JW’s Fish and Biscuits

If you’re looking for a great Southern food spot, this is definitely the place to visit. I discovered it during my lunch break and ordered the catfish plate with mac & cheese and candied yams. Everything was phenomenal—fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. I enjoyed it so much that I brought my wife back for dinner later that same day. The owner was professional, welcoming, and made us feel right at home. It’s always a great experience when both the food and the hospitality stand out. I’m looking forward to coming back and trying more items on the menu!

I really enjoyed the food here! I am a Southern man, so my expectations are always slim to none when it comes to these types of establishments. I got the fish plate with two sides with the Mac and cheese and crinkled fries. The catfish was cooked well and the seasoning was good as I bit into each piece of the fish. The biscuit feels more like cornbread which is a great thing, since it was very soft and buttery. I ordered a waffle, and it was pretty solid. I love how you can pour your own hot sauce and tartar sauce; most places can be stingy and charge on that. My only complaint would be the portion sizes. I would definitely come back here!

I was looking for a soulfood place and this place popped up. Great Environment & Customer Service. The fish was hot & fresh macaroni & cheese had great flavor & greens was good. Oh and that bread i promise you was soooo good. I definitely will be going back again

Absolute hidden gem. I’ve been struggling to find good soul food in NOVA.. so glad I found this place tonight. Catfish and grits + turkey wings both excellent. All the sides were great, especially the mac and yams. Real surprise highlight were John’s wings. The signature hot sauce is incredibly tasty, not sure I’ve ever had a sauce quite like it at any other wing spot. Really, really good wings.. could be the best I’ve had in all of Northern Virginia. I just ate some of my leftover wings from 3 hours ago and they still had a crispiness to them. Biscuits are cornbread biscuits. Sweet, tasty. The edges are delicious. You can feel the soul in this food. 10/10 recommend.

Wonderful food absolutely delish , fresh and always hot ! It's always consistent too never disappoints. Big portions. The owner loves what he does and really cares , he's so kind too. Cozy atmosphere needs a little putting together but you can't beat the food especially if your missing some comfort food ! We always come back for more ! The wings, catfish and fried okra are my families favorite.
