Red Snapper - Red Snapper ,Hyde Park 2 piece catfish fillets !!BOGO free. - Fast Food Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Good service! Food is always amazing cooked fresh! I wish they had a better way to seat customers. It gets very crowded in there super fast.

The Gyro meat is cheap and will make you sick as a dog, the workers are ghetto and unprofessional, have attitudes.

Ima be honest I love getting food from here the staff is always nice and they take care of me which made writing this review difficult but this has to be said for the health of others, I went in there to get some food a week ago and one of the mexican cooks who was slightly overweight with bad teeth was using his phone with the same gloves that he is touching peoples food with i just found that disgusting honestly i'll still eat here but that just has to be said so it does not happen again especially when you can see directly into the kitchen and I worked in fast food before its not hard to take your glove off then use your phone and put a fresh glove on thats all im asking. read more

I came in here because I received a coupon for a BOGO of their philly steak. I had a great experience ordering from their kind associate. The food was ready as quoted in 15 minutes. I'm glad I came here. Also the restroom sign says out of order and the associate let me know it works just fine. Phew read more

Red Snapper - Daily Specials - Fast Food Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Food is good and the service is good. Great when you want what you are not supposed to have.

It is a very popular take out place. Their menu prices are incredibly low!! The quality of food is great but don't expect any fancy ambiance. I would strongly recommend. read more

Be very careful eating here, especially if you're not from the area... the amount of food they give you, and especially the people they got inside. You're gonna wanna come back the second that food hits your tastebuds. You're gonna become addicted and be very sad when you leave for a while it'll be all you think about. Every time I come to Chicago this is my new go to. The chicken is to die for. The people are friendly and know how to hookup the plate. They know what they're doing. 11/10 read more

Before you order, check to see if the kitchen staff is wearing gloves. I refuse to get the coleslaw because when they scoop it into containers, the guy doesn't use gloves read more

Ordered Wings on uber eats for pick up.... They ready in under 10 min and they were perfectly seasoned and fried.

This was my first visit and I'm Not impressed! The chicken philly was horrible. I upgraded to a combo but I didn't get it. No fries and no soda. We waited almost an hour fit our order. read more

Red Snapper - This was the worst chicken Philly ever!! Not very much seasoning, bland!! Don't Do It!! - Fast Food Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Idk why there are so many bad reviews. Everything I've gotten here been good. They were better when they first opened but they're still good. I get the gyro more often than anything. They have specials too for fantastic prices. Good amount for the prices. read more

Great spot for fish and gyros. Nice atmosphere and area. Walking distance to lake and dieting Hyde park.

the food is always decent , their attitudes are not however. I received 2 Uber orders of hot wings , I asked for ketchup and forks .. simple right .. I received neither , I asked for light bbq sauce , wings were swimming in sauce and when I call to state this the girl was rude like she spent her money .. professionalism is lost in the sauce these days uh? sad ... read more

Ate dinner here tonight and it was great as usual! Hubby had Philly Cheese Steak with Fries and Sweet Tea. I had a Grilled Shrimp Salad with Zesty Italian Dressing. I LOVED IT!! The salad had the option to add/omit/light items in the salad. It had a spring mix, sliced and cherry tomatoes, chopped pecans, pickles, onions, cranberries, cheese. It was delicious!! read more

Not that I was expecting the world, but how can you mess up nachos. I'll tell you how... 1. Stale tortilla chips 2. Cheese on the bottom 3. Bland steak 4. 5 jalapenos 10 bucks wasted. read more

I bought a catfish dinner this evening. I had a 4 piece dinner. Only 2 pieces were edible. The other 2 were fried or refried so hard that the inside was brown and not white and flaky. I did take a picture, not sure if I am able to add it. I spent $16.31 for my meal. :( read more

I use to love their food ordering once a month to support small businesses but to give me molded food your taking my kindness for granted

this was a let down. I ordered a jumbo shrimp and got deep fried flat shrimp; I also got cheese sticks that tasted as if they was dipped and fried in salt but hay the fries was golden brown :-( this isn't the first time the food from here was bad. read more

What in God's name is going on here??? Rude staff(the cook seemed sympathetic and polite) long wait, food was disgusting and old/held at temperature for far too long. Was told that they don't have a public bathroom when one was clearly in sight, just blocked off by rope/wet floor signs. Red snapper was the last man standing in the neighborhood tonight and I'd have to say, I'd rather starve than touch their food, even something as simple as French fries ... read more

