Been wanting to check this place out 'cuz I miss the fry-up places in Detroit and Chicago. Big JJ is pretty dang good.
I got the catfish fillet sammie. Tasty fish, a tad on the thin side though, covered in a cornmeal batter. Everything was right about it. I'd for sure come back when cravings for fried chick'n or fish overwhelm me.
They have a decent list of sides, and since I somehow didn't notice fries came included in sandwich price; ordered the fried okra. Yum! Can't go wrong there. Had enough leftover fries n' okra to share pre-dinner "apps" with some housemates.
Prices here are super reasonable. It seems mostly a take-out business, as there is very little seating. It's a tad shabby 'round the edges, as a good you-buy-we-fry shop should be. Counter guy super nice and friendly.
