Located at 9815 Gravelly Lake Dr SW, Lakewood, WA 98499, this casual fish restaurant has a laid-back vibe that works for quick lunches, late-night cravings, or relaxed dinners with friends and family. The menu leans heavily into comfort food, so it’s easy to see why locals keep coming back for fried fish, chicken wings, hearty combo meals, and quick bites that actually feel satisfying. Everything about the place feels straightforward in the best way possible, from the generous portions to the fast-moving service that keeps things convenient even during busy hours.

One thing that stands out about Jj Fish & Chicken is how flexible the service options are.

Portions are generous enough to share, although many visitors end up keeping everything for themselves once the food arrives fresh and hot at the table.

Catfish nuggets were pretty damn good, they didn’t have that dirty water taste. Highly recommend. Chicken tenders were a bit tough and dry, not really a fan of the tenders. Hush puppies were okay. Cat fish nuggets— 10/10 Tenders— 5/10 Hush puppies— 3.5/10

We saw someone mentioning JJ's on TikTok so we drove down to Lakewood to try them out. He loves catfish and hasn't been able to find good catfish (not to be confused with 'pretentious/high-end' catfish) in the Seattle/Tacoma area. This down-to-earth and humble shop makes GOOD... REALLY GOOD catfish. And if you can see from the photos, a 1/2 lb of catfish nuggets, with fries is generous! The fish was fresh and perfectly cornmeal-coated crunchy, and the fries (which usually end up being the second-fiddle, and barely worth noting) were crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. I had the smaller (1/2 lb) of the chicken gizzards. I've had chicken gizzards many times in the past, and I've had them from a few notable places in the area: Shinya Shokudo (Seattle), Ezell's (Renton), & Friday's Chicken (Kent)... just to name a few. JJ's chicken gizzards didn't have any metallic/iron taste that I associate with them, on average. This is ultimately a win, in my opinion. The breading was super crispy on them, and another huge bonus, was the dusting of Cajun dry seasoning they use on just about every fish/chicken item they sell (which they also sell by the shaker jar full). Locally, I put them up at the top of my list, next to Friday's Korean fried chicken style gizzards. I'd be willing to try them side-by-side to see which is the ultimate winner. And the staff? Again, so humble and polite! They had a little rush when we stopped in, but most were taking their food to go. There's a window bar with stools, and a couple of tables filling the rest of the space, so we decided to eat there. The guy who took our order came out to check on us, even though he didn't need to. This place needs more local support! Get their catfish nuggets and don't turn your nose up at the chicken gizzards! My only regret is we didn't try the desserts or appetizers.

If you’re looking for good catfish or wings THIS IS THE PLACE TO GO!!! We eat here at least 3x a month and it ALWAYS CONSISTENT. The catfish nuggets are what we mainly get and it’s enough to feed at least 3 people. My fiancée and I never finish it in one sitting and that’s with us sharing. We’ve also had their catfish fillets and their fried chicken which is absolutely amazing. We love Ali, they have great customer service, always really nice. I can say we have no complaints