About those delicious Jumbo shrimp of years ago...Fastforward to today, seems like the "jumbo" shrimp are MEDIUM at best! Disguised inside of JUMBO CRUST/BREADING. Undercooked breading at that! And the baby shrimp inside seemed like cooked shrimp that were re-cooked/fried. Rubbery, inedible, sub par trash. Won't be back. I Already have my refund. You should be ashamed of trying to pass this off as Jumbo Shrimp smh. The whole thing went in the trash. I WOULD NOT eat here if I were you! read more

2 stars because the food is good could be 5 stars if the staff wasn't so rude I had placed an order there was a discrepancy in the order & the rude employee proceeded to hang up on me I don't know who the owner is of this location but your employees need to be retrained on good customer service being polite & having some manners! read more

I was pleased to have a great lunch. I've walked in and out plenty of times without getting food from here and I really didn't know what to expect based on the reviews. I ordered a combo with chicken wings that tasted well seasoned and jumbo shrimp that actually had a whole shrimp instead of a big piece of fried batter with a kidney sized smushed shrmip. The shrimp was fresh however only one shrimp was deveined and butterflied. I've seen many people eat shrimp with the vein but I was taught to remove it so this stuck out to me. The chicken was not greasy or fried hard. The fries was good, coleslaw good, bread was slighly toasted (which I'm not used to and prefer cold) but it went well with everything else. Also, the cashier was pleasant and professional and I know I will be going back. read more

I was with a group and we decided to give this place a shot. If you're lucky you can get one of the free parking spots in the little lot they have. There is also street parking. The place was empty when we went for lunch. Not a huge seating area, but a decent amount of space to eat. Two of the people I was with went the fish route and get the pearch combo and the catfish nuggets. Both throughly enjoyed their meals. I was a weirdo and went with the Italian Beef, but it was really good and could rivial some of the spots I normally go to. Very reasonable prices and I will be back next time i'm in the area. read more

What have we learned today, boys and girls? 1. If you order Red Snapper from Uber Eats...itll be at your doorstep in 25 mins. 2. This rating is really a 3.75. Food is pretty good...but it's still greasy ish. 3. I'm eating too much crap. Yelp is gonna have to offer 30% off if I check in at a cardiologist's office at this pace. read more

Nice small, still brand new facility in the center of Hyde Park. I bought the Chicken Pita combo, what a great choice! Everything cooked right, the pita was soaking tearing apart from mayo or whatnot but long as I can enjoy majority of the sandwich I love it. Best Chicken Pita I've had so far. I will try the fish next time. read more

Red Snapper - Chicken Pita combo - Fast Food Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Management needs to curtail the staff. Went in around closing and called it in and they hadn't dropped the food. The order takers and cooks did not have on masks, (all but 1). Not attentive to the order, and a lot of horse play going on. The cooks didn't drop the order for another 15 minutes after waiting initially for 20 minutes. Again more horseplay around and reckless ness with no masks on. After 55 minutes I received my food, and then the staff do not know their own inventory. Explaining which drink I purchased was another 5 minute ordeal. No management on site, and just downright lazy. The kids taking orders were too busy flirting with customers and not paying attention to the obviously other irritated patrons waiting for their food. Good food but do better. read more

I was in an experimental mood one day and decided to have dinner at Red Snapper. It was a mistake. Since it was my first time there, it took me awhile to place an order and the person at the registrar made fun of me for this. That was okay, but that's not the reason I'm giving it one star. I'm giving this place a one star because the food was actually inedible. It was so overly salted and greasy that I actually couldn't eat it. I had to get dinner somewhere else. That's 15 dollars I'm never getting back. read more

The food was good. They're like an upscale sharks. The food was fresh too. They're pricey tho in my opinion. An Italian Beef sandwhich was $8 and it didn't come with fries or anything else! So yeah had it not been for a Boston friend being in town wanting to taste Chitown food I wouldn't have gotten it! I won't be running my happy ass back anytime soon! read more

came here for lunch and the cashier ate food while taking orders at the cash register. Then while people are waiting for their food the same cashier who also hands you the food is standing by the food station STILL eating! Damn, either give this girl a break so she can eat or let her know that it is in poor taste to stand there eating while customers are waiting a long time for their food. Eventually, you begin to wonder if she is eating YOUR food. oh yeah, the chicken was not good either. read more

Extremely slow service this place used to be great but now the cashiers have horrible service and the guy that's supposed to be cooking the food spends most of his time watching tv on his phone rather than cooking the food ....last time coming here for sure read more

This is Chicago. There are thousands of small fish and chicken restaurants so, to be successful you can't really have average food. Let alone bad food. My go to at these kind of restaurants is to get chicken and fish combos. The chicken had a weird taste and the fish wasn't very good, as soon as I picked up the catfish the entire coating fell off. If you're in the area craving fish or chicken, I'd recommend going to one of the other restaurants in the area like Sharks. read more
