    This place would have gotten 4 s but the person taking my order went from nice to argumentative? Really Sir... I have been to the location in Forestville and it was a great experience. Now back to the review...I ordered a whiting half sub. I looked up and he placed the dirty cell phone on the counter? then touches the bread with his bare hands . I said SIR...please wash your hands and get gloves. He did so I was like a HAWK watching him make my food. All tomatoes are not created equal because of the ripeness...and how they are cut. I asked to replace two slices with ones that didn't have a core...he didn't understand so I asked the young lady to translate. That's when it became interesting as he stated...I speak English..I was Iike...ok but you clearly didn't understand Sir. He proceeded to finish my sandwich and I noticed he was wearing flip flops? Cooking??? All I wanted was a samich ‍ Well this location is a one-n-done.

    Nastiest Fried Shrimp Po Boy ever. A billion onions picked out.
    Daryll B.

    Sadly, this is another one of those Yelp "if I could give zero or negative stars, I would" reviews. Ordered delivery from Shark's using Uber Eats. Simple order of two fish platters with fries and a shrimp Po' Boy. Prices were reasonable and the order was ready and "delivered" within an hour. Would have been better off if the entire delivery was not made. Only one of the two fish platters were included. Notified Uber Eats and they instantly refunded the amount I paid for the missing item. The other fish from the platter that was delivered was cool in temperature to the touch. They use the most skimpy packaging I have seen ever. No wonder the food was not hot. No worries, I just warmed it in the oven. Too bad the flavor was rather forgettable but at least edible. The fries, cold as well, tasted like the kind you would find in a elementary school cafeteria (not in a good way). Still, the fried fish, if warm and delivered as ordered would have garnered two stars. It was just mediocre at best and that is after warning it up and dousing it with Old Bay and hot sauce. The shrimp Po' Boy was an epic fail. It is like the restaurant's cooks never had a decent one before nor were ever trained in how to make a good sub sandwich period. A foot long had only 8 small to medium limp shrimp. The breading tasted like what you might imagine "plain" tasted like. For some reason they pressed the sub so flat the sub roll resembled two end pieces of cheap store brand white bread...only thinner. I asked for onions and sauce (which they add) to be placed on the side. Of course, they were in the sandwich. There literally was a half of a raw white onion in huge slices all throughout the sandwich. The tomato slices were three soggy end pieces (brown and black portions and all). The sauce , wilted lettuce, and subsequent heat pressing made the now thin sandwich just a disgusting mess. Oh, ironically while the fried shrimp were cold, the mayo based sauce, tomatoes, and lettuce were warm. Worst meal I have had (a bit, then the rest in the garbage) in 2020, and that is saying a lot. No need to go on with the review. I requested a full refund, which is pending. I would not recommend Shark's at all. There are other fried fish spots in the area that are leaps and bounds better. Zero stars if I could......

    I found this place while I was running errands in the area!! It is located in a very small strip mall sandwiched between a laundry mat and a liquor store...welcome to PG County! Either way, I used my handy dandy Yelp app to check it out before possibly wasting my time! The reviews were ok, so why not? I was greeted by a nice older gentleman and was immediately overwhelmed by the menu! First of all, during Covid times, the tables were blocked for indoor dining! But during normal times, you can dine inside! They have everything from frog legs to fried chicken to burgers to cakes and pies! Needless to say, I kept it simple and order fried chicken! It didn't take long to be ready and the price was very affordable! Now I don't eat in my vehicle, but this chicken smelled soo good, I had to! It was sooo good and was sprinkled with some white powder...now I could say what it looked like...but I won't! It was soo good though! I decided I had to try them again! I've gone multiple times and have tried the fried catfish and fries, Philly cheesesteak sub and burgers!! All of which are very good and made fresh to order! The only thing that threw me off was this "Cajun" rice! That was not cajun at all! AlL in all, I stop by when I'm in the mood for come chicken and it is closer than another new fave of mine! Great place with great food thoughi!

    Whole Bone in Croaker

    The Fish was pretty good, (Catfish, Cracker, perch) and the wings as well. You only get ONE Catfish and/or Croaker so order additional food as the portion size is not much.. The Cajun rice was great yellow rice as for the Cajun spice? Not there. Great food for those on a diet, ijs... Seriously, portion size is my only complaint-thankfully we did order (1) of the combination plates... Packing? The white boxes gotta go as they were most due to the heat during transport. Would I go back? Yes, I'd just have to request TWO Croacker bone in fish....

The restaurant is located in the newer developed part of Hyattsville, and parking was super convenient since there was a garage right next door for only $5. They also offer covered outdoor dining, which was a nice touch. Inside, the space was modern and stylish, though a bit on the smaller side. For the tea party, the restaurant gave our group a dedicated section that was heavily decorated by our coordinator, and it was really nicely done, which made the event feel special that they allowed her to do such. Service was a hit and miss. Our waitress unfortunately forgot to put in our drink order to the bartender, so we waited over 30 minutes before finally flagging down another waiter. Thankfully, he was extremely efficient. He quickly got our drinks out, took our food order, and checked in throughout the meal. Once he stepped in, everything moved much faster. The food was excellent. The hummus was a 10/10, the lamb chops were delicious, and even the sautéed spinach was well seasoned and flavorful. The menu is pretty extensive, so there is definitely something for everyone, and the prices were surprisingly reasonable. Overall, nice area, decent service, great food, and affordable prices. I would definitely come back to try more items on the menu.

