Tried this place out to see if it was good. I wanted wings so it was the closest spot to me at that time. I ordered the 6pc hot wings combo. The wings didn't seem freshly cooked, the sauce was good. I also asked for the "Mason" sauce and it made the wings better. The fries were fresh and the tea/lemonade was good. The food came out at a good time, not a long wait. There was no other person in the restaurant but the drive through was busy. I gave it two stars for the wings tasting like they were fried earlier and reheated with the sauce on it, and the fact that the lady taking the order didn't greet me when I walked in, she just looked at me while standing by the register. She took my order and was helpful, but the initial contact could have been better. read more

First and last time visiting this place. Customer service is lacking and the food is NOT good. I ordered the fried catfish and the fried pork chops. The catfish (Swai) was too salty to eat and the French fries were overcooked and brown. It also tasted like the grease needed to be changed. The seasoning was added to the pork chops after they were cooked and it was only added to the center of the chops and not the entire chop. It also tasted like the grease needed to be changed. The French fries were overcooked and brown and should not have been served to anyone. The only positive was the food was cooked to order and served hot. read more

A Big NO for me sadly. Masons Seafood Review: I recently dined at Masons Chicken and Seafood with higher expectations, given its reputation within the metro. Unfortunately, my experience was far from satisfactory. The most attractive feature about this franchise are the inexpensive prices. But one will quickly learn that cheap (most often than not) doesn't equate to "good". The most glaring issue was the deceitful misrepresentation of swai as "catfish". It's easy to be tricked by the outside of a golden brown fillet on the side of the building and the 5.99 price tag adds to the appeal. The texture and flaking of the breading however presents a stark difference. That difference in taste and texture was immediately apparent, leaving me feeling misled and disappointed. Honestly it also left my stomach a bit upset afterwards. I also ordered the lemon pepper wings. It was a cheap menu item but was sadly old, overly seasoned chicken. You would've thought the grating lid on the shaker accidentally broke when preparing the plate. Fries were very greasy and also had slightly too much seasoning salt. In an establishment that prides itself on seafood, personally I find such lapses in quality and honesty unacceptable. Masons Seafood failed to deliver on both taste and trust, making it a regrettable dining choice. Although it is a DFW staple for quick eats, I do not recommend. read more

Waited patiently for me and my friends food & Masons did not disappoint! Fresh and tasty Lemmon pepper shrimp with a kool aid to accomodate it and the fries were seasoned to perfection just like the shrimp. Customer service was over the top, the lady at the window waited patiently for us to pick out from there menu, as it was our first time. Definitely won't be the last time! read more

We did an Uber Eats order. So, I am not giving up on them yet. The fish was nice and crispy but didn't have any seasoning to it. There are too many places in the DFW to have fish that has no seasoning. The chicken wasn't anything to be like oh this is so good. It was just chicken. The shrimp, was the same. The Kool-aid taste like sugar water. It was just okay. read more

I wouldn't recommend I have recordings of the guy stating they made the rice every 3 to 4 days !! The owner will not respond to me. I am reaching out to let him know I have been throwing up for 2 days straight after ordering the grilled fish ! I will be reaching out to the health department! read more

Hey Mason's Management Team! Have you been wondering why, at 1:30 in the afternoon there isn't a single car in your parking lot and only 1 car in the drive-thru (me) when the other food places around you are busy? I can tell you from my experience today that it's because of your staffing choices. The lady who took my order today was simply awful. The lack of customer service cannot be overstated. I won't bore you with the whole dreadful encounter - I'll just note the last pathetic thing to happen. When my food was ready, the lady opened the window, while talking on the phone, gave it to me, never said a word and closed the window in my face. Your food is okay, but not good enough to overcome this type of service. People don't return to places that treat them like they're an imposition rather than a customer. I know I wont. This was the location in Duncanville on Oriole St. read more

Great customer service ! My mom and I drove all the way from Plano to try Masons and loved it! Wish there was one in Plano but we will definitely be coming back! They give you a lot of food! Great bang for your buck! The restaurant is clean and organized! Lemonade is the best and my platter was delicious! read more

I loved the quick fast food or dine-in option. I called my to-go order in and food was hot and ready by the time I got there. I had a small cajun wing order and a 2 catfish/shrimp/fry plate. The wings were good and flavorful. The fries came with a cajun seasoning kinda taste, the fish & shrimp was good as far as freshness. The fish could have been a little more seasoned. The prices were very reasonable. It was a little weird that it was dinner time and they were empty. When I'm on the go and want a fast seafood fix then I'll definitely visit again! read more

Went here today because they have some pretty good cheap fish! A little salty but ok for the price and you get alot for your money. Well normally the fries aren't seasoned enough for my taste so today I asked for a little extra seasoning on the fries and ong look what I got! WTF! REALLY! read more

I love this place! They serve good 'ole southern American favourites such as fried catfish, pork chops, etc. And you can't forget about the kool-aid AND lemonade! You will think that you have been transported to a simpler time, on someone's grandmother's porch swing! read more

