Jack's Seafood & Soul Food Restaurant - Authentic Southern and Soul Food in Raleigh, NC

Food is great! Had the fried chicken wings, rice/gravy, and green beans. Rice was a little under cooked, but everything else was really good and hopefully they are able to get a bigger space. Everything is so small from parking lot to inside.

I ordered the catfish and shrimp combo with Mac and cheese and cole slaw. I also got a slice of the M and M cake. The catfish was cooked perfectly and the shrimp were delicious. The breading for the shrimp was seasoned. I wish I knew what breaker they used because it was perfect on the shrimp. I liked that the catfish breeder was different than the shrimp and it didn't take away from the flavor of the catfish. The breading was a good ratio not to much breading used. The baked Mac and cheese was so good and I got some edge pieces that were so yummy. I got so much food, I was not able to eat all for lunch. So I guess I have dinner for tonight. All the staff are friendly, welcoming, and so helpful. If you like seafood you need to stop at this spot. No tables only counter.

The food is great. The smothered chicken is incredible. This is obviously a very popular place. I hope they can find a larger space. The parking situation is stressful, although I admire they try to have ppl out there to try to direct parking tho. I thought front of house staff was pleasant. The food took a while to come out because they're so popular. I hope they get to scale up their business. But I will definitely be back!

The tilapia was good. I enjoyed with and without hot sauce & tartar sauce. The batter had a nice flavor. I didn't know the dinner came with hushpuppies so I ordered a side. The hushpuppies had fried okra mixed in it and some didn't taste fresh. I enjoyed the coleslaw but the potato salad was fair. I was surprised about the portion size for the sides. But, It was a good first experience.

DELICIOUS and fresh food. Get the smothered pork chops, it's the best Ive ever had. My bf got the fried tilapia, also delicious.

My first time here, definitely not my last. The customer service was great. The ladies were very nice and helpful. The fish was fried to perfection. It was sooo good and crispy. The smothered chicken was good. Only downside was gravy didn’t have any seasoning it was kind of bland.

I just stumbled upon a fantastic black-owned gem—Jack’s Seafood and Soul Food. I decided to try the catfish, fried chicken, and macaroni and cheese, and I also grabbed a couple slices of honey bun cake. Let me just say, you can probably guess how good it was, but I promise you won’t be disappointed! The service was excellent, and the food? Even better. If you’re in the area, definitely stop by and treat yourself to a taste of what they’re serving!

This place is amazing reminds me of my great grandmothers country cooking. Everything here is good breakfast lunch and dinner cabbage is perfect and so is the Mac n cheese which is my favorite and usually I don’t go for Mac n cheese. The people who work here know my wife and I as soon as we order over the phone. Or if we walk in they already know what we are getting!!!
