    This is a very well run Long John Silvers. Very friendly staff and good fish options. Everything's fried on demand, hot and crispy. Neighborhood is all businesses so nothing fancy there, but the restaurant is clean and neat. The fried cod is the best.

    Fish & Chicken Platter

    I grew up visiting the location by Capital Plaza. I have not had LJS in over a decade and decided to test this location out. I was pleasantly impressed with the quality of the food. I had the fish and chicken plate that I shared with my toddler. She very much enjoyed the chicken and fries. I enjoyed the fish and coleslaw. The hush puppies were nostalgic to me. I used the drive thru so I did not see the inside of the restaurant. My server was pleasant. My food was hot and out very quickly. I would recommend to other families to come on by!

    Mixture of cold and hot items on the tray. Poor quality control.

    TLDR: Some items were hot, some were cold. Not impressive for a place that specializes in deep-fried everything. As another user put it, "Long John Silvers is a dying breed of restaurants that serve fried fish to go." That said, you have to give them credit for enduring and out-lasting a whole bunch of their competitors over the years. Heck, the decor still looks like it's right out of the 70's, and that's saying something. Order two platters; the usual diamond-shaped pollock fillets along with fries and hushpuppies, and the rectangular cod fillets with fries and hushpuppies. The cod was hot and delicious. Everything else was lukewarm or even COLD. We were there at 10:45am on a day when they opened at 10:30. The only way they could have cold items is if they cooked them last night, or someone came in at 7am to cook them and left them out. Either way, pretty unappealing. Like I said, when hot the food's fine. But when your only product is deep-fried fill-in-the-blank, you can't get away with serving cold food. That's something to throw back, not serve. This place scores a 2 out of 5 on the 'CTJ Scale', as noted below. 5 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Jesus good. Would be OK passing away after finishing a plate here. 4 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Mary good. Would be OK having a nosh here with Mother Mary. 3 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Joseph good. Would be OK having a beer here with Jesus' Dad. 2 out of 5 stars: Come-to-the-Apostles good. Meh. Wouldn't have my last supper here. 1 out of 5 stars: Come-to-Nobody good. I wouldn't have my penultimate supper here, either.

    Tahra was very kind and patient with my order.

    Long John Silvers's is a dying breed of restaurants that serve fried fish to go. Gone are its competitors such as "H. Salt Fish and Chips and the others. But Long John's has hung in there. I always visit this location after a worship team rehearsal. I love the flavor. They offer other options than just fried fish. Service here is exceptional. The drive thru speaker is clear and concise. They can actually understand your requests. My order is always correct. You must stop by and sample the catch.

    Mid at best. Floor was greasy and trash cans were filthy. Soda machine was a bust. Food was lackin! Customer service was great! But food and place was a bust!

    Maybe the amount due was a clue a plate was missing. Wonder who kept the change. The restaurant or the Uber driver.

    Just about the worst experience ordering on Uber from this restaurant. They not only forgot one fish plate, but didn't add any condiments like TARTAR sauce. How do you not add any condiments for 4 fish plates ? Unbelievable!! Called several times and they never answered the phone. I will never order from this place again. Was my first and last time. Had to order from a completely different fish restaurant. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

    I have not been to a long John silver's in probably 20 years. For some reason I got a craving today.. So I ordered through Uber eats and got fish shrimp and clams.. I'll start with the fish. It was way overcooked.. The crusting was almost too hard to bite through. And there was little to no fish inside at all.. The shrimp I'd probably give it a 3 it was it was all right but not good.. The clams were good. I also got the corn as a side and it tasted like they put some kind of chemical in it inedible The fries were probably good when they were fresh buthey were fresh but by the time I got them they were cold and fries reheated in the microwave are just disgusting. I definitely will never order from here again. I don't know what happened or when it happened but they used to be pretty good.

