    Love the taste of this trash.
    Jay V.

    Not sure how many people read reviews for fast food joints on yelp, but I'll give it a try. I order from this location all the time. My wife will at times pick some up and bring me lunch. When I tell her I want Long John's, she always replies that she hates ordering from there because the ladies are rude. Well I haven't had it in a couple of weeks and was craving it bad. So, drove 30 mins out of my way to get some on my day off last week. Arrive and immediately the tattooed woman behind the counter approached us with attitude. Without looking at us, she asked for here or to go? I couldn't hear so well so I didn't even realize she was talking to me. Then she turned her head with attitude and asked again in a firm tone with attitude. I told her that I wanted the 5 piece fish and chicken combo but wanted all chicken. It's how they've recommended doing it in the past since I only like the chicken. Immediately the woman big nods her head no before I could finish telling her what I wanted. I said, that's how they told me to order it. She said too many people are ordering that way and they're not gonna allow it. You're gonna have to order the 3 piece and add two pieces to it. I asked how much that was and she replied with attitude, look at the menu the prices are up there. When I told her that's it way more expensive that way, she replied, of course, that's why they want you to order it that way. By this time I'm pissed with this woman's attitude problem and lack of any customer service. I tell my wife, let's go. This bitch is being rude. Then the woman came out from behind the counter with her arms open like she was ready for a fist fight yelling, I'm not rude. I know greenspoint is a rough area but the staff doesn't have to be that way too. Walking out, my wife said that that woman is the nicest of all of the employees that work there. That means the others are even more getto than this one. Needless to say, I still lost out in this situation cause now I gotta wait on her to get canned or quit before I can order there again unless I want to get any extra "secret sauce" in my food. I made a stink about it to Long John's corporate, telling them I wanted to speak to a person about this. They made me complete a survey then sent a $5 coupon to my email. You would think a company on the brink of collapse would value some feedback from someone who purchases from them often. There's only a handful left here in town and at this rate there won't be any left at all very soon. Going to another location didn't help either. Drove up to the Long John's in Spring the next day. Staff was friendly, but I got ass raped on the price. But that's a story for another review one day.

    Food.

    Went here to try the infamous long John silvers, to see if it really is the worst, it's not. The food was okay, 4/10 on taste and flavor but 9/10 on crispness. Fish was better quality than expected. However there was a tattooed lady/old man (cannot tell) that was just rude, like damn normally is someone is rude in a restaurant I normally don't care, however this person was harsh and rude at the same time like a witch. Some people hate their jobs but I can tell the fish oils seeped into her/his brain and genetically destroyed it on a DNA level. I can actually tell she's the manager since she's bossing everyone in the back and had this goofy shirt. The two stars was just for the crispness. There another lady with glasses who was very nice though. Would come back again if the tattooed imbecile got fired though long John silvers probably has $10 left in their reserve and that's why the gremlin is still here.

    This is what passes for "chairs" at this A&W!

    Visited here midweek after going to a Yelp event at the nearby Regal. I'd seen this spot a few…read moretimes when dining with colleagues nearby and assured myself I'd check it out as soon as I could. I'm glad I did! When walking in it wasn't crowded but there were a fair amount of guests for a near 10 pm crowd on a Wednesday. I went and sat at the bar to which I was immediately greeted and provided menus. Food & Drink - 5* I immediately ordered some wings and fried pickles and peppers. Then I debated between the Irish Stew or the Shepherd's Pie. When I inquired, both are great but advised I should go with the Shepherd's Pie. Off to races we go. Fried pickles and peppers, delicious, the batter isn't over the top yet doesn't fall off terribly. The cilantro jalapeño sauce is a fantastic pairing. The wings -- great, nice crisp, flavor was not necessarily what I expected, I couldn't place it at the time it they were good. Now, the shepherd's pie, wow, this dish was addicting. I'd come back over and over for this while sabotaging in semblance of a balanced diet. Just makes me know that the Irish stew is likely equally fantastic. The drinks, well, I can't speak to cocktails but the Guinness was delicious, cold, with nice collar/head. Can't go wrong with that! Service - 5* Everything one would want. Friend, fast, and attentive. Water was always full and was asked if needed anything multiple times. The only thing I didn't get proactively was napkins, but when I asked, I was provided some quickly. Cost - 4.5* Overall, I think, subjectively speaking, everything here is pretty well priced. The shepherd's pie may be a tad overpriced but it's worth it in how delicious it is. Overall - 5* This was a pleasant surprise to visit and I will certainly come back. Subjectively the location is good and bad. Being next to the improv and movie theater I'm sure helps attract many patrons for these businesses. At the same time, this joint, with a loyal following, would sustain business and "feel" better as a free standing establishment in a more neighborhood type environment. Nevertheless, great place, would recommend people stop in even if they aren't visiting the stalwart attractions in the area.

    Service here was impeccable. Very attentive but not over-whelming. Will definitely come back on a…read moregame day

At least in terms of them having high chairs. They don't have like crayons or anything but I wasn't expecting them to. Our server was fast friendly and prompt. I got the chicken tikka and my husband got the fish and chips. The tikka came with too much rice and not enough sauce or naan but I didn't regret getting it. The fish and chips were superior although I added a bit of salt to mine. The breading was perfect and the cod was soft and flakey. My husband was obsessed with the fries. I would for sure come here again for some British pub food.

Our server seemed very inattentive throughout the entire visit. Menus were never cleared from the table, refills were rarely checked on, and we spent a lot of time trying to get basic attention during the meal. It felt more like we were an inconvenience than guests. Good service can completely elevate a place, but unfortunately this experience did the opposite. I'd still come back for the food because the kitchen clearly knows what they're doing, but I really hope the service improves because it did not match the quality of the food at all.
