Chicago's Spot Since Day One

The Real Deal, Fresh Out the Fryer

Golden. Crispy. Real.

Fried chicken pieces golden and crispy

Not Fancy. Just Right.

JJ Fish and Chicken has been feeding the neighborhood the way it deserves to be fed: hot food, real portions, and zero shortcuts. Every piece of fish is hand-battered to order. Every bird hits the fryer fresh. We are not a chain, we are not trying to be fancy, and we are not going anywhere. This is the spot your coworkers argue about, the place you detour for on the way home, the Friday night tradition you do not explain because you do not have to. Come hungry. Leave satisfied. That is the whole promise.

Everything Fried Right

Fried Catfish

Hand-battered catfish filets fried to a shatteringly crisp golden crust, flaky and tender inside. Available by the piece or as a full dinner with sides.

Fried Chicken

Bone-in chicken fried hard and seasoned right. Pick your pieces, pick your sides, and do not sleep on the dark meat.

Fried Shrimp

Jumbo shrimp in a light, crispy coat. A dozen comes and goes faster than you think. Order extra.

Chicken Tenders

Thick, juicy strips with a crunchy crust. Crowd favorite for kids and adults who know what they want.

Combo Meals

Mix and match fish, chicken, and shrimp with your choice of sides. The best way to feed a group without the debate.

Sides

Coleslaw, hush puppies, fries, and more. The sides at JJ hold their own and you should not skip them.
