Customer Reviews
I ordered large shrimp and when I bit into one of the shrimp it was mushy so I spit it out and discovered it was black on the inside. I immediately called Simply Seafood and informed them of what I encountered they told me that I could bring the shrimp back so they could examine it. I brought it back and they picked through and could see it was black and gave me a refund. This was the second time for me being given soured fried shrimp. I will not be back.
Called last Friday for a simple order…three 3-perch meals with fries. The first red flag was the lady that answered the phone had a nasty attitude like I was interrupting her day but I went ahead and took the chance anyway…..BIG MISTAKE!!! Got home with the fish and it def wasn’t perch it look like some mystery fish I never had before. The two other people who I got food for agreed no way that was even perch. Then the mild sauce tasted like they mixed vinegar and hot sauce together just nasty!!! This mess over $40 but I’m lucky cause we was considering getting crab and salmon that def would’ve been a disaster…..avoid this place at all costs!
If you're from Gary like me, THEY ARE BETTER THAN RAYS! Small building, clean, and you are able to see them looking from over the counter. One of the few places that have grape and strawberry crush soda 😍 catfish nuggets and large shrimp were fried perfectly, and breading was seasoned ....was able to eat without any sauce. The mild and hot sauces are 🔥! They are CLOSED on Sundays, FYI carryout only.
It was okay. The shrimp were plenty big in size, but the color of the fried shrimp was a bit "off" for my liking. I was expecting a darker golden brown color. The seasoning in the breading was very basic, even bland. I would go back again and try other things on the menu, but I would pass on their shrimp in the future. The shrimp were $17 disappointment for me.
Not getting what I paid for is an issue for me. I haven’t been pleased with my catfish purchases lately. Bought filets today that were cut into pieces and didn’t weigh 1 lb. Today’s experience makes the 3rd time I was dissatisfied with my order. I’m done with this place. Three unpleasant experiences is enough.
