Reviews Overview
Most Liked
Customers rave about the catfish, often cited as the best in the area. The batter's crispiness paired with well-seasoned fish creates a perfect flavor profile that keeps patrons coming back. Plus, the portions are generous, providing excellent value for the price range of $10 to $20 per meal. Many also appreciate the fast service, allowing for quick takeout without compromising quality. The menu's variety, including fried shrimp, oysters, and chicken strips, offers something for everyone, making it a popular destination for families and friends alike.

Most Disliked
While many enjoy the fast service, some patrons find that high traffic during peak hours—especially on Saturday evenings—can create longer than expected wait times. During these times, seats may fill up quickly, challenging patrons looking for a dine-in experience. Additionally, new visitors sometimes feel overwhelmed by the extensive menu options, which can take time to navigate. A few reviews mention that the seafood can be overly greasy at times, particularly when it involves fried offerings, so requesting less oil might be a good strategy for those who prefer a lighter touch.

This place needs to be advertised a little more. The Crisp on the fish and shrimp is phenomenal. The fries are fresh. 5 out of 5 for me.

John's Seafood has a big menu with a ton of options. I was attracted by the catfish reviews but feeling oysters. The fried rice offering was a surprise. I had six oysters and the shrimp fried rice. Oysters, nice size, fresh, fried rice was decent. Next time I will try the catfish.