This place gets three stars because the front counter staff is super friendly and the food is for the most part pretty good. I had to take stars away because although I went through the drive through, they failed to provide me condiments and paper towels. I checked my food before I left the parking lot and thank goodness I did because half of my French fries were Frozen... smh‍ I would t recommend dining in as when I went inside to correct my order the environment was extremely quiet and awkward but I'll definitely give them another chance. read more

Mason's Chicken & Seafood - FaMmoile - Seafood Near Me - Duncanville, Texas

Service was friendly and store clean. However, food bland - no seasoning on the catfish and more breading than fish. The lemonade was sugar water. So disappointed and will not return. read more

This location is in Grand Prairie Texas. The place is clean. The menu is extensive. As a first meal I got two catfish fillets. I honestly hate more breading than I did Catfish in fact if you took the two Coatings of breading from the top and the bottom and put them together they were thicker than the catfish fillet. I'd rather pay more and get some actual fish then pay their price at 5:49 and pay for cornbread batter. For me this whole thing was disappointing read more

I have ordered from them as take out or delivery and their business is getting undesirable. They messed up on my order. I indicated on my order as instructed by them in the pass to order a soda but asked the to substitute it for water because I am a diabetic. They sent me a spite that I can not drink. The instructions were plain and they laughed at me over the phone when trying to get the situation corrected and then proceeded to tell me to write down in the instructions what I want to have done, (although that is what I have done) and when I asked to speak to the owner I was told that he was busy and they hung up on me. I gave them a one because that is the lowest that you can give. Please keep in mind that I paid for the order to be delivered. As a senior citizen I will not order from them again. read more

First time visit was last week. Weren't sure if it was open, but glad we checked. Really enjoyed the fried fish, shrimp and chicken strips. Daughter said they were the best she ever had. Good customer service. Will be back. read more

I was Leary when I walked in and the place was empty but wanted a burger and they had good reviews. Well I would not order a burger from here The patties tasted frozen and old. Not good. The ladies were very friendly and nice. Not an establishment I would revisit. read more

I thought I found me a new place to start ordering my food from for the Super Bowl! Wrong! Tonight changed my mind for sure! I ordered a 40 piece wing meal from them only to be told that when they are busy their phone rings to the Duncanville store. I called Duncanville Mason only to be told that they didn't have my order. The young man in Cedar Hill straight out lied! Apologized when I returned. I could elaborate more, but I want! I'm too through! read more

I decided to give Masons a second chance only to have a repeat poor experience. On 4/21 at 6:24:38 I placed an order at this location. As 3 minutes, then 5 minutes, then 8 minutes, then 10 minutes roll by I hadn't received my simple order. While in line I text the number posted on their drive thru window detailing my experience. After 12 minutes I honked my horn get the attention of the employee advising her that I wanted a refund, which she wasn't able do. She stated she had to "call my boss" to issue a simple cash refund. It took 18 minutes from the moment of placing my order to finally receiving my refund. After texting the suggestion line, whoever is in charge of customer experience texted that it takes 7 minutes for the order to be completed, something I was already aware of, even telling the employee just that same thing before she reached out to her "boss". I asked the employee the name of her boss to which she replied Ahn. I asked her what is the first and last name, to which she replied that she didn't know. My experience was deplorable!!! In the response from whoever manages their suggestion line, I was advised to "call ahead, the order will be ready when you come." I don't understand how Mason's can have the audacity to ask for future business after handling this so poorly. 1, train your associates to advise of food lead times and/or come back to the patron explain the wait, that is just good customer service. 2, empower the associates to give refunds up to a certain dollar amount. 3, realize the first thing management should do when something like this happens is to apologize for the experience, not ask for further patronage. read more

This was my first time going to a Masons. My friend has one in Arlington by her house and loves it, so we went to this new location for lunch today. At first we were the only ones there, parking lot empty. I walked in the doors and felt like I had walked into a night club with WAY to loud dance music. We couldn't even hear ourselves talk...which is crazy since we were the only ones there. I'm guessing that they are still trying to get into the swing of things being brand new. My friends both ordered the same exact meal and got charged two different amounts. I got the chicken strips and fries, they got the cheeseburger deals. Quantity wise everything was pretty big. Burgers looked huge, and I ended with more then 4 strips of chicken (definitely not complaining about that!). The fries were pretty dang good. Cooked crispy with a really good seasoning on them. Strips were ok. I had a hard time believing they were 100% cooked through with a hint of pink lingering it scared me a bit. On the big menu they charge for extra sauces, which I don't understand because the same sauce is complimentary next to the drink machine. The cashier told me that the sauces were all homemade. The ranch was very different. Almost had a pickle flavor to it. It was pretty good. But the BEST part of my meal was the honey mustard. It was Sooo sweet and soooo good. I would go back for sure to eat the fries and honey mustard! I give it two stars based on quality of food and pricing. I think it's way to high for what it is. It's not a horrible place for sure. Just be prepared to spend more then you anticipate to. read more

