This truck is amazing! My husband and I have been craving catfish and we found this place. Highly recommend the catfish and all of the sides! All hot and fresh, reasonable prices. Looking forward to going back!

This is my favorite place to get food. I’ve tried the perch dinner, pork chop dinner, bbq dinner, fried okra and mushrooms. Everything is delicious, well prepared and hot! The proprietors are friendly, polite and helpful. Definitely a favorite ? ??

Delicious! IF you're lucky enough to catch them when they are open. Knocking off one star for no regular business hours

I decided to visit this establishment for the first time after my appointment because I had a strong desire for some fish. The proprietor was very friendly and courteous, taking the time to answer any inquiries I had. I placed an order for the Perch dinner and added two chicken wings, and everything was prepared fresh. Upon arriving home and sampling the food, I was thoroughly impressed with its quality. The chicken and fish were cooked to perfection, evoking a sense of nostalgia for my grandmother's cooking. I intend to return in the future to explore additional menu items. I highly recommend giving this establishment a try.

Best BBQ in town! The greens are a must. Porkchops and ribs are both fire! Fried mushrooms are incredible. Corn bread is SO GOOD!!!! Everyone was super friendly too. 10/10 will be returning. ‼️‼️‼️

I've never eaten good ribs here til now. I'm from Cleveland and there are a plethora of food choices in that big city. I would drive to Cleveland when the craving hit. I've tried ribs in the area and it sucked!!!!! Finally I don't have to make the trek anymore. I finally found a place who knows what they're doing and has respect for the ribs!!! Lolol. I found out about Seasoning King from his wife! First I thought she was selling the speal until I actually was able to go and man oh man!! This is it!!! Ribs are tender and has the pull that you look for with ribs. Not falling off the bone! (Respect the rib lol). The muffin is perfection and sweet. The baked beans are excellent and seasoned with beef. Mac and cheese is off the chain. Creamy, yet firm. Actually baked, not runny, fake cheese sauce. My generation grew up eating soul food, not sushi and Chipotle. I will definitely be going back. No more 20 miles of driving. Thank you King and your Queen!!!!!!!

Ok, so I had to give "Atmosphere" 5 stars so I didn't bring down the rest of the review BUT c'mon now....it's a food truck so, the atmosphere was my dining table when I got home and I ain't gonna lie...this place is 3 stars, maybe....ANYWAYS, I've driven by The Seasoning King several times in the few months I've lived here and hadn't stopped. Today I did and tried the Fish Holla (two pieces of tilapia with fries for $5). Let me start by saying you ain't gonna find a deal like that no place these days. Then let me tell you you ain't gonna find tilapia fried this good anywhere either. Cooked juuuust right! Nice firm breading, and still moist, even on the thin part of the fillet. I had them put lemon pepper on it, and it was 100% delicious. Then, since this was my first visit, they gave me a sampling of their mac n cheese, collard greens, and baked beans. First, the mac. Oh my lord the mac.....BEST I HAVE HAD IN YEEEEEEEEEEARS! Like I can't even remember the last time I had mac n cheese that good. I will be going back JUST FOR A SIDE OF MAC N CHEESE (when I left a woman was getting an order of just fried okra and I thought it odd; now I understand). It was creamy, with a bold cheddar flavor, and yet the noodles weren't mushy at all. *chef's kiss* PERFECTIONThe collard greens. Very good. Nice and tender, and a hint of bacon or ham in the broth, but yummy either way. Not sure, but they almost taste like they're cooked in the smoker. I know some other places that do that, and these have a hint of smokiness to them. Definitely worth getting as a side. And finally, the baked beans. I HATE green pepper in baked beans. Always have. Until today. When I looked in my sample I saw a bit of pepper and thought "oh well, the rest was good". Then I took a bite. I still tasted the pepper, but for the first time, it balanced with the other seasonings in the beans. Kind of like when you have a good Philly Cheese Steak; the green pepper works as part of the whole flavor. Same here, the pepper didn't over power but rather worked in harmony with the other flavors. Not my favorite baked beans of all time, but I would definitely have to put in my top 3 for no other reason than they did what no one else could do and that is make green pepper work in the recipe. I will definitely be getting them again.If you see the Seasoning King trailer near you, walk up and get yourself SOMETHING. You'll be glad you did. Wait, GET THE MAC N CHEESE! Then get something else to try since it's all good. BUT GET THE MAC N CHEESE!!!!!!!!!
