I've eaten at Long John Silver's a few times over the years. I am amazed that this place stays in business! On my most recent visit to try a fish taco, I was the only person in the place! When I walked in, the crew was sitting in the restaurant drinking soda and chatting. When they saw me, they scurried back to their respective battle stations.
I ordered two fish tacos and it took a bit for them to make them. The fish tacos were okay for a buck each, but nothing to write home about. Then why the hell am I writing, you ask? To impress upon you to not visit Long John Silvers unless they a) build a new corporate image b) offer decent food for a change! c) clean up their restaurants.
While I was waiting for what seemed to be an enormous order, I gazed about the dingy establishment. What a dump. It is clear that this company is hanging on by a thread. Why don't they just throw in the towel already? ...and I don't mean in the deep fryer.
I realize Long John Silver's has opened a few new locations, however, if you're attempting to revitalize your company, you must revitalize all your locations, not just one or two. This particular location on Brookpark Rd is the worst...bad enough for me to write an e-mail to their corporate office.
