Went to check out this new place today. Expectations were exceeded! I had the Cod Basket with fries and the wife had the Shrimp Basket with Onion rings. I very much enjoyed the fries, the cut is unique! The staff is very friendly and helpful. They clearly care about the quality of the product. My only complaint is the small size of the cole slaw. We will definitely be back, I think I will try the lobster roll next time.

The cod and shrimp baskets are really good. The breading is light, not like beer batter. The hush puppies are so good! Next time I’ll try the lobster

A pleasant surprise. Atmosphere pretty much fast food like. Service was pleasant and prompt. Fish was fresh, plenty, with excellent preparation. Quite an excellent surprise. They have a bit of a lower cash price, not publicized. Location tucked in back corner of strip mall.

Always a delightful experience! We've been here numerous times since they opened in October as well as their first location on Baymeadows location. The lobster roll basket is always our go-to. Delicious cold chunks of tender lobster meat nestled in a warm soft potato roll. So good that I just had to order another to indulge later. LOL. We also tried the fresh shrimp and fish baskets. Love that the batter is not overly thick, golden to perfection and pairs nicely with their homemade tartar, cocktail and Jack sauces, all with a nice kick! Excellent home style fries cut on the premises and vinegar-based coleslaw comes with the baskets which makes it an excellent meal. Make room for Dori's fresh desserts too! If you are craving chocolate, we highly recommend the Chocolate Treasure. OMG so moist that you'll want your very own! LOL. We also enjoy and highly recommend the Mini Coconut Slices... heavenly with coconut on top and moist layers throughout. *:。゚ (・‿・) /゚*:。゚ Everyone is super friendly and attentive making sure you are 100% satisfied as they stop by to check on you. Thank *‿* you Dori and the hardworking staff for the warm welcome and delicious experience, Rey and I will definitely be back! Food: 5/5 | Customer Service: 5/5 | Cleanliness: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5.

The food was good. However, it was greasy. They say it's made to order but no one asked us how we would like it cooked. We had the cod basket and the shrimp basket, and both came with fries and a tiny cup of coleslaw, but drinks are an extra charge. Even though you place your order, get your own drinks, and get your own food when your name is called, it's like McDonalds and they want a tip (which is up to you if you want). Then, on top of that, THEY ADD A FEE if you use a credit card. Dinner for two was $35 and that was with no tip. That's pretty expensive for self-serve food and the portions were not that big. Seating is limited, and the decor is metal chairs and metal top tables, not very comfortable.

We ordered the shrimp basket and fried oyster basket and were not disappointed. The fries are amazing! They are cut like potato chips so they are thinner than most fries, which I loved. Never had Jax sauce before but it was really good. Definitely try some when you are there. Service was good and the restaurant was super clean.

Very good food, generous portions, reasonable prices. Got babygirl to try the cod sandwich (unexpected hit) I had the shrimp basket, excellent. Little bare bones on the decor, maybe they're going for minimalist. Staff attentive and plentiful, service was very quick. Desserts looked pretty good, we'll save room next time.

The owner is very rude and disrespectful! Keep getting phone calls from this number that are spam. I tried to call as another business owner to let them know what was going on. She got a very rude attitude act like she was better than everybody and stuck up. Poor customer service poor business attitude. So I have now called T-Mobile and added her phone number to spam or fraud phone, spoof numberJust an update a couple hours later. Her husband decides to call me and tries to belittle me put me down and bully me for whatever reason. When I told him the story then he tried to play the victim. Just shows the characters of the ownersYour ignorance is a bliss! When I called I said hey I'm returning a phone call your wife was very rude and everything I said above. You did yourself call back and was very rude. I explained to you or at least try that it was a Spam call it wasn't anybody from your store. Unfortunately you are not trying to listen with your attitude and disrespectfulness! To the point your wife asked if I owned a company. Unfortunately you don't understand what a spoof Call is. So you try to be the victim. Just your response shows people what I had to deal with when I was just returning a phone call I received
