JJ Fish & Chicken - American Near Me - Lancaster, Texas

I can truly appreciate how their food is made when ordered especially any of the fried items versus other chicken spots that usually keeps a certain amount of fried food cooked but kept warm under a lamp or in a steam table . And not that I'm complaining because I can understand fully why that's done when certain items are high in demand. I'm just simply acknowledging and appreciating that JJ fish & chicken will have you wait to get fresh out the grease. This was not my first time at this establishment. However, it was my first time having their fish . I ordered the fried whole catfish on the side which it was explained and encouraged that I get the meal because the price wouldn't change . To me personally, that's great customer service to encourage your customers or even just let them know about the price so that they can better make a decision and moneys worth . I also orders the 5 piece tenders meal and the 4 piece whole wing meal. All came out fire hot and you could smell the fresh grease and seasonings through the tire tight bag. The crunch was perfect on everything that I bit into. Another thing that I noticed and appreciated to the fullest is how they don't fry all their foods in the same cooking grease. it was nice to eat my chicken and it not have a hint or seafood attached to it . You can tell about people frequent there , just by the number of people I seen come in there, during my 30 mins wait . The cashier was really sweet and fast . I watched as she would jump from register to register making transactions at the same time, while taking walk in orders , pick up orders , check on orders and answer the phone and get over the phone orders. She did so nonstop within my 30 mins wait and did so so effortlessly and so kindly. Another worker, maybe he was the manager or the cook would often come out and help her get the orders out accordingly. It was really a simple but yet great experience . The fish was so good to me that I will be back to try their other types of fish. On the Menu I believe I saw whiten, tilapia , ocean perch, buffalo, and different cuts / pieces of catfish. I highly recommend this lil hole in the wall fish and chicken shack. read more

My mom and I have been dining at JJ Fish & Chicken in Lancaster, Texas, since my high school days, and it remains a favorite spot for satisfying comfort food. Their fried fish is consistently good, with generous portions that ensure you leave full. The rice complements the main dishes well, adding to the overall enjoyable experience. read more

Best to call ahead when getting food on the weekend. The wait is long if you don't call the order in ahead of time. Food was good

STOCKTON LOCATION I heard so much about this franchise. I had to try the fish. I went to the Stockton location last week and found the Buffalo fish fantastic. I called my immediate family and told them of this discovery due to our love of Buffalo fish. My mother request 2 orders for her 83rd birthday on May 28, 2022. I proceeded to acknowledge her request and went on May 28, 2022. I ordered 3 large orders of Buffalo fish which came to $49 and some changed. I tucked the orders in an igloo due to the long ride to my mothers. Once at my mothers, the orders went into the fridge. Later in the evening we went to eat and found the fish to be unrecognizable. Was this Buffalo fish? The pieces were so thin, we thought the orders had gotten mixed up with someone else's. The pieces looked like fillets. We have been eating Buffalo for a total combined total of years of 185 years. What was this? My mother was upset and dismayed. For almost $50 dollars we received maybe $20 worth of fish. Speaking with Mike (manager), he informed me, "this was the new product sent from the suppliers". He also stated, it had been brought to the that attention of the owner. Well, I believe this information should of been shared with the customer when ordering. I AM SO DISSATISFIED! I THOUGHT, I HAD FOUND THE FUTURE PLACE FOR GROUP LUNCHES, FAMILY GATHERINGS AND GOOD BUFFALO FISH. I FEEL CHEATED! read more

JJ Fish & Chicken - BUFFALO FILLETS? - American Near Me - Lancaster, Texas

See all

The staff were friendly. The restaurant appeared to be clean. My wings were fried too hard and dry. The coleslaw was too soupy.

They make you pay extra for a sauce I ordered 10 piece wings & got no sauce ... weird This is the only JJ's that does that. I've been going to JJ's since I was 12 years old and never once have I paid for a sauce with my wings got the nerve to give me ketchup who eats ketchup on chicken.. Wisconsin WOULD NEVERRR read more

A go-to for gatherings and parties. Everyone looks forward to JJs when we host get togethers. Best wings ever!!

Whole catfish is awesome, the fillets are good. I see lots of people ordering the wings so that's my next order.

I'm giving them three stars because they had really good customer service. They were very nice, and professional. I didn't give five stars because I feed a family of 5, we love fried catfish but unfortunately that's not what we got. I'm not sure what kind of fish they use but for $70, I should be able to post a raving review. The dish was thin, and crunchy. Very disappointment and will not be going back. read more

Always busting!! I love eating here. The food is always seasoned and the mold sauce is great !

