Not the best unfortunately I got the "Cajun shrimps" which didn't specify how much it had. I received my bag and it was the smallest bag of shrimp boil i have ever had. There were only 12 shrimps, yes I counted lol. Compared to all other shrimp boils places in LA for the same price, this was not it. Flavor- 3/5 - nothing to write home about. I've had so many shrimp boils that are much more flavorful Will not be ordering again read more

Better source, better service, cheaper, not good as before. Feel food is not well cooked, potato is still so hard to eat. read more

Cajun Shrimps Inn - Cajun Mix Seafood Tray ( 2-4 person ) - Cajun/Creole Near Me - El Monte, California

BF found this spot in our own neighborhood and wanted to try it. We came to order for dinner to take home. They have their own signage, but it shares space with Tyler Market. Once you walk through the automatic doors, just head on back towards the kitchen area, where your order will be taken and made to order, probably by the order taker. While your food is being made, you pay at the market's registers. We ordered 2 lbs of the cajun shrimp ($16 per lb) at mild spicy level, an order of the fish and chips ($14.95), and an order of fried shrimps only ($12.95). Our cajun shrimp order included two free pieces of corn on the cob, which we appreciated. The fish and chips order includes 8 pieces of fried fish and the fried shrimps only order includes 15 pieces of fried shrimps. The fish and shrimps have different breading from each other and yet, both tasted delicious. I suggest dipping your fish, chips (fries), and shrimp in the sauce from the bag of cajun shrimp for enhanced flavor! We opted out of the tartar sauce and cocktail sauce for the fish and shrimps, and trust me, the sauce from the bag of cajun shrimp is a must try substitute! Mild still had plenty of spice and garlic. Portions of the three items were more than enough for the two of us. The plaza that Cajun Shrimps Inn is in doesn't have a lot of parking spaces, but we didn't have trouble with spots when we arrived on a weekday at 6 pm to order to go. Street parking is also an alternative. BF and I didn't care too much for Boiling Crab as our past visits left much to be desired. Glad we found Cajun Shrimps Inn and we're happy to support a local mom and pop shop. read more

I always see this establishment popping up on my Yelp food search & I was curious to see how Cajun seafood would taste from a small neighborhood supermarket. On a whim I called for togo and got the mixed seafood tray and it was massive. It was more than enough for 3 people. You really get the bang for your bucks and it really does the job if you're craving seafood. It's a little salty in my opinion but my neighbor and fiancé enjoyed it. read more

Cajun Shrimps Inn - Mix Seafood Tray - Cajun/Creole Near Me - El Monte, California

Oh yes, you need to try this place. This hidden gem inside Tyler Market is worth the trip. I tried the shrimp fish n chips and it was definitely worth every penny! $16 and you get sooo much food that's shareable for two. Let me break down this fried deliciousness. Sauces- you might want to order extras because the tartar sauce is off the charts and the cocktail sauce is just as amazing. So which is better? I will let you decide because I absolutely love both. Fish- being fried it actually is not greasy at all and the fish is cooked to perfection. They are huge pieces and are sooo good. Flavor by itself is great, but the sauces take it to another level. Shrimps- big and juicy and cooked perfectly. Some places give you more breading than shrimp but not this place the breading to shrimp ratio is on point. The owner is such a sweetheart. He truly takes pride in cooking each item perfectly. He is detailed in his craft that he even cuts a hole out at the top of the container to release the steam so you don't end up with soggy shrimp or fish. This place is truly awesome and if you try it out I hope you enjoy it as much as I have. I look forward to trying the other menu items. read more

Cajun Shrimps Inn - Shrimp Fish (4) 'n' Shrimp (8) 'n' Chips - Cajun/Creole Near Me - El Monte, California

The flavor of the seafood boil was excellent. It had sausages, shrimp, tofu, imitation crab, mussels, clams, potatoes and corn. The best price for a seafood mx. The service was excellent. So nice and chill. This place is in a market type ambience so it was easy to just walk in. Maybe you might want to pick up some sodas as well as your food. It is so worth the experience. Thank you. read more

