Jj Fish & Chicken is a popular spot for traditional soul food with a large selection of dishes and drinks. The friendly staff provides great service, ensuring orders are fulfilled accurately, especially for large orders like 100 wings for parties. The restaurant's fried Tilapia, paired with Coleslaw and Tartar Sauce, is a standout dish. The chicken tenders are highly praised for being "off the chain," and the homemade peach cobbler with vanilla ice cream is a favorite among customers. The staff is very kind and accommodating, with handicap parking and door assistance available to make everyone comfortable. The restaurant also offers a convenient texting system for ready orders and features a bar-type seating area, making it a great option for a satisfying meal. Many visitors enjoy the food so much they eat there every day, and families, including young children, find it very kid-friendly and enjoyable. The fried catfish, described as the best fried fish with a light, crispy breading and a clean taste, has impressed many customers and is one of the favorites. Customers appreciate the clean taste and the care taken by management and kitchen staff, promising to return soon to try more dishes. The restaurant is also noted for its large selection of food, including pizza and spaghetti, which many consider the best in Waukegan. Despite being in a neighborhood that may not feel the safest, the excellent food and attentive service make it a worthwhile visit.
