lunch around 11:30am, not a line but they did get a bit busier. I've been here a few times…read more& I'm surprised it wasn't as busy for a weekend. It's really just great food, nothing fancy but delicious. I had the lobster roll, I came with coleslaw & fries. I'm not a coleslaw person but it was pretty good. The fries were perfect & they have that good ranch. The lobster roll itself was on Texas toast, buttery toasted goodness with meaty lobster. I'm definitely going to have to go back for this sometime soon, it was $20 for my meal. My friend had chicken strips, no complaints there & we shared a basket of fried pickles. Clean restaurant, fast service, tasty food, & friendly staff. Prices are fair, no concerns with menu options for everyone. Fun, chill place with a lot of fishing decor & photos. There's a reason why this place has been here for so long, great lunch stop!

    Came on a Tuesday afternoon and had the special Caddo (tilapia and shrimp over rice with a creamy…read moresauce). It was pretty good and I was surprised at how thick the tilapia was. Shrimp on top was a little chewy, but acceptable. DH had the shrimp po boy and it really could have used four or five more shrimp. More bread than anything. I tasted his fries and they seemed to have been fried in old oil. I love hush puppies, but could only eat a small bite of the one I tried. Again, old frying oil that soaked the entire hush puppies. There are fish photos all over the walls, which are kind of fun to look at. Will be back because we have friends that like their Tuesday special, but overall the food is just OK.
