I visited this place based on the recommendation of my sister and parents! The food was good. Cooked fresh. I had shrimp and fries. $13 (7 shrimp/ fries)! I'd visit again. I like the shrimp is fresh jumbo-sized shrimp! Fries seasoned as is, no extra seasoning was added bc none extra was needed. I didn't care for the tartar sauce- it was a bit too tart. However, their sweet and tangy sauce was really good 👌🏾. I didn't eat the roll so I don't have a review on that. Overall, the food and service was good!!!

I was greeted upon entrance with a smile and handed a menu. Ordering was quick and easy, she was patient and very nice. I was also greeted by the owner, who I have met before. We’ll be back!

Man, listen here I have never had Snapper before. I know y’all see how big this fish is sitting in my to go plate lol. The fish was banging, the okra fried nicely and these hot honey wings were “chef kiss”. Go on down there and get you a plate.

I had such a great experience at Starvin Like Marvin! The service was impeccable—the woman @ the front (wish I caught her name) was so kind, friendly, and full of great energy. She truly made our visit feel special. I ordered the shrimp and oyster combo with okra and coleslaw, and everything was hot, fresh, & delicious! Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for amazing seafood and outstanding service. I’ll definitely be back!

I love everything here. My breakfast favorites: snapper breakfast (includes eggs, grits and toast), shrimp breakfast and salmon breakfast, all their bowls. Lunch: You can't go wrong with their wings and fries, shrimp or snapper!

Went today for the first time to this location. Dad and I walked in right at the beginning of lunch time. The food was hot and fresh. Unfortunately, they did not have any Whiting, but dad went with the Swai and fries. I had the shrimp and crab cake and onion rings. The onion rings were phenomenal!!!!! Everything was delicious, and the punch was punching. 🤣🤣🤣

Just made a stop at Starving by Marvin and I’m so glad I did—the food is amazing! Everything looked so good, but I went with the honey wings and potato salad. The wings were excellent, the sauce was on point, and the fruit punch drink was really tasty. But let me tell you—the potato salad is what’s going to have me coming back again and again. It tastes just like Big Mama’s potato salad that you only get on Thanksgiving and Christmas—and I’m glad I can buy it here anytime. The food overall was top notch, the service was excellent, all smiling faces, and everybody was so friendly. That potato salad though? Next level!

OK, let me say this. I would like to apologize to starving like Marvin for not believing until I went to the new location and seen it for myself with my own eyes when I tell you this everybody fool was falling out the plate when I say this starving like Marvin is going to feed you he is really going to feed you. The food was fresh not frozen once again. The food was fresh seasoning was on point not heavy at all shrimp bigger than my three fingers The onion rings was fried perfect. The chicken wings was fried perfectly, was not dry whatsoever the fish. I swear they got a leak in the back somewhere where they pull the fish out that’s how fresh the fish was fried perfectly. Both plates was worth every penny and cent at the new location over here in Arlington off university if you’re ever in the area for lunch you won’t regret it. Stop by if you need a place to hang out for dinner or somewhere to chill and have fun stop by. You might even see me there Will be my new hangout spot. This is my honest opinion and no, I’m not getting paid for this whatsoever and yes, people have the own opinion also but to me it was all worth it starving like Marvin. It’s real everybody the plates are huge everybody.
