Absolutely love this fresh seafood market. You pick out your food and they cook everything fresh for you. Everything is delicious, cooked to perfection with great service. Definitely try their frozen lemonade. It's the cherry on top of a great meal.

I came here with family and friends who heard that WES had great food. I had no expectations only because I didn't know anything about the restaurant. However, I was excited to see the high reviews on social media. I was very impressed when we arrived. Parking was no issue (we came on a weekday afternoon), and the store was very very clean inside and the staff was super friendly! Everyone was polite and helpful, and they were patient with us as we decided what to order. I ordered a catfish combo. This wasn't exactly on the menu but the owner and staff were very accommodating. The others in my group ordered catfish dinners. The combo came with shrimp and a drink, which was great because I was able to split my meal with hubby. They weighed the catfish to determine the price and gave us an estimated wait time. They have several chairs in the waiting area and we were comfortable as our food was being prepared. There's also plenty of seating outside. I felt the prices are reasonable .. for my combo and a dinner I paid about $30. The food was seasoned to perfection! Very tasty and flavorful. My only issue is that the steam in the clamshell made the breading on the fish and shrimp less crispy. That's no fault of the ones who prepared the food, but a reason I tend to eat fried food in the car opposed to driving it home. I do believe it was crispy initially, but catfish is soft in general and the steam didn't help. I'd definitely return for another catfish meal. You can also order from the hot bar - they had beans, cabbage and other veggies that all looked delicious.

Need fish crab oysters crawfish Purty much any kind of seafood you can prob get it here! Regrettably I'm allergic to much of it but hubby loves it! They also offer ready to eat options notably po boys. Lots of folks coming n going so it must be good! One thing I did notice which I've heard is a good sign is it didn't smell fishy but rather like the ocean

My job just ordered lunch for us, so I got the combo plate of perch and shrimp. Absolutely delish! And I got a side of seafood Mac, so so so good! Big portion, couldn't finish all in one sitting so I have enough for dinner. They can cook fish for u right then and there or u can buy fresh seafood and take it home to do yourself.

The absolute BEST fresh seafood you can get in Charlotte. You choose your seafood and they cook it for you, which is amazing. The staff were so friendly and helped me understand the menu, as it was my first time visiting. We ordered a whiting and perch dinner plate. Everything was so fresh, hot, and seasoned so well. I've been bragging about them since I went by today. I can't wait to go back and check out more of their menu items!

I remember this place from when I was young child. Has changed management I guess. Visited here recent and got swept back into tine...I did not mind the wait and I pick the fish and sides I wanted and just wait and watch the people while my ordered was being fried and organized for take out...My food was great and I ordered extra, so I could enjoy a few days, of it all...Thank you so much:)

The best fresh fried catfish in the United States. The service is amazing. All of the staff was wonderful. Even that lemonade is great. You pick your own seafood. And they cook it fresh upon order. Outdoor seating is available. Most of the orders are takeout. And they have steady business all day. Worth the drive. Worth the wait. And price point friendly. Delicious!

Bernetta, the willful and despicable act that you chose to walk in today March 29, 2024 ( Good Friday) was unsettling to say the least. It was mean and deliberate, and you did this to my husband and me who have patronized your business for over 15 years!!! So since you chose NOT to serve us, and pretended to be coy about it: "May No man eat fruit of thee hereafter forever!" Mark 11:14. May your business dry up from the roots and wither away!