I appreciate the packaging and presentation of their burgers which is always professional consistent. The Bacon Double (beef bacon) is excellent accompanied by the Akh Sauce. The Cajun Fries are delicious, however, the cook is too inconsistent. At times, the fries are over fried. Crinkle cut fries are unforgiving, so even a few extra seconds in the fryer and you're dealing with more crunch than crisp. For the price and that reason, I simply stay away from the fries. The flavor is excellent, but the execution is too much of a risk. The milkshakes are also delicious, however, these aren't your conventional ice cream shakes. They are more on the creamy and airy side. I've tried a few and although delicious, the ingredient ratios seem off and the creamy texture and whipped cream leans too close to a frothy mix. The mocktail mojitos are delicious and refreshing. The customer service is OK. RECOMMENDATION: Order ahead at least 20 minutes in advance and especially on Fridays and Saturdays when they are busier. There were times when they were understaffed and ordering in-person was over a 40 minutes wait.

    This review is for the food not the service…read more The interior gives off a nice vibe and they have a set up for a live band. I'm sure when it's peak time it's live in there so I'll have to come back for an event. Went around noon on a Sunday and it was fairly empty so we sat at the bar and were serviced immediately. Strawberry lemon drop - 10/10 - I love a good lemon drop but a I'll never pass up a flavored one. No notes. Shrimp & Grits - 5/10 - don't get me wrong it was GOOD but it was too rich/cheesy to me. I don't know what I was expecting in terms of cheese but I've never had soooooo much cheese in an order of shrimp and grits. I legit pulled a mound of cheese off the top and it was still too much. I couldn't finish this unfortunately, even taking them home for another day didn't work because I couldn't take the richness. Not a slight to them, just a no for me. There was a great amount of shrimp in the dish and the consistency of the grifts were amazing. Just need something to cut through the richness. My friend had: Omelette - 10/10 - said they enjoyed it and would get it again Side of bacon - 10/10 - you got 6 pieces with the order and that was solid to me. I'd definitely come back and try something else on their brunch menu if given the chance. It's a bit out the way so I couldn't see myself traveling for it but if I was in the area I definitely would come back.

The crowd got really thick for the band, you literally had to push your way to the bathrooms. Bathrooms also need napkins to dry your hands with, instead of the nasty air hand dryers

    Man, what a turn around!…read more My predictions in the previous review on this place came true, when last year it closed. NASA ditched the previous vendor (Chartwells/Eurest) and started the process of selecting a new one and renovating the new space. They came up with IL Creations, and they opened for business last month. This some of the best cafeteria food I've had. About 90% of the cold and hot food it pay-by-weight, so you can load up your plate with a variety of stuff. What is available changes on a regular basis, so you can't get bored. The flavoring of everything is great, definitely better than the typical cafeteria and more like what you would get at a decent restaurant. They also have pizzas which are good, as well as sandwiches and grill, which I haven't tried yet. They've also made improvements to the seating area. Smaller tables, chairs you can move, walls to decrease sound. It's really nice, and I think will be a huge asset to the center. A nice community space has been something we've really been lacking. I would probably give it 5 stars it if was a little cheaper... It averages about $7-8 a meal which is outside my comfort zone for a daily expenditure. Also the coffee prices are outrageous, especially since the center is proliferated with 25 cent coffee messes. I'd be great with paying a more for a decent cup, but not at 7x the price of everything else. But otherwise, hope it keeps up the great work!

When I arrived they asked if we had a reservation and we didn't so they asked us to hold. I was worried we wouldn't get in but was very happy they found space for us. I must say everyone we encountered were very friendly (a tad slow at times but made up for it with friendliness). Their signature sweet tea is to die for - the mint infused delight was so great it was worth a second glass! The milk and honey latte was a hot cinnamon joy as well. I ate the smothered chicken and biscuits. It has a slightly spicy Cajun sauce, I got to pick the style of eggs and I opted for scrambled. Good choice! The biscuits (2) were soft and the chicken and eggs paired with them well. The chicken was a bit tougher to cut so they should offer people a steak knife or something sharper than a butter knife to cut it. But that is a mild complaint because the dish was delish. I also tried the berry French toast. It was super thick and, while it was a bit light on berries, the flavor was good and so was the syrup. One of the two slices tasted a bit on the greasy side but I still ate quite a bit of it. I finished the meal off with a fabulous sweet potato bread pudding. I love bread pudding and this was my first sweet potato variation to the dessert. Me likey....me likey a lot! This is my new favorite bread pudding, hands down!
