Great place to eat locally. We usually get it to go and it's just as good. Haven't had anything bad here ever.

Grilled ChickenGrilled MahiPepper Cat Fish Cheeseburgers great seafood and delicious steaks, great service, andGrilled Shrimp the abundance of food was great We have also taken take away food, from the drive-through and it was just as great Great to see a good restaurant in our small community, but people come from all over the area to get a meal at Mad Jax read more

I recommend the Steamed Shrimp 1/2 lb appetizer or the grilled Salmon. The prime rib is great when they have it. You also need to try the corn nuggets. Friendly owners and staff. It's always crowded so be prepared to wait but it's worth it. read more

We think it's the best food in Wilkes County by far. Yummy We have eaten at Mad Jax for a while now and it's always hot and a lot of food for the price. read more

Food is mediocre at best. One can't escape the booming country music that sounds like being played on dime store speakers. Wait staff are ok. read more

We waited for 40 minutes before being seated. After we were finally seated, we waited another 20-plus minutes before the host came over and asked if the server had attended to us, which they had not. The server eventually came and apologized, stating she had no idea we had been seated. We then endured another long wait for our food, which turned out to be quite disappointing. I don't believe I we will be eating here again, if we do it will be for the hamburgers. We chose seafood, and I don't recommend it. read more

so we're in wilkesboro because stuff happens and needed something like dinner and the cutest of chicks was hoping for something like fish... so we are in hill country heading to a place what's made a name selling ocean-based victuals. after a short drive across town we pull up on a twenty minute wait and a pick-up line five cars deep that stayed that deep for the next hour and a half. our twenty minutes went by pretty quick, we got a booth and Katie swung by with hush puppies and went off to get some coffee and hot water for her tea (we bring our own bags because it's the south and ain't nobody has hot tea but the chinese) as we figured dinner out... I went with the catfish special plus slaw and potato and MLB had the flounder with potato and salad... salt and pepper catfish was unlike any I've had before, lighter and flakier than is typical and barely fishy at all but still with the distinct cleft. eats just as well plain or with lemon or cocktail sauce as is your pleasure. slaw is chopped and not overly creamed, captain's taters are thin and round and more delicately seasoned than you're likely to guess. the flounder was similarly light but had a mild fishiness to it that makes me go 'yumm! fish!' side salad with a well mannered blue cheese was fresh and bright next to the baked tater plus sour cream. read more

I do not want this review to be completely negative . We drove an hour to meet a few friends for dinner last night . There were 6 in total . We waited from 630 to @735-740 to be seated . Our waitress was great . The hushpuppies had a good taste however they were cold . As crowded as it was there should have never been any cold food served . We ordered 5 appetizers and they all had good taste but for some reason they were not hot except for the onion petals and they were . Our food came . No one was disappointed in the flounder and catfish however the ribeye steak sandwich and the pirate burger were disappointing . The bread was to be texas toast and appeared to be just regular lite bread . Barely toasted and soggy which made the entire sandwich unappetizing . So they were not eaten . I had ate there 2 others times and driven an hour to do so and the food was good w no complaints . If I based my return on this last visit , we won't be returning. Not worth the drive and wait time . read more

Best beef tips with peppers and onions in the area. The cook here is phenomenal! The grilled Mahi is very good also. There are several gluten free choices here for me. They even make my burgers without a bun. This is my go to restaurant every time I'm camping in Wilkesboro which is a lot. LOL read more

We found this place on Yelp looking for seafood after the NASCAR race. OMG such fresh shrimp & the light batter on my husband's was perfect. Our waitress could not have been sweeter & efficient!! Too bad we don't live down here because we would be going frequently!! It's a comfortable place to eat & the music is playing at a much appreciated lower volume!! You won't regret going!!! read more

Service was great, we went in at 7:50 and they were pretty busy but got us in a booth in less than 5 minutes. Very clean place. My and my friend both got a 1/2 pound of crab legs with two orders of corn nuggets. Food was AWESOME!!! And the prices are great too! Will definitely be going back! read more

Spouse and I went there. The NY Strip Steak I had was very good. It was juicy and flavorful. My wife had the grilled shrimp which she stated was over cooked but tasty. The salads and the cheesecake we had for dessert were both excellent. It did take a bit to get the food but it was busy that evening. The service was outstanding. We will go back at some point and the wife will try another choice. read more

Let's say OMG the food was amazing ! The prices was so inexpensive that my husband order two dinner thinking the portion was small well they sure wasn't !! Don't mind that sign on the door of short staff service cause service was better then $$$$ places The place has a fast food vibe you Can tell it is a great local joint everyone seemed to know everyone .. takeout orders filled the counter and drive thru was hoping too and with all the orders happening we did not wait for our food ..ps the house salad excellent too .. don't live here but if I did sure doesn't pay to cook at home! read more

My husband got us lunch here a couple of days ago and that was the biggest sandwich I have ever seen. It was delicious.

