I totally disagree with your analysis of LJS's fish. It is not at all tough - and is among the very best fish I've had. Arthur Treecher's was maybe a bit better but they are gone. Capt. D's is good but too greasy. I highly recommend LJS fish but it is getting hard to find them anywhere.
Mr. Reid; xcpt 4 a location in the Cleveland, OH area, u r (sadly) SPOT-ON RE: Arthur Treacher's Fish & Chips. On the plus side; they definitely had the BEST FUCKIN' FISH I'VE EVER HAD. Un4tun8ly; the Michigan locations of Arthur Treacher's were renamed Seafood Bay b4 eventually goin' out of biz. The last Michigan location closed nearly 30 yrs ago. Dammit; I miss Arthur Treacher's Fish & Chips.
To taste fish at it's best, go to a real restaurant that specialises in fish, with trained chefs. If you are more adventurous, try a Japanese restaurant where they will be happy to discuss the menu and find a dish to suit you. Under normal circumstances it is not possible for a fast food outlet to serve fish at it's finest due to a number of factors such as storage/additives and preparation techniques. Also, the person preparing the dish is unlikely to have the knowledge or experience to get the best from what they have been given to prepare. You will pay more for restaurant standard fish but when you have eaten it, you will know why.
I only eat at Long John Silvers once or twice a year and have been doing so for years. I always get the combination battered fish & shrimp meal with hush puppies. Though the hush puppies are terrible, I’ve always enjoyed the fish & shrimp. Yes they can be oily but have never experienced any dryness or overly chewy. And it’s the batter that makes it a tasty treat.
I went through a LJS phase a long time ago. I disagree with your conclusions, but they could have changed since I was a regular. For example, the chicken planks are dry? What are you smoking? They were tender and moist. "Tough" fish? SMH. 🙄
LJS generally makes decent fried fish, although this sometimes depends on who is cooking that day. If I want seafood and there are no other seafood options available and I'm near an LJS, I'll get it. More often than not, the experience is not great. I'd rather get seafood at a restaurant, prepared by a professional chef using fresh, high quality ingredients.
The fish is great and the sides are delicious,the fish is what makes the food taste great the salmon,shrimp,everything is cooked very well with a nice texture when you bite into your fish.
I disagree almost completely. Their cod fillets are perfect and as I got older I like to eat mine douced in their malt vinegar and hot sauce. Their hushpuppies are one of a kind. I also like them with malt vinegar, its cuts the grease too. I had their grilled salmon once and also thought it was worth its cost value. I especially like it when they offer the Lobster Bites! You'd think NOBODY eats at LJS by this review.
I Ate some Fish today I thought it was very good not tough at all you must be making this stuff up or you are lying misleading people I really loved my fish from Long John Silvers
Okay…. I don’t get it. Why do you keep bouncing back and forth? You could’ve stayed on subjects, like all the different types of fish, the bowls and shrimp. Oh, and the different types of fish tacos… Not only were you bashing them, you never said what “the best thing”, was…! To me, this was a very contradictory report. Also, you didn’t even talk about the hush puppies… Like…what? To me, the fish, hush puppies & the crumbs are the best…! Seen a lot of current and former actors in the old school commercials…. So at least that was a plus…. I’ve seen videos on this channel before, and shouldn’t be called, “Mashed”, it should be called, “Bashed”. That’s all you guy’s do….🧐 For example, MICHIGAN is the home of the best CONEY DOGS/CHILI DOGS…. Period….💯 #LJS❤️
I: really would love to see. A Mini Mall clothes shopping 🛒 here, in Gloucester va location 🙏💅🏾🤗 and. Bicycle 🚲 and more walking sidewalk areas for everyone one🚲🤗💅🏾🙏🛒👍🏾
We went to one & nobody opened it,so we went to the one across town & they had no chicken 😮 blasted them on Twitter & they did nothing,no coupons, sad Co!!😊
This video was exceedingly monotonous, and downright distasteful. I am not surprised at the lack of positive feedback on your channel's videos at all. The title is also misleading as we do not have any proof that you have actually tried any of the dishes, very disappointed in the commitment to your work..
LJS is the worst seafood ever. Haven't eaten there in 2 years. Last time I ate there. I got really sick. I will never eat there again. No wonder some LJS restaurants. Have been going out of business. The food is really bad. I prefer Captain D's.
The “hit piece” aspect of this is off-putting. LJS doesn’t pretend to be a nice seafood restaurant, just as McDonald’s doesn’t pretend to be a steak restaurant. Yes, the food is somewhat polarizing, but even in decline, they’ve outlasted their former competitors.
Love their fish and chicken combo, it's amazing and don't care what people think.
fr
Yep, not the healthiest but it's always really good.
Long John Silver's fish is good, along with their hushpuppies.
No way you even tried to the food. The chicken planks are amazing and the fish is light and flakey. It's not healthy but it's delicious.
Even the motz sticks were good

Best fish you've had? Wow. That's hilarious

taste good to me@@sneer0101
Glad to see I'm not the only one who likes long john silver better than captain D.

