My hubby introduced me to J&J years ago… the 1st spot was the one on Boughton, which was terrible! After that we’ve always gone to this location by Walmart and we have never had a bad experience ever not even with the old management! Just had 2 large chicken tender meals on Sunday and as always cover Everything with extra hot sauce and it was delish!!! Maybe next time I’ll try the chicken burger… but definitely addicted to the tenders! On a side note. we just moved back from Florida and we hit this up straight away! Keep up the excellent work!

OK I admit that I went here and hit up a(beef) burger. I know it’s not their area of expertise, but I’m a sucker for burgers. J&J were recently advertising(halal) burgers, so I had to execute as it’s a local, convenient option. The burger is more so Indian/Pakistani(IndoPak) with a «masala»(spices) touch to it. I don’t mind a masala burger, but if I wanted one, I’d get some at home. They should make a regular, traditional burger instead. If you’re not ethnic to IndoPak, it might be an interesting, flavorful burger for you. But next time, I’ll stick to the name of J&J Fish and Chicken and focus on the fish instead. Also, fries could be better.

Last time I was here awhile ago the fish nuggets were nice and plump this time they are thin and hard. This place resembles the inside of a gas station toilet! Nasty!

I decided to try this place since I’ve heard they are under new management. We ordered some chicken, perch, catfish and shrimp. The fish didn’t come with any tarter sauce. I had the chicken and I was so disappointed. The wings had very little meat on them, and were flavorless. I was left hungry and upset.

Unfortunately, this was not a good take-out experience for me. I ordered two catfish dinners(all steaks). My fish was tough and it tasted like the oil it was cooked in was old. It was obvious they fried it in flour as opposed to a cornmeal batter, the fries were burnt & the coleslaw was just wrong.

This food was horrible! tonight I ordered Catfish fillets, I don’t know what kind of fish they are passing off as Catfish but it had no taste and it was not catfish. I eat catfish all the time so I know the texture and taste of catfish. I will never go back to this place.

My husband bought lunch for us on 11/1/2012…when I open up the bag I bit into on of the the wings… Omg they were not cooked all the way… I call the next day because I been sick… I knew it was the food because I couldnt eat anything really but soup since I ate the food. so called them and The manger was very nasty with me saying it wasn’t the food… I was at work when my husband brought it to me plus it was 12pm when I got it n I didn’t leave work until 4:30… Beware…

I have been coming here for quite awhile now– to clarify this is the JJ fish south of Boughton road on 53 basically next to the Wal Mart. There is another JJ fish East on Boughton which is totally inferior– not even close. The fish and wings here are great– some of my favorite fried fish out there although to be honest fried fish never really seems to vary much. The owners are very friendly and maintain that upbeat friendliness even in the midst of crazy lunch rushes. Definitely order ahead if you are going to show up between 11 am and about 1 pm as the lunch rush can lead to long wait times. I have never waited 40 minutes but at times the wait could be 20 if it is super busy. Added another star-this place is consistently very good-very fresh food and now they seem to be remodeling too. Great to see.

Wow this place has gone down. I used to frequent this location beginning in ’06 up until I moved to another town in ’09. It used to be very good, I guess they have some new owners now because I went today and it was a totally different experience. First of all, all the prices on the menu board were removed and blank, so I had no idea what anything cost. I found a raggedy paper menu I used to order. I will admit the people were very nice though. I ordered 6 wings and fries for $ 5.99. While waiting I noticed there were flies everywhere, boxes all over the counter and a wal-mart shopping cart in the hallway leading to the restroom. Just atrocious! After about 15 minutes I got my food and left. My wings were dry and over cooked and the fries had no taste. Not going back I’ll just go to the one on Boughton.

I was a big fan of JJ fish when I lived in Chicago and loved their fried catfish. When I found out they opened their first store on Boughton Rd, I immediately drove on over for some catfishy goodness. The first couple of visits were good and my catfish was just like the ones I had from the city, but the quality went down hill after that and I never came back… When I saw that they open a second store, I decided to give suburban JJ Fish another try. So far, my orders were on on par to what I had in Chicago which makes me happy as I don’t have to go to the city anymore for my fried catfish fix. The owners are quite friendly, as well. I suggest that you order ahead because it takes some time for them to fry up your order. If you don’t call, expect to wait 25 — 40 minutes to get your order. They do have other things on the menu like fried chicken, fried mushrooms, and fried… just about anything. Not really healthy food, but if you are in the mood for fried stuff, you can find it here. I’ve had the fried mushrooms and they were pretty good, but I usually stick to the catfish steaks. I also like the hot sauce that they give you on the side and usually order extra since my mom doesn’t like to share…

Wow, just terrible. I can’t believe this place is still open. I went there with some coworkers for lunch, and we literally almost left the moment we walked in the door. The insane collection of dust on the screen door and grease dripping from the sprinkler heads should have been enough to get us to rethink our lunch decision. Full disclosure here, I actually didn’t order anything, since they didn’t have a Buffalo Chicken Sandwich on the menu, but my coworkers fought off gut instinct and placed there orders.(I’m now thankful they didn’t have what I wanted!) I kid you not, most of the food was thrown away back at the office and these people made corn dogs and frozen White Castle cheeseburgers for lunch. The food from this JJ Fish was that horrible. One person described his fried chicken as tasting of soggy sawdust. Anyone who had fish mentioned it tasted old, and fishy. Many had bones or scales under the batter. Seriously, avoid this place. Go during lunch and see how few people go in, that should be enough to deter you from eating here.

All previous reviews must have been before these owners. The new ownersfail at life!!! This place was a dump!!! If I could give negative stars I would. Got the catfish an shrimp lunch. I threw away everything. I wouldn’t serve this food to starving wild pigs. This place needs to be shut down! I havent the slighest clue how these people are in business. My catfish was old, fishy and slimey because it still had the skin on it. If you want to build your immune system and contract a communicable disease, I recommend eating here.

I enjoyed my recent visit to JJ Fish of Bolingbrook on Route 53. I did not like the other location on Boughton Rd next to Tailgaters, although they are not the same owners. This location in next to Walmart just north of I-55 on Route 53. The Catfish Nuggets are huge and the portions for a small $ 5.99 order is super generous. The cashier is always smiling and friendly. There is a few tables incase you want to dine in. Love the hot sauce!

I grew very fond of J&J fish in the city, and was happy to find one out here in suburbia. The selection here was just as good as any in the city, their menu including buffalo wings, fried chicken wings, fried perch, fried salmon, and a few different sides(basically the normal stuff you find at places where everything is cooked in the deep-fryer.) Special combos were available for all items. They also had some red potato salad that was really good. The hot sauce they give you on the side is plenty hot, even though the barbecue sauce is rather generic. The only complaint I had about this location was the time it took to complete the order. I guess they had a lot of phoned in orders while we were waiting for ours, and they forgot to start our order. It took almost twenty minutes to get our food. But the gizzards were definitely worth the wait!
