the counter of a restaurant
Michelle J.

I have a feeling that my preference is regional since I grew up in Springfield, MO but I seek out Captain D's over LJS. Captain D's locations aren't as plentiful so I memorize locations when I come across one. On the lobby menu board they only advertise the 3 piece and 4 piece fish dinner with 2 sides. If you ask they do offer the 2 piece for $6.49. I ordered green beans and coleslaw. Their coleslaw is so good. But the green beans taste like they're poured straight from the can and heated up, no seasoning added. On the counter they advertise 6 additional sides that have a 39 cents up charge. The battered fish combos do not include the drink though. As they should, they do have sweet and unsweetened tea available. At this location I really appreciated how clean the dining area and the restroom were.

Fish and chicken dinner...where's the chicken????
Allison K.

I would've given more stars, but my drive through order was not correct and now I'm super grumpy because I hate paying for items I don't receive. Might as well flush money down the commode. My husband ordered a fish and chicken dinner and I got the 2 piece fish dinner with a loaded baked potato. Got home before checking the order. BIG mistake. We had 2 two piece fish dinners, no chicken, and my cold hard baked potato was not loaded. The guy at the window handed out the bag and said 'everything is in the bag.' and quickly tried to scurry off. That should've been the first clue. My husband said 'are you sure? Is there tarter sauce in there?'...and of course there wasn't. There also wasn't any utensils, napkins, malt vinegar...or chicken. There's nothing I hate more than incompetence when it's something as simple as a fish and chicken dinner. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to pick up 2 pieces of fish and 2 pieces of chicken and sling them into a bag. It wasn't busy, so I attribute it to pure laziness and not giving a damn about customer service or retention. Pretty sure we will make the long drive to Long John's next time. It's worth the drive for quality food. Did I mention my baked potato was so old it was brownish yellow...on the inside...and hard as a rock. The fish was ok, but just ok. The hush puppies were the best thing we had. Don't know about their chicken...SINCE WE DIDN'T GET ANY.. Not a great experience and very disappointed in both the food quality and the service. What a shame. Long Johns - please come to Burleson and treat us right!!! My advice: don't eat here. If you do, check your order before you leave!!

See all

Ridiculous prices, $8 for two piece of tiny fish and one side of Cole slaw with overly greasy hush puppies! Quality is a problem these days!

On Thursday, February 12, 2026, I was blessed to be able, to attend an luncheon meeting with some…read more individuals, that I met, at this really nice restaurant, with some delicious food and mouthwatering peach tea. Our waitress, was very nice and she made sure, that we all, had everything we needed to enjoy our meals. The food was cooked hot and ready to eat, that the wonderful waitress brought out to us Since, we were in the restaurant area that is used for meetings, there was no additional, music or any other talking, that was in the main restaurant dinning area, that interfered, with us in the luncheon meeting. The food is really good their, everyone enjoyed their food meal, that they ordered. I recommend, this restaurant and I will be returning.

The food was excellent, but the atmosphere and service felt unusually heavy, which made the visit…read moreless enjoyable than it could have been. Food The entrées and sides were the highlight of the visit -- well‑prepared, flavorful, and worth the price. *Garlic Caper Salmon -- ***** ($22.00) Perfectly cooked, great balance of flavors. *Blackened Rainbow Trout -- ***** ($20.00) Seasoned well, cooked just right. *Iced Tea -- **** ($2.99) solid, nothing to complain about. *Banana Pudding -- **** ($8.00) Tasty, comforting dessert. *Bread Pudding -- *** ($9.00) Decent, but not as strong as the other dishes. *Service & Atmosphere This is where things fell short. The service felt detached, as if the waitress was distracted or simply going through the motions. The overall vibe in the restaurant -- felt unusually downcast, which affected the dining experience. *Would I Return? I would absolutely visit this franchise again, because the food is worth it. But returning to the Burleson location specifically is questionable based on the atmosphere and service during this visit.

As soon as I walked into the building, I was immediately greeted by the general manager yelling…read moreacross the kitchen at her staff, repeatedly screaming at them not to "use the dummy again," whatever that meant. The environment felt very unprofessional and uncomfortable. Most of the employees appeared to be very young and seemed confused and unsure of what they were doing. When Jordan brought my food out and handed it to me, the bag broke and my food fell to the ground. Instead of addressing the situation, she looked at me as if I was supposed to pick the food up myself and go to the back to get another bag and repackage everything. Only after I spoke up did she go to the back, bring out a new bag, set it on the table, and walk away to take a phone call without assisting further. I then asked to speak with a manager (not the GM). Another young lady came out and responded by saying that "some people would have picked the food up and put it back in the bag," implying that it was a personal preference. At that point, I was honestly shocked. The level of customer service and professionalism was extremely disappointing. Overall, the customer service experience was absolutely terrible and left a very negative impression.