Tasty food with friendly service and cheap prices. Kind of sad to see it so empty for lunch when it's better than most of the other resteraunts in the area. read more

I was not happy with my food. I ordered the "colossal" shrimp meal. The stimp are butterflied, flattened and OVERLY battered which left takes away from the shrimp itself. read more

This was really good! I called my order in. It only took about 10 minutes for it to be ready. I ordered the fish and shrimp combo. The fish and the shrimp were hot and very delicious. The fries we tasty but clearly were not cooked as the same time as the rest of the meal. They were cold. That, the fact that this location did not have oysters yet and the tartar sauce is very runny and virtually tasteless I gave them a 4. The staff was very friendly and I will go back. read more

My coworkers and I enjoy the fish and shrimp here. Our food is always fresh. They could fry the fish a little crispier but other than that..you should check it out read more

The food was good, the buttery shrimp was not to over flour, dey were a great size as for the fries a little bit overseason, the flyer states it came wit hush puppies which I didn't receive any, nor tartar sauce. I also order the wings they were not jumbo like the flyer makes them to be, but my bf enjoy them and he is picky, next time I will just have to check my order. read more

Worst food ever. Burgers were disgusting. Hush puppies weren't good. French fries and onion rings were ok but we would never eat here again. People were nice but the food was NOT good.... read more

there foooooooood is to kill for omg i love the tenders , pork chops , fish , and alllllll the sauces food is delicious

Great little place. From the outside it looks like a fast food place, which is understandable because the building used to be a MacDonalds. When you get inside, it's not really a fast food place, but it's doesn't fit into any other niche either. Most of it's business does seem to be takeout, but a lot of what they make isn't really practical for a drive through, even though they have one. Whatever you call it, it's a really nice place. I generally go for the catfish. You can get two fried catfish fillets with fries for $4.99. The fillets are large, they are breaded and fried to order, and they are delicious. The fries are standard frozen crinkle cut fries. The grilled catfish plate has one fillet with choice of sides, I generally get the dirty rice. I prefer the grilled plate, but then I prefer grilled catfish to fried catfish, even if it's very good fried catfish. The dirty rice is excellent as well. Never tried the chicken, and it's kind of interesting that a restaurant that has chicken so prominently figured in it's name has so little chicken on it's menu. When I've been there, most people seem to be ordering catfish or pork chops. As for the ambiance, this used to be a MacDonalds. It doesn't have any ambiance. They generally have music playing, and it's generally a bit too loud.Since I always get food to go here, it doesn't bother me in the least. The location can be a bit hard to find if you don't know where it is, but it's worth the look. It's just south of Camp Wisdom on Oriole. read more

This email is in reference to the service received at the DeSoto location at the corner of Hampton and Dalton. This is the second time I have visited this location and had to wait 30 plus minutes to receive to receive my order. The customer service is horrible. When you enter into the drive thru, you are sitting at the speaker for a few minutes before you are acknowledged. Then when something is said to you, there is major attitude. The young girl on the speaker doesn't speak clearly nor does she show a willingness to do what she's being paid to do. Both times I was not quoted a price I was only told to pull up. Then when you get to the window, you are sitting there for another couple of minutes before the window is opened and you are acknowledged. After your payment is received, the window is closed and you are sitting there again. I sat at the window both of visits no less than 10 minutes before the window was opened and I was told to park up front. Another 20 plus minutes go by, and I am watching the people who placed order after me receive their food, before my order is brought to me by a young man with sagging pants and looking as thought he was high. I don't enter the store due to my child was sleep and because I was irritated. I have never seen a supervisor at this location, never. Two of my good friends that live in DeSoto will not visit this location for to the same behavior. I love about 10 minutes away from this location and when I arrived home my food, the food I had been waiting on for more than 30 minutes was cold. All I order was the 6 catfish nugget special. I feel as though, I have thrown my money away. I have worked in the far food industry plenty of times as a crew member and in management and I can honestly say, this type of behavior shouldn't be tolerated. read more

I've ordered from this place before but the last 2 times have been unacceptable. The pork chops were half cooked & just like last time I'm missing items. I called back to have the issue resolved & received the response..."I don't know what you want me to do about it". Is this the way you do business? I can overlook a lot of things but to blatantly disregard a customer who's done nothing but pay you their hard earned money & NOT receive what was ordered & then you refuse to fix it is not acceptable. I will NEVER order from you again & neither will my family. read more

We ordered chicken wings to go for a Fathers Day family gathering. When we got home and unpacked our order I was shocked at how small the wings are. The wings are cut in two, you get the bony wing tip and the meaty part separately. So if you order a dozen wings you are basically getting six. Would be okay if the wings were not so tiny. We attempted to contact the chain and got no response. This place wont last long if this is what they consider fair portions. read more