I could be biased but Im from Houston AKA The Fat Capitol of the United States. Why are we called that ? Because we have a lot of Overweight people because our favorite pass time here is EATING!!! Which means we have restaurants everywhere, food trucks everywhere!! I was totally underwhelmed after eating here. Maybe this was an off night IDK but the young lady at the counter seemed as if she didnt want to help or answer my questions. Then I get the food and its SEASONLESS No Thank You Hard Pass !! All i got was fish, shrimp, and 2nd party cold cake. The best thing about the order was the cake which wasnt that great. The batter on the shrimp was terrible (which is why i said maybe it was an off day.) Either Way I will not be returning, yes it was that bad. read more

JJ Fish & Chicken - $10 fish/chicken combo. I chose 2 fillets with 2 steaks - American Near Me - Lancaster, Texas

Should have known better. Tried the combo hot garlic sauce and it was overcooked, which made everything a bit mushy. Aside from a bit of heat the sauce was just a muddy mix of bland flavors with no sign of any garlic. I wouldn't be surprised if it came out of a can. The fried rice was as pathetic as others have commented with way too much soy sauce and just a few peas and carrots that most certainly came frozen in a bag. The egg roll was simply inedible. Also got some onion rings on the side, which had far too much breading making the onion and the inside of the breading a mushy paste rather than crisp and firm. And the breading was completely devoid of any seasoning, even salt. At least what they lack in quality is made up for in quantity. They packed the box full and it was noticeably heavy for having onion rings in it. And if that weren't bad enough, the prices are too high for what you get. The ONLY thing that saves this from being a one-star review is that I didn't get sick eating it. read more

The whole wings are cooked after ordering and the fries as well. Everything is always fresh they remind me of the chicken my grandmother used to make. read more

Tried this place out and was glad to see they had a lunch special. The sign said 1pc catfish and 6 shrimp, everything was fresh and hot but I soon found out when I bit into what was supposed to be catfish wasn't. I wanted to give them 5 stars for the customer service and the freshness but, I was disappointed with the false advertisement about the type of fish. read more

JJ Fish & Chicken - Lunch Special: Supposed to be 1pc "catfish" and 6 shrimp - American Near Me - Lancaster, Texas

Great fish spot. The catfish and buffalo fish are wonderful! Enjoy every time I order. Enjoy!

I tried JJ Fish for the first time today. I got the catfish lunch special. It was horrible.! I don't know what kind of fish it was but it was NOT catfish. It was so bad I had to throw it away. HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE FOOD. The only good thing about the place was the nice, professional young lady working the front read more

Absolutely perfectly fried wings and fish! Also, seasoned just right and not too salty. I've been to this restaurant several times as well as the other location and I've never been disappointed. Also, I appreciate the fact that they do not fry seafood in the same oil / basket as the chicken or fries because my daughter has a severe seafood allergy. There's plenty of room to sit in and eat but we usually call to order for pick up; service is always fast and efficient as well as friendly (especially the owner who is wonderful & very customer service oriented). JJ's was one of our favorites in Chicago, so glad they're in the Dallas area now. read more

Catfish Nuggets scrumptious & quite delicious ‼ portion size excellent and lemonade very flavorful & tart.. not watery. Recommend highly

Yes. Love me some seafood and chicken. Love the whole wings by the piece or the fish but careful you don't want to get too addicted. A easy carry out or dine-in but not a lot of seating. Great quiet place for people who don't like crowds and you want to get out the house to dine in at a small venue. This is the spot. read more

My first time getting food from here and it bad! It's not real catfish! Catfish is a meaty fish the fillets were thin and cooked hard with a fishy taste! 8 pcs of fish a handful of fries! Doesn't come with bread, pickles or even a pepper! I paid extra for a pepper, and pickles that were not in the bag and coleslaw that tasted old and soggy! I wasted 30.00 everyone cannot cook fish! Not ever going back! Was looking for a place to get real catfish in the Lancaster /Glenn Heights area and this is not it! read more

I heard so many great things about this place. Unfortunately my experience wasn't as good as the reviews I read and heard. I ordered the fried catfish and fries only to receive hard fried tilapia. Needless to say, I'll take my $8 to a place that I know I will be guaranteed catfish when I order it. Enjoy people. read more

JJ Fish & Chicken - Tilapia not catfish.. Seems I was catfished - American Near Me - Lancaster, Texas

Workers were super nice but the food was trash. The hush puppies had corn in them, not corn mill but actual can corn?!? The hypnotic Daiquiri tasted like mouth wash or straight rubbing alcohol. read more

I like jj's a lot. Reminds me of hip hop chicken in Baltimore w/ the seasoning. But it's better sides in Baltimore. Still good. Love using them for events. read more

Food was great. The only thing I was surprised about is that the restaurant doesn't carry limes or lemons!

For the Pleasant Run Location: NOT RIGHT FOR YOU OR ME! Customer Service: This was my first time visiting this establishment. I ordered the lunch special, fried green tomatoes (sold by the slice, which is weird) and a crab cake. In the display area, there were cakes and several different homemade sauces. I inquired about the tartar sauce and was assured tartar sauce would come with my order. I paid for my food. A recommendation was made for me to try the kool aid and brownie. I made a second purchase for a combined purchase total of over $20.00. When my food came I checked the bag for tartar sauce and it consisted of packages, so I requested the homemade tartar sauce and was informed it would be 81 cents. I only had a card and was told I would need to spend at least $5.00 to use my debit card; to which I was immediately appalled. I asked if she could just give it to me and she replied, "no". I asked if a manager was on duty and reiterated that I was a 1st time customer. I was informed that a manager was not on duty. The clerk walked away. Food Review: They advertised catfish fillets, but the fish I received was not catfish. The fake catfish had average seasoning and a mediocre flavor with an oily unsavory coating. The shrimp was overly battered and overcooked. The crab cake was made with imitation crab and greatly missed the mark. The kool aid was okay and the brownie was good. FIRST AND LAST TIME CUSTOMER read more
