    Salmon bites side
    Nicole V.

    I met a friend here expecting to stay and eat but they had all the tables set off to the side. Some chairs were set out for waiting. We decided to Hust go to a park and eat and I'm so glad! Portsmouth City Park is close by and it was a beautiful day. I had the Oyster Po Boy and it was fantastic. The slaw was amazing and the oysters were perfectly fried. I also got a side of salmon bites. They're chunks of fried salmon, the house sauce was fantastic with them. My son would be over the moon if he was there. He loves salmon! I feel a need to work my way through their entire menu.... Can't wait to go again.

    I've been going to chef skip for 5 years and I love their food !!!!! Everything has so much flavor and the quantity will fulfill you every time !!! The service is really great - even when my orders were not delivered correctly I was able to come back in for what I ordered !!!!

    The food here is amazing. I love the little flower that's added to the food. The food is fresh and very filling. You get a good amount for your money.

    I thoroughly enjoyed my meal here. I got it Door Dashed and was surprised that it tasted amazing when it arrived. I ordered the chicken Philly, and it was very tasty. Even the fries were crispy.

    My family has eating here a couple times and recommended the restaurant to me. This restaurant had me questioning my family's palate. The chicken was fried hard even though I didn't ask for it. I believe they fried all the food in the same oil. The shrimp was over seasoned.

    2 orders of fried shrimp. Their special sauce included

    This is another little gem hidden in Portsmouth. It's tucked away right at the intersection of Portsmouth and Airline Blvd, so it's easy to miss amongst all the traffic there. If you're lucky enough to give them a try, you'll see that their menu is simple but perfect and gets the job done for sure. I have a texture complex "CRUNCH". You'll be sure to get this, as most the menu is fried. I'm usually pulled in by the sweet chili 8 Piece Wings, or the fried shrimp. Their delicious. Other items I've tried are the Philly cheesesteak and the catfish.... Both are great. The beautiful orchid used to dress each order puts a huge smile on my face every time. They're surely like no other when it comes to this element. I love them for that! It's not 5 star dining, but took a chance with a friend once. We had a great time with the staff. Give them a try! You won't regret it. In fact, you might find yourself craving them every now and again.

    I was craving for shrimp po'boys this week. So when I saw Chef Skip 757 on Yelp this morning, I decided I want to give this place a try. Chef Skip 757 is located in a strip building around the intersection of Portsmouth Blvd, Victory Blvd., and Airline Blvd. According to their staff, they've been only open for a month and this is their second location. The other one is on VA Beach and they started as a food truck. The first thing that came to my mind when I first came in was the satisfied faces from the customers. I took that as a good sign when I approach the counter. The server's name was Antoinette and she was very welcoming and pleasant. Even Chef Skip (not sure if that was his real name) was very pleasant as well. They were helpful and gave me tips on how I can enjoy my visit in this restaurant. As for the food, I was torn between the shrimp po'boy and the crab cake sandwich. I decided to order the po'boy in the end. When my food is ready, I was very impressed on how beautiful the presentation was. It was very appetizing. Not only was the food pretty, it tasted good as well. The shrimp were seasoned well and is very delicious. Even the the fries was really good. I will probably order an extra of their Chef Skip's House Sauce next time. Overall, I really enjoyed my visit to this restaurant. I highly recommend this place to all those seafood lovers as well. With delicious and affordable prices, Chef Skip 757 is going to be on of my usual places in Portsmouth.

    Felt welcomed when I walked in. The lady at the register was nice and friendly. I got the fish and shrimp combo. The shrimp were delicious the fish was swai it was good too, I like the way the shrimp was season. Comes with some type of mayo sauce it's good I added hot sauce to it. They were out of a few things but that happens. Meal came with fries they were okay. Would definitely recommend and go back. Place was clean and you could see the chef making your food

    Before I begin let me start off by saying that this review is based solely upon my personal…read moreexperiences and my personal experiences alone, so with that being said let's begin!. A co worker of mine's said he wanted some sea food and asked why I was doing for lunch and he recommended this place. At the time I didn't know what I wanted to eat so I said "sure, let's go "!. We walked in and looked over the menu, I was surprised at the variety of food options that were sold here! Sorry I didn't take any pictures because I was in awe of the food options because before I walked in I thought it was strictly a seafood market! I promise I will take some pictures on my next trip so you can see what I'm referring to as far as the menu goes... This restaurant has a few chairs to sit in as you wait for your food. I'm not sure if you can dine in and eat your food or is it just take out. I promise I will get more information on my next trip here!. My co workers and some of the other locals who grew up in this area said they have a bar connected to the restaurant where you can order drinks as well as order food. Remember I was told by the locals who frequent here so I'm sure there is truth to this. Once again I promise I will get more information on my next trip!. I was torn between a whiting fish lunch special or popcorn chicken and fries. I heard my co worker say he wanted the whiting fish lunch special which comes with two pieces of whiting, fries and about 4 hush puppies, and asked for his fish to be fried hard( crunchy) . My co worker also mentioned they have another special that comes with one piece of whiting if you wanted to go a different route!. So needless to say I decided to go with the whiting lunch special of two pieces of fish. I will say my first experience here was a good one, the fish was lightly seasoned and not overcooked and salty!. Seasoned and fried to perfection!. Now I told you some of the best restaurants are located in the hood, or should I say not the best of areas you want to frequent at night if you're not familiar with the area. But these hood spots have some of the best food, now this is the second time I told you not to sleep on these spots! And I know there are hood areas in every city out there, some of us may not feel comfortable in visiting them, if you are you are missing out on some of the best tasting food places, and this is one of them, so put this restaurant on the " I have to try list" if you're ever in Portsmouth, Virginia visiting. I promise you won't be disappointed. So stay tuned for more information about this "hidden hood gem"!!!...

    BUYERS BEWARE: Believe the reviews!…read more I ordered and purchase a dozen of mails final cost $54. The males I received were medium males at best. I called back to the restaurant and was told that they don't sell Jimmy's. So, I asked why I was charged $54. Then, the chase down the rabbit hole began, Like, who took your order (phone), who helped you in the restaurant, etc. Believe the reviews.

Inside is very well done - clearly recently updated and very modern. Music is pretty loud in there but I enjoyed it, my older parents had a little more issues hearing. Service - waiter was very nice and friendly, they have electronic ordering right tableside so if there is an issue or error can be a little difficult to fix! He did originally deliver the wrong food and even when questioned just changed what he called it but it was wrong. Kitchen showed they likely have a lot of new staff. Medium steak came out first and each meal was delivered individually and with a pretty significant time difference. Medium steak was basically rare in the middle, we didn't opt to send it back though we could have. It was seasoned really well! I had the party platter and everyone was really great! My mom also loved her salmon Caesar wrap and my dad liked his scallop basket. Price points were on par for everything but the steak dinner and most of us had left overs. There is for sure room for improvement on kitchen side and be prepared for the auto 20% gratuity after 5pm but overall they have a lot of potential! I hope they can work out the kinks!

The crab arrived dripping in enough buttery spice to qualify as a controlled substance. By bite three, I'd abandoned dignity. By bite six, I was negotiating with my napkin like, "You've been with me this long, don't quit now."
