Super JJ Fish & Chicken

The only bright spot to this place is that the manager seemed decently nice. Food gets a 0 out of five stars as it’s 100% overpriced breading… and if you order «mozzarella sticks» you are ordering hollow breading cylinders without cheese… just like everything else over at this place. Awful absolutely awful that is about as pg rated as I can say it definitely not coming back.

I came in here at lunch time a couple weeks ago and ordered two orders of fish. One was perch and I don’t remember the other.
They were very busy and the service was good, unfortunately, the fish was not! It smelled and tasted «fishy», which usually means it’s not fresh in my experience. The breading didn’t stay on as we were eating the pieces. It just fell off in large pieces.
I have had their wings with lemon pepper and mild sauce and they are pretty good. I just think if you order fish you have to stick to the catfish or better yet, just order chicken. That’s unfortunate since the word fish is actually in the name of the business!

Got sick after i ate here. Food was okay but they definitely have sanitary issues. Won’t be back.

Every single time I come here. I get great service and great food !!! The BEST fried catfish in town

Ordered a week ago for the first time. They weren’t delivering so I said ok, I’d come pick it up. No problem. The employees were very nice. The food was probably a 4 out of 5. The only problem was they forgot my fried mushrooms and also forgot to iclude the hot sauce I ordered. So I guess they should probably pay more attention to make sure they get the orders correct. Other than that, it was good. I will try them again soon.

I really enjoy the food. It is very flavorful and not you greasy. The archive it’s kinda slow and pricing is kinda high. Not enough for me to go somewhere else though.

HORRIBLE! HORRIBLE! HORRIBLE! This place has changed a lot since I last went! The chicken has zero flavor whatsoever and I even asked for mild sauce and lemon pepper in which they didn’t give me any on the side for sauce or lemon pepper on the chicken. Ew, no flavor on the chicken made it gross and inedible.
The french fries were cold as hell as well. I don’t think this place is owned by the same people, as the chicken, and the chicken tenders were a lot better when I last went. Even my own dad and mother said it changed since they had it. It’s not just me who is having this problem either.

Horrible. Horrible. Horrible! Had the 4 wing lunch special. Chicken was obviously frozen. Breading was thick and flavorless. I can get the same fries and slaw at the grocery store

Hands down the best place for fried fish, shrimp and chicken. Great service and clean environment. Owner was down to earth and was very helpful. Going back for sure.

By far one of the best places to grab lunch in a town that is inundated with choices every which way you look. You cannot go wrong with any of the gut busting options on their low budget lunch menu.

When in Rome eat like the Romans. When in Bloomington, IL eat like they do. This is a very no frills soul food kind of place. Clean, fast, and very friendly service. If you drive a truck, it is a very short walk from the pilot.
The owner recommend the lemon pepper and the «secret» recipe sauce. He knows what he is talking about. Get it!
Lots of food for the low price. Be ready to eat!
Just remember, it is fish and you may find a stray bone or two.

Service and all that is just fine. Fish, chicken, gizzards… Ohhh the glorious gizzards.
All of it is great. It’s not 5 stars for the fact that a couple times we got some foul tasting coleslaw. But for going there a dozen plus times it is usually pretty damn good.
Some might say expensive, but realistically they give you mounds of food, so it’s not that bD for the price.

Very friendly staff. VERY good jumbo shrimp and fish sandwich. Pretty small on the inside and not many tables to sit. But we went at an off time, so we got a table. It’s an out of the way place and easily overlooked. But if you want really good shrimp or fish, this is the place to be. I haven’t tried the chicken just because I don’t eat chicken or beef. But I’m sure it’s good also.

Want a Chicago style fish and chicken shack? Look no further, JJ Fish and Chicken is sure to have it. I usually order takeout if I’m not too lazy to go and get it but they do delivery if you order on
. If you don’t like lemon pepper on everything make sure you let them know because if you don’t you’re gonna get it. I have no complaints and this place simply is what it is. I love fried catfish.

Extremely rude and unprofessional behavior by Derek (identified himself as manager) and the old cashier woman. Food was not ready for pick up at promised time. Tried to reach owner to complain but he did not pick up his phone either.
I ordered a tray of 30 chicken pieces for pick up over the phone.
When I arrived the food was not ready at the promised time. They took the payment right away, and acted if the food is just about ready. Made me wait half an hour. I think they just started cooking once I got there and paid, rather when I called and ordered.
When I complained about the delay and asked for a refund since I was getting late, they refused to cancel and refund my money, and lied and made excuses saying that the «chicken pieces are larger so its taking longer», or they «just started their shift and were not aware of this pending order.»
When I asked for the ordered to be cancelled and my money refunded, Derek said that «now I’m gonna make you wait».
Won’t be dealing with this business again.

Ordered the #1 combo meal, which is 3 fried fish and 4 wings. Asked for one of each fish offered, not a problem. That was my bad. Only the catfish tasted right. Other 2 were bland. The wings were on the dry side and underseasoned. When I ask for spicy I want SPICY! Fries just so/​so and not enough slaw. Very friendly service and clean place. Maybe next time (if there’s a next) I’ll stick w/​catfish or dare try the shrimp.

This place is a small little gem for fried seafood in Champaign.
The fried catfish was absolutely delicious. It’s just $ 1 more to go from ½ lb to a full pound. so why not!?! The portions were really well sized and the service was fast and friendly. I am definitely coming here again

JJs is no frills Fried Fish and Chicken — and they do it well.
I tried the Perch and Jumbo Shrimp and both were good quality and tasted good.
Fried food is something I don’t do too often, but we all get the urge sometimes.

Caution seating is limited so not good for large groups. I have tried the chicken wings with lemon pepper and hot sauce, and the ocean perch both were very good. Batter on fish is excellent. worth the drive over to the west side.

This was my first visit and JJ’s made it into my regular lunch rotation. I ordered the 4 wings and gizzards combo. Wow! They don’t separate the drumettes from the wing tips so you really get 8 wings and they were perfectly deep fried and tasted fantastic. The gizzards were cooked perfect. In fact they were the best most tender gizzards I’ve had in 15 years. Even the fries were good.
I will go back and try the shrimp and catfish. Heck, I might even order delivery tonight. Yea! They deliver too!
