Fish was hard. Cooked to long in dirty grease. Cole slaw was bitter. Ate in Merrillville on our way home to Anderson. They closed ours in Anderson so we thought we would get a great meal. Terrible should have went to captain D's. They should close this one Dd

My food was fresh and hot. I tried their new cheese curds. They were a little pricey but good.
