Shark's Fish & Chicken on 5th offers a mix of experiences. Some find the food good, especially the tilapia chicken combo with flavorful sauce. However, others complain about long wait times and disappointing chicken quality. The drive-thru can be tight, but the atmosphere gets a pass due to the location. Customers have mixed opinions on the service, with some praising the fantastic service, while others find the staff, particularly a short guy, to be rude. The restaurant is a popular choice for family gatherings, with customers returning year after year for the terrific food. While the food is generally good, some customers have concerns about the quality of the fish, which can sometimes be undercooked. The restaurant also charges for extra sauce on the fries, unlike some other local establishments.
