Long John Silver’s

The food was good, but the portion size was small. Good thing I brought my magnifying glass.
The place was disgusting. The floor needed to be mopped.
One bright side: the staff was friendly. The captain’s bell is my favorite part. I rang it repeatedly.

Good for fast food, but it is still fast food. Can’t eat too much without feeling bloated.
Customer service is great. Very friendly and helpful!

Though the food was good, but the service was so bad. I found them very racist. They kept laughing while taking the order.

I had the two fish and six shrimp platter. They made a fresh batch. It was hot and salty, so it is exactly as I liked it. I was greeted with the utmost courtesy. The food was delivered to my table without me having to get up. This has been a great place, and will always be on my books for when I need a fix of oily fried food.

This is one of my favorite fast casual restaurants in the Metroplex. sometimes you are just craving seafood, that does not cost an arm and a leg.
Long John Silvers offers up a plethora of seafood types from cod to family pleasing baskets and platters.
The interior is just your basic Long John Silvers, but immaculate and clean enough to impress Martha Stewart. You place your order at the counter and either pick it up when your order is called, 430 bring it to you.
Most meals are around $ 5 to $ 7 dollars with ulimited drink refills. Since it is on the east side of Plano, you are all but guaranteed to see some hot Hispanic men too.

The place looks like it is out of the 1970’s. The food is blah! Like the other reviewer said, everything is all cooked in the same oil, so it all taste the same. They are promoting bigger pieces of fish. The crust is too greasy. I liked it as a kid, because I didn’t know any better. Now I think I can do a lot better for a similar price at The Fish Shack. I know the quality at Fish Shack is way superior.

My family and co-​workers hate LJS, but I like the food. Whenever I’m the only one eating, I try to stop and get something. My liver on the other hand suffers for the next day or so while it metabolizes the meal.
I imagine my doctor would not approve of this meal.

I’ve come to this location a lot over the years. I have seen it go from bad to good many times. We stopped in today for lunch with the kids. I haven’t lived in Texas for the past 5 years so I had a craving for LJS.
It was a really pleasant experience. There was a cashier out cleaning tables and cleaned up a high chair for my daughter and brought it to the table. She also brought our food to our table and hats for the kids. Stop by for a quick bite if you have some time. They’re really friendly.

This LJS is just like any other LJS — same food, same service. This particular restaurant is pretty clean, and the ventilation must be working because the usual greasy smoke smell so often found in LJS is absent. The folks working here are nice and helpful. The ever changing menu still has all the great favorites — the white fish in batter (not cod, which they also sell as a premium fish), the shrimp, the clams, and the chicken «planks». They will also give you plenty of crumbles upon request, or a whale’s worth if you pay for them.
I know it’s not fashionable, but I LIKE LJS! It’s not high tech, nor is it pricy $ 20 per entrée «seafood». It’s just plain olé fish, fried spuds, creamy slaw, and malt vinegar. Simple, affordable, and pretty yummy, even if a larger portion of grease is part and parcel to your dining pleasure. It’s what fish tasted like in my youth, and still a delight in my not so youthful.. .

The reason most of us ignore the advice of physicians, budget gurus, and our moms, and get fast food is that we want it — you guessed it — fast!
I truly am sorry but this place would have gotten 0 stars if not for a polite order taker and tasty (if greasy) food. +1
Also, few fast food places offer any veggies, and the green beans were tasty, hot, and came with onions. +2
But that is all overshadowed by the incredible frustration f waiting over 10 minutes in the drive through at 3 pm with only one other car in the drive through!
I only ate here bc I was in SUCH a hurry, and needed to get back to work quickly. And ultimately I could have gone into a grocery store and paid for something fresh and cheaper. Mngmt needs to consider when an order takes this long and either make some changes or ask the car in front to pull into park until their food is ready.
People expect fast food, well, fast. Under 5 minutes in line, especially in drive through. Sorry folks :(it really was tasty, and the kids meal was a perfect amount without making me feel gross. Maybe I’ll give it another try someday. Too bad since it’s close to work.

The exterior has that New England look going for it. There were some flowers and a patio which was nice. The inside was a different story. The ceiling was low. Everything was clean, but it all looked like it was falling apart. Paint peeling off the ceiling, the drywall was separating in places, there were stains on the ceiling tiles. Terracotta tiles on the floors and a yellow wallpaper. Some red and blue tiles were slapped up in some random spots.
This has got to be the nastiest shit I have ever eaten. It’s bad even by fast food standards. The amount of grease, you would not believe. I don’t even know how they did it. When I deep fry things I have never managed to get so much grease to absorb into the batter or food, but Long John Silver manages to pull it off. The fried sides like the onion rings are pretty funny. Because they fry it in the same oil they fry the fish in, it will taste like fish. So I got some slightly fishy onion rings. The employees were all great. Very polite and fast.
The only upside is that this place serves Pepsi rather than Coke. This is my second and last time eating here. If I had remembered what the first time was like many years ago, I don’t think I would’ve come here for a second round.

Years ago we ate at least once or twice a month at this location. The food was always delicious but then it got really greasy. So fast forward 15 years to yesterday, June 30, 2013. I went up to this location and got fish dinners to go. I had a side order of 6 hush puppies. This Long John’s was not busy so it wasn’t like they were overcome with orders.
I got home, we settled down to eat and NO hush puppies. As we looked back on our days of eating at this location, we remembered that 4 out of 10 times, we got home with incomplete orders. I don’t know how hard it could be to look at the order on the monitor and complete it.
Well maybe we should wait 15 years before going back. By the way, the fish was still greasy but tasted good. And that is why I gave it 4 Stars. The 2 hush puppies that came with the meal were really delicious… shame we didn’t have the extra order I paid for to eat too.

Returned to this location because I had a pleasant experience once before. Ordered one piece fish and popcorn shrimp. The popcorn shrimp was alright. But the fish was old and possibly reheated. Fish doesn’t take a long time to cook. So, serving reheated/​old fish is just not done. Disappointed!

They are very slow but, the food is good.
