My…read moresister was doing my hair and said we should get some seafood from this place that Mama has been to. Seafood is life so I said absolutely. Once we were done we headed over there. When we went in there isn't anywhere to really sit and when you walk in you wouldn't think greatness come from there but boy was I wrong.We ordered and we were told it would be about 20-30mins. So while we waited to went to a few other stores. The gentleman at the counter was very nice and friendly I was confused on what flavor I should get and I asked could I do 3 flavors and he told me what ever I want. I ordered the 1lb crab and 1/2 lb shrimp with Lemon Pepper, Old Bay and Cajun. When we received the food we checked it and it smelled so good and I didn't know it came with Corn, Potatoes and Broccoli. Once I made it home my food was warm at no fault to them just I had a few errands to run before making it home. Even being warm it was still amazing. My favorite part was the Broccoli. I could have a whole pan of that alone. But EVERYTHING was amazing. Price Point was average for Seafood and you already I want to try something new or different the next time I go because I will be back.

I made sure to get a half pound of each of their Crown Jewels- the smoked salmon and the smoked shrimp. I also tacked on a small side of fries with some ketchup and hot sauce. While the shrimp was fairly solid and certainly had the subtle smoky flavor present, it didn't blow me away quite like the salmon did. That was that the best smoked salmon I've ever had in my life, I just couldn't get enough of it. No idea how they possibly pack so much flavor into every single bite, but I left nothing behind. I can still smell the smoky savory flavor, and will certainly be getting the salmon every time I come back. The piping hot fries were delicious as well, especially after plopping down my meal on a bench outside in the 20 degree weather to scarf everything down at once. Service was great as well- had some questions about what was offered and they were happy to answer everything and make recommendations. Would go back for sure.

The quality of the fish is excellent, especially the shrimp. I think I could eat that fried shrimp every day. All the fish was perfectly fried but as much as I like catfish, I might take a pass on it in the future. The fish was beautifully meaty but the coating does nothing for the flavor of the fish and it came across as bland. To me, the smelts could have used a squeeze of lemon but that's just my taste. I'm not as good a judge of smoked fish but once again, the shrimp were outstanding, mostly due to the quality of the shrimp. I'm not as big a fan of the trout partially because I don't care for the variety of trout they use and partially because while the smoke smell is very strong, the smoke flavor isn't quite that strong. The garlic pepper salmon went over well. The flavors were well balanced and the fish was nicely moist. The store is tiny, parking may be challenging, and when they sell out of something for the day, that's that. The staff is helpful and efficient. And remember, CASH ONLY.

I decided on a 10 piece party wing combo with buffalo sauce. For $10.99 it came with fries and two pieces of toasted white bread in total. My only complaint was that I had to pay 75 cents extra just for ranch and ketchup which is sort of nickel and diming you, but the fact that it's salad ranch packets and not actual legit ranch made for wings is what was a bummer. I'd still return to try some other things on their menu! Great seafood selections for great prices!

I must be the only South Shore resident who doesn't like hot pepper. Next time I will ask them to leave off the sprinkle. Surprisingly, my husband is still chowing down, and usually he is the one who can't eat hot food. The food really is very good.

I was dining with my wife and daughter; their meals were served first, and my order was completely overlooked until after they had finished eating. When the oversight was brought to the staff's attention, the only solution offered was to package the meal to go. There was no gesture to accommodate the inconvenience, which added to our frustration. Additionally, the pricing felt somewhat high for the overall experience, and we were surprised to see a 6% surcharge for credit card payments. To my understanding, in Chicago and under Illinois law, credit card surcharges are generally capped at 3% or the actual processing cost, whichever is lower. The restaurant has potential, but improvements in service consistency, pricing transparency, and overall customer care are needed to better meet guest expectations.