    2 Fish & Shrimp w/ green beans & fries. Extra crumbs on the side.

Server was nice to share how backed up the restaurant was. I ordered the fried shrimp with flounder combo. I love how the fries have that beer batter exterior so it's extra crispy. The shrimp was great plum and juicy. I felt like the batter was a little too thick and the batter didn't have any flavor in it. The flounder was good, but the fish was dry. I wish for the price point. The fish was a little thick thicker in meat. It was slightly sweet white meat so that was good. The chicken wings honestly are really good. I was surprised how crispy and juicy the wings were. I love the Cajun flavor along with the lemon pepper. You can really taste both seasonings. They have the chicken wing fried game down very surprised how good the wings were, crispy skin and juicy white meat. The oysters were great, big sized oysters, no sand or shell chips. Nice sweet flavors from the oyster meat. Clean tasting, a little briny, good seafood taste. Alll the side dipping sauces were good, cocktail, ranch, etc. beers were good too. Reasonably priced.

    Sigh... Surfing Crab, we need to have a little talk…read more After a long night of work, my fiancé and I just wanted a nice little Friday night snack. Nothing fancy, just some good seafood to end the night. I called in my order around 9:00 PM and ordered Combo #2, which comes with 2 snow crab clusters. We chose green mussels and shrimp with medium sauce, plus I ordered an extra side of sausage when I arrived. I got there around 9:24 PM, and there was already a line, so I honestly assumed my food probably wouldn't be ready yet. Welp... SURPRISE! My food was already sitting on the counter when I arrived. Now, I'm wondering... how long had my $56 seafood dinner been sitting there before I got there? Because by the time I got home and opened those bags, pretty much everything was COLD. And then came the real plot twist... I opened the bag expecting saucy, seasoned seafood, and instead I got DRY SEAFOOD. The sausage had more sauce on it than the entire bag of crab legs and mussels! I'm still trying to figure out how the sauce was supposed to work because the crab legs were dry, the mussels were dry, and basically all the meat was dry. The crab legs had seasoning sitting mostly on top, but there was no sauce throughout. The mussels? Just sitting there dry as the Sahara. The ONLY thing that was actually hot was the extra sausage I ordered when I got there My fiancé didn't even eat. And THAT made me even more irritated because this was supposed to be our little Friday night treat after a long night of work. Instead, I'm sitting there looking at $56 worth of cold, dry seafood like... surely somebody is playing in my face. Surfing Crab, I'm mad. I'm mad that we paid that much money. I'm mad that the food was cold. I'm mad that the seafood was dry. And most importantly, I'm mad my fiancé didn't even get to enjoy his food! For $56, I need more than a bag of seafood that looks like it has been waiting on somebody since the dinner shift started. Surfing Crab Round Rock, y'all are going to have to do better. Because when I order seafood with sauce, I expect the seafood to actually meet the sauce. Not the sausage to be swimming while the crab legs are over there fighting for moisture. Friday night: RUINED. Fiancé: DIDN'T EAT. Wallet: $56 LIGHTER. Me: MAD. I really hope this was just an off night because I wanted to like this place. But based on this experience... Surfing Crab, baby, we need to do better. At least shake the bag to get sauce on everything is that hard for a girl to ask for!!

I found this place on TikTok and looked up the location and we just drove straight to it. When we arrived I was confused because I expected a restaurant, but instead a food truck. Was I a little skeptical? Of course, I couldn't lie. Regardless, the reviews were great and their food looked amazing on TikTok. I ordered a #3, which came with 1/2 crab, 10 shrimp, 1 sausage, 1 egg, and 1 corn for $30. The seasoning I added was "lil kick" and Chili Limón. When we got back to our hotel, the food was still warm and I cannot say this enough... it was amazing. Absolutely 10/10. The crab was perfectly cooked and the seasoning was perfect.

(eg. step one your plate, step 2 flavors etc.) and then he pointed at a sign on the side of the food truck which says was severely damaged and peeled off. We got #6 I believe which was 1lb of crab, 15 shrimp with sausage, one egg and one corn. Flavors were lemon pepper and Cajun but we asked for the mild option. I also emphasized on mild (bc I have acid reflux). The guy said to give him 15-20 min. 20 min go by and he said it would be ready in about 20min when we attempted to pick it up. Overall 40+ min for overly spicy (not mild at all) plate. I wouldn't come back here. Some of the crab legs barely had any meat in them too. I came here bc I didn't realize the other crab place in Pflugerville was closed.
