Reviews
This food is outstanding! Real catfish filets, not a filet cut into strips. That homemade tarter sauce is great as well. The shrimp are big and they taste great. It's a small place with no public restrooms but it has 2 drive thru windows. One on each side of the building. There is outdoor seating. This is great.
I gave it three stars for the service I got ignored at the drive thru so when I pulled up I was ignored then the lady comes to the window no greeting just asked what can I get you. Food was ok not like it use to be but they need to work on customer service it horrible, and on the sign it says a drink comes with your order why didn’t I get a drink will not return.
This food is not good at all. It was disgusting. The fish had no taste and had an odd smell. The shrimp fried rice also had an odd smell and taste. I literally took 2 bites out the fish and spit out the rice. It was THAT BAD! I couldn't eat it at all.
I used to patronize the Jewella location a lot when I was in college 29 years ago, when they first opened up. I recently moved back to the area and thought that I would give this location a try. Never Again! The fish barely has meat. It's more hard fried cornmeal than it is fish. The shrimp were fried too hard, just as other customer reviews pointed out. I'll eventually find a great fish place that I like, because this is NOT it.
Got 2 # 20 and the shrimp was spoiled and tasted terrible. Never again!
Food not nearly as good on N. Market as it is located on Jewella Ave. but both serve decent fried seafood and fried rice. Cash only.
Please, if at all possible, avoid eating at this establishment. I was just in the hospital for two days due to food poisoning from eating here. I was vomiting all night, and this was the worst restaurant experience I've ever had. I should have known not to eat here because the place already appears to be disgusting.
Ok my bad. I forgot to take the pic before i started. The smell was so looming. I couldn't help myself. Then i thought let me share because this Actually was really good. I'm genuinely enjoying this meal. The food is fresh and beyond HOT. I even ate the corn bread sticks they were so good.. Bravo I'll be back soon. Thank you...
