Visited from Michigan because We heard the food was great. And it was. What took away from our visit was the 1pm reservation -we arrived at 1pm and still had to wait until 2pm to sit down. We waited another hour and 10 minites to get our food. The number of employees we saw was 5: 2 in the kitchen and 3 wait staff. For about 25 tables. The service: the waiter was friendly but clearly frazzled under the busy conditions. He forgot to bring out food sides (we never got the sides, even after reminding him- he tried his best I guess) most times we had to call someone over to us for help, no one checked in to see if we needed anything.Over all the food was at least an 8. Would have given a 10 if we got all our food. It was pretty loud with the music- maybe turn down a bit. Floor was very slippery all over and the bathroom was out of soap and paper towel. I don"t think we will dine in again. Maybe we will do carryout only next time. Oh and after all this they automatically add gratuity to the bill so that sucks when the service you get is sub par at best. We spent 3 hours in this place and that was gut renching.Bill was 289.00 for 7 people. Tip was 41.00 auto added to bill.

My friend and I stopped by for an early dinner, drawn in by the mouthwatering images we'd seen on Instagram. I opted for the Fish Fry with catfish, baked Mac & Cheese, and greens, and was pleasantly surprised by the generous portion size and flavorful taste. However, our excitement waned when my friend's salmon bites appetizer turned out to be disappointingly bland. Her main dish, the Fish Fry with Haddock, fries, and sweet potatoes, suffered a similar fate. When we brought this up with the waitress, hoping for a resolution, the manager's response left us taken aback. He dismissed our feedback, implying that our expectations for well-seasoned food were unreasonable and even made a concerning remark about "you people." Despite our attempts to calmly address the issue, the manager remained confrontational, leaving us feeling blamed and attacked for simply expressing our dissatisfaction. This encounter left a lasting impression, raising questions about whether our gender influenced the manager's response and highlighting the importance of respectful customer service regardless of one's background.

Quite possibly the best fried catfish I have ever had. Huge planks and very crispy breading. Tartar sauce is made from scratch and for sure the best I have ever had. Server was very friendly and helpful. 10 out of 10. Highly recommended

I really like this place alot i come here often and the food is great but i fasure have to give some constructive criticism. The only thing that I absolutely do not like is how hard it is to place orders to go. When you call nobody ever answers. It was last Wednesday I was calling to place an order to go and no answer. I called like 20 times. I tried to order on Uber eats and it says the restaurant is closed when in fact it is open. The Uber app still says it’s closed even right now and it’s open. It’s been saying that for at least 2 weeks. So anyway I get there and NOBODY was in the restaurant it was completely empty so I’m confused as why nobody answers the phone and the waiters had no answer for me, it also does take a while to make the food so of course I want to call it in so by the time I get there my food is ready. I really really hope they can get this whole ordeal together bc I really do like to eat here

A friend told me about this spot. The food was okay, I tried something I have never had... fried crab. I think I like boiled crab better but it was still good. I had Mac and cheese as my sides. Both were good. Nice place to have lunch or dinner.

This place is a hidden gem everyone must try! It's soooo flavorful and clearly made with love. We tried a variety of menu options and we were not disappointed. Customer service from Hunter was A1! Def my new spot. Do not skip this!

Food was delicious, staff were friendly and welcoming. Only thing is food took a while, BUT definitely worth the wait. Seasoned to the T, and fresh for sure.

Restaurant had multiple open tables with few patrons seated at table. Took over 50 minutes to get seated despite being told it was a 30 minute wait. Took 20 minutes for server to come to table. Took another 15 minutes for her to come back to take our order. Took 1 hour 10 minutes to get our food. Food was good but vibe was completely destroyed. Several customers at tables and lobby left due to extremely long wait. Worst I have experienced. Although food was good, can't take the chance of going back and having that experience again. ABSOLUTELY AWFUL...YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!

Short staff I'm assuming. 45 min wait to be seated. About 5 parties were seated. Decided to do take out. Came back to pick up food, no one addressed me for about 4-5, several young employees.

worst place to order online from . they don’t communicate with eachother to communicate with guest . waited over an hour , was told it’ll be done in said minutes, came back & they said they never received my order but knows for me to cancel on doordash ?? good food , horrible wait .

Andre Morris

Solid establishment! It’s newer so I think they’re still working through growing pains but my meal was worth the wait! I had crawfish ettouffe and added fried catfish and baked Mac. The server was attentive and kept our drinks full. All in all a good experience. I would go back and either call in my order ahead of time or just be ready to wait and order drinks.

Of course I saw The Flaming Fish on TikTok, but unfortunately they only show the delicious looking food. They don't mention the SLOW service. It was a Saturday at noon when we arrived (party of 4). We were seated within 10 mins. The waitress said she would grab a kids menu and be right back.Unfortunately that turned into 20 mins. She then returned about 25 mins after that and got our drink order. My daughter asked for a root beer, some how the waitress heard blueberry lemonade.Anyway we ordered two other lemonades, that literally tasted like liquid sugar. So another 10 mins went by we FINALLY ordered our food. We sat for another 40 mins and still had no food. We decided to leave so we let the waitress know that we were going to leave, because we were waiting so long.Her reply was other people are waiting for food too.She said we needed to pay for the liquid sugar it was $18. I want to give no stars unfortunately I have to give one.

My family and I decided to try a new restaurant and I'm so glad I did.The waiter recommend the The Remington and I’m glad I listened to him. Food came out spiking hot which I haven’t had from a restaurant in a long time. I give props when needed I had to ask the speak to the owner just to tell her that. Thanks for the wonderful experience I will be back for more food and next time a drink. The lemonade was very good had to be homemade.
