Chef Joseph's Seafood & Grill and Kick Sauce

As me and my wife were craving fish, we stubbled across Chef Joseph seafood on Google, located in the outlet mall in Norfolk, Va. When we arrived the owner greeted us and took our order in a nice timely manner. I ordered the flounder sandwich and my wife ordered the two piece fish with fries. It took roughly around like 6 to 7 minutes which, is very understandable being that the fish is made to order. I must say yes, it is a little pricey but you get what you pay for. When I say it was beyond belief on how great the fish was so well seasoned and fresh to the point it fell like it just melted in your mouth. After devouring both our meals, We continue to acknowledge the owner and how good the food was he proceeded to tell us his backstory on how he actually got started, how he was homeless w

Ordered the 6 piece chicken strips. Not even sure I got chicken(if you look at my photos is like blended meat spit into shapes). Totally fake strips, expected real for the price and time spent waiting. Extremely salty and the fries are regular crinkle cut with way to much salt in the seasoning. I do not recommend waisting your money. Response to owner: Maybe remove the sign that say: No refunds, no exchanges, no exceptions. Not exactly a sign that makes an establishment seem open to criticism.

Oh yes ma’am, I’m from New Orleans and this plate is a 10/10. If you’re from the South and longing for a real down South catfish plate- this is it. Fish fried crispy, you don’t even have to tell em. 💯

I ordered the 3-piece Salt & Pepper Catfish with fries for $17.99. The catfish was well seasoned and tasted really good — the flavor was definitely there. However, I was disappointed with the portion. The “3-piece” meal appeared to be one fillet cut into three smaller strips rather than three full pieces, which was not what I expected for the price. It felt misleading and left me wanting more. In addition, the service was not very welcoming, which affected the overall experience. The food has potential because the taste was good, but I hope they improve portion clarity and customer service moving forward.

Shrimp and fry basket was at a good price. Shrimp had a slight sweetness to it and was pretty good. Was also cooked well. Fries even though was seasoned lack flavor and had an odd pasty consistency inside of the crispy outside and was really dry. I thought it was just me until my daughter said “why is it like this?”..lol. Service was nice and friendly at the register but changed at pick up which became unwelcoming. Looked as if another costumer made them upset so we just got the leftover feelings from that situation. Tip to travelers, basket meals do not get to go containers.
