JJ Fish & Chicken

Decent, customer service for the area. The quality of the food was awful. Im not a fan of this type of “restaurant” but came with a open mind. A family member used them to cater and it was a poor choice. The food is covered in a heavy amount of breading/batter to an extent you have no actual protein. I felt like it was done to mask the fact the proteins were such low quality. I’d suggest you go elsewhere, unless you’d like to eat fried batter 🙂

Their food is delicious! I would always soak my catfish in hot sauce and never knew how good the actual fish was. It is so good! Catfish nuggets, filets or perch. BOMB!

Awful food for an awful area. Just shut it down already. What’s even more gross is soggy fried chicken…

Delicious fish, chicken, fries, and coleslaw. We love JJ’s in downtown and were excited to get take-out from this location. Awesome COVID practices, great prices, and pure tastiness. The breading was not too thick or oily, just crunchy and light. Clean catfish goodness too. Definitely stop by if you’re in the area!! A plus!

First off people….this is fast food not sit down white table cloth restaurant impress your Tinder date establishment. If you are after Westside Chicago fried foods served hot, that’s what you will get. Only thing…. check ur bag before you leave bc they left out our coleslaw and side of spaghetti. They also have lotsa desserts…cake, pudding and cookies. We ordered fried chicken, wow. Fried catfish and Italian beef sandwich, both decent.

I love JJ’s. Coming from Atlanta, I was excited to find out that they had one near where I was staying. A guys who referred to himself as the owner (Billy) refused to serve me because my car declined. I told him my bank just texted me asking if I had made the purchase. I texted back yes- enabling the purchase to go through. Billy said “I’m suppose to keep the card” and I then got pissed and golf him he’s not keeping my card. I threatened to call the police, then he gave it back– smooth! I would definitely recommend another JJ’s.

I used to come here often. But not anymore, owner reprimanded me for giving a dollar to a homeless man that I can tell really needed help. Made me feel like crap, i don’t care to give my business to anyone that doesn’t care for the neighborhood.

One star for service. I ordered chicken – you know the item that is in the name – along with other items. Guy says the chicken will take 20 min, I say okay. 20 min later I get the food. Walk to my car and see there’s no chicken. So I go back inside the guy says “yeah, I didn’t charge you for it because I didn’t put the order in” with a look his face of complete confusion to my anger. Made no sense. I had to wait 20 min for the other items, so why didn’t you put my order in for the chicken?. So then I had to go to the Popeyes next door and wait another 10 min. I may have to go the extra 20 min next time.

I’m only giving 2 stars bcz the cashier was very pleasant. The owner should be stripped from owning a jj fish. I was in the area and decided to get my mom some catfish filets. They clearly cut the filets in half, probably thirds based on how thin the filets were. My mom was disappointed and I felt ripped off. If I’m ever in the area again I know not to come here. Who knows what else they do to get over! The owners should feel ashamed of themselves!

The fish is fresh and delicious and the fries to die for. I love JJ Fish. I also love their chicken. Their prices are reasonable and affordable.
