    Fried Chicken tenders
    Gregory D.

    Chicken tenders came out fresh. They looked delicious. In hindsight, I wish I had tried the bbq sauce with it. Probably would've been fantastic

    I've been seeing this huge fish sandwich go viral in the DC area. Whole time good folks are getting it from a spot that I reviewed a while back!! So it was time for me to pull back up!! . Where I am: @claudehavemercyseafood inside of @hellocommas . Location Reviewed: 8661 Colesville Rd., level 3 Silver Spring M.D. . Items Reviewed: STAMP!! Their Fried Whiting Sandwich ($16 a whole whiting battered, fried with a Cajun slaw on a brioche bun). HUGE, perfectly seasoned, a crispy batter, & hard to finish!! STAMP!! Their Seafood Pizza ($23 with shrimp, crab, & salmon sitting in a white sauce). Off the first bite I knew this was a winner!! Garlicky, buttery, with a hefty amount of seafood!! LIKE THAT! Their Catfish Po'Boy ($15.50 fried catfish pieces with lettuce, & seafood aioli inside of a hoagie roll). A well seasoned crunchy battered fish!! Plentiful, & tasty!! STAMP!! Their Salone Wings ($15.50 a west African stew consisting of cassava leaves, tomatoes, palm oil, & groundnuts overtop of fried wings). This HIT different!! Super savory, mild, & tasty!! Not an acquired taste...you should like these!! . Customer Service: On Point!! . Parking: ROUGH on the street, DECENT in the parking garages!! . Recommendations: Get that fish sandwich!! 5 Stars=STAMP 4 1/2 Stars=LIKE THAT 4 Stars=DELICIOUS 3 Stars=DECENT 2 Stars=PASS 1 Star=NAH #Bigschlimsreviews

    Salone Fish Sandwich Combo

    I was craving a delicious fried fish sandwich and I didn't know where to go. I came across this establishment on tiktok and had to try it. Upon arriving the owner was very warm and personable, guiding me through my order. While I was waiting he also let me try an impeccable rum cake he was considering introducing to the menu. There was a dj in the food court providing a great r&b mix. Once I got my food I was blown away. The sandwich was huge. The fish was fried to perfection and well seasoned and the sauce was a perfect pairing. The fries were delicious as well. If in the area, you must give them a try!

    Decent food at Commas Food Hall. We had the salmon tenders which were good but it did take a while for the food to come out.

    My only complaint is the jollof rice didn't taste like jollof to me, but more like a fried rice.

This is our regular spot and Lucy and her team are amazing! Food was fresh, great quality and service from the host to Amanda was exceptional. This is the reason we keep coming back! And yes! I got my tequila shot too!

I was a little worried the food wouldn't be as good because it was so busy, but that wasn't the case at all. We ordered two Combo B (OH SNAP!) and one Combo F (FEELIN' CRABBY). For one of the Combo B, we added an extra 3 lbs of crawfish, 3 lbs of clams, and 2 lbs of Dungeness crab. For each pound of seafood boil, it comes with one corn and two potatoes. The seafood boil was drenched in their ultimate Juicy Special sauce. Their sauce is so good! It's packed with bold flavors and a nice spicy kick (This makes it addicting).You also can't sleep on potatoes and corn! It's soft and sweet which balances out the bold tastes! If you're craving a seafood boil, Juicy Seafood is the place to go! Everything tasted amazing, and it's such a great value. If you're not sure which sauce to choose, just go with the Juicy Special. It's hands down the best! I'll definitely be back for more. Thank you for such a great experience!

Ambiance was vibey and cozy. Our server John was awesome. We ordered the crab and shrimp ceviche, a sourdough/goat cheese/ricotta dish, salmon crudo, seafood stew, branzino, oysters and my drink was yummy too! also got butter noodles for the kiddo, the restaurant was child friendly. i believe my cocktail was called a heartache. Beautiful presentation of the food. Oysters and crudo were phenomenal and i truly enjoyed everything i ate! I'll definitely be back when I'm in the DMV.

The ambiance is great - the interior decor is kind of upscale restaurant mixed with a rustic-Italian vibe, while somehow still feeling casual. The outdoor seating is great too with space heaters and ample seating. Service was kind of spotty, but it was also very busy at the time. The entrees and drinks were where it shined for me. Everything was really tasty with a unique blend of flavors. Dishes tended to be in the upper $20+ range, so I wouldn't classify things as cheap, but it felt worth the price for what I was getting. They also have a Happy Hour menu and special menus that seem to rotate (there was a 3-course tasting menu at the time I was there). Very cool spot and will likely be back again.

    Visited last night to celebrate a few things…read more I have to start with the best part of our experience. Staff ( i wish I got their names at the front) were so pleasant! Alex, our server was AMAZING!!! please ask for him every time! We initially wanted to be at the bar but it was packed! We ended up in a private style booth in the back. The booth offers curtains and the ability to adjust your lighting and music.... lovely bonus. We ordered a lot: Shrimp Cocoktail -9 Crab balls - 9 (wish they were more or bigger...comes with 5) Steak Frites - 8 Chicken - 8 (didnt care the root vegetables but the flavor, overall, was great) Scallops - 7 (great flavor, some were under. The bed of spring vegetables could have been spinach instead...?) Complimentary birthday cake 10...amazing!! We also got a few drinks that I cant rate, but my friends said were great! Will absolutely be back again! ALEX is wonderful and the food is consistently amazing. Kudos to the Chefs !!!

The staff as always is great! They have an all night happy hour at the bar only and the drinks were as I remembered. During the happy hour I stick to the classic martini offerings. My go to is the lemon drop. Love it! Unfortunately the happy hour food offerings were not as I remembered. I appreciate the staff because anything we did not like they took back and removed it from the tab. I did enjoy the wings though. If you are looking for a place to meet a friend for a drink at happy hour I would say come but maybe not focus on the bar bites. Again this review is only for their happy hour. I went this time on a Tuesday and it was not as crowded that night but I know sometimes happy hour can be packed and it's only offered in the bar area.
