The options are a good variety. There is steamed, raw, or fried. The service was exceptional. The young lady was very kind and helpful. Oder options, order ahead or to go. No done in. The shrimp were good, the lobster tail a bit overcooked, the crab smaller and cooked properly. The flavor was different. I got the Cajun seasoning and they gave me garlic and a Cajun butter. Y weren't bad but again different. The broccoli was good and the potatoes were soft. Many drink options and desserts. In all fairness this is a place you will or you wont like it. Good thing you can get the seafood to go raw and cook it yourself. read more

Seafood Junction - Winter tray... Lobster tail, crab, shrimp, broccoli, a corn, and potatoes. - Seafood Near Me - Hillside, Illinois

The new boy that works the register is rude as hell I did not get my full order. he only gave me one butter for three things of crab legs, and dinner to feed three people and then missing my whole extra side of broccoli called up there four times and he hung up on me every single time he is not good for business and needs to be fired. Immediately the other boy that's usually there I never have a problem with spent $60 and didn't even get what I wanted. Refused to give me butter gave me one butter for a meal for three people. When I ordered over the phone asked for extra lemon pepper and lemon pepper on the side and he refused to give me a lemon pepper. I had no lemon pepper on my food at all!!!! read more

Food , service, and soo much more are just beyond Awesome ! I just live it here! I would definitely recommend! They also have discounts on certain days and their affordable read more

Chicago has some of the best food to me. I enjoyed this place so much. Not only can you purchase food with EBT and pay them to cook it but it's affordable. Highly recommend read more

do not go to this location I ordered 3 veggie trios and only received 1. the worker lied and said they gave it to me then the manager said they didn't and he in turn changed his story to say they ga it to me. It is always a problem when I go to this location There is another location in oak park that is better read more

This company is violating a U.S. federal law by selling Swai or (basa/pangasis) labeled as catfish. The law prevents confusion and ensures consumers know what they are buying, as true catfish and swai have different nutritional profiles and farming practices (e.g., swai often comes from Vietnam's Mekong Delta). read more

Food was amazing, but the reason I started coming was because the food was fresh and hot coming out the door. Sad to say it was still good. All I am asking is can you give people fresh hot food that's good and we'll keep coming. I don't like spending this about of money for cold crabs read more

Great good great customer service!!! I love coming here always a great experience.. My order is always correct my food is always hot!!! I love it here read more

Decent food, good price. If you have a link card your in luck because they accept ebt. Call ahead of time to place your order. Takes about 30 mins. Service was good as well. They always have a nice young lady up front. read more

Food amazing! Deserts are great in the case and always fresh. The lady behind the counter is hilarious and friendly.

I tried the shrimp and scallop for lunch. My coworker picked it up. I wasn't expecting much, but I was rather impressed. The seafood was perfect. Wasn't overcook. Shrimp was easy to peel. The veggies were solid. Everything was drenched in delicious butter and very flavorful. My only complaint is the container used. It comes in Styrofoam wrapped in plastic wrap. Didn't leak during transport but doesn't make for clean storage of leftovers, especially when the container has like an inch of liquid at the bottom. read more

I usually cook my seafood myself due to all of the horror stories I hear about restaurant purchases. However, this location did not let me down! The staff was super helpful...I asked at least 30 questions and saw not one sign of frustration! The cashier assisted me in choosing the perfect deal and was pleasant the entire time. Now to the food...it smacked! Naw FR...everything was fresh and I went at like 7pm. I usually eat King Crab but their Snow Crab was on point and they had a great amount of meat in their clusters. I'm a picky eater. I'm a big time foodie. And they won me over!!! read more

I promised my son I would bring him some shrimp and noticed this place. Quick look at Yelp and I went in. Super friendly young lady behind the counter helped me place my order. Wish I would have gotten her name for this review - it was so nice to be greeted by a smiling face and a positive attitude! She is definitely an asset to the business. After receiving the order I went to the car and opened it. I thought the Shrimp looked kind of dry and maybe over cooked. I was wrong. They were perfect. Absolutely delicious. Best shrimp ever! That's all I ordered but I'll be back again for more! read more

Flavorless and just not very good seafood at all. First time I figured it was probably someone new in the kitchen and gave them the benefit of the doubt, but the second time I realized this is pretty much what they always serve and it's as bland as it gets. Too bad because it had promise. read more

Went there today and they completely forgot my crab clusters in my order. Tried calling and the line is busy like it always is; definitely my last time!! read more

I like them. Didn't fry food when they first opened. Came back a few months later and they changed their policy. So now they fry food also. They told me that the community asked for it. And they listened. A little pricey but they do have special's and coupons. I do support them. read more

