    Absolutely the best Basa Fish sandwich! I ordered the meal that comes with fries and a drink. My husband had the chicken wings meal, fried crispy with sauce on the side. Everything was perfect! It's all cooked to order so everything was fresh and delicious! I'd give a 10/10 for this restaurant, hands down!!!+

    So my 4 stars are because they didn't give me my 10 peice wings only 9 and they forgot my husband's water. The food is mid. We have forsure had better food than this. The Fletcher location is more like a 2 star.

    Tasty food with decent portion sizes. Relatively well priced. This plate pictured does not have additional side nor beverage. This item from the menu pictured is a grilled shrimp bowl all the way. Shrimp is supple and rice is well cooked and seasoned the bite of the grilled vegetables (onions and peppers) is nice compliment to dish. Would eat again.

    Went through drive-through ordered a number for original all the way with a 10 piece shrimp on the side and a cheesecake did not receive the cheesecake when called manager was rude and disrespectful and said if I didn’t have a receipt she didn’t care I wasn’t gonna get the pie I said fine. I was challenge my credit card for the whole total of the order for not receiving what I paid for. She said well that’s your prerogative I don’t care, what service disrespectful, rude employees

    8/19/2022 10:35pm the young lady at the window 🤦🏾‍♀️ So unprofessional I ask for a extra sauce. She replied it’s in the bag! I repeated I’ll pay for a extra sauce she then said $1.08 I gave her 3 quarters 2 dimes 1 nickel and 8 pennies. She dropped the change then laughed as she asked me to get it. I told her no she stated well you ain’t getting yo sauce 🤦🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️ A her coworker told her just give the lady her sauce. I love Salem but I do not recommend 50th st salem ❗️❗️❗️❗️Fish was mushy I spent $28.76 I Will be calling

    There was a problem in my order. I spoke to the manager, Tina. She was very friendly and helpful. Good service and clean restaurant. Just need to refill handsanitizer dispensers. I recommend this location.

    The managers at this store are inept and rude. I told them several times that I ordered through their website and they kept telling me SEVERAL TIMES to talk to door dash. I had nothing to do with door dash. I was asking them to cancel my order because I chose delivery and the site pushed it through as pick up. They called me rude because I told them their website is trash, which it is. Don't waste your time with this place. The managers talk over you, ignore you and treat you like you're stupid for asking for help.

    I drove all the way here from Wimauma because I love their garlic and herb butter grilled shrimp. I didn’t notice it on the menu so I asked her if they still offered it. She made me repeat myself twice because she couldn’t hear me, no big deal. And then she tells me “I ain’t gonna know if they got garlic and herb on the shrimp because I ain’t the cook”She knows it’s cooked and some butter and some herbs, but she don’t know which ones. Just seem like a very rude answer, I was simply asking if I they still offered it. I pulled off from the drive-thru And went somewhere else LOL

    i ordered food from here and me and my friend ordered combos. they forgot her fries so we had to drive back then after going home we realized they gave me the wrong meat in my philly. so we had to drive all the way back. after they gave us my new meal the lady made a slick comment “you should check it” i didnt find that funny at all. we shouldn’t have to check it for the third time to see if its correct.

    Service was fast and friendly, food came out quick and hot. I tried the fried fish & shrimp combo, but it was soggy and no crunch to it. The salad greens were also on their last day. Good service but below avg fried food.

    The food and staff here are exceptional. I’ve been going for years to this location. They are always quick and diligent with every order i’ve placed. Love their hours as well.

    The only problem I had was waiting too long in drive thru. Other than that the food is worth the wait

  • 4/5 Sharon S. 1 year ago on Google
    I said I wasn't going to try it again but my family wanted the fish & shrimp. The 50th Street location didnt let us down. Food was great & the line was moving fast. Nice job!!

    I recently visited Salem's restaurant, and I must say that my experience was highly disappointing. Not only did they consistently get our orders wrong, but we also received incomplete meals with items missing. The constant errors in our orders left us frustrated and dissatisfied. It seemed like the staff was either not paying attention or rushed to fulfill orders. Not only did this ruin our dining experience, but it also wasted our time and money.

