    The food is amazing! I saw this business on the news and decided to try it out the next day…read more The owner was the only person on the truck, so there was a bit of a wait. He'd take a few orders, then cook and bring out the orders before taking the next one. I like that he has the estimated cook time on his menu. The owner/cook was very personable and mentioned he'd been really busy likely to people seeing him on the news. I ordered the catfish basket and the shrimp and lobster tots. The fish basket came with 2 large pieces of fish and an order of fries. The fries were seasoned well and cooked perfectly. The fish was also very well seasoned and the fish itself was really good. The tots were really good and covered in cheese. There were bell peppers and onions in it which gave it somewhat of a cajun feel. The food was so good that I had to go back and try the remoulade sauce, which also really good. Overall I was very pleased with the food and the service. I believe he's open from 11-2 and again from 5-7, so be sure to check em out!

    If you haven't had this catfish you're missing out! I first had this fish by the luck of a draw at…read morea Farmers Market. I just so happen to be at the right place at the right time! This guy is friendly and nice. He engages with the customers as much as possible while cooking just saying hello. If you see this food truck you better try the fish or shrimp. If not you're missing out. The first time my family and I had the fish it was sooo good and ever since we have been looking for this truck when we want fish. This time around we tried the shrimp tacos and got fish and they both were delicious. So I suggest the fish and shrimp tacos. He also offer crab cakes and Po Boys.

    This was our first time going here and we had a great time. Very much a southern comfort food…read morerestaurant and the portions were large and very good. Our server did a fantastic job of keeping the drinks full and ensuring we has a wonderful dining experience. The catfish is great as well as the fried chicken and there are plenty of sides to choose from. The building has old southern charm and is very relaxing. Next time in Jackson, we will deffinetly go back!

    Had the utmost unprofessional experience in all my years in the food industry. Upon entering the…read morelarge and empty restaurant I asked for table for four and was aware of their "waiting to seat an entire party at once" preference, but asked if they would kindly seat my 95 year old grandmother and I while I ordered appetizers as my parents were a few minutes behind. We were then met with a young lady who said, "we prefer not". I guess southern hospitality is dead and non existent. As they do not have any two tops I said, "please go ahead and seat us". I ordered an appetizer and asked for HOT peel and eat shrimp, She dropped them on the table before I could ask for lemon and hot sauce only to disappear, never to return. My parents arrived and joined us at the four top and we were ignored for the next 20 min (punishment for not obeying the teenage hostess who preferred we not sit). Once we were able to get the attention of another server to ask for our server, again rebuffed and ignored. Let me also share the restaurant was empty. Long gone are days of properly trained staff that understand what the hospitality business is about . . . "Service"! She was rude, inept and never filled a glass removed a dirty dish when asked and had an all around bad attitude. I now understand all the one star reviews. I asked twice for her to remove the pile of dirty dishes as she slumped off with empty hands. The third time when I asked she said "we clean em when y'all leave". It would be one thing to overlook the sophomoric behavior of the petulant waitress if the food was good or even decent. The shrimp were cold after requesting them hot, the catfish was so overly seasoned and salty, I found it inedible. I will say they have a decent hushpuppie. They should rethink the name and call it, "Decent Hushpuppie Cabin".

    Most of the food was good but none of it was special. It took a VERY LONG TIME to get our food,…read moreand the restaurant wasn't full. We were pleased with the fried pickle appetizer and the amount we got (would order it again if I go again); however, we were very disappointed with the very small pieces of minced-meat buffalo chicken appetizer, which were about the same consistency as McDonald's chicken nuggets. And even with happy hour discount, the price was way too expensive for 5 small fake chicken nuggets. The shrimp and grits were good, but not extra good. The sausage was the best part but I only had 4 small thin pieces on the edge of the plate. The portions were okay, but as you can see in the photo, the cup for the corn was only half full, and there weren't many potatoes. The regular sized chicken looks huge compared to them because they were small. Don't bother to order happy hour drinks!!!!!!!! If you're going to order drinks, avoid the happy hour watered-down, no-flavor drinks and pay the high price for the specialty drinks. The happy hour drinks were terrible. I mean terrible! At best they tasted like extremely watered down Kool-Aid. But the higher-priced top-shelf margarita was very good. HEY MANAGEMENT, if you're going to have a happy hour, make it a good one so people will come back. We also had water, but it tasted like the glass had chemicals in it from not being properly rinsed. We requested different water, but sadly it was the same. After bringing the second water and it just sitting there, the server never checked to see if it was better. The server was nice, but he talked way too much and was overly exaggerated in his actions. The other employees seemed mad or like they didn't want to be there. On the way to the restroom, I passed someone going both ways, and I got nothing but a blank stare. Smile people!!!! It costs nothing and brings your customers back!!!! Overall, I'd go there again but definitely try something else, except for the fried pickles. But if the next experience isn't much better, I will not go again.

    The Bloody Mary was delicious! The Bang bang shrimp were good. I wasn't too thrilled that you ONLY…read moreget 4 oysters tho. Like who sells 4 instead of the half of dozen! That's ludicrous! The alligator bites were good too.
