They rarely have barbecue and they won’t answer the phone if you try to call ahead. Unless you feel like wasting your time going over there it’s not worth it. The food is excellent though. Good luck if you get any.

Been coming here since they first opened. Never a problem. Great food, great service,the works. Guess they are getting too big for there own good. I ordered 1/2 lb ribs 1/2 lb sausage and 8 cajun wings. Opened box and sausage was missing.but ribs were there. They took it brought it back and sure enough there is the sausage. Yum!!! So fast forward to home on couch tucked in to watch a movie and wings down for the night. Opened the box and db's a rib. WHAT THE HELL? NO RIBS !!! They took the ribs out and gave me brisket. I'm sure it's his but I'm not a brisket fan. Called 6 times back to back. Phone pick up hang up.IM DONE!

Came here because I was craving wings and was told that TJ's has "the best wings in Arlington". Discovered that TJ's catfish and wings combined with a barbecue joint called MJ's barbecue so now they serve both. Even before we got to the entrance, we could smell the barbecue from the outside. It smelled so appealing. When we got inside, we were greeted by friendly staff. We ordered the 10 piece wings, a side of cornbread, a side of fried okras, and the internet infamous loaded potato with barbecue brisket and cheese.When we got our food, oh boy was that potato loaded. It was so loaded you couldn't even see the potato. But that proportion was just right--I hate whenever I finish my toppings and all I got is potato left. No, they give you enough so you can have a topping with every bite. The barbecue that they use on top is sweet--kinda reminds me of Spring Creek barbecue. It was some damn good potato. Every hearty, definitely gets you full.The spicy barbecue wings tasted good. Wasn't the best I've ever had, but good wings nonetheless. The spicy barbecue tastes like barbecue sauce mixed with buffalo sauce but there's more buffalo than barbecue. It's listed as spicy but it's not really that spicy in my opinion. The wings come drenched in sauce so you can't complain about that. It comes with a side of ranch and that ranch is pretty darn good. I usually don't like ranch but I can recognize some good ranch when I taste one.The fried okras are the same as any fried okra out there. These came out hot and fresh and crispy though. So, yes it's plain but it's good quality.The cornbread is also plain cornbread. Nothing special about it (as a side. There's two types of cornbread, the entree one and the one as a side. I got the side). It is good though. Gives a pretty good aftertaste.This establishment also serves daiquiris so next time I come I might wanna try them.The restaurant was clean. Ambiance is roomy and has multiple TVs hooked up to the wall. You could watch a game while eating here. There's a self serve area off to the side where you can get paper plates, utensils, drinks, napkins, to go boxes, and restrooms as well along with a sink with paper towels and soap on the outside which I think is convenient.Honestly I'm glad I found this place. Would come back.

The Catfish was good, but we really drove all the way from Lancaster, Tx for the BBQ. They were sold out. You need to do more BBQ cooking in the future.

Great catfish. Customer service friendly. Highly recommend.
It was nice and so was the staff. I was not impressed with the monster baked potato. Meat was very tender and I love the idea, I think the bbq needs a kick to it. It was missing something. I think it destroyed the entire baked potato. Then there was a service charge on my receipt. $2.35. I wonder what that's for. I gave a $15 tip at the register for support. No one waited on me, I served my own drink, utensils. I ordered my food, sat down and ate. So, what is the service charge? The girl bringing out the food whi didn't speak? I would like to have a better understanding to what it was for
