Make My Fish

Ever since my favorite fish restaurant closed, I’ve been searching for a replacement. I’ve heard good reviews about Make My Fish and decided to give it a try. When I arrived to the restaurant it was a bit crowded which I took as a good sign. The staff member taking the orders did so quickly, I waited less than 5 minutes to place my order. The staff member who took my order was very polite and professional. It took me less than 10 minutes to receive my order. I was pleased with the fast service. While waiting on my food I noticed a staff member stepped outside. He then came in and used hand sanitizer than put on gloves and got right back to work. Make sure you have cash on you because the restaurant only accepts cash. There is an ATM in the restaurant as well in case you don’t have cash on you. I ordered the whiting fish dinner with baked macaroni and cheese, collard greens, and candied yams. I appreciated getting actual whiting fish as some places say they have whiting but gives tilapia instead. There were about 7 pieces of fish. The fish was filet in which I love because I don’t have the time or energy to pick through bones. The fish was seasoned with too much black pepper, I’m not a black pepper fan as I think it’s too spicy for me. My mom loves her food with lots of black pepper and she even said it was too much black pepper for her. The yams were bland, too hard and crunchy, they weren’t cooked long enough. The macaroni and cheese had a weird taste to it was very bland. The collard greens the best side out of the three. It was cooked well and had a lot of flavor to them. Out of 5 stars, I would give: the food a 2½, customer service a 5, wait time a 5, overall rating would be a 2 because the wait time and service was pleasant. I was hoping this would become one of my favorite spots after reading all the positive reviews. However, I wouldn’t return to the restaurant but give it a try you make like it.
