Under new mgmt & under construction. Took over 1 1/2 to get order placed twice . Food came out 10 minutes after and they forgot my okra but definitely charged. Food was good but portion size didn't match price. I ordered 4 wings 4 perch. Perch was cut in 4's. So I paid 16$ for 1 piece of fish and 4 wings. Food is good. Wait is long. And you know "we" always start off high until we find the plug, so be prepared to pay for convenience and labor lol.. catch them slow , DONT EVEN TRY calling IN...you'll still have to wait at pickup. Good luck, worth the wait,if u can wait!

1st time trying them today. I order fried green tomatoes, greens, baked beans, peach cobbler, and the 4piece wing special, just to try the different foods... Overall, the food was decent... The sweet potato pie is really good, which he substituted for me because there werent any greens... Baked beans were delish😍 will be back again to try something different

Food was great once I got it. I was there for an 1hr n a half waiting. The worker messed the order up, n ran out of what I originally wanted but the manager took care of me. I was satisfied at the end.

Some people at work said that they were ordering lunch, and this was the location they picked; after checking out the menu, I decided that I wanted to have lunch from here with them.
After checking out the menu, I was surprised at the different options, and thankfully, since its Friday, I was able to get some tasty shrimp, French fries, and fried green tomatoes
The shrimp was so tasty! Breaded and seasoned and it came with some excellent cocktail sauce.
The fries were great! Crisp and just the right amount of salt, and there were some surprise hush puppies in with the fries.
I also enjoyed my

My parental unit took me here because she likes the $2.99 whiting fish special that runs daily until 3. I'm all for cheap eats. The place was nicely decorated. Apparently service was slow that day because a customer was complaining while we waited. The cashier was super nice and polite dealing with customers. We ordered and luckily we didn't have to wait for than the 20 minutes we were told. She caught the fact that the cook forgot to put fries in all three of our orders. She assumed because we didn't want bread that we didn't want fries. Say what now?! Issue was quickly resolved

Shrimp Hut East was just okay. I live around the corner from the location, so I decided to give them a try.

I purchased the Whiting dinner with chess pie and peach cobbler. Of course, the chess pie and the peach cobbler were on point! Yummy dessert did well.

For the meal, I received two pieces of Whiting fish with fries, no drink. While the pieces were large servings because they give you the whole fish but the taste was just OK. The fish were fried ok but in a way that the meat did not tender. The flakes were tough, even to the fish was fried regular (not hard). Because they give you the fish

I enjoy the the fish. Waiting is long at times, but they do have good business with a steady stream of customers. I will continue to frequent this establishment.

The only reason I gave 1 star is because the system requires that you give at least 1 star for a rating. This by far was a disappointing experience. I ordered a whole catfish sandwich and a perch sandwich. I received my order and went home, only to find out that the hot fish was placed in direct contact with the styrofoam box. The hot oil melted through the styrofoam box and left plastic on the food. Upon further examination the whole catfish was not breaded well and undercooked, while the perch was overly breaded and terribly overcooked. Not sure if they were rushing or what, but for the prices
