Belleville Fish & Chicken

We live right down the street from this place and we figured we would give it a go. It’s real hard to miss at night because it’s REALLY lit up!
The guys here are really polite, they make sure you are enjoying your food and have everything you need. We found the food to be surprisingly good, I had the shrimp and catfish and my fiancé got the chicken and catfish, we also split the gyro cheese fries. The shrimp were good sized and cooked really well. The catfish we decided was ok, the breading was seasoned real well, but the catfish didn’t taste like it was catfish, but still good enough to continue to eat and enjoy. The gyro cheese fries were awesome, I highly recommend you try them!
The only con about this place is it’s small, while I think of it as more of a food stand you would pop in and out of in Chicago, the small space means you will be walking out smelling like a deep fryer if you eat inside. I think it would be great if they had a couple of outdoor tables.
You should give this place a shot, I found it to be a great experience and the food was good!

I must say I did like the food. I got the tilapia and wing combo. It comes with fries and can of soda. Everything was breaded and dropped fresh so it was served Hot. The fries were super crispy. They sprinkle a seasoning on everything. The food was real good. I will be back for the food. The drinks are canned sodas which I don’t mind but keep track of how many you drink they will charge extra for drinking more than one. But one comes with all the combos.
The place is small. It has 3 tables and a diner counter. The desserts are all homemade by one of the owners wives. I will say when we were in there there was a guy/​owner that was friendly and/​or obnoxious depending on how you look at him, or a bit of both.
Anyways, I will be back. It was good. The service was good. The food was good.
