I'm a trucker was parked at the TA across the street from this place decided to give them a try. Glad I did had honey b.b.q wings and they were great. Good flavor lots of sauce just the way they should be. The season on the fries was good and coleslaw tasted great and it was nice and chilled. I will be back again food was great guys. Thanks

Been wanting to eat here for a while. I'm a truck driver that comes to the TA from time to time across the street. My first time there was today(02/16/2024), and I must say that it was a terrible experience for the simple fact that I'm 1 man, ordering for 1 man. I told the lady that I wanted a catfish dinner and shrimp on the side. 6 shrimp is what I told her. She rang me up and told me that my total would be $29 and some change, I thought to myself that it was a kind of steep price, kinda too hungry to really care, and given the side of the country and what I order I thought that maybe that's why the price was so high. After receiving my order and walking back to my truck in the wind and cold and in a hurry to get out of it, I sat down to eat, only to find that the silly lady that took my order charged me for a whole catfish dinner AND a whole shrimp dinner. I never ordered a whole shrimp dinner. Just 6 shrimp to add to my catfish dinner. So my assumption is that she's either feebleminded or thought she was slick to get more money out of me. So I guess the point of this is to say, be overly specific when you order here because they will charge you for something you didn't want and leave you with buyer's remorse. The food was good, but not $30 good. I'd rather spend that at a steakhouse with a better atmosphere and more intelligent staff that would have seen that I'm just, like I said, 1 man so there'd be no way for them to assume I'm ordering 2 freaking dinners! Or at least would have the decency to ask before they assumed. Also, my cousin ordered a chicken nugget meal, thinking it would be homemade chicken nuggets, made like they make chicken strips, and come to find out it was store bought frozen food section at Walmart chicken nuggets! Are you freaking kidding me? You mean to tell me that this place is flipping store bought food for a profit at a restaurant? Isn't the stuff you buy at the store "not for resale"? Yet this place, 2 customers in a row on our first visit thought they were slick and ripped us off entirely. We should have just went to Philly Steaks and Lemonade. The food's better there anyway, reasonably priced, and you know what you're getting without any trickery. F, J&J Fish and Chicken! F them up their stupid scamming a$$es!

Food is Delish!! Love the chicken with some mild sauce on the side then some nice hot fries to top it off. Would highly recommend for a quick bite or go for a party platter for the family. Will not disappoint!!

My husband ordered the 2catfish and 3wing combo and I ordered the 3 catfish filet combo. When I got the 2catfish and wing combo it was catfish steaks. Not what the menu said! Then the cook/manager came from behind the counter debating with me. My husband asked him to make him catfish filets since the menu did not specify catfish steaks. He refused and proceeded to go back and forth with me. It was clear that he just wanted to argue and make an invalid point. He finally agreed to make it over. However when my husband got his food he only had 1filet when it was supposed to be 2. The catfish was mushy and flavorless and definitely not worth the price. We spent $32.00 altogether for both combos. My husband said the wings were actually good just very tiny. Will not come here ever again due to the lack of good customer service quality of food.

In all honesty, I stop here every time I’m in Gary, my usual is the catfish nuggets, with lemon pepper seasoning! They are amazing every single time! As far as service, they cook it fresh so expect a small wait time. The cashiers come off as rude but I feel they’re just direct! Overall, I love going there and will continue to come there when I’m in the city!

It’s exactly what you expect at a JJs. Catfish filets with the extra lemon pepper got a good fry on it but not fried hard and dry. Slaw is ?
