I was not a fan of the food here. My boyfriend and I were working in the area and needed to grab lunch. We saw that this place had four stars so we thought we'd be good. We got the shrimp with flounder with bbq sauce with rice and veggies and the crabmeat balls on the side. The veggies weren't fresh and it was just fried fish and shrimp doused in some bbq sauce (not cooked in it). The sauce overpowered the food. And the crabmeat balls were just a bad idea. I should have known that but I was starving and obviously was not thinking straight.

Dry, not Flaky, not even white on the inside of the whiting, smh

I'm confused...I see this restaurant have a 4 star rating and I'm trying to understand, why?!?! This was my first and last time eating at this restaurant. All I ordered Fish and Chips. You may ask "how'd an order as simple as that turn out to be disastrous?" It turned out to be a disaster because it reminded me of Gordon's Fisherman fish out of the bag, which is ok, realistically, it's a fast paced environment so I get that they may use faster methods of making food to get rid of the crowd. But when you use frozen fish...you shouldn't re-fry the fish! When you re-fry, it's no longer flaky and in this case, it's no longer white on the inside of the fish...it's almost brown. Secondly, I asked them for a condiment cup so That i could put hot sauce in the cup and he told me they didn't have anymore, it was only 12:30 PM and they ran out, meanwhile he just gave me a cup with tartar sauce. I don't like the hot sauce in the pack and he gave me at least ten of them thinking that would help the situation, ok, I didn't say anything about that, I just "attempted" to pay for my food so I could catch a cab home to eat my food. When they swiped my card, their machine wasn't working...at least on their end it wasn't, but on my end it was! It was definitely taken out of my account. I still didn't say nothing, I just showed them my bank account proving that I was charged. Finally, I catch my cab, get home to try this food that I went through such a big hassle for, and it was terrible. When they showed me the food after it was prepared, it appeared to be fresh as it was piping hot when they opened the tray. IT WAS DRY, NOT FLAKY, NOT WHITE, Basically it was re-fried. I attempted to eat the fish and I couldn't take the dryness of the fish. my mom was choking on her fish. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that you can not microwave, re-fry, reheat or use any other shortcuts for preparing whiting, as the fish is too thin!! I called the restaurant back and spoke with Joseph and told him my issue and was told to come back with the food, I guess to prove that the fish was dry, flaky and not white. I explained to him that I don't live near by and I just took a cab there and back (because some one referred me, thanks a lot Kim!!) just for the food. So I was told to hold the food until the next time I come up there and show it to them. I told Joseph that I will stop by tomorrow with the proof that the fish was old. At that point, I figured that I'd prove it to my yelp family as well. What I'm upset about is the customer service. They weren't the friendliest in the first place and the food was terrible. All of these businesses are placed in poverty stricken neighborhoods and they serve whatever they feel like serving because no one ever says anything publicly, we normally go up to the business and place our complaints that's normally swept under a rug by adding an additional crab stick our meals!! I'm posting this so that the restaurant won't attempt to do this to another customer. Thanks for reading everyone!

Great food. The man taking orders can be a bit rude but the lady is great at customer service. The food is fast n fresh. Only downfall is you can only pay cash. There is no atm here neither.

Salmon combo

I'm a regular here even though I live 20 minutes away. I always get the salmon combo. The fish is tasty and well cooked. The shrimp is also really good. I love the rice! I'm not a rice person but theirs is so flavorful. I recommend calling in advance if you're picking up because the wait time is pretty long and it's gets super crowded in their tiny store. They also just started taking credit cards (about time) I believe you have to spend atleast $10 to use your card. I'll definitely keep coming the food is too good to stay away

I got the teriyaki seafood combo with salmon . It comes with scallops mussels salmon veggie rice and broccoli and carrots. Everything was good and well cooked. Well seasoned and flavored. Except the salmon it was dry and over cooked. And very fresh tasting i didn't like it and that was the part i was looking forward to eating but other than that the blend of flavors was good.

First tip- there's a QR code with an BOGO offer on the front of the store , scan than and order…read morefrom that to pick up inside. I didn't see that till I was leaving and the guy at the counter didnt make me the wiser. The menu is huge but there were only a few items on display on the Thursday I went. ( It was the day before Good Friday). They do make pasta items etc as you order but a lot of things I asked for were not available. Even the lunch special posted on the wall inside was not available. I'm guessing this is the Caribbean side of the Caribbean Soul Food ( I can joke about that, I'm Caribbean lol) The guy at the register said they have more of a full stock on Fridays and weekends. Anyway, the food that we did end up getting was really good. I got whole fried fish and was told it would be about 10 mins for him to fry it fresh. Id wait again and again for this fish, it was perfectly seasoned and I ate it piping hot and ordered another. The rasta pasta did not have lots of of veggies , he also made that upon us ordering. It looked plain but it was so delicious- the sauce was silk and rich. Collard greens 10/10 ,I think in all the soulfood places I tried recently this one took first place. The mac and cheese pretty good too. Jerk chicken was good. Take out only. Food that has to be prepared on spot is made right in front of you too.

I love Cajun food and still search for a good one that is still in delivery area from my home. This…read moretime I try Mother's Seafood & More. I ordered.... - Steamed Okra: nice and crunchy 8/10 - 1 lb Snow Crab Steamed & Spicy: not spicy at all and too much oil 6/10 - 1/2 lb Scallops Spicy, Grilled: also, oily 7/10 Overall, good for the price and nice to try. Delivery was on time even it was leaking.
