This was my first experience with Hawkins. I found the two operators to be very friendly and…read morecustomer focused. You can tell that Hawkins has a mission to share Jesus while they serve you fish. I admire them for putting their faith forward and in action. Cooking fish on site is not a fast process. So they were apologist about the long wait. The truck is very clean and in good repair. The menu is rather small but has enough options to satisfy. On this occasion we ordered the white fish and perch baskets along with fried okra and fried green beans. I really like fried okra as I was born in the south. The breading was nice. The thickness was just right but it didn't have much taste. It wasn't greasy which was good! The okra pieces were small. It's hard to have fresh okra. These pieces were probably frozen as I miss the rich taste of a large-moist piece of okra. The green beans were a lot like the okra. They are unique and mildly greasy. The breading didn't have much taste and the green bean lacked that fresh moist snap I would prefer. The French fries that came with the baskets were good. They were crisp, medium cut and mildly greasy. Hawkins provided too little ketchup for the fries while providing a large packet of ranch for the beans and okra. Both the fish baskets were good. The breading had a slight spice flavoring. Some of the fish has a little stronger salt taste than I expected as most pieces did not. The fish was fresh and didn't taste/smell fishy. The fish flaked off in firm and small pieces - nicely done without too much of a grease flavor. I have to admit that I was disappointed when they handed me a couple small packets of tarter sauce. I love fish with my tarter sauce. This sauce packet was very bland and didn't do anything to help me enjoy the fish more.

The food was hot and fresh. Good prices and they were very friendly! We will definitely be back!read more

Two pieces of fish was plenty for me with fries and either Cole slaw or another side. You seat yourself but the waitress was prompt and brought our drinks straight away.

At almost $25 it's not a cheap lunch. But it was delicious. A generous portion of flaky, thick cut fish was battered and fried dark golden brown.

Visited the new Columbia City IN location. I am sorry to say that it was awful. Our town was…read moreexcited to get this new restaurant based on the Ft. Wayne location. The food was embarrassing. The chicken breast was as if it were from a baby bird. The Ruben was super thin and left one wondering how this was even a sandwich. The waitress who had been there for a couple of weeks had very little knowledge and took forever to serve us and got the order wrong. The cheesecake was just tossed into a styrofoam box even though it was not ordered to-go. I really wish I could have posted a great review. So disappointed.
