This restaurant offers simple and delicious deep-fried fish and seafood, available only by the half-pound or pound. The coleslaw is sold in the same way, and I'm not even sure if there are any other side dishes on the menu—perhaps they have fries. They do offer around seven different beers to choose from. Food is served on sheets of wax paper in a paper boat. While it isn't the cheapest option, the fish and shrimp are excellent, with the shrimp being particularly large. The perch might be lake perch, but they are battered and deep-fried, which is a unique experience for me. My personal favorite is lake perch prepared the way they do in Northwest Indiana, which is very lightly floured and bro...
The food was underwhelming. I was disappointed by the prices and ultimately chose not to eat there, especially given the evident dedication of the employees. I could see that they took great pride in the food they were preparing, which made it difficult for me to give Shrimp Shack a five-star rating; that would feel unfair, particularly if the employees were to leave in search of better opportunities for their growth and development. If that were to happen, the quality of the food would likely decline significantly.
Just had a Shrimp Shack lunch, and was not disappointed. The shrimp (1/2 pound was plenty for one hungry person) were breaded rather heavily, but the breading was tasty. The shrimp was cooked to perfection, and the cocktail sauce matched it excellently. The cook/waiter/only person there was more than pleasant. Can't wait to try more of the menu of this place!
The food was Excellent!! Restaurants in Minnesota need to take notes, lol The shrimp ? are HUGE! Too bad I ate them before snapping a pic. I was greeted with a smile. The place was nice and clean. Will definitely be returning to try more menu items. Book a table now
This place is scammy as can be! Charged for things I did not order. The employees are rude and belligerent too. There are plenty of seafood spots in the city, do yourself a favor and avoid this place. They gonna rip you off.
Great fried fish haven!!! Clean and fast service best shrimp and chicken on the entire westside.Flying in or out of Midway? Allow yourself some extra time to grab a meal at Shrimp Shack.
Might not have a good curb appeal but once you step inside the place looks good. The food is definitely top notch ?? highly recommend to try out, you will not be disappointed
If you love chicken sharks always be good to eat, don't have to worry about it cooking or anything else just bring hot food home to eat with your family Book a table now
Excellent breaded shrimp. I always kick myself for not getting a pound when I order a half pound. The service is always good and orders are filled fast.
The lake perch and clam strips were excellent. Cooked perfectly. This was my first time here, but I will definitely be back!