This place is located inside the small market. When you walk into the market, it's straight ahead and you'll see the big menus above. I ordered through UberEats and went there to pick up. I honestly wasn't expecting much because I've never heard of this place before or knew of its existence if it wasn't for UberEats. I ordered 2 lbs for shrimp and 2lbs of clams, with 2 corns. The older asian gentleman in the front was very polite and friendly. He even gave me more corn for free. All the seafood tasted fresh and the mild sauce was indeed mild. The sauce wasn't too salty and had a good amount of garlic. The shrimp was a bit smaller than I hoped, so that was the only thing I would complain about. I loved that they packed all the limes, salt/pepper containers, and hot sauce. They were generous with the limes. They even included plates and utensils-- had everything we needed. I really appreciate that! I definitely will be coming back here to support this small business as oppose to going to Boiling Crab. Shoutout to the gentleman for his wonderful customer service! read more

Cajun Shrimps Inn - $14/lb shrimp and $12/lb clams, $1.25 for corn - Cajun/Creole Near Me - El Monte, California

Found this place while looking for shrimp on my meal delivery app. I'm going to be nice because there are many positive reviews for this location. As I perused the menu I saw there were many great shrimp and fish options available. I placed an order for mild, medium and hot shrimp. I also requested a fried shrimp and fish plate. Upon delivery I was impressed with the neat packaging. The fish and shrimp plate was easy to identify. Unfortunately the individual shrimp flavors were not easy to figure out. I was able to identify them by the additions requested in the bags. On to the food...The fried shrimp were a nice size and tasty. The fried fish was a bit bland. The order of seasoned fries, sadly lacked seasoning. Our shrimp in the bags all had the same flavor and seemed a bit hard/ overcooked. The flavor was ok at best, I found myself trying to find more flavor by sampling each bag. Three stars...one for value, one for packaging and one for nice sized portions. I truly enjoy good peal and eat Cajun shrimp. Unfortunately, I will most likely not order from here again. read more

Fish (4) Shrimp (8) & chips. Very tasty. Crunch held up to the ride from the store to our dinner destination. Also had a side of corn on the cob. Possibly previously frozen, but was also quite good. We will come again. Oh this is located inside a small market. Very nice and friendly gentlemen that attended to us. read more

Ordered a bag for delivery. I'm sorry, but the flavor was not it! Something was and did not taste like Cajun at all. Also, there was no juice in the bag. The shrimp was good, the potatoes were over cooked, the sausage was okay, and the corn was over cooked as well. 5/10 I would recommend read more

Located in a grocery market. Ordered: -Shrimp & chips -Fish & chips Pro: -Plenty of parking in the small plaza -Fries can be seasoned if you want which I recommend! -The tartar sauce is homemade & not too heavy which we liked -Shrimp was crunchy & juicy!! Fish was also delicious!! I personally liked the shrimp more because it had a different panko style breading -Portions are generous Con: -Might be confusing if no one is behind the counter, but the owner (who is very nice) is probably just hanging out in front of the market Note: -It seems most people seem to order during dinner time since I was the only one ordering at noon, but the owner was happy to take my order. -The shrimp and chips come with cocktail sauce so if you want tartar sauce, just ask! read more

I was craving Cajun Seafood the other day, so my wonderful bf bought us a whole tray. Can't believe this whole thing only costs like almost $60. I thought that was such a great deal for this whole variety. It made such a satisfying dinner and lunch for the next day. This hidden gem is called Cajun Shrimps Inn and it's located at Tyler Market in El Monte, CA, go check it out! read more

All of the reviews are from one year ago. We went yesterday and ordered take out, ordered a party tray of Cajun shrimps, it did not taste like Cajun shrimps at all. It's lack of butter, and garlic ( just a bit of garlic and it's minced not fresh ) instead they put some kind of herb or too much thyme we don't know what it is just doesn't take like Cajun shrimps. The service was excellent, serviced by two brothers, but I think the owners changed, it wasn't the same owners as it used to be. I'd pay more or drive to Stinkin crawfish or other Cajun shrimps places. read more

Cajun Shrimps Inn - Cajun/Creole Near Me - El Monte, California

Was feeling ragin for cajun and this place is pretty local. Don't expect to eat there because this is located in Tyler grocery store and there isn't any tables. It took about 30 minutes to make once I ordered and it was total worth it. I got the seafood mix tray for $54 dollars and it literally comes with everything you'd want (shrimp, mussels, clams, sausages, corn, potatoes, fish cakes, and imitation crab), enough for 4-6. They don't skimp out on portions here but the best part is that the food tastes delicious. The sauce isn't overpowering but strong enough cajun flavor. We got spicy and it was just the right amount, not bad at all. Overall I'm totally going to come back here for cajun food. I would call ahead if you don't wanna wait though. read more

