Quick info
About Fish & Wing
Fish & Wing is a seafood restaurant on 10th Ave N in Bessemer, built around a walk-up counter with about five chairs and no tables, so most customers order standing and carry their plates out. The menu runs through whole and filet whiting, whole catfish, and croaker, alongside a rib, fish, and wings plate and a shrimp and whole wing chicken combination. Coleslaw is served as a side, and seasoning salt is set out on the counter for customers to add to their food after ordering. Orders are placed walk-in style directly with the owner at the counter. The restaurant opens Tuesday through Saturday and stays closed on Mondays and Sundays.

Customer Review Summary
The recurring complaint centers on the owner, described by multiple reviewers as blunt, nonchalant, or having a poor attitude, including one who says a complaint about an undercooked double cheeseburger was met with indifference. Others report food issues tied to that same visit experience: chicken fried in burnt grease with no seasoning, and fries hard outside but mushy inside. One reviewer also flagged menu prices not matching what was charged. Despite this, several describe the space as packed with locals ordering standing-room only, with one saying she now picks up food without her partner.

“Service was disappointing both over the phone and in person. The food was just okay, and it seemed to reflect the poor level of service. Customer service makes a big difference in the overall lunch experience, and unfortunately, this visit fell short. I won't be returning because I prefer to support places that serve good food with a positive attitude.”

“Wow! The fish was the bomb, coleslaw so good. Enough food for my money,but it tastes so good. More than enough for the price.”

“I sent my friend there to get me some food and the chicken was fried in burnt grease and the fries was hard on the outside and mushy on the inside.”
- Andrea Glass
“I had a shrimp and whole wing chicken plate. The food was cooked fresh but did not have any seasoning. They do provide condiments on the counter including seasoning salt to add to your food after you get it. The portion size was good to me. …”
- Willie Collins
“The fish sandwich from Fish and Wing was absolutely delicious! The fish was fried perfectly—crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It was seasoned just right and paired well with the soft, fresh bread. The portion size was generous and very filling. Everything tasted fresh, hot, and made to order. If you’re looking for a great, satisfying meal, definitely the place to go! ⭐⭐⭐⭐”