Place is on the expensive side but then again it's seafood so you should definitely expect that. I ordered the one pound shrimp with broccoli and potatoes with some lobster tails and King crab legs well cooked and seasoned. The wait was not too bad even though they say you can call in your order but sometimes they don't even pick up the phone but overall good experience. read more

I always read reviews before I try a restaurant for the first time. Some of the reviews were good, and some were bad. I had a craving for seafood, and this location is a lot closer than the one on the west side, so I decided to go here, even though I saw some bad reviews. I read that this location is worse than the location on the west side when it came to the quality of food. The first thing I noticed was how clean the place was! I also didn't have to fear my safety or watch my purse, back, or the riff raff around me because there wasn't any. I walked in and was immediately greeted by the cashier. She asked me was it my first time there. Great customer service! I couldn't decide if I wanted the crab legs or the lobster tail, so I got both with the veggies. I liked the fact that they saran wrap your container so nothing won't leak or fall out. I didn't like the price, it is high, but that's expected for seafood. I was anxious to get home to see if it was worth the price. I got home and dug in. Those bad reviews were wrong. The food was delicious! I noticed that they gave me plenty of butter and the food was seasoned very very well! The crab legs and lobster tail wasn't dry and was full of flavor. The veggies melted in your mouth and the corn was extra tender. Definitely more flavorful than the Madison St location! The reason why they got 4 stars is because they could've gave me more veggies for the price I paid. Other than that, I wouldn't change a thing. I will return when I can splurge $20-$30 again! read more

My salmon was overcooked and after two bites I didn't touch it again and threw that part away....you just lost two stars already. However those were the BEST vegetables I've had in a long time. I don't even like eating broccoli and that was the first thing that was gone from my plate. The shrimp were good but had to peel them. The season on them were good where I would eat it again. Had gotten tilapia on the side. It wasn't overcooked like my salmon, but doubt I order it again.. You can order by the pound or grab a STEAMED seafood platter meal that comes with 3 vegetables: broccoli, corn & potatoes.Price range $10-$60 (but the average is $15)You're also given the option to add onto the platter I actually see this more as a healthier option vs. Captain B's a few blocks down in Bellwood.. I'll stick with the shrimp and hope a few months from now the salmon becomes better. This is the 2nd Seafood Junction.The first one is in Chicago on Madison seems to have mix reviews based on being good but bad customer service. Also notice people talking about safety issues at the Madison location. Technically this seafood junction is in Hillside, but across the street is Bellwood, but doubt anyone is really worried about safety issues over here. This one opened up around 6/15/2015. Hopefully this place stays as the last three restaurants at this exact same spot has come and gone in a matter of MONTHS! Although I've only been here twice. That's one more than the other three spots that was here so I guess that's a good thing. read more

Very friendly reception the moment you walk in the door. The ladies behind the counter will help you if you look like you need help. Which we did. There's a sign on the wall that's all the fried stuff and then the sign above behind the cashier is all raw where they will cook it for you in whatever style you like. You get four to choose from, but the most popular is Cajun which is what we chose. We ordered the crab legs, lobster tail, shrimp, clam and mussel option. But we subbed the mussels for crawfish. Check out the photo of our "platter". I thought it was a party platter. Lots of food. And it only cost $40. The food was great. I will definitely come back. read more

I stopped in on a Friday and I wasn't sure what to expect. It a new place and i pass bt on the way to work. But the lovely young lady at the counter explained the procedure. I was pleasantly surprised at how organized everything was. I ordered and waited. Everything was cooked to order and nothing deep fried. So far it was organized, it was super clean, and healthy? I couldn't wait to get my food. I ordered the salmon and shrimp combo Cajun style. It came like a clambake- potatoes and corn. It was so fresh and delicious. How could I have passed this place and not known. I already planning my next visit. I read more

Does not honor their word. I was given the wrong order via delivery. I reached out to the restaurant and notified them of the issue. Sais notified me that I had one of 2 options as to bring the order back which wasn't an option because I ordered delivery for a reason or to receive a credit for the mix up. I called a few weeks later only to be told something completely different and that it was only a partial credit and that I should've contacted the delivery service about the issue. He did not mention any of this in our initial conversation and made sure I questioned that I would have a credit for my meal not part of it. Sad to say as a loyal customer I will no longer be patronizing their business. read more

The food here is delicious. My husband and I ate on the food for three days. 3 meals for 2 people for $125.00 you can't beat that. All the seafood is fresh and that Cajun butter is amazing!!! I took off one star because both our lobster tails seemed a bit overcooked. read more

