However, I can't say that I always get good customer service because one employee was making very sexual explicit comments to me when I shopped there before. It made me feel uncomfortable and disrespected. I do hope that the staff learn to be more respectful towards their customers because there's a time and place for everything. Thank you Rollie and I hope to see you soon. The catfish was delicious!

They just opened up another parking lot across the street because the amount of traffic that is in out the small lot they had attached to the store. They do have some great clearance deals on veggies but make sure you check them very well because it maybe better to pay full price if you aren't using that produce that same or next day. I bought some tomatoes for a party and was very happy with the price but the party was 3 days away and by then I was having a funeral for my poor little tomatoes and all their friends because they were molded and seeping juice. It was disgusting! I'm not blaming the store they had it on clearance for a reason. I know many people are a fan of the their meats but I'm not I don't like pork chops, chicken, turkey that is frozen and then I pay for the weight of the ice and my meat. I wish I could find a real meat market but I digress. I also like that sell peppers separately so that I can choose which one I want instead of it being prepackaged. Sometimes it maybe a language barrier with some of the employees, but I haven't found one employee from the parking lot to the cashier who has not been very nice each time I shop here. I will be back! Enjoy!!!

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.

WOW! When I say that that means I was impressed this place has every fish and seafood imaginable and it's super fresh and they have a kitchen too! So far I have purchased a few times from the market section and everything is awesome and the butcher guys are real professional helpful and friendly. I am writing today because I finally said let's try the kitchen...OMG! I LOVED IT! I ordered grilled salmon and it was amazing. I also ordered the lobster tail and T-bone steak. The lobster tail was very good but what took my breath away was how delicious the steak was. This place is definitely a Gem. I will definitely be going back and back and back again. read more

The food is always fresh and cooked to order, and they have plenty of options. The service is usually good and staff are polite and friendly. I often joke with the cashiers about smiling if they're not. The best part of this restaurant is that they accept Link (EBT). They'll sell you the food uncooked, which allows you to use your benefits, but you have to pay a $1.00 cook fee if you want them to steam it for you. This isn't a dine in and eat restaurant. You place an order, pick up, and go. However, I could probably eat this every other day.

My only hope and wish: they'd clean the lobby more often and repaint the parking lot lines. You can't go wrong here. Yes, even with the wal inflation we are suffering under this is a good value due to size and costs. They still clean the shrimp well and I tried those spaghetti and never have to have them again. It's just Ragu sauce and sugar or something parallel and that's okay for solks who prefer it. I just don't. Now, I will order them if I am hosting others to round out the meal. Happy eating.
