Best captain jays PERSONALLY. Our food is ALWAYS Good & Seems FRESH! The wait can be long (seriously lol) so I ALWAYS do call ins. ******THEY DO NOT COOK YOUR FOOD TILL YOU ARRIVE!!!****** Which I understand ppl do call ins and don’t pick up. Honestly the freshness Is worth the wait. Never had a problem with customer service, although I do feel bad for them sometimes folks get mad at the wait even tho they’re doing the best they can.
