Fish On Bun
LeeAndra M.

So yes, it is in a gas station, but don't let that deter you. I had to go back to make sure I wasn't exaggerating, but this food is absolutely delicious!! The reviews are accurate! The first time I had the shrimp n grits, the second time I had the fish on bun, both FIRE. The freshness and quality is there along with their signature creole sauce. You honestly can't go wrong if you're looking for an elevated grab and go meal! The owners are warm and welcoming as well, may their business continue to grow!

Fried shrimp and grits.

Currently has me in a CHOKEHOLD! For the record I don't eat grits...I wasnt raised on them...and I am on Day 2. Ive had the best fried SKINLESS whiting from Shrimp Over Bored. The fried shrimp and grits are on point. The portion is plentiful! Grits are perfect. Dont be fooled by the location....walk on in order at kiosk....I promise you won't be disappointed.

I was skeptical to eat here because of the location. So I ordered it to avoid going in and the food did NOT miss! I ordered the fish and grits with turkey bacon and green onions. All of the flavors were flavoring! To top it off, it wasn't expensive. 10/10 recommend.

I found this place via a social media food reviewer. I would not have known about this place otherwise. It is in an Amoco gas station. There is no signage outside of the gas station. This is truly a hidden gem! I had the Gumbo Grits which consists of grits, collard greens with smoked meat, sausage and sautéed or fried shrimp. It's a combination that seems...strange. But dammit it works and works well! The foundation for any grit bowel is, well, grits. If your grits ain't right, the rest won't matter. And these grits are excellent. Perfect texture and flavor. The collard greens are perfectly cooked with lots of smoked meat (turkey I believe). The shrimp are a very nice size and sautéed well. My wife had the Fish and Grits. What little I had of it was great. Service is great. The gentleman who runs the spot is friendly and gets your food out to you in a timely manner. The gas station is out of the way on a semi-desolate part of Georgia Hwy. 29/Roosevelt Highway BUT it is WELL worth the trip. Don't sleep on these grits ('cause you certainly will when you're done eating them)!

I had a great experience at The Original Big Daddy's Dish, and I want to give a special shout-out…read moreto Sydney. When I walked in, the restaurant was busy, and it was obvious they had a lot of orders to handle. Even with all that was going on, Sydney greeted me with a warm smile, made eye contact, asked how my day was going, and made me feel like a valued customer. She was friendly, engaging, and never seemed overwhelmed despite leading the team and keeping everything running smoothly. That's the kind of customer service that leaves a lasting impression. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was welcoming, and I can definitely see why this place stays busy. Great food is one thing, but outstanding employees like Sydney are what keep people coming back. Keep up the great work!

Nasty. Food. I visited this location 2 times...on July 20th…read more2026..and July 27 2026...after co workers ask me to try out their food...my purchase was their meatloaf dinner, with the sides of rice...yams...macaroni and cheese....i purchased a slice of sweet potato pie...1st visit the place wasn't crowed and close to closing...the meatloaf was basic no seasoning very bland..the red sauce on the meatloaf tasted as if they simply added bbq sauce..their rice was very dry....the yams were ok. The sweet potato pie, was flavorless. It tasted like a bland custard. July 27th visit..tried the meatloaf again. It was horrible. The mashed potatoes tasted sour, they ran out of cornbread so I asked for some white bread, the server, gave me a crazed look and said..I will see what I can do...the sweet potatoes were bland, and very little...i purchased a piece of white layered cake , with orange colored icing...the cake was definitely stale, and cold from constant refrigeration, which is to simply hide the staleness....i will never ever eat at another big daddy,s restaurant again...the cashier, before she ran up my purchase,asked me if I don't mind reading and answering a question displayed on the cash register monitor screen...that question was how much would you like to Tip.....not did you find everything ok...is there anything thing else I can do for you.. No simply how much do you want to tip.. Avoid this old national location at all Cost. The food is simply repulsive....and yes I gave a tip of 4.00 dollars to the cashier. And $10.00 dollars to the older cute waitress, who was so rude. She didn't say even thankyou..Avoid at all Cost. I recall around 2017..bid daddy had a restaurant location downtown, near the courthouse...i and my co workers went to try his food. I ordered spaghetti and to my surprise they put bbq sauce in their spaghetti.....all these years and their food and service is still on the bottom I

Three people had told me about this place. I went to a restaurant beforehand and really enjoyed it,…read moreand they said before you leave town, come in here. Then I looked it up on Yelp, and the people over at the hotel told me to come here as well. Man, I went in here being a brisket connoisseur. Trying to be healthy, for the sides I got the mixed vegetables and the greens. And that cornbread was sweet to perfection. I liked that. You're going to see the pictures below. I really enjoyed the place. Waitress was very nice and met people nice vibe!!!

It's good if you can have someone to share the food with, for sure. Cons: It was LOUD. We asked a few times if the volume of the speakers could be turned down, as the music was turned up to club volume, but we were told it's trivia night and the people needed to hear (there are two sections of the restaurant, I don't know why participants couldn't all sit on one side). It was difficult to talk and listen to friends who were literally right next to me. Once the dj and the host left, it was easier to talk, but my ears were ringing (until the next day). It's unfortunate because we chose this spot cuz it's nearby and I really wanted to catch up with a friend, but that didn't really happen. If you go, you might want to bring ear plugs.

The energy that is exuded from their social media pages, makes you want to support! The food was freshly prepared upon ordering(kiosk) and worth the wait. We ordered 2 catfish & fries, and 1 catfish/shrimp and fries. I do wish you could select a different side, as I wanted to try the greens or mac n cheese. There is a sign that says no substitutions, so fries it was. The fries are your basic frozen variety. The catfish was freshly fried, and was tasty. Cold lemonade accompanied each box. The service is exceptional at MetroWest, as the owner takes pride in what his business brings to the community. We look forward to returning to try the salmon Philly next!

When I walked in I was very disappointed to hear that they only had collard greens fried and onion rings as a side. No mac and cheese! No sweet potato soufflé ? 2 of the things you advertise the most? Blowed. I still got a 2 piece whiting and a salmon over rice. Well, after shaking off the initial disappointment I got to the food. The whiting was fried and seasoned well and there was a great portion. There was an abundance of tasty crinkle fries. A little too crunchy but it was good. The onion rings were also go The assuming baked salmon was very good. The salmon was cooked to perfection and not overcooked. The glaze was good as well. The yellow rice was also seasoned and cooked well although it could have been a tad more tender. The greens were super tender and seasoned well. The food and the customer service saved the day and stopped me from saying 1 and done. I'll be back when I can verify they have all the advertised sides!
