Holy Shrimp! Best Jumbo Shrimp and Seafood Around From the…read morefirst bite to the last, our experience with the jumbo shrimp and seafood here was absolutely unforgettable. If you're a seafood lover, this is the place to dive into. Jumbo Shrimp -- A Must-Try! The star of the show was definitely the jumbo shrimp -- plump, perfectly seasoned, and cooked to perfection. Each bite delivered a sweet, briny flavor. Whether dipped in cocktail sauce, buffalo sauce or plain, these shrimp were easily the best I've had in a long time. When they say jumbo, they mean jumbo! I don't think I've ever had larger shrimp. We also ordered lake perch, and brought it home for dinner. We heated it in the air fryer and it was just as good as the shrimp! Both were coated in a light breading, that did not take away from the fish, and fried to a golden brown. They have so many varieties of fish, that we will certainly be back again to try more. Final Thoughts If you're craving top-tier jumbo shrimp and seafood with fresh flavors, Frank's does not disappoint. Highly recommended for seafood lovers and anyone looking to treat themselves to something delicious from the sea! They also serve chicken, and have many sandwich selections, that I can only imagine are just as good! Also should add that the owners are so friendly and nice! A small place that delivers big tastes!

The place is difficult to get into the parking lot. Crazy three way intersection and a really tight parking lot. Once inside the place is supper small and very difficult to even stand inside. They are really busy with tons of business though. The service was friendly and professional once you could get their attention to place your order. I had the small shrimp dinner with mashed potato's. The shrimp were small, I thought small meant quantity. The shrimp were soggy and not tasty at all. The mashed potato's were good. My wife had 4 chicken strips with mashed potato's. Her chicken was over cooked and dry. The order took way to long to get. And I actually took the wrong order first and had to turn around to bring it back. The order process is chaotic and the experience was stressful. Sorry, but we will never be back.

The soul rolls are some of the best. I appreciate that they did not put a dusting of powdered sugar on them, although they did have a sugar dipping sauce on the side. The fried catfish was divine. The crust was out of this world. My hat goes off for the collard greens that were seasoned nicely and the sweet potatoes that weren't overly sugary. I noticed they stopped putting in-house dining meals in to-go containers. The sides were in small containers, but hot food in the clear plastic containers before used to make dining in-house feel rushed. They really stepped up their game.

Everything but the "canned " sweet potatoes was extremely salty--and I like salt. 2 big fillet pieces but again the coating was overly salty. Also ordered a side of the fried green tomatoes, mush. Again very heavy on the salt. The tomatoes tasted strongly of vinegar and were like mush with the breading , again salty, falling off. There was a small container of what I assumed to be their version of remoulade sauce which was runny and sweet. This was a pickup order that cost me $104.88‼‼ Fried Green Tomatoes were inedible.

First time, I was starving and grabbed a two-piece meal with shrimp while I was paying for my gas. I was skeptical since it's inside a gas station. That first meal was absolutely fire. The chicken was crispy, well seasoned, and not greasy. And the shrimp? Breaded and seasoned perfectly. Hit the spot completely. So I went back for a second visit just to see if it was a one-hit wonder and nope, it wasn't. I got the exact same meal and grabbed some other stuff to share, and I'm so glad I did. Not everyone can fry chicken. It needs to be well seasoned and fried to perfection and able to stand all on its own, no help from sauce. Bob's Hienies definitely passes the test and is worth a stop. Bonus: if you spend over $30, you get a free car wash worth $20, so that made my trip even better. But that's just my palate, don't take my word for it. Try it out and let me know what you think.

I ordered a 10 piece chicken chunk combo, which was supposed to be $9.75 according to the menu board. It rang up $10.10. OK not a big deal. The chicken was extremely dry and had literally no seasoning or flavor. It was not made fresh at all and needed sauce to even fix the dryness. The wedges were huge and decent. The Dr Pepper was flat. I don't think I would return.

I had lunch with my sister and cousins last Sunday. We decided on The Patio in Orland Park. We've…read morebeen there a few times before and have never been disappointed with the food, service, etc. I ordered the Beef Brisket Plate with a baked potato and coleslaw, it was tender with a fair amount of meat. The Patio is the perfect place if you have a large party because you don't have to argue over the bill because each person pays their own, it's similar to a cafeteria, you just get in line read the menu and order, they will bring your order to your table in my case it was pretty quick, before the others had theirs. There's plenty of free parking including quite a few handicapped spots which was good for our party, we're all seniors. My only complaint is the really loud "chair scrapping" on the floor, it's hard to hear the person talking to you there so loud.

The feel of the establishment gave me cafeteria bbq - sectioned lines, multiple cashiers, and you order with the food being brought to your table. Food came fairly quick. One relative was waiting on his ribs when everyone else received theirs but it finally came. FOOD: It was exactly what I thought because of how it looked. It gave cheap, quick bbq and that's what it taste like. Not saying it was horrible. I ordered the pulled pork sandwich. Appreciated the amount of sauce. Meat was cooked fine. Overall it was what it was. I also ordered a slice of strawberry cheesecake. It was fine. Right in the middle in terms of taste. WELL: If in town I'll return if that's where the people take me but I'm not going out of my way. It was just a place to eat.

I had to add salt, pepper and msg to their clam chowder for flavor and the clams were too finely minced. And finally the house special seasoning for their seafood boil could have much more flavor (old bay, lemon juice, more garlic, etc), the potatoes would have been better if sliced in half, sausage had quite a bit of cartilage,, and I had intact shells still on my headless shrimp which was a bit of a pain. but the broccoli was great because it absorbed a lot of the butter sauce.

It's a smaller space with some seating, but most people probably order their food to go. Customer service was good. I was surprised that my shrimp and catfish combo was almost $20. Although, I will say it included two large pieces of fish, six jumbo shrimp and fries - so it was worth it. Unlike the video I watched, the fish wasn't crispy - it was a bit soggy, perhaps because of the packaging. The basic paper bag didn't quite work. The fish had a good taste, the shrimp was a little spicy and the batter didn't stay on the shrimp. Their mild sauce was fine and I appreciated that they didn't charge extra for it. So, not bad...but also not excellent. I'd give them another try though.

I have had their shrimp, and I must say that I like their crust. It's not so thick that it feels like the shrimp is in a blanket. The fries are even proper crispy instead of soggy. I get a hint of Popeye's from my youth, but without the heavy-handed salt. Everything is cooked to order, so don't expect to get your bag of to-go as soon as you pay. It will be hot, right out of the grease. Food be so good that I don't ever get photos when I go back to the house. One of these days.

It has been a bit now since I visited and sadly was disappointed in my experience. I called ahead to order so pick up would be easier. The staff member was having a difficult time understanding me but we got my order in and everything seemed clear! When we went to pick up our food, we noticed the inside wasn't super clean and they had fans on in both eating areas. The woman at the register helped a couple of others before calling me up so I could pay for our order. There was no confirmation of items just my name. When our food was ready, they were missing the small french fry. She immediately got defensive saying she didn't charge me for it and I could pay still. Another staff from the back came out and also chimed in. I was happy to pay for the fry but everything is made to order so we had to wait a bit. The food here is very good. The wings weren't as crispy as normal but that could have been from the wait. Overall, there could be some service improvements made and better communication among staff.
