Extremely disappointed, First time and last time trying this restaurant. We arrived at 1:17 PM and placed a to-go order. We were not given an estimated wait time. It is now 2:45PM over an hour later and we are still waiting with no updates from staff. I completely understand that lunch rushes happen, but communication is basic customer service. If the kitchen is running this far behind, customers deserve to be told upfront so they can make an informed decision. I was waiting in the car with my toddler, who fell asleep around 1:30 PM while we were still waiting. Sitting in a parking lot for over an hour with no communication is unacceptable. If you value your time, I would not recommend ordering to-go from here. Respect for customers' time clearly isn't a priority. Updated Finally received our food at 3:45 to only be left more disappointed by the portion sizes. Only received one piece of fish for a dinner, yams are not homemade and Mac and cheese was dry. They offered a free drink at 2:40 pm which doesn't nearly compensate for time. They continued to take orders by phone and in person and couldn't handle demand. At a point when your kitchen is over 2 hours behind, you need to push out the orders you already have and turn people away. I would much rather have been turned away and to try them on a different day with a coupon. read more

The Spot - Fish Dinner - New American Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

Yum! We stumbled upon this place today and our whole family are huge fans! It took longer than expected to get our food but it all came out piping hot and super fresh! It was definitely worth the wait. I did not get enough pics but I'll add more next time. 2 of my kids had the burger and fries and they were great! Super soft and yummy buns! They were able to accommodate my sone and his allergies pretty well. He had the grilled chicken sandwich wrapped in lettuce with fries. It was well seasoned, hot and fresh! I got the fish and shrimp dinner and oh my! I won't be going anywhere else for fried fish! SSSOOOOOO GOOD! Not even a little greasy. So hot and fresh! read more

The Spot - Fried fish and shrimp with mac n cheese and potato salad - New American Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

Hands down one of the best restaurants in Chesapeake. If you haven't had their porkchop dinner with yams, or m&c or potato salad or any other sides, I really don't know what you're doing! I've tried different things off their menu and it always ends with me unapologetically licking them fingers. I know, I know! It's not a pretty picture, but I'm trying to stay right with God and tell the truth. The food is great, the service is on point, and it has a laidback and comfortable atmosphere. Not to mention the people are very welcoming and nice everytime I go in. It's a local family own restaurant that you need to try out. High scores all around for me. Ps. If your child is guarding a wiggly tooth that needs to come out just get the corn on the cob as a side. A win is a win! read more

The food was absolutely horrible. If your goal is to raise your blood pressure, the meals served here will definitely do the trick. Almost every item on the menu is fried, and the fried meats are excessively salty, making them difficult to enjoy. I ordered macaroni and cheese along with collard greens, but instead received pre-packaged macaroni and a side of green beans. When I inquired about this after paying, they informed me that they no longer had any more collard greens or homemade macaroni and cheese. I was deeply disappointed because they decided for me what I would eat instead of informing me that those items were unavailable, which would have allowed me to choose elsewhere after spending $40 for just two meals. This experience was a clear disappointment, and I will never return to this establishment. Good riddance. read more

The "momma that's a mess burger" is absolutely delicious the staff is also really friendly and quick to check in on you!

My first time visiting this establishment & it did not disappoint. It's a family owned business ran by integral people. The service is fair & polite, food always came hot & ready. This was by far the best grilled chicken sandwich I've had. It was cooked all the way through, juicy & well seasoned, so were the fries. If you're looking for some fresh soul food made with love, I highly recommend this place! read more

We figured we'd have a light meal while we wait for our grandson and this little cozy eatery was literally in front of us so we paroozed the menu online and they claimed to have apple and sweet potatoe jacks but when we asked the only dessert they had was chocolate chip cookies? That in my book says your food better be all that because the idea of Jack's warm and tasty were the draw! Anyhoo let's give them a shot wifey ordered a catfish dinner Ma Dear ordered the shrimp Dinner and I requested the cheeseburger and fries. Thier claim to fame was the cook everything to order so let's get it on, well it all came out hot the mac and cheese was cheesy the fries were golden brown the catfish was good but small so the compensated for the size by adding a few shrimp great customer service Now the food is Legit this place deserves and will get a return visit Stop by and enjoy this little Hidden Gem read more