After trying Cajun Shrimps Inn, twice, through UberEats, I finally decided to stop being lazy and share my two cents. Both experiences were great. I've ordered the shrimp, clams, seafood tray, and fish and chips. I really enjoyed the flavor of their sauce, as it's flavorful, has a lot of garlic for some crunchy goodness, and isn't super greasy. I had the sauce in mild, which is not actually spicy, but happens to be perfect for my preference. (Ability to tolerate spice went downhill after entering my 30s. ) I love topping a bowl of jasmine rice with spoonfuls of their sauce. In addition to the delicious food, I appreciate how careful and thoughtful they are with the preparation and packaging of the food. My orders arrived piping hot each time, and I loved that they included plenty of all the essentials to accompany the meal ( i.e., lime, salt & pepper, cocktail sauce, plates, napkins, and gloves.) They also left me a handwritten "Thank you!" on both of my orders. I'm so glad I gave Cajun Shrimps Inn a chance after scrolling past them on UberEats since last year, and I look forward to supporting them and making my tummy happy again. read more

THE CAJUN BOIL WAS TO DIE FOR! For the price, this is unbeatable especially since I got the deluxe seafood platter and that fed my family of 6. The owner was super generous and a really welcoming individual when you arrive. So glad that this is close by and the way my food was delivered to me, I can tell this owner and business cares about serving good food to the community! Can't wait to come back and order more. read more

It's a small little spot located in a mini grocery mart. It is next to a laundry mat. Looks can be deceiving with the area don't write this place off because the meal was pretty tasty. I had ordered my food through gun hub to pick up and was ready a few minutes before. I ordered Spicy shrimp and Cajun fries with a side of corn. My kid loved the corn. Everything was hot and tasty. And the service was fine there no long line they ask the name and hand you the bag. Staff was wearing gloves and masks and there was hand sanitizer if needed. read more

Cajun Shrimps Inn - Entrance - Cajun/Creole Near Me - El Monte, California

Gave this place a try because of the reviews on Yelp and Facebook. All them reviews must have been from friends n family because the food was not good. Since this was my first time, I went and ordered at the counter so I know it was fresh. And I only live 10 minutes away. I ordered 1 lb of shrimp spicy and 1 lb of mussel very spicy and both tasted mild with barely an sauce to dip the seafood in. Also the seafood was way over cooked which made it taste rubbery. Like chewy on a condom. Fries were okay. I guess it was $50 donation to small business since we didn't finish the food. Extra star for owner reaching out! read more

Cajun Shrimps Inn - Sooo Fresh!! Sooo tasty!! I will definitely go back!! - Cajun/Creole Near Me - El Monte, California

I was really looking forward to eating here because of their positive reviews. I was extremely disappointed when I got home and opened my order. I had ordered 3 pounds of shrimp, corn on the side, their fried shrimp special, and their chicken nugget plate. Everything was great, except for the fact that they filled my shrimp order with extra corn that I never asked for. This added to the weight of the shrimp. In actuality, I received MAYBE 2 pounds of shrimp instead of 3. I frequent many Cajun places and I know how many pounds of shrimp feeds my family... how disappointing. read more

My husband and I were in the mood for cajon seafood. After calling boiling crab with no answer, we searched local cajon seafood restaurants and came across this gem. The location can be deceiving, but you won't regret stopping by. Tom is the owner and cook for the Cajon Shrimp Inn, which is inside the market. My order was ready when I arrived and there was no line to pay at the market's cash register. The mussels and shrimp were fresh, still steaming hot, and the cajon sauce was delicious. I got the medium spicy which had a little kick and left a mild burning sensation on my lip. Perfect amount of heat for me. Definitely recommend!! Also thanks Tom for the free of charge corn. I will definitely be back soon. read more

