The rib bones had an after taste, not a pork favor, something disappointing. My advice to potential customers is order in the evening, most restaurants sell leftover food upon opening until those leftovers are sold out. WE want fresh off the grill food!!! I support black owned businesses but I don't support food that doesn't taste good , and those ribs I was served weren't worthy of any customer.

I swear everytime I've gone into a fish place recently they've all been out of catfish, but luckily…read morenot today! This black owned business has above average standing room in the waiting area, two TVs and an ATM with a good amount of seats/benches. Seems like it might've been an old chinese food joint with a few tables, but they opted for a pure takeout experience (which is unfortunately the trend nowadays.) Since it was my first time I thought I'd try both the fish and chicken combo along with the dirty rice. The total came out to be $24 with the wait being about 15 minutes. The staff overall were nice.      After leaving the place and checking the food. I realized that the combo dinner didn't contain a roll and coleslaw like advertised which was kind of disappointing. It did have the fries though. The requested lemon pepper was there, but they also seasoned the chicken/catfish with garlic powder, salt and parsley which is fine. Everything was fried hard, but not dry which creates the perfect pleasurable crunch. The chicken and fish tasted better than a lot of the restaurants in the area with the fish having a lightness to the breading that's sorely missed. Some of the chicken was weirdly tough though as if it was slightly undercooked.      Speaking of misses we have to talk about the dirty rice. Dirty rice is one of those dishes that seems like it either is absolute perfection or an abomination with no in-between. This unfortunately falls into the latter with it not only looking boring with all brown notes, but the initial taste as well as texture being an off putting creamy rancid trip to flavor hell. After a just a few bites my stomach turned which does not bode well for this dish. I have no idea what went wrong here, but it seems like it may have been sitting out too long. Even the smell was a bit rancid. At least it has a good ratio of ground beef to rice which a lot of places skimp on. They also attempted to add in some vegetables like peppers although they are barely noticeable.       Overall Surf's up is a good spot with friendly staff, decent prices, but some issues with quality. My advice is to make sure the cooking temps are correct and consistent. Definitely make sure if food is sitting idle, that it is kept at the mandatory minimum of 140 degrees farenheit to avoid it going rancid so quickly. Also, double check the orders before sending them out or edit the menu if it is outdated.

The girls who work there are disrespectful, rude, and belligerent. There is no ambiance since there is nowhere to sit for a dining experience. Therefore, the ambiance focuses solely on how you are treated by the staff. As for the food, it's ok, again, for a slop shop it's ok, but because of all of the other issues with staffing, I will never ever visit here again!

I decided to come here on 1/13/24 and try their chicken based off a video on Facebook advertising…read morethem and the positive comments that followed. The prices are super cheap for a good amount of food. This used to be a Seashell fast food restaurant. They conveniently have a drive thru which was great because it was so cold that day so I appreciated that. My order was the 30 piece legs and thighs with lemon pepper (it comes with fries), a strawberry lemonade and a mango lemonade. The young lady cashier who took my order was pleasant and very friendly so that was a big plus. I was anxious to try the food. The lemonades were pretty good, the mango was the tastier of the two. The chicken was a pure disappointment. The drumsticks were the smallest drumsticks I have ever seen in my life! But, the main issue was all of the chicken were way too salty to the point of not being able to eat it. I had such high hopes for this place. I paid a total of $34.13 which is an excellent price for all of that food but all of that goes out the window if you can't eat and enjoy the food. I don't think I will be coming back but again, I will say, wonderful customer service.

The service was TERRIBLE, and the food was mediocre at best…read more With that, it's a bit too pricey for the neighborhood. The locals aren't patronizing the location because of that. How are you gonna sell a $20 burger in East Chatham, when the median income according to the latest U.S. Census is $23,800 (but we know how that goes; "we" don't report as we should, but I digress...)? Hell that's below the poverty line. Yes, it's great to have better restaurant offerings in the inner-city, but you need to take into the account the income level of those closest in proximity to your establishment.
