Jaws Hot Chicken & Seafood - Palm Beach 1258 Palm Beach Lakes Boulevard, West Palm Beach, FL 33401

"The food used to be good under the old name. The quality has significantly decreased. They must use a cheaper supplier for the wings and fries. They also fry the chicken until it’s dry and charge you for the hot dry rubs on the wings. The owner instructs the staff not to give the customers detailed receipts unless you ask for one. They don’t want the customers to see how much they are adding to your bill. It’s really a shame."

"EDITED: January 2024. PBHC is under new ownership/management. Food is same but different, if that makes sense. Customer service is definitely not the same but it’s not bad. We visited PBHC after a long day at the zoo. We entered the restaurant to an immediate smile, kind welcome and an open kitchen (which I love). The restaurant was immaculate - nothing was out of place, no trash, nothing sticky and floors were clean. Note: There are a few bar stools (3 or 4) by the front window where you can sit and wait or eat your meal. They also have two small tables with two chairs per table for you to do the same. We took a minute to look over the menu and the young lady taking our order was always ready to answer our questions and make recommendations. We ordered the four piece hot chicken (Combo A, extra hot), the chicken tender sandwich (Combo 1, hot), burger combo (because my four year old is a burger connoisseur), a kids chicken nuggets, small corn nuggets and a slice of Oreo cheesecake. Our total was roughly $36. We ordered a soda with the burger combo and our daughter was very disappointed that we didn’t get an apple juice instead. I asked my husband to purchase a juice for her but instead it was kindly given to her by Mr. Abraham, the owner. The food was ready in a very short time and we took it to go. As we were grabbing our food, Mr. Abraham asked the young lady that took our order to give us a complimentary brownie. We were super grateful and went on our way. My oldest daughter is VERY picky - so I knew I was risking it by buying her the chicken nuggets from an unfamiliar establishment BUT to my surprise she ate them all and loved it. She claims they were spicy (they weren’t, just nicely seasoned - which she complains about here at home too) but delicious! She also loved the fries that is sprinkled with (we believe) ranch seasoning. Note: The fries were soggy by the time we got home but we expect that with any kind of fries in a to go order. That’s not the fault of the restaurant. We ate them anyway because RANCH SEASONING! The four piece leg and thigh came with two slices of bread and fries. The online menu says it was supposed to come with cole slaw, pickles and sauce but I didn’t receive that in our to go order. I didn’t mind about the missing pickles and cole slaw but I was disappointed about the sauce because I love a good sauce. Back to the chicken - HOLY CRUNCH! Even after the ride home (20 min) and the time it took to get everyone else’s food out and served - I sat down and bit into the most beautiful sounding and tasting crunchy (without heavy breading) chicken leg. You literally heard it. Mindblown! It was delicious. Perfectly cooked, moist and seasoned beautifully. I must admit the ex-hot was too hot for me and I felt the burn but it was sooooooo good that I happily ate it. NOTE: Heat comes in the form of dry rub/seasoning and not sauces. My husband had the chicken tender sandwich and it was GOOD! The bread was fresh and soft but it held up well - it is the perfect bread for this sandwich. The chicken was hot - which was the perfect amount of heat. My only suggestion would be to order the combo with the extra tender and put it in the sandwich, the sandwich needs more than one tender because the bread to chicken ratio is uneven. Nonetheless, delicious all around. Our youngest said that her burger was good but she ended up only eating half of it as she was exhausted and just wanted to sleep by the time we got home. Our Oreo cheesecake was creamy and the chocolatey brownie was decadent- I’m not sure which was better. I don’t know if the desserts are homemade but they surely tasted like they were and they were the perfect end to our meal. This morning, my oldest daughter asked me if we can go back to this restaurant because she LOVED the chicken nuggets. That is a huge compliment from her, believe me. In conclusion, will definitely be returning because good food and kindness from the owner and staff goes a long way in the food business nowadays and this establishment has both."

"I got the 5 piece tender meal and the snapper meal both were cooked perfectly however just for my taste I like a little more seasoning and spice this would have definitely been a 5 on on the food ,the service was perfect the lady at the register took my order right away the food didn't take long to cook at all,the atmosphere is a little cramped being so small it was only 8 to 10 people in the small front space ,HOWEVER please go check this place out and ditchs the fast-food and get some of that palm beach chicken I will be revisiting this place soon"

"My husband and I traveled down to South Florida and stopped at this local chicken restaurant. We were greeted by very friendly staff and the manager was exceptional in his service towards us. Everything is cooked to order nice and fresh. I had the Red Snapper and shrimp combo which the manager put in a special order for me because it was not a combo on the menu. My husband ordered the Mango Habanero chicken combo, and when I tell you hands down the best chicken that I have had. If you come down to West Palm beach make this a stop."

"I was downtown at a meeting and heading to north palm and needed a quick lunch . Saw their sign on palm beach lakes and Australian . Ordered through drive through . Was ready in under 5 minutes. Amazing catfish , the coating was crispy and fish perfect and flaky . Seasoning was perfect . Fries nice a crispy too . All this for 10 bucks . I will stop again when in the area ."
