    Shrimp New Orleans
    De Saltino D.

    Food was decent but not that flavorful, fish needs more seasonings, very bland! Service was nice and people were frequently but had to track waitress down for refills. Don't get the sweet tea!! Bathrooms are nasty!!!!

    Salmon and shrimp combo

    The Bubba Gump restaurant at the Orlando Universal CityWalk was a fun stop after a long day at the Universal Studios. I like Tracy's friendly service and her small trivial quiz about Forrest Gump. I enjoyed the shrimp and broccoli dish I had today. The salmon was cooked too hard and dry though.

    This drink came with souvenir glass!

    Stopped in for a quick bite and drinks at the bar. The drinks were great and the service was excellent. We ordered the sampler appetizer and it was only ok. I'll definitely try something else next time. The place itself is pretty fun with all the Forest Gump decor. There's so much that I'm willing to bet plenty of people are convinced Forest Gump was a real person... They also have a cute gift shop and photobooth.

    Ok, so fun fact about me. I've never watched Forrest Gump and I had never been to a Bubba Gump location in my life.. BUT I have enough of a pop culture frame of reference to know about the film but I was surprised to learn that this restaurant is related to this film lol. It was my last meal during my Orlando vacation and I had a great time. I had a crab boil which was decent enough. The meal definitely met my expectations for a chain restaurant in a touristy family friendly area. Our server was very nice, I would say that it took a little long for the food to come out but I was admittedly tired after spending a long and hot day at Epic Universe. What I appreciated the most was the ties to the film, which I am now more motivated to watch after eating here.

    I had dinner here with a few colleagues while wrapping up a work trip. We were seated quickly and our drink orders were taken. I was excited to try a new boba lemonade they had on the menu. It also came in a very adorable reusable cup so even better and justifying the price (I knew I wouldn't be getting a refill lol). The boba lemonade was delicious. I almost always order the fried shrimp when I come here, but in the spirit of eating a bit cleaner this day, I ordered the salmon and shrimp with a side of broccoli and white rice. My meal was tasty but I would probably go back to my po' boy fried shrimp order per usual lol

    I've been to bubba gump shrimp around the world. This wasn't my favorite location due to the quality of the food. The food was bland and had little flavor in the batter, however the service was great, we were seated quickly and our food came out in less than 30 minutes

    Lt. Dan's Drunken Shrimp
    Danielle J.

    Been a while since experiencing Bubba Gumps. Busy and vibrant. The staff were fantastic and fun. The food was just OK. The Lt. Dan's Drunken shrimp special looked great, but somehow was missing flavor and was actually a bit cold. The jambalaya was hearty and good. The wine selection seems a bit of an afterthought but it is a more "casual" place. The service is what really stood out here.

    Coronaritas to kick off the night!

    One of our fav spots to grab a drink and appetizer at CityWalk!!! We love to sit at the bar after a fun Universal park day and enjoy a drink and share an appetizer. We tend to get the Run Across America Sampler which is Fried Shrimp, Seafood Hush Pups, Chicken Tenders, Queso Dip, Tortilla Chips, and a few Dipping Sauces. The bartenders are always super nice and friendly and the atmosphere is so fun with all of the Forrest Gump items around the restaurant.

    ribeye steak and shrimp

    Had a great experience! Alex and Jerry were awesome and the trivia/comedy was the BEST!! Well worth the stop, great service and the food was delicious!! I also loved the TV playing Forrest Gump and the upbeat environment! Soooo much details to look at all over the walls.

    We loved our recent Thursday evening experience at Bubba Gump at the CityWalk! Our server, Doug, was excellent and the food was delicious. Their special anniversary "Dippin' Broth" is a must, must order!

    First time here and will definitely be back! Stopped in here on the way to see a movie and had a great experience!! Sat at the bar and the bar tender was super friendly!! I tried the appetizer sampler which is called 'Run Across America Sampler'. Which is such a fun name!! The inside of the restaurant has such a fun theme! I'll definitely be coming back here soon!

    So glad we were able to stop at this location when we were at Universal City Walk. It wasn't busy they were able to seat us down. The waiter recommended the stuff shrimp and yes there's crab. Hubby got that and he said he would go back and order that again I got the new orlean and replace the rice for pasta. It was delicious. Can't wait for our trip back when we visit Florida again. So sad that the Hawaii location closed down. The located is located at city walk. The place is clean and there's lots of table. The customer services is great. We will be back again. Maybe in another location or bring it back to Honolulu.

    We gave this place another try...our last experience was not the best..I had a gift card and being a Landry member they sent me a special treat for my Birthday, so why not? Mike the manager came over and introduced himself and wanted to make sure we had a great experience ...We had Yasmin for our server and she was just adorable and full of personality! Ordered the large app. With Queso, Shrimp, Chicken, Hushpuppies and was served hot and fresh and also the Fish platte with Shrimp and the same for that...lots of food and hot and fresh and served quickly..ordered Strawberry Lemonade, very good but not 8.00 good, that was a little shocker... Overall for a tourist place it was very good and you can see management interacting with the guests and I love seeing that they are concerned...I would go back again when we are on area again..we had. A good experience and loads of food...you must check out the adorable gift shop too!

We were staying at a Holiday Inn near Disney Springs so we decided to come here for a late dinner. One of the best decisions made here. We did a late night walk through the shopping center and landed here around 9:50 pm. It was pretty late and we worried there would be no seats but we were seated promptly. The establishment was very ambient, cozy, and well furnished. I liked the warm, glowing atmosphere of the restaurant. The server was extremely polite and took our order quite soon. We were starving after a long day but the food came out in around 20ish minutes which wasn't too bad. The serving sizes were quite huge. We didn't expect this much food for two portions. For $34 per plate, the dishes were large and came with a large helping of sides. The fried chicken was extremely crispy and juicy. They originally wanted to serve the food quickly/more fresh so they served a chicken thigh to me after on a second plate. They also forgot my substitution of Mac n cheese for mash potatoes so I got a free helping of mash which was sweet. The pickled cucumber was light and fresh which tasted great with the heavier chicken. The potatoes were a little heavy and I wish came with gravy, but still delicious. I really loved the Mac n cheese and finished that up. The chicken steak was also delicious with the grits but a little too salty. Wish they added the grits to the side for me to dip as it became a little too much at times. It was better to eat it with a side of potatoes to balance the flavor. The broccolini was sautéed perfectly and delicious, could eat a whole plate of those alone. The biscuits weren't bad but tasted better eaten with the potatoes. The food was a little heavy but so so good. We had to take half of the food to our hotel and ate it the next day for dinner as it was way too much food for one meal. Even after microwaving it, the food was just as delicious and flavorful. We spent about $80 but had so much food leftover. An expensive dinner, but everything tasted amazing. Would definitely come back if I had the chance.