Soul food in Hickory! Easy to miss, but worth checking it out. Food is hot, seasoned well, and cooked to order- some waiting will be needed. The young man at the counter is very polite and answers all your questions since they have specials not on the menu. There are tables there, but it feels more like a take out restaurant. I've been a couple of times and all the traffic has been to-go! Check them out! Wont be disappointed! Only reason didn't give it a 5 is because sides have been hit or miss for me- LOVE their candied yams and Mac and cheese. Wasn't too fond of the rice and gravy and green beans were ok for my taste. read more

I have literally known about them for 2+ years and every time the food has definitely hit the spot. You MUST try the Thirst - Mango Lemonade & Now&Later Juice. Honestly, all of the thirst drinks are bomb as they are made fresh by one of the owners! Also, the Mama Wings & Yams! Wheww I can honestly say my overall experience was a 9.5/10. I would love for you all to try them and let me know how your experience was! ( IG: @KeeLashayTV) . * .: 1457 Mount Pleasant Rd Chesapeake, VA 23322 read more

I told them not to fry them hard and they did it anyway plus it had no seasoning taste.. waste of 17 bucks read more

Stopped here on a Sunday afternoon and couldn't be more pleased! The gentleman greeting us at the register was very in tune and took our order and handled a conversation with us. Very cool! Our food was simply delicious! The ladies in the back cooking were awesome! Our food was perfect! Chicken sandwich, catfish sandwich, whiting sandwich and pulled pork. All good! My whiting sandwich reminded me so much of central Indiana fish fries volunteer fire departments, churches and nonprofits throw. Thank you for that! We had a wonderful visit and will certainly return!! read more

The first thing I'll say, is it was so fun watching the owner smile the entire time we were there, as though she was having a great time, and so proud of the food she was serving, and the full restaurant. And the food was fantastic! We had the chicken wings and pork chops, macaroni and cheese and collard greens and it was delicious! Go! We need more places like this, so go and keep them busy. You won't regret it! read more

Heard about this spot... so we had to try it out. Everything was good. I would eat here again. The green beans had an awesome flavor. I haven't tried the Jacks yet but they look good. Mac and cheese could have been better... it was just ok. read more

The Spot - New American Near Me - Chesapeake, Virginia

Just recently tried The Spot and was very impressed. Food was fresh and had amazing flavors. Will definitely be back!

Tried this place out for the first time and will definitely be back. Fish and collards were very fresh and seasoned well!

Ordered lunch with co workers today. All 6 of our orders went straight from the bag into the trash. My cheeseburger smelled like it was rancid meat. Don't waste your time or money. read more

GREAT FOOD! GREAT PRICES! HIDDEN GEM IN THE MOUNT PLEASANT AREA! The atmosphere is astonishing. This is a family owned restaurant that makes you feel welcome and defiantly fills the body with a good loving southern cooked meal. Try it, you will not regret it! Thank me later! Order recommendation: Mama Wings with a side of Yams and Collard Greens. Oh, and don't forget to garb your famous Pineapple Lemonade and Sweet Potato Jacks! read more

I just discovered this place in the Hickory section of Chesapeake. As of the past several years of being a resident of this friendly Virginia city, I've come to enjoy the many venues for barbecue. This place checks all the boxes: clean, great service and delicious food. Exceptional value all around. When in Hickory, eat at the spot. read more

Stopped by to check it out, glad we did! Had a fish and a shrimp dinner to-go. Both were good, batter had a spicy kick All the sides were delicious. read more

Great little place! Food was delish! Order to-go, had the wings and burgers & fries. Didn't order fries with the wings and they threw in an order on the house! Said "they go good with wings". Will be one of our regular go-to's for sure! read more

I had high hopes for this place but was disappoint by the quality of the products. I had gotten the deluxe burger with all the fixings and chili on top. I forgot the name of it but it had "mama" in the title. The patty, bun, and chili all seemed generic, like they were products from costco. The bacon and fries were great, however. If the owners did something more gourmet for the above mentioned products, I think the restaurant would do a lot better. It's unfortunate that Hotrodders is next door to compare to. read more
