Best shrimp on the Northside.

This was awful! Don’t order the baked salmon. They claim it’s prepared with a Cajun rub- it was flavorless. Not to mention the scoop of artificial mashed potatoes and frozen vegetable medley. Disgusting! I could have bought a Swanson TV dinner and I would have eaten better than what this establishment brought me. Never again. And what’s the big deal with cole slaw? It looked like it came from Jewel. Extremely disappointing.

Absolutely the best place for shrimp., chicken and seafood. I live 30 miles away, but always stop in whenever I'm in the area.

There is always a great variety of fresh fish as well as chicken. The sides of macaroni salad and cole slaw are delicious. Reasonably priced and friendly staff makes this small business well worth the visit. 

Business response:

Thank you for the kind words Nancy!

The catfish that I ordered and received was a bit suspect so I didn’t finish that, but the whiting (or was it cod?) was delicious. Prices are a bit high for the portions they give but (most of) the fish seems fresh. I guess sides/packets of tartar sauce are expensive because none came with my order. They have late hours and the staff that was there seemed friendly. That was my first visit and would eat from there again.

Really great seafood. You can take it home cook it or have them do it right there. Either way it's good. 

Business response:

Glad to hear that you enjoyed Marshall!