Long John silver's is my favorite fast food place.

shut up baxter
It very much depends on which LJS location you goto. Some are really good, others probably should be shut down.
ILove long John's silver s restaurant food ❤ best tasting
I really wish there was a Long John Silver's restaurant where I live because most of their menu choices look delicious.

I’m from London 🇬🇧 and when ever I was visiting the us 🇺🇸 I always went to long John silvers as I loved it and so different to what we have here
I always liked their hush puppies. Plus I liked the batter on the fish.
It's called FAST FOOD for a reason 🎉🎉🎉
I went through a LJS phase a long time ago. I disagree with your conclusions, but they could have changed since I was a regular. For example, the chicken planks are dry? What are you smoking? They were tender and moist. "Tough" fish? SMH. 🙄
I love LONG JOHN SILVERS
That looks boss. SALIVATING!😋
My own damn fault for looking at this at 5:15pm GMT🤣

Key phrase: high quality ingredients.
The fish is great and the sides are delicious,the fish is what makes the food taste great the salmon,shrimp,everything is cooked very well with a nice texture when you bite into your fish.
I absolutely love dry over cooked chicken ever since bad food poisoning from eating it under cooked when I was younger
Hush puppies hands down. Little bit if ketchup
And malt vinegar yummy.
This place was my childhood, it’s upsetting they took the place away from where I used to always go get some Long John Silver’s at.
This review is whack. LJS is great and probably the best fast food value since all the trash chains have gone crazy with their prices.

I don’t know what this lady is talking about, Long John Silvers food is very good. 🤷♂️
Shouldve jist said you don't like anything. Long johns is delicious
Back in the '80s they had fried scallops. Does anybody remember that? That's what my mom always ordered.
I love LJS THE HUSH PUPPIES R AWESOME
French Fries win my vote.
Cole Slaw gets my vote
The tacos are fantastic. Hopefully others give them a try, they are better than the fare at most "true" Mexican spots.
I Ate some Fish today I thought it was very good not tough at all you must be making this stuff up or you are lying misleading people I really loved my fish from Long John Silvers
Captain D’s is 100 times better.
Arthur Treachers was the best..
I been to Captain Ds and they are good but I like long john silvers better
Question, did you ever put LJS's Fish in the refrigerator overnight? Open your fridge and you will smell how old that fish is.
Love long John’s cheap and delicious
This is a poor review. LJS fish is certainly not tough at all! Very tasty food although need to limit the quantity
They need to put calimari on the menu
I don't know anybody who even eats Calimari, I haven't even heard that word in 2 or 3 years.
Actually the batter was pretty good. Had a nice hint of pepper
I definitely much rather stick with baked, steamed, or broiled. Another words, slow cooked.
DO IVAR'S NEXT!🤤
Will: they building one in. Gloucester va location
I feel like LJS's fish is getting a bad reputation.
LOL. Gdamn. Just close down already.

I: really would love to see. A Mini Mall clothes shopping 🛒 here, in Gloucester va location 🙏💅🏾🤗 and. Bicycle 🚲 and more walking sidewalk areas for everyone one🚲🤗💅🏾🙏🛒👍🏾
Theyve had a consistent taste over the years they just keep goin up in $. Shits bangin otherwise
We went to one & nobody opened it,so we went to the one across town & they had no chicken 😮 blasted them on Twitter & they did nothing,no coupons, sad Co!!😊
1:04 Who’s that woman?
Closest LJS is 75 miles away and Cap D’s sucks. Hard pass. Don’t EVEN get me started on lack of White Castles in this state. No Krystal either
Review is off...LJS is not this bad. Why are her reviews mostly negative?
Ketchup .... on a burger... no
try today very small pieces (2) bland never again
why say in the title "the best" and just shit on them

LJS food is nasty to me
I think you're being paid by the competition to trash long John silver's.
The one near me is terrible even the cole slaw.
