Most Disliked
Some customers have mentioned occasional wait times, particularly during peak hours when the restaurant may fill up quickly. It's suggested to call ahead to ensure minimal delays. A few patrons found the ambiance a bit too casual for their liking, preferring a quieter dining experience. Others have noted that the occasional lack of available seating can be frustrating during the lunch rush, especially on busy days like Monday. Still, most agree that the delicious food more than compensates for these minor inconveniences.

The pictures say's it all! 20 pieces of chicken, triple lemon pepper, large sauce and wrapped very well. You may have to wait 15 minutes,I recommended that you call before coming but it will be worth it since it's made to go and because of that it's hot and fresh.

I have no issues with this establishment. I have ordered and delivered food from here. The food comes in a timely fashion, and every thing is delicious. It's a great option if you don't want to wait forever for the slow McDonald's across the street. Very nice.

Wasn’t in the mood to prepare the full holiday spread this Christmas, so I was delighted to get an ad in the mail for this jj’s location for holiday catering & deals. I’ve always preferred and recommended this location although I’ve never ordered more than just a dinner meal. I placed an order for over 50 pieces of catfish as they had a deal: 20pc for $20 which was awesome. The management and employees provided great customer service, great communication, and a contagious holiday spirit even though they were spending the holiday on the clock. The quality, size, and taste of the fish exceeded my already high expectations and I also received a courtesy call to ensure that I was satisfied with my food and if my Christmas Day was a good one. I love this jj’s location and I wish they were all operated the same as this restaurant location. The store was absolutely spotless and well decorated. Definitely will continue to patronize and recommend!!!

Food was good, the fries were kinda skimpy though, but they definitely made up for it with the amount of fish I got. Would recommend. Make sure you call ahead to order since the food is made fresh (I think)

First time here. Food was cooked fresh, made as ordered and very good. My mother-in-law told me to remember how to get here 😆that's a 10 star review! 😆 They just have to fix the door.
