We drove over there from Gentry and heard it was a restaurant but we got there was a drive-through. I wouldn't of drove over there if I would've known that the oil fish was fried in was old so the fish we got was brown looking not a nice tan you see in the picture, the fries were good the hush puppies were great. Coleslaw was mediocre, but I wouldn't drive over there to go back to the drive-through ever again.

It’s drive-through only. I have not seen any outdoor seating.My first time here got a very small side of potato salad. Which is decent but I really prefer whole hog potato salad.And the child’s fish and chips with fries and a hush puppy all to come together. And I got to say for a child’s plate this is pretty big. It’s like three of them biggest fish sticks I’ve ever seen in my life. I think I got all of this under $10 which wasn’t bad.I like it. I’m just still deciding if I can eat it. I normally don’t have gluten very often since I react just a bit still. I peel breading off. This is all fried so it’s a little greasy naturally but not overly greasy.If I do OK, I’ll go back. I feel like my taste buds have been off lately, so I’ll give it another try. May like it even better next time.If you are gluten sensitive don’t try here. I knew I was taking a big risk. Yep I got sick later.

I drove through the town and I thought I’d stop by. It was really good! The portions were a good size, I couldn’t finish my food! I got the combo with shrimp and fish. It came with hush puppies, fries, homemade chips, 4 fried shrimp 2 pieces of fried cod and fried pickles. The tar tar sauce was delicious and hand made. There was a tiny wait with it being freshly made, so i appreciate that. I’d love to see something other than fried in the future just to help break up the flavors. Maybe a grilled option or not breaded But when ordering, I was told about other options they’re adding to the menu as well, so I’ll definitely have to stop by in the future. All in all I really enjoyed my stop and hope I can stop by again!Parking: Very limited, like one spot so I parked in the back of the business across the street.

Cute little to go building. No indoor dining. Almost like a food truck only in a tiny house. The food was really good. We had the combo that included 2 pieces of fish and 4 fried butterfly shrimp. The fries and hushpuppies were very good. Will stop by there again.

I was going to go to my local favorite and someone suggested I try this place since it was close to an appointment I had. $16.50 for frozen fish sticks ans floppy chips. I HATE wasting money on bad food so I'll eat it. However, this is a one and done for me. Should have driven a little further for a better meal. Now I'm hungry and disappointed. Also, the girl who took my order refused to tell me what the Kraken sauce was. Wouldn't even describe it! Great job! Also didn't know her own menu items when I ordered half lemonade and half tea which tasted like someone had washed their laundry in nasty water. Big fail.

This was our first time visiting this place. It is a small shack, which didn't appear to offer dine-in, although there is a picnic table outside if you wanted to eat there. We were greeted at our car window by a delightful young lady with a laminated menu. She went out of her way to make sure we understood what the menu items were and didn't rush us into decisions. A pleasant change from some drive through experiences. She was incredibly accommodating with changes and substitutions. For example, with the meals you get chips and fries mix and two sweet corn hushpuppies, plus two other sides of your choice. You can ask for more of the same, 2 extra hushpuppies (a good option in my opinion), extra chips and fries (probably not necessary unless you plan to share a big meal between 2, as the portion is already substantial), and/or mac and cheese, fried pickle chips, potato salad, coleslaw and perhaps some others I forget.Food is cooked/served fresh, so you are going to have to wait 8-10 mins for your fish or chicken. If you are in a time crunch, they are happy for you to call ahead and have your order ready upon arrival.As a Brit, I note that this is not the same as British fish and chips - the batter is not the same and the chips(fries) are quite different, but that doesn't mean that they weren't good!!The fries are really quite delicious and crunchy, they've either been lightly coated or double-fried, either way, they were delicious with excellent texture. They come in a chips and fries mix - crunchy fries plus thick kettle-chip style chips. Again, the flexibility they show is top rate, you can have all chips, all fries, or a mix, which is fry heavy, but with a few chips thrown in.Between us we tried the chicken and the fish. Both were good and did not skimp on size...I think I'll downsize to 3 pieces next time. The chicken had good flavour, neither felt like it had been pumped up with water, nor was it dry. The fish was moist flaky cod served in large strips rather than one single piece (as it would be in England).

Very good food but horrible customer service. I placed an online pick up order and parked on the left side of the building where I was instructed to park in the text letting me know my food was ready. After sitting in the curbside pick up area for 10 minutes I just called and canceled the order. She said my food was ready which I already knew it was because the text told me that. She stated that they just didn’t see my car sitting directly beside the building idling in the curbside parking area.The only way they knew I was even there or left is because I called and told them just cancel the order and put the money back on my card.

What a cute little place in historic downtown Prairie Grove. The coffee was great and the brownies! Wow! There is plenty of room to chill out inside and a cute little patio area. Unfortunately it was blazing hot today. Also have a drive through option. Super friendly and helpful staff.

My fish was over-cooked in my opinion. I believe the grease was too hot. It's probably a symptom of the large crowds that are coming. I'll try it again in a month or so.I see that they're not honoring giftcards that were purchased before the current owners bought the restaurant. That's pretty low. I won't be returning.

Tried this place for the first time. Their fish and chicken were good, BUT their fries are a show stopper. AMAZING. I would stop by solely for their fries!!!

I got the "Tortuga" combo which has fish & shrimp. It was delicious, the fries were fresh and crispy, chips were crunchy, hush puppies were perfect! I wasn't a fan of the potato salad, and the cocktail sauce was a bit spicy for me (I did ask for non-spicy). Overall a great place to swing by and grab some fish when you're having a craving!

Really good food. Ordered online, pulled up to the curbside line, they brought the food out. I was there for a total of about 30 seconds. The Kraken sauce is really good.
