We heard the chili was good, but we were pleasantly surprised by the gumbo and fried okra. Of course, the oysters Rockefeller were great also. Everything came out hot, fresh, and very quickly. So hot and fresh that I burned my mouth more than once on the okra 🙃 Oh and the chili was very good with big chunks of meat. It's very filling and absolutely worth $12. We will definitely go back to try the other varieties of oysters, shrimp, and more gumbo!

Nice small spot, The menu was good and broad. Unfortunately, they only had one waiter handling about 7 tables which is unfortunate for her. She did her best to provide us good service and we appreciate her. The food was pretty good and had good flavors! We had Cajun Oysters, Ceviche and crab cakes. Premium price for these dishes.

The oysters, catfish and fries 🍟 are ALL that!! Try the fried onions (in pic) and the catfish pieces are LARGE. You gotta try the raw and cooked
oysters ... OMG 😱!!

My 15 year old son and I have been coming here for a couple of years and it is our favorite place to eat and hang out together. The fried mushrooms are our favorite thing and it's just always a great experience altogether.

We had a super cute outdoor table with little lights hanging and a nice breeze. We had oysters on the half shell and there where amazing. We definitely intend to go back and try the other menu items. Service is excellent!

Love coming here every once in a while and treating myself to a feast. The baked oysters are super good and so are the catfish and shrimp! The staff is super nice and it’s a great place to just hangout and eat.

Some of the best, closest to fresh out of the water Oysters that I have ever consumed. The crawfish the Ceviche is wonderful as well. Everything on the menu is worth coming back for. I will be back next week for more Oysters.

Please was good clean restroom and service was nice the only problem I tasted was the catfish. It was breaded good but didn't taste like catfish it tasted like Swani
I really think they think it is CATFISH but no catfish taste. I will be back I'll just try the Cod next time. A very comfortable place to eat.
Catrina Plummer
Definitely one of my favorite places for oysters and has been for a long time, the quality and consistency of the quality is fantastic! Hi, Jim!

Saw that we were having a cool front and my first thought was, “I need gumbo from JJs!” Well got that and a little more! Amazing as always been coming here for years and it’s always a good time!
Haley Parrish
Great place to eat! It's a bit small but they do have outdoor seating. 2lbs of crawfish and they came out steaming hot. It's for sure a must try place
Chris Walton
Today was my first time. I have been dying for good seafood and been disappointed with other places around town until my friend recommended I try this place. It is a Fort Worth staple and I know that already but I didn't really believe the hype. They changed my mind today! everything that I had was some of the best that I have in a long time. Snow crab sweet and tender, crawfish huge and cooked perfectly. Amy was our server and took care of our rabble of kids like a pro. Great service, great food. I am a creature of habit and have found home for seafood!!! Thanks so much!!
Andrew Davis
Worth the price, seafood was fresh and came out faster than I could take a sip of my beer! Will be back for another date night!
Rose Marie Ferreri-Lindegren
Holy moly! This place was amazing! Our first time there, very busy, but our server Amy was great! We tried so many things from fried pickles, to oysters, to lobster bisque even crab cakes and crab legs!!! We will be back! Looking forward to trying other items on the menu!! The oysters were amazing!!! Thank you!!

My favorite place for over 30 years. Loved the old place the best though it was very small. It had a great ambience. Best hush puppies ever. Always get the whole catfish dinner.
Robert Moore
I loved it! It is my new favorite place to eat sea food! I highly recommend eating here! �
Justin Quigley
Great food and excellent service! Wish I would have known about this place years ago.
Jessica Vickrey Ramsey
Our friends took us here this past Sunday for our first time and we are in love! We chose to sit on the patio not knowing it was about to pour down. The staff were so nice and helped move stuff in the rain and replace wet items. Our waitress was amazing to say the least! She helped my son crack some of his crab legs, he's new at it! We will definitely be back!!
Mateo Vincente Negrovalores
This bar is all about the food. Cheap, mostly domestic/Mexican beer. The food is delicious. All of it.
Rhonda Jennings
This is my favorite place to eat. When I visit my son I cannot go home without eating here. The food is awesome.
Dougy Ramsey

I had the Blackened Tilapia. It was great. Service was great. Food was great. Reasonably priced. Everything about this place is Fort Worth's Finest.

Greasy and sub-par.

This is THE place in Ft. Worth for oysters!. We've been dining here for a long time. There are plenty of tasty items on the menu, but first and foremost, this is an oyster bar.<br/><br/>Raw, Rockafella, Laredo or fried. They are all good. And unlike any other place I know that serves oysters, size determines how many you get. If they are large, stated amount is what you will get. Medium to small, you will get more.<br/><br/>This evening, we started with the raw dozen. We got 14. We shared a fried oyster and catfish with grilled shrimp combo. Menu states five, we got eight.<br/><br/>No "r" in the month, no problem because they have them brought in from waters where it is safe to harvest them.<br/><br/>Bottom line, try whatever you want, but don't forget the oysters! And if they don't get something right, let them know. They do care about making sure you are satisfied.

