The restaurant was clean, and the food was prepared fresh and with care. I honestly don't have anything bad to say about the overall experience. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is because the wings just didn't fully do it for me. They weren't bad at all!! I'm just used to a certain level when it comes to wings, and my standards are pretty high. That being said, everyone has different taste, so I definitely recommend checking them out and deciding for yourself. Great people, clean food, and a good experience overall.

Food is fantastic. Price is high. Service from Nick (owner) was TERRIBLE…read more I was a long-time (20+ yr), loyal customer up til I was yelled at by Nick because I spoke up about consistently receiving orders much later than promised via online orders. I had placed many online orders for pick-up on my 30min lunch break, to ensure I had proper time to drive to, pick up my food, and quickly drive back from the restaurant. After a few pick-ups took around 20mins after promised time, I was pretty upset. I was told they only start making food once the person is there to pick it up, so I asked what's the point of placing an order online and receiving a pick-up time, when the food only starts to get made once you're at the restaurant to pick up? That's when the owner stepped in (My family and I have had many pleasant convos with him before at the old location), turned red, bunched up his face, and legit yelled at me "What do you expect? Do you want your fries to be cold or do you want them fresh?" (I was taken aback, and responded "I expect my order to be ready at the time indicated"). He told me I could go elsewhere. I get it. I was receiving consistently poor service and was upset when I asked the cashier about timing, so he stepped in to defend his worker. What I don't get is how you can tell a customer to go somewhere else when they're expecting their food at the time promised (or at least within 5 mins...I'm not THAT picky). Perhaps my expectations are too high?

I swear everytime I've gone into a fish place recently they've all been out of catfish, but luckily…read morenot today! This black owned business has above average standing room in the waiting area, two TVs and an ATM with a good amount of seats/benches. Seems like it might've been an old chinese food joint with a few tables, but they opted for a pure takeout experience (which is unfortunately the trend nowadays.) Since it was my first time I thought I'd try both the fish and chicken combo along with the dirty rice. The total came out to be $24 with the wait being about 15 minutes. The staff overall were nice.      After leaving the place and checking the food. I realized that the combo dinner didn't contain a roll and coleslaw like advertised which was kind of disappointing. It did have the fries though. The requested lemon pepper was there, but they also seasoned the chicken/catfish with garlic powder, salt and parsley which is fine. Everything was fried hard, but not dry which creates the perfect pleasurable crunch. The chicken and fish tasted better than a lot of the restaurants in the area with the fish having a lightness to the breading that's sorely missed. Some of the chicken was weirdly tough though as if it was slightly undercooked.      Speaking of misses we have to talk about the dirty rice. Dirty rice is one of those dishes that seems like it either is absolute perfection or an abomination with no in-between. This unfortunately falls into the latter with it not only looking boring with all brown notes, but the initial taste as well as texture being an off putting creamy rancid trip to flavor hell. After a just a few bites my stomach turned which does not bode well for this dish. I have no idea what went wrong here, but it seems like it may have been sitting out too long. Even the smell was a bit rancid. At least it has a good ratio of ground beef to rice which a lot of places skimp on. They also attempted to add in some vegetables like peppers although they are barely noticeable.       Overall Surf's up is a good spot with friendly staff, decent prices, but some issues with quality. My advice is to make sure the cooking temps are correct and consistent. Definitely make sure if food is sitting idle, that it is kept at the mandatory minimum of 140 degrees farenheit to avoid it going rancid so quickly. Also, double check the orders before sending them out or edit the menu if it is outdated.

I had the beef ribs, fried catfish, brisket, and ox tails and my mom the catfish. Beef ribs were great and moist. Arguable the best beef rib I have had but every bbq I been that sells it is also good so to each their own. Brisket was amazing and honestly some of the best brisket I have had. Even after going to places like terry black's, the flavor here was perfect. Good savoring with a little bit of sweetness from the smoke. Catfish was well season, fresh and crispy. And the ox tails while good, I wasn't going crazy for. Decent flavor but nothing I would get again. First time having ox tails too. The only negative was that the meat is more on the fatty side. While that didn't bother me, I know my mom disliked it more and if you prefer more leanness you may not like that. If I am ever in the area I will happily go there again and I pray they don't sell out of all their pork! Service was good. No issues. Overall ambience was nice and if you're worried it is sketchy or unsafe, it isn't. Friendly staff and people.

So when you get 6 wings, you're getting some hefty wings. I tried 5 flavors and my favorite was the garlic and parm. The sauces seem to be better made than the other places, although I think they may need some tweaking, but overall they were good. The main reason I came here was that they fry the wings in tallow, all halal. There is no place better than Chicago. The inside was very nice and clean, but I took my food Togo. I ordered online, which was easy. The owner is super nice and generous. They're from community, which is great. Overall, a great place to cater and get wings from.
