I've been wanting to try this spot for a while now and finally decided to stop by on a Friday night. I remember this place used to be to be a hibachi carry out of some sort not too long ago. However I've been seeing their fried rice online and it grabbed my attention because of the veggies and the dark color it had. It reminded me of how the fried rice from the Chinese carry out used to be in the 90's early 2000's. For some reason nowadays when you order fried rice , there tends to be nothing inside of it besides onions and bean sprouts. What happened to the peas and carrots!!!!! I entered the store on a Friday night--which had only 1 customer who was waiting on her order. I walked to the register and was greeted with a smile from a polite young lady. I ordered the fried shrimp with shrimp fried rice, which is actually one of their combos. I believe it was $11.99/$12.99 something like that, but you get 6 shrimp or you can get 12. They have a nice amount of t of seating available if you want to dine in, I believe they have a restroom for customers available as well. The store appeared clean as well as the parking lot. The food came out quickly, cashier showed it to me before bagging ,it which was cool. Everything looked great. The shrimp were jumbo, I highly doubt you need 12 pieces unless you have a large appetite. The shrimp were lightly coated, not panko breaded. Cooked to perfection and perfectly golden brown. The rice was tasty-I did add one packet of soy sauce and that was all I needed. The food stayed hot for a very long time, and my shrimp didn't get soggy before I arrived at my destination. I will return and try something different the next time. Give this spot a try, I think they need a little bit of Yelp help.... read more

I love Chinese, but it just doesn't taste the same anymore. I've found Fried rice to be undercooked and underseasoned. The individuals who answer the phones and take orders are rude, and the overall quality is lacking. I saw this place on TikTok and noticed that it was located in my old neighborhood, so I decided to give it a try. The employees were kind and walked me through the menu, which led me to order catfish and fried shrimp rice. Y'all, Chinese food in the District Heights/Forestville area hasn't tasted this good since the 90's. My combo meal cost around 15 bucks, and it included a yellow drink. I won't call it lemonade, because it was old-school lemon-flavor Kool-Aid. It was sooo good, and if you put it in the freezer and added Henny, it would make a great evening. I will be back! read more

Nothing was good. I got a combination fried rice. I ended up throwing it away because it was stale. The rice was crunchy. I had no flavor. I also got a steak and cheese egg roll, which wasn't tasty. read more

They have this dish that is so good. The Grilled Shrimp and you can get a side with fried rice or corn or fries or cabbage. I love this dish it's seasoned so well. I also can't leave without saying the food is kind of price, but if you're a foodie. Cost is no object. I would recommend this spot to anyone. Now as for customer service, no conversation other than how can we help you with your order. As for Ambiance, that's is definitely on SUB ZERO. A few table and chairs for if you chose to dine in. You'll see most people are on the go. IN AND OUT. read more

Good food and good customer service. read more

Delicious fried shrimp but they were a bit salty and I believe they used a LOT of flour in the coating. Even still they were EXTREMELY well seasoned! Now...the FRIED RICE, the FRIED RICE, the FRIED RICE! I have lived in the DMV since 1994 (Chicago native) and had not had a GOOD fried rice since I've been here! All fried rice here is LIGHT SKINNED and that ain't lit" for me! In fact, I'd never seen light skinned rice with PEAS AND CARROTS until I came HERE! Their fried rice was the rice color of choice! I don't care for the peas and carrots so I will request they not put in there the next time. All in all the food is yummy and I will continue to order from them! read more

Great customer service and delectable food has me a repeat customer. read more

This is SEAFOOD - Shrimp Po'Boy and Shrimp Fried Rice - A fried chicken sandwich with lettuce, tomato, and pickles, accompanied by fried shrimp and fried rice in a takeout box. - Seafood Near Me - District Heights, Maryland

Ordered through DD! Fried rice was good and plentiful. Tastes like that old skool (80s/90s) fried rice! Will definitely get again. I chose shrimp as the protein and was a bit disappointed that they use salad shrimp but it was plentiful and the flavor on point so I can rock with it. Wings were fried hard just like I like them and still crunchy when they arrived but VERY light on seasoning. The wings were also small so they gave me 4 (I ordered 3) to make up for it which I appreciated. If they offered seasoning for the wings (lemon pepper, etc) it would be 5 stars. read more

I had fish and huge whole chicken wings my only problem the chicken were big and good but wasn't done. I had to place them in the oven.

