Best fish plates in town. Plenty to eat. Fries are great, too. Great, friendly service. Always ready when we get there.

My worst experience in Missouri, the mac and cheese, was horrible. It tasted old, and the turkey chop was fried to the point of being inedible. The bread was old and toasted to where it crumbled. Never again!!

Omg the best Turkey Ribs I’ve had in awhile. They didn’t have what we originally wanted and that was the Turkey Leg but when I say the turkey ribs was worth every dime iSo mean it was. Me and my Husband enjoyed everything about this place from ordering over the phone to the fast and fresh food that we received. We will definitely be back!!!

Ordered food at the food truck while at Pride 2023. Was served 4 miniature chicken wings and a roll for 9.99. I’m looking at the online menu 8pc wings for $9.99. Marking up the price is not acceptable. I also ordered beef tacos and the meat from served cold. I was very DISPLEASED. If I ever see this food truck I will walk past it. I tried to support by never again….In response to your reply, well apparently there’s another company in the St Louis area that has your same name, logo, and food items. To publicly reply with that response, I will definitely not patronize this place.

We came from Detroit to get some turkey bites and turkey chops. They didn't have any at 1pm in the afternoon and didn't expect to have any until the next day. Sent my relatives the next day and the same thing, no turkey. I hated

cabbage is very big and white. Not the kind of cabbage I eat. Nothing is seasoned. Turkey leg was a waste of $17 and whatever cents. My turkey legs you can taste flavor in every bite. Also the turkey leg looked old and tasted old.

I absolutely LOVE coming here! There are not many food establishments that taste like a good soul food home cooked meal but Jive Turkey does it for me every time. My 6 year old son hates the sight of anything green but he eats their green beans with no issues and loves them! My suggestion will be the turkey ribs. You won't be dissappointed.

The food is fire…… when they have some. 8/10 they missing a key component to the meal every time. Last time i tried to get food from there they took my order, I came to pick it up and the door was locked. And they looked at me standing outside like I’m crazy. Food fire tho. They just need some more structure. Has so much potential.
4/14/23Today, the sweet potatoes were horrible!There were no onions and pickled with the fish. The mac and cheese was very cold.The original cook needs to retrain the kitchen staff!

Jive Turkey Eats is a MUST visit for in anyone in the St. Louis area looking for great food. Not only is the food top notch, but the the customer service is outstanding. The lady behind the counter is extremely friendly and helpful. She was very willing and seemed delighted to answer my various questions. Her energy and overall presence made my experience seamless and stress free.

My experience started with me making three phone calls to attempt to place a take out order while making the 20 minute drive to the restaurant. The first call went unanswered, the second call went to voicemail. The third call a lady answered and asked me to hold. I was on hold for the remainder of the 20 minute drive when I pulled up at the restaurant I finally hung up the phone when I arrived there was no one waiting in the lobby and the woman behind the counter was sitting down, talking on a cell phone. After a few minutes of me, standing at the counter, she got off the phone and asked me if I was here to pick up a call in order I told her no and placed my order. I ordered two turkey bites with sweet potato fries the total came to $28. I set an a lobby and waited for over 40 minutes when I finally went back to the counter and asked her did she know how much longer my order would be. I made the 20 minute drive back home open my package to find these dry burnt greasy tidbits that look like leftover remnants that have been sitting around. The fries were still warm and in good condition, the turkey meat was tough, dry and sitting in a puddle of grease. The portion in both boxes were less than a third of the usual portion. So very disappointed my daughter and I had to order pizza.

Today was my first time trying them. TOTALLY DISAPPOINTED!!! First it too long for the food almost an hour , after waiting I get my food and it was like warm so I didn’t understand what the long wait was for…the turkey ribs were the only thing hot on the plate…Mac and cheese has too much seasoning…I ordered 2 of the same plates with different side 1 plate had cornbread the other did not.