My husband and I were in the area and decided to check out this place since it had such great reviews. The place is inside a market which made me think, it's really going to be good. I asked them what kind of fish do you have, and the gentleman went in the back (because he wasn't sure I guess) and came back out and showed me a yellow Gorton's fish fillet bag! I looked at my husband and I asked them asked the gentleman, is your Shrimp from a bag as well, and he said yes. I walked out the door. I would have expected fresh fish and maybe even farm raised shrimp, but not something that is prepackaged that they probably sale in that market. If you go here, ask them where they get their seafood from! read more

The shrimp here are really good and tasty. Its local to me and has great flavor. I usually get 2 lbs 1 with hot spice flavor and add sausages and crab meat, the other Medium spice and sausages. It also comes with 1 corn which is really cool of them to provide. I've also had fish and chips and its really good as well. The fish and chips come with tartar sauce or cocktail sauce. They're both good. Give them a try support small business's. read more

I ordered from Cajun Shrimps for the first time through Uber Eats and this place is a gem!! I got their 1 pound shrimp order and french fries and everything came piping hot to my home and packaged with care. The portions are huge for both the shrimp and the french fries, and I was pleasantly surprised that they included free corn on my order. And last but not least, everything tasted amazing; the mild cajun seasoning on the shrimp was garlicky and yummy. I will continue ordering from here and will visit the location in person soon. read more

WOW! I have to say that their Cajun shrimp was DELICIOUS!! I am a huge fan of boiling crab and their Cajun shrimp, but this small business is honestly BETTER than boiling crab. I placed my order through Ubereats and I love how well they packaged my food. They wrapped my shrimp in foil so that it would be warm and once I opened it my food was hot, as if it was freshly served! Perfect temperature. I will definitely be ordering from here whenever I am craving shrimp! 10/10 would recommend ( coming from a shrimp lover )!! read more

Cajun Shrimps Inn - Cajun/Creole Near Me - El Monte, California

This aint it bro :( the breading is not tasty nor does it look like some of the pictures. Reminds me of tasteless chicken tender breading. Sometimes theres no meat in the bread. Sometimes a lot of water in the meat between the bread, which is just gross lol. I believe the breading is so thick that it traps moisture. Its worth a try i guess. Dont order a lot like i did thinking its going to be good. Wasted like 90% of $34 lol. The breading tries to grow on you as you keep trying to eat it a little. Respectfully definitely not going back. Its times like this i miss new york bro ... shouldve went with my other option of fish tacos to get my fish fix. The shrimp was avg flat breaded shrimp, cooked well on the outside but the inside was just a little undercooked otherwise i couldve enjoyed it more. The meat inside wasnt firm. The breading on the shrimp and fish is different btw!. The fries were decent and well seasoned. The customer service was low grade lolol. Trash personalities. I havent gave a 1 start rating in such a long time it feels weird but if the experience is doodoo then it is what it is :( :/ read more

Ordered 1 pound of shrimp, 1 pound of clams, and the seasoned fries. Shrimp was a bit mushy and not veined, Clams were frozen clams but it was still pretty decent, and seasoned fries was pretty good. I would give the place a 3.5/5 but would just round it up to 4/5. It's alright but nothing special, it's conveniently close to where I leave. I might order again, but I personally still prefer some other places like boiling crab. read more

So I just ordered a bag of clams and lobster meat with corn on the cob through DoorDash and i am so infuriated on how dry and cold my food was and it definitely wasn't the door dashers fault because it tasted so cold that it seemed like they didn't even cook it right. So whoever is working the shift right now is doing a horrible cause I've ordered from here and never had a problem with it but seriously whoever is working the shift right 2:00 - 4:00 right now cause I got my order at 3:14 should be FIRED. Not even trying to sound like a Karen right now but literally am pist off cause this is ridiculous and then to top it off the livestream meat was still like like together and very very cold like frozen cold. I'm not going to lie I ate some of it cause I'm really hungry and now I feel sick to my stomach cause I thought heating it up in the microwave would help but it's just tastes worst . So whoever is the manger please fire whoever did the order for Bryan Muñoz in South El Monte . Or check on your cooks if they are cooking the food right. I'm hoping I don't get sick from this seafood cause I legit feel bad for throwing it away cause my husband works hard for his money and now I feel bad throwing away this food cause of how disgusting it tastes . read more

Didn't know what to order so I ended up getting the mixed seafood tray ($54 + tax + tip, even though there's no tip jar, support mom & pop!) to get a little bit of everything and it was very flavorful with a nice spicy kick!
