    Got side of fried okra, and one of the best I've had. Plus, half pound was $3!!

    WOW !! On a friends recommendation. I gave them a try and holy cow. It was delicious. Got the number two special with shrimp and crab legs with the extras of potatoes, sausage and corn and got the spicy version. If you like spicy, this is what you want ( there also a non/ spicy option). It was delicious and the portions were extremely good. Best thing in these tough times is it was very affordable. Many other items on menu, so we will be back many times.

    Snow crab special

    Stumbled up on this hidden gem! Some of the best snow crabs I've ever had and I'm from Louisiana!!! They were full of flavor and cooked to perfection!! Priced better than the several other places we've already been to. The employees were very nice and friendly!! Will definitely be coming back just for Happy Tails seafood!

    Plenty of space to wait in line to order. Several small tables and chairs to use while waiting for your order. We ordered the sweet Buffalo fried shrimp and loaded fries. The shrimp were PERFECTION!! They were lightly fried and drenched in the sweet heat buffalo sauce. They gave us a side of ranch that was the perfect way to cut the heat and add to the flavor. The loaded fries on the other hand were somewhat off for me. They were soaked in a very sweet sauce, kindof like a bbq sauce, but couldn't tell. Sweet fries aren't my thing. Next time I'll order fries with just cheese. We also ordered a set of eggs. They were totally YUM!!

    This ia a $18.99 ($20) Seafood plater. And its STRIPS

    This is why I rarely eat out. This is from "Happy Tails seafood market 4880 Lakeland Dr, Mobile, AL 36619 This ia a $18.99 ($20) Seafood player. It came with fries which I asked to be placed on side. It came with two catfish filet'. I asked was this correct, she said yes. I pointed to the STRIPS and asked "Two straps come on a $20 Plater?" She answered yes. Well I'm done with Happy Tails seafood market 4880 Lakeland Dr, Mobile, AL 36619.

    Fish and shrimp platter, with egg roll and hush puppies.

    Have had several friends recommended this place so gave it a try. Ordered the fish and shrimp platter, ordered an egg roll and hush puppies as sides. Ok to be honest the fish wasn't my favorite, it was the texture/thickness and I should have asked what type of fish it was, so that one is on me. It was good but not what I personally like, now on to the shrimp. The shrimp were butterflied and cooked perfectly, excellent taste and texture...fresh gulf shrimp can't go wrong. The hush puppies were standard frozen hush puppies, but the egg roll, Oh My Goodness, it was outstanding, wrapped in a spring roll wrapper and fried crispy. I will definitely be going back.

Our query for a seafood restaurant led us here, and at first glance almost decided to leave. The seating was minimal and we had to walk up to the counter to order. While waiting, we realized it is primarily a seafood market and take-out orders for cooked food were the main business. But the reviews were great, so we gave it a try. We were amazed at the quality and quantity of food we got. An order of crab claws and shrimp came with over 40 claws and about ten shrimp, all fried to perfection with the best tasting breading ever! The atmosphere was like old time New Orleans, on the wrong side of the tracks. But relax your snobbish standards a bit, and enjoy your seafood the way it is meant to be served!

If you come to Mobile, you need to try this place! I will definitely come back! (Well when I am in Mobile again. lol.)

By the time we arrived, a bit after 6:30 pm, the chicken and dumplings were sold out. We ordered chicken fried chicken (which came with 2 sides) and a fried shrimp salad, (a dinner-sized) green salad topped with lightly fried shrimp and lots of croutons. While it took a bit of time before the food arrived, portions were quite generous, and the food was tasty. My husband said the potato salad and slaw were both on the sweet side, but he enjoyed them and the fried chicken. Service was very friendly. Payment is at the front counter, and there's a small surcharge for anything other than cash. After seeing reviews of this restaurant on Yelp and elsewhere, I thought it might be a good choice for us. I'm glad we went.

The chicken was fabulous the sides were as expected, only set back is the mac and cheese is not as good as the rest, but everyone needs an Achilles heal, and perfection would just spoil me. Luck was on my side as Chris was our server again, that guy is tops. We had no complaints at all, did over hear a conversation at the next table where he had to substitute pot roast for an entree that was sold out (after checking with the customer for the sub) and he took that off the bill. Customer requested he not because he was so helpful, but he made another excuse and did it anyway. That my friends is why I tip him so well, (he got more on this 43 buck meal than the gal on my 175 tab last night, and she didn't get shorted) he is a super star and makes the visit better just by being himself. I hope his folks know how he is outside of home and are proud. Somebody raised him well. Bottom line, if you are looking for great home style cooking and no dish washing, this little gem is the spot. We used to get take out but with the service we receive why bother washing plates. Highly recommend. As you can see my newly added picture has a bite out of my chicken, I couldn't wait.

    You ever walk into a place and immediately think, "Yep... this is either going to be amazing or I'm…read moreabout to make a terrible decision"? Welcome to Judy's Place. Because this spot is not pretending to be anything. This is full-on, unapologetic dive. And I mean that in the best possible way. You walk in and it's like the '70s, '80s, and a little bit of someone's '90s basement bar all got together and said, "Let's not change a thing." Old banquet-style tables, a bar top that feels like it's hosted a thousand stories, and walls that have clearly seen some things. I loved it immediately. Now let's talk food. The folks next to me were deep into the chicken and dumplings and talking about it like it was a life event. You know that kind of table chatter where you start reconsidering your order mid-bite? Yeah, that. I went shrimp po' boy... and no regrets. Shrimp fried just right. Crispy, flavorful, doing exactly what it's supposed to do. Solid sandwich. The fries... eh, they showed up a little tired. Not terrible, just kind of there. A little cold, a little soggy, like they'd already had a long day. But here's the twist. You don't come to Judy's for perfection. You come for personality. For the feeling that you just discovered a place that doesn't care about trends, doesn't need a remodel, and definitely isn't chasing Instagram. It just is what it is... and somehow that works. Fold this into your expectations. If you need polished, keep driving. If you want real, pull up a chair. It's fun. It's different. It's got character for days. Four stars. And honestly, half the star is just for staying exactly the same all these years.