Great food and service!!! We've been about 5 times now and have throughly enjoyed it every time!!

Great food EVERY-TIME! Fast and nice waitstaff. Food is always consistently great. I love the grilled chicken and my husband that's they have the best ribeye in the county! read more

Amazing service when they were super busy! Jayla was a GREAT waitress and went above and beyond! Food was hot and delicious!

Great service. Good food. Try grilled chicken salad. Delicious! Prices are reasonable in this high inflation time.

First time ordering here. Crab legs were Beautiful, clean and full of meat! The peel and eat shrimp were perfectly steamed and seasoned. Baked potatoes and salads were fresh and tasty. Would not hesitate to recommend and we will certainly be going back again soon! read more

A nice addition to a small town. The community loves seafood and that is obvious with the amount of business Mad Jax has. Expect to wait almost any night of the week. I think it would be a huge bonus if they used their "waiting room" as expanded seating. I ordered grilled shrimp which were good and flavorful. Not the best - also would rather have real butter for my baked potato. Expect it to be pricey as well. If you're a local and want to try something new I recommend. I would consider giving it another try. read more

Service was great! Food was pretty good, but I wish they would use real butter instead of that fake oil butter stuff.

Mad Jacks is a step up from good seafood to great seafood. They have other food that looks delicious also but I always get seafood. They have a senior platter that is just right for me. read more

The food there is always excellent the people running the Place are just as good. It's one of my favorite restaurants in the area and I love the staff The service and the experience is always predictable and every time I eat there it gets better. runs like a machine and I'm thankful I was taken there a couple of years ago. Nothing in West Jefferson compares and it's only about 20 minutes from West Jefferson . Thank you To EdGrilled Shrimpdie , Madison , jackson and the Mama as well !! Y'all know I will come back always !! Back definitely the cutest girls also ! I always come back read more

Called to place a to go order at 7:40, was asked if I could hold on and I said sure. Was left on hold forever. I finally hung up and tried to call back. EVERY time I called I got a message that said this number was busy...no ring, nothing!! Straight into that message. I called at least 12 times and got the same message. Sounds to me like someone took the phone off the hook. Sorry, sorry people that don't want people's business. That's fine...you're not the only place in town. I'm more than happy to spend my money elsewhere. read more

This was our first time eating here. We're not from this area. But, man I'm so glad we found it on Yelp! You need to eat here. We had bbq ribs and beef tips entrees accompanied by all the regular trimmings. Every bite of every single thing was wonderful!! Great service, laid back. read more

Great menu! Never disappoints! Best salt and pepper cat fish! The grilled chicken with ghost pepper cheese is amazing! Highly recommend!

Very delish food in our tiny little town. First time there tonight and it was takeout. I think it was called smothered chicken. It was 2 thin chicken breasts smothered in onions, mushrooms, bell peppers, and pepper jack cheese. The chicken was moist and the veggies had a nice sear on them. It came with a large baked potato, texas toast, and a side salad. They have some really good options to pick from and I look forward to going again. A couple of recommendations...provide real butter rather than that fake spread, use fresh mushrooms rather than canned, and perhaps a slightly larger side salad. While I waited in the car the gal that took my order actually brought it to my car. Above and beyond! read more

Mad Jax - Smothered chicken. - Steakhouses Near Me - Millers Creek, North Carolina

Visit PRIOR COVID -- Terrible service and food tasted as if it was out of a can. We waited over an hour for our food. Tables around us we're getting their food. We told the cashier upon checkout that it took over an hour for our food. She didn't seem concerned and didn't offer any compensation. read more

Love to eat at this restaurant. Very friendly and great service. Love the Smother Chicken my Husband loves their Steaks & my son loves the cheeseburgers. Not far from my house and very convenient !!!! read more

I gave MadJax a try and it was not too bad. The fries and Texas toast could have been a little more crispy but other than that my entree was great. The restaurant is small in size and they are very busy so expect to wait. read more

Great choice for fresh food in a town full of fast food and pre-made meal restaurants. We eat here weekly, and there isn't a bad item on the menu. Great service, friendly staff and reasonable prices for the amount of food served. read more
