Let me start by saying I love black owned businesses! I've been living in the city my entire life and this my first time actually trying this place to my memory and it did not disappoint! Don't let my pictures fool you, those were taken in the middle of me eating and I knew then I had to leave a review! The spaghetti is tasty and the shrimp are really seasoned! The service is pretty quick and efficient, I liked it! The ambiance is pretty chill, I enjoyed seeing all the articles about Mr. Haire and even the memorial area they have set up for him it was really touching! I will surely be back to eat again!!

The best shrimp at both the brick and mortar on 74th & Vincennes and at every event there was a Haire's Food Truck

For the second time, the shrimps were terrible!!! Both times they taste liked they were cooked in old oil. My friend went in and was out in less then five minutes that was a red flag for me. Never again will I patronize them again!!!

Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the food here & I'm not for bringing down any Black Owned Businesses. However, I felt totally disrespected by whoever the lady was who damn near refused to sell me 2 beverages. Upon getting my food, I was otp with my Mom, who decided she wanted a pop. I stood patiently and waited for someone to come back to the register. I asked the guy in the back what kind of pop he had. The lady in the back shouted there wasn't any. The guy said there was pineapple and Pepsi. Then told the lady I was at the window waiting to be rung up. She then started yelling about how it was "over with"....she then proceeded to fuss about "her rule" stating the next time a customer has paid, they're not allowed to purchase anything else. I was very upset & paid for the pops because my mother wanted it. Once I got inside my car I was fuming...I'm a paying customer! I wasn't someone begging for free items. I both paid & tipped for my food. Very disrespectful! I'd rather spend my money in my neighborhood with black business owners than to spend my money with 'the others'.....Next time my momma gon be drinking water. The food was excellent, the original cashier, very pleasant, the guy who did the hand off. Awesome. I was spoken to rudely DIRECTLY, but that lady could have waited until there were no customers in earshot to decide she didn't want to sell me beverages.

Ordered a large bomb bag. Planned to order a large shrimp dinner but they were out if spaghetti and I didn't want fries. Best shrimp and cocktail sauce I've ever had in my life!

Freshly cooked to order courteous staff and very clean lobby; Accepts Apple Pay. We didn't try the sides this time but we will return for the LARGE bomb bag w/sides! Good choice

The customer service was terrible. I was told that my order would be ready in 10mins. It took 40mins for my order. And I was offered absolutely nothing for the inconvenience, not even an apology.

Never had a bad bag !!! You will know what i meant by this. The shrimps are lightly bartered to perfection If ever on the south side not far from the Dan Rhyn and 75th St. stop by and grab a bag.
