I used to always see this place popping off but it's an odd location so I never went. Figured I may as well try and there's a reason it's always so busy. If you were to ask my favorite food in all of jax it would easily be this places fried shrimp. They are fresh, consistent, and give you a ton. The staff also makes you feel like you're their friend they haven't seen in a bit and normally I hate people talking to me.

Food is incredibly fresh! Chicken gizzards... omg... sooo good fresh and crunchy! The whitening was s little fishy for me but still good. And fried okra....yesss!!! Definitely the moms and pops spot for some good hot fish, chicken, and the works.

People there were super friendly. Seemed like a staple in the area. Not the newest joint in town obviously, but adds that factor of a place that has long been standing for 2 generations or so. Chicken tenders were on point and so were the fries. Hard to find places that are as bang for buck and glad to still see places like this. They even have a 5.99 daily lunch special.

Outstanding food. I had the Chicken strip dinner and my girlfriend had the shrimp and catfish. The chicken strips were arguably better than popeye's. Don't sleep on Louisiana Fish & Chicken.

I ordered a 20 piece wing with a side of fries and I was very pleased. I’m pretty sure I got more than 20 wings (definitely not complaining) and I liked how they put everything in one big tin for me. I don’t know what type of seasoning they put on the chicken but it’s addicting. It looks like some type of garlic or onion powder. Whatever it is, keep using it! I will definitely be returning.

This is a drive thru place. No inside seating. The fish tastes fresh and the portions are large. Price is great. Have already been back!
