Long John Silver’s has been the most popular seafood fast food restaurant for over 50 years. They are known for their platters of fried shrimp and cod, crispy fish sandwiches, and sides of hushpuppies. They even boast some delicious chocolate chip cookies.

The first Long John Silver’s opened in Lexington, Kentucky in 1969, and by the late '70s, there were more than 1,000 Long John Silver’s restaurants across the country.

Even though the popular restaurant has had periods of growth and success, it also has had its fair share of downs. Here is the untold truth of Long John Silver’s.
