| - I seriously do not understand all the 5 star reviews for this place, but this is yet another establishment that leads me to the conclusion yelp needs to somehow programmatically weight ratings based on what you have reviewed and and what others have.
It's just not that good.
I get it, it's a fryer joint, but it just leaves much left to be desired.
I ordered a ton of things here when I was very hungry and needed something quick to bring home for the fam:
Fish and Chips
Shrimp and Chips
Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich
Clam Strips
Zucchini
Okra
Not one thing was good... I ended up tossing it all.
The philly was disgusting. I've literally gotten ones out of a vending machine that required a heating in the microwave that rival this in quality and flavor.
Fish and chips was lackluster, but the best of the bunch. It's a small step above Gortons, and I mean small. The fryer oil had to have been deteriorated as it had an everything flavor too it that was undesirable. The fries sucked... soggy, frozen, blah.
The shrimp was over cooked, and by the looks of it just some crap frozen butterflied food warehouse crap.
Clam strips where way over done and just tasted bad... they definitely gave up the flag of dirty oil.
Zucchini and Okra were just slop. Mushy, no seasoning before they were battered. Just a total waste of money.
I wasn't expecting to be blown away with quality, but I at least expected this place to be relatively good at what they do, especially considering the ratings on yelp. It's just a fryer and some really bad ingredients prepared with apparent apathy for quality. Stay away.