  • 1/5 Narranja W. 9 months ago on Google
    Placed an order online. Order wouldn't go through due to connectivity issues between the app and restaurant. Logged back in the app and started a new order that did go through (received confirmation and receipt via email). My husband picks up the food and gets back with multiple bags. I ask him why so many bags and he said they both had my name on it. Turns out the first order did go through and they charged my card twice. Tried calling the store only to keep reaching the voicemail. Called the corporate office this morning for a resolution and was asked to email screenshots of both my bank statement and the receipt I received. I just checked my account again after being told someone would call me only to find they've pushed both charges thru ; even though I was told the error was in their end and that "glitches happen sometime". Spend your money elsewhere...they are HIGHLY unethical ‼️‼️

    Today was just a bad day for them. Kitchen was incredibly overwhelmed. Drive thru and app pickup were crazy. However, having worked in a DD, showing patience and understanding paid off in appreciation. My order was timely enough and delicious. Their twofer specials and my fave, the gizzard special, keep me coming back.

  • 3/5 Will D. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was amazing as always. This was an ideal situation as I was picking my brother up from the nearby bus station. While I awaited his arrival I thought I'd grab my fiance her beloved gizzard meal;so I went through the drive through not paying much attention because I was on a personal call. The drive-thru was flooded with traffic. I collected her order and headed to pickup my brother. Once he was in the car he decided he wanted to experience the food he smelled and I was raving about. He insisted we go in. We went in to order and to our dismay the atmosphere was dismal at best. I tried to sway the energy to no avail as the cashier just seemed to not want to be there. I asked if she was a manager she said no and pointed to a lady standing nearby. As I inquired as to why this location seemed so solemn she gave a forced smile and stated they had just been slammed with customers. I expressed that smiling was a simple thing that could enhance customer service and would definitely be appreciated although I understood the affects of the rush. All in all I left here thinking I would not like to visit this location any time soon. It is my perspective in high volume times this is the opportunity to actually acquire new customers. This is the best time to smile and spread cheer. If anyone does care about this the moral I would say is in adverse times would be the best time to shine

  • 4/5 Michael S. 1 year ago on Google
    I like my food cooked fresh, and that's what this place does. I'm giving it four stars because sometimes they will give you warm food or not so fresh.

  • 3/5 Megan 1 year ago on Google
    Food was good for the most part. Lady on the drive thru speaker sounded like she was less than thrilled to be there. Constantly cutting me off while I was trying to place my order.

  • 1/5 Charlie B. 1 year ago on Google
    Today at 10:45AM(restaurant was empty) I waited at the speaker for 13 exact minutes without anyone taking the order, so I pulled up to the window and waited another 2-3 minutes until an employee comes and rudely tells me she “didn’t know I was there” and that I’ll have to drive back around to the speaker to order. Nobody was behind me. Wasted half of my lunch break. This has happened at this location multiple times. Rude slow employees, they can keep their wings.

  • 3/5 Tammy P. 1 year ago on Google
    for the most part food is fresh..The basa fish i got the other day was fried to perfection but the texture.of the fish was jelly like. I don't know if it was fried frozen or what. I've had plenty of basa before but that was strange. I didn't finish it but for the most part i like this location over all other locations in the Tampa Bay area aside from Brandon.

  • 5/5 Tmara K. 1 year ago on Google
    Listen you can't beat this place! Open late, our food was fresh and they even had security there. I was visiting from out if town and I felt safe and my food was made to order.

  • 3/5 Lakisha M. 1 year ago on Google
    The workers are very nice (company is better than the food). This isn’t Taco Bell so why am I running for the border. Think it’s a fluke? Nope. There are multiple people complaining about the same thing from this particular one including me. I’m sorry it is a no from me.

  • 5/5 Merion B. 1 year ago on Google
    Fish and okra fried just right. And you have a choice to eat in or take out. We ate in . The staff was super friendly. It was very clean inside and as 1st time visitors to Florida I really appreciated the long line of cars waiting patiently at the take out window.