The raw oysters were filled with broken bits of shell, more than I've ever seen in 30 years of eating them. Who's shucking them? Are they using a hammer?<br/><br/><br/>-----12 Aug, 2013-----<br/><br/>Pretty good oyster po boy. Not bad, not great. Highlight of the visit was seeing the Calder-like tornado sculpted art across the street behind the post office. It's beautiful. It's amazing how something so powerful can create something so graceful. The storm mural behind it is icing on such a unique work.

Appetizer was an order Oysters Laredo: baked with salsa, pico de gallo and Parmesan. Great flavors and perfectly done. These are delicious.<br/>My entree was the Combo Platter with fried scallops, Crawfish Sausage, with Veggies and Rice: batter-fried scallops were a mistake (scallops are watery in nature) but that sausage was delicious. Veggies were crisp and flavorful and the rice was nicely done.<br/>My dinner companion had the baked red snapper (perfect), veggies and fries (limp but tasty).<br/>Overall it was good food. I liked it.

The address is NOT 612 N University !!! It is at 612 University !!!

Yuck. Crawfish wasn't purged and had zero flavor. The place could use a good scrubbing as well. Very disappointing, won't be going back.

Fried seafood goodness. Well, I have to admit... I'm not a well-seasoned seafood patron. C'mon, I grew up in the metroplex. BUT, I did take a trip up the west coast last year and had fantastic seafood in San Francisco and Seattle. I think that qualifies me to say...<br/><br/>I like J&J Oyster Bar. I've had their fried shrimp and fried oysters, their yummy greasy fries, I seem to recall some great coleslaw. Oh, and a catfish po boy that was impressive. I would love to go back and try some of their non-fried fare. I couldn't get into the lobster bisque though - had a really strange flavor that maybe is authentic or others like? The waitress politely exchanged it for some good ol' clam chowder.<br/><br/>Be aware, When I leave here my clothes usually smell like grese. They might need some better ventilation.

Not as Good as the Old Location. I had not bee the J&J since they moved many years ago, so I decided to visit the new location. I was not impressed with the food or service, but will go and try again next visit to Ft Worth as I might have caught them on an off day. Food was OK but not great.

Visiting from Houston... Had dinner here with family... Nice n quaint patio... Great for beautiful evenings out... Food was great... Had the salmon n would definitely recommend it!

Just don't order the hush puppies

GREAT service.. We showed up at 9:52 PM on a Thursday night, 8 minutes before closing. We asked if they were still open, and we were very cheerfully told to come in and sit down. I know the staff must have been tired and ready to go home, but they treated us like we were regulars. The food was good, too. Whole catfish was cooked just right, not overdone, and the raw oysters were very fresh. Only complaint was that the oysters were very small - but with the oil spill this summer, it's that way all over town, so I didn't bother to say anything.

Grilled tacos & veggies. I had their grilled tacos with pico de gallo, slice of avacado per taco (3 in the meal). This entree is served with cole slaw, lettuce/tomato and lemons. Your choice of sides included fries, steamed broccoli & cauliflower or grilled squash & zuchinni. I opted for the grilled veggies and they were tasty! They were cooked a minute too long and were a little on the soft side. The tacos were excellent, with an great spice and the creamy avacodo slice was heavenly. The service was great as my drink was never empty, my emptly plate was promptly removed and the waitress was friendly.

A Good Lunch On A Rainy Day. We arrived for lunch on cold, rainy day (Stockshow weather) and got the last available table near the counter. We had the clam and oyster lunch specials and both the seafood and French fries were freshly prepared. We found the creamy coleslaw to be exceptionally good. The service was efficient and friendly and we were completely satisfied with our experience. It looks like a good place to try when the weather is better and the outside seating area is available.

Ske's okay. Went once and ordered a half dozen oysters with a fillet of grilled tuna as my main. I found my oysters tasted a bit fishy. Sounds funny I know, but by that I mean they may have been less than fresh. Outside of that, the tuna was simply prepared with some sort of spicy rub and served alongside a bed of rice. It was simple enough, but also not remarkable. The whole thing wasn't that expensive, but if we're talking about inexpensive seafood places in Fort Worth, I thnk Flying Fish is a better bet. Better beer selection too.

Fish Tacos & Beer!!!. I love, love, love,love the grilled fish tacos! I've had them crispy, too...actually, both are good. They updated the outdoor patio & made the tables more comfortable. Fun to watch the grackles snatch saltine packets off the tables.
Fort Worth Hole In The Wall
Well, I'm sure a lot of people from Fort Worth have been to or seen J&J but I just went by the other day and wanted to remind everybody how good it is. Just as an oyster bar should be, it is small and smoke filled. Perfect setting for some good food. I ha