I had the lobster, crab, shrimp and, clams , platter everything was delicious and spiced well im very impressed and will be back again to satisfy my seafood cravings. YUM YUM YUM read more

Not impressed had fried shrimp with fries and shrimp tasted like chicken to me. The shrimp were clearly over cooked and had a chewy texture like a chicken tender. The lady at the front counter was rude and offered very little information about the menu. I wanted to try the crab but was unsure how to order and since the cashier wasn't offering any help I didn't get it. I then asked for cocktail sauce and they don't have any they only offer hot sauce. Guess that's how they fool people who don't know quality seafood. Didn't live up to my expectations. Won't be back read more

Tasteful seafood cooked to perfection. Little oily but the flavors are awesome. Highly recommendable

This Take out restaurant is very new with great customer service, but I am a seafood junkie. I had the shrimp dinner; the shrimp still had the shell on it and the the veggies were something I could of easily prepared at home. If I myself could not cook then I may have been impressed but since I have eaten at virtually every seafood restaurant in the Chicagoland area this place is not in my top 10 or even top 20 read more

Fisherman's Island Chicago is significantly better (better flavor and generous portions) than Seafood Junction (cost more, small portions, and bland)on 87th! read more

Sooooo good! Had the jerk tilapia, Cajun shrimp platter. The fish, shrimp, potatoes and broccoli were awesome. The corn was meh, but I was so full didn't care. Hubby had the king and snow crabs. Said he'd get the king again, skip the snow crab. Considering what you're getting, priced very well. Carry out only. read more

I was there a couple days ago and the young lady behind the corner explained to me that it will be a 10 minute wait for my food. I told her I didn't mind waiting and she said to me "Well, I do mind because I have been at work since 1 and I will have to stay late to make your food. I kindly told her well I don't want anything. You will never get my money!!! By the way does not even deserve the one star that i have them. This is how you treat your customers? read more

Rude- tried to order delivery. Wouldn't answer simple questions. Gave up and didn't bother ordering. Taking our business elsewhere.

This place is great! It never disappoints. I love seafood and had heard about this place, never noticed that I drive by it on a daily. The location is small, it's very clean and doesn't smell. The young lady at the front is very helpful. I was so lost, I wanted one of everything. She helped me choose a platter, with crab legs and jumbo shrimp. My son also ordered crab legs, but had lemon pepper seasoning. My husband had crab legs also. The thing that surprised me was how clean the seafood was. Any place that I have ever gone to and ordered crab legs, I never eat the cluster part where all the crab legs are attached. It's usually too fishy flavored for me and the color of the crab meat is usually dark and you can tell it was not cleaned properly. I went with the Cajun seasoning. Everything was very delicious. The broccoli was a bit over cooked and falls apart when you pick it up with your fork. The containers are saran wrapped, so nothing spills. Which is great because, when it happens my car stinks for days. I have visited once a week 1/2 hour before they close and they are still very helpful and attentive and never rush you. My son loves this place as well, he really enjoys his seafood. The jumbo shrimp are huge! They are also very clean and well devined, no residual left over to make it taste dirty or bitter. I know my seafood and this place is a must to visit for every seafood lover. read more

Yum, yum, yum!!! Got the crab legs and shrimp combo with regular seasoning. The meal was about $20 with tax. The serving size was decent and the veggies (steamed red skin potatoes, broccoli and corn on the cob) were good. The store was clean, and the service was fast and friendly. This location is also open from 11am-9pm on Sundays. read more

This is a must have....I had lunch there and took my husband back for dinner...can be pricy but what good health food is not

The food was just okay. I love the seasonings they used but the portions are small. I would still go back considering my options are limited. read more

I was driving down Mannheim rd Saturday afternoon and noticed this restaurant. I had a my eye on wings as usual and was pleasantly surprised to find a seafood place that looked like a market. I first saw the advertisements in the window and I thought they only catered parties are something. After viewing the extra fresh crab legs and fresh seafood I was just about to walk out until the nice young lady behind the counter said "sir I'm sorry can I help you" as she was bagging prior orders. I said uuuhh can I get the salmon and 12 shrimp and she said cajun or creole or original and I replied original. She smiled, thanked me and rang my order and when I got home I was was surprised that I got potatoes, brocoli, corn and best of all my food was not deep fried which I had expected but did not ask. This is real restaurant quality food and it is very good. I don't mine paying $11.99 for that meal, it was well worth it and it did not clog my arteries. If you get a chances check them out they are very good and trust me I know what good seafood is suppose to taste like and that was it !!! The place is real clean also and that is why I give them five stars for breaking the fried food cycle. Thank you , Eric R read more