I have been to "This is Seafood" several times now and it never disappoints. My go-to is the chicken and shrimp combo meal. I've also had the po-boy sandwich, the fried fish, and the house salad. Everything I get from here is on point. I'm actually surprised that I hadn't reviewed this place already! The service is always convenient and efficient. I call ahead and my order is ready for pickup. I consider this a takeout, but they do have seating and a TV if you want to wait for your order or dine in. Every time I've visited, the place has always been clean. Definitely recommend. read more

I got the 12 piece jumbo shrimp fried and I must say they are AMAZING. Super giant shrimp with a nice crispy coating and very nice light seasoning. This is only my 2nd time trying this place and I recommend the shrimp platter as I haven't tried anything else but their chicken which was good too. Food is served streaming hot and fresh. A bonus about this place is they show you your for before bagging to make sure this is what you ordered. I will definitely be back to try more items. read more

Food has been good. First tried this chain in Clinton Md. Was glad to see they had one up in District Heights. Customer service has been A-1. But check your food before leaving. I thought I did only to find out I was shorted 1 piece of catfish. Which is a no no because there is an up charge for catfish. In their defense, when your food is ready he does open the box and let see your food. He did that for me and I asked was that 2 pieces of catfish and he said yes. But the piece was so big I think he thought there was 2 pieces. I ordered online so I think the cook read my order wrong. Anyway I will be back to try other things. Shrimp fried rice, whiting and catfish have all been tasty. read more

I ordered a steak and cheese with no tomatoes. Tomato's were still on there but I told them it's okay. My 3 stars not going towards that, it's including towards my first visit before last I ordered fried shrimp - they never gave me my drink. I had to turn around when I got home & go back to get it. I shouldn't have to remind anyone about my drink as high as the prices were. I ordered seasoned fries (additional $2.50+) just to realize the seasoning was available in the front. I paid $2 something just for you all to sprinkle the seasoning, when I could just do it myself?!?!!! The guy in the front made a smart remark saying they put the "seasoning on all of the fries". No matter which way you put it - that's a scam. Then you forgot my drink? Back to the steak and cheese from my last visit it was seasoned very well & the roll was very soft! But they left the steak on the grill top too long so the meat was crunchy & burnt. They are very nice there, but I don't believe for one second if I went to complain about my steak and cheese that they would've cooked it to my liking. The guys who took my order both times were very nice! read more

I was skeptical at first since this is more of a carry-out restaurant but the food was excellent. I don't know who thought of the Honey Garlic Ranch Shrimp and Chicken over Fries concoction but I'm glad they did. It was delicious! If you're watching calories...DON'T DO IT! LOL The portions are crazy! I'll definitely try them again read more

Chicken Wings, Chicken Wings , Chicken Wings. My go to on MLP. The customer service can switch on shifts

It's a NO for me. Catfish is my favorite, but this establishment ruined my Friday night fish meal. Way too much salt used in the breading. And their fries were mushy and tasteless, even ketchup could not save them. Do yourself a favor and skip this place. read more

The wife and I tried this place for the first time last week and I must say we were very satisfied! The inside had seating and looked very clean. The costumer service was decent as well. She got the whiting po boy combos w/cheese fries and I got the 4 piece chicken tenders combo w/cheese fries. Her poboy was delicious! Perfect amount of fish and toppings and the sauce that comes with it was good! I was craving tenders but these were not it! They just seemed to be too battered and something I would get for a child. The cheese fries, however, were delicious!!! I'm looking forward to going back to try other items on the menu! read more

Had the seafood fried rice. Was okay, a lot of crab shells in the dish. Also had wings and fries. Their hot sauce and mambo sauce is good

This restaurant is ok but the guy at the cash register has a nasty attitude. I'm a paying customer that cannot wash my hands to dine in. When I was ordering my food, the guy also had a nasty attitude, I can just feel the negativity coming off of him as I was ordering my food. He was rushing me as I was choosing a side order. I don't know what he's going through but if you're at work, you need to put that shit to the side. They also have flies so don't dine in. read more
