The only reason it gets a 4 vs a 5 is the price; it's a little pricey! It's about $30 for 2 people to eat there, which is a little pricey to me, when you could go somewhere else and be waited on, spending the same amount of money. However, the beach / surfer vibe and decorations make it a pretty laid back and down to earth feel, and the food is super duper delicious! It's also gluten free and there pretty healthy, for the most part! The service is okay; sometimes they bring your food to you, sometimes they don't. It's usually teenagers working the front registers, which is fine - they've always gotten my order correct, which is NICE, because I don't ever have to have anything corrected! However, they do need to teach them how to up-sell their sides and drinks - lol! The bottom line is I will eat here again and would definitely recommend this place! read more

The place was clean and the staff was very nice. The first thing I didn't like is ordering my meal at the cash register and expected to tip for that. I'm the 15% top is highlighted to draw the customer's attention to press that one. I ordered the shrimp tacos and the cute little basket it came in made it difficult to pick up the taco. I guess it wouldn't have mattered since the shell is very thin and would tear leaving a mess. I ended up eating it with a fork. The sauce was good, but made it difficult to taste the shrimp. It was overpowering. The taco was filled with rice and lettuce and two shrimp. I probably won't be back. Pay your staff a bit more and don't ask the customer to tip since we are the ones waiting on ourselves in the dining room. I know lots of to to-go places have started doing this and it's tacky. read more

Great food and even cooler place. The food is very fresh and has a light appeal to it. I highly recommend this place if you want to eat "Healthy" but actually enjoy what you eat. I didn't know rice could be this good! read more

Calling all shrimp lovers! They serve Hawaiian style shrimp plates including their signature coco shrimp (fried coconut flake batter). I always get their sampler which let's you choose 3 of their 5 flavors. I go for their coco shrimp, lemon herb, and spicy shrimp. It comes with salad and rice, but you can adjust this if you want more salad than rice or salad only, etc. They serve 2 types of dressing: poppyseed vinaigrette and creamy ginger. You can get only one but I always get both since they're so good. Their rice is buttery, garlicky, and seasoned with herbs. Their salad is fresh and esp good with the dressings. Staff is nice, service is quick, and the restaurant decor is very on point with their theme. I cannot wait to come back again! read more

No matter what you order it's gonna be delicious! I especially love their tacos. I recommend this place for sure read more

Love Coco Shrimp! First tasted their food about 3 years ago when they had a food truck and no restaurant. Fast forward and they still have it going on! read more

I've been wanting to try this place for sometime and finally did today, didn't disappoint! The shrimp was good and the salad and rice fill you up! Looking forward to going back and trying the other combos! read more

I love the Garlic Butter shrimp and Coco Shrimp the most. I do like the rice but the portion is massive, which I cannot finish and hate wasting. I love the salad and the cranberries in it make me enjoy it more. The service is always great and the staff is always nice. They also DO NOT forget to put utensils inside the bag, which is a BIG deal if you've ever experienced others forgetting to do this! read more

A.....mazing Shrimp on point Freaking rice on point........ every time And the tacos..... wowza read more

I give it a 4 because I didn't really like the sauce I got on the food and the shrimp was really good but the people who were working were very nice and respectful and the place itself have a good vibe Would recommend if u like shrimp very filling read more

First time here and it was amazing! Great shrimp and it's really hard to decide what flavor is the best! If it was closer to where I live I would probably go here a lot! read more

This food is so good that it is addictive. The rice is amazing but you'll probably gain 5 pounds. They use tons of butter and it is absolutely delicious. Try this out but not if you're on a diet. It's amazing. read more

De. Lic. Ious. I like the spicy shrimp. My wife likes the butter garlic shrimp. Friendly staff. Super yummy food. Good prices. Five stars.

The best tacos I have ever had! I love the simplicity of their menu and hope it never changes. The rice is delicious and the salads are amazing. read more

The shrimp was small & over cooked. A tone of rice & small amounts of robbery shrimp.

Every bite is mouthwatering Don't pass up the opportunity to try this restaurant again and again read more

Wow! Ate there on Saturday during their soft opening and all I can say is "WOW!" I got a sampler so I could try the different flavors and everything was so good. Garlic shrimp were my favorite but all the flavors were really awesome! Also got a couple of the tacos to share and they were amazing too! Prices were on point too! Staff was so nice and helpful and the building had a real Hawaiian feel. Can't wait to go back for round two! read more

Food is sooooo tasty. Portions are huge. Did I mention that the food is super delicious? I have only had their food from the food truck, but love it! If you ar win the mood for some succulent shrimp, coconut or garlic butter, this is the place to stop. read more

Not impressed! Not sure about all the hype. Shrimp was nothing special just okay. I wish they did not give sooo much rice . You order in the counter so no problem there. Place was clean and good for family. read more

Took us far too long to finally eat here but now that we have we have gone 4 times and will continue to frequent this restaurant. It's great for takeout too!! The coco shrimp and garlic butter are my favorite but my whole family loves all of the flavors! The food is always extremely fresh and absolutely delicious! read more

A lot of money for so little food. But, it tasted great. If quantity isn't an issue for you, you'll enjoy it.

Inexpensive, but, way too much rice!!! Overwhelming with the rice. My shrimp tasted kinda burnt. Doubt if I will go back. read more

This place is great! My wife introduced me to their food truck so I was stoked when I heard a brick and mortar was going up near us. The restaurant has a real chill atmosphere and plays great Carib jams. Feels like your not in the city anymore:) The food is awesome. I only get the 3 flavors that come grilled, and I love them all! Their rice is awesome and they make a dang good salad that comes with your entree too. You have to check this place out, if you like shrimp done right with a cool vibe and uniqueness. Well done Coco Shrimp! I have been to the brick and mortar location in Watagua twice already and will be back many more times:) :) :) Keep doing what your doing!! read more

Best shrimp I've had in a while. The combo of rice and salad is very filling. My favorite is the sweet and spicy shrimp. The rice is also very very good. read more

See all

I wish I would have come her sooner. The ambience is super relaxed, staff friendly and the food is simply amazing. Definitely a family favorite. read more

Stooped by for a quick meal and to try this new place out. I was pleasantly surprised! The shrimp tacos are the best I've had. I highly recommend this place and will be back. A bit of advice though: if you have people in your party that do not eat shrimp they will not have any options on the menu that are not shrimp. Just an FYI. read more

Not sure about Coco Shrimp? I live in Watauga and this place just gets better every year. My go to is the Coco Tacos. Prefect size meal. You will be very satisfied you ate at the original. Well the original was a good truck that was amazing in its own right but now they have moved up to a very stylish location. Surf videos on the tv's good food in your belly. Heaven. read more

Excellent, fun atmosphere casul dining- very cool concept- everything comes in it's own to go box! Lotsa tasty rice, salad( fresh dressing!) then there's the shrimp- simple but tasty- this will be a regular staple of 'eating out' try it( richardson location-say hi to Maria!) read more

Been eating here since they were just a truck. Always amazing and their new fave of mine is the cocotacos!

Only bummer is a small selection of salad dressing. Don't go all rice unless you REALLY love rice! Tacos are the best way to go I think! read more

One of my favorite spots to visit. Love the fact you can minimize they rice for more salad.!!! The spicy shrimp is my favorite

Awesome value and excellent staff! If you want extra shrimp, each extra is a dollar more. The rice seasoning is buttery and flavorful, the coconut shrimp are butterflied and perfectly crispy every time. The place is always well staffed and everyone who works there is warm and friendly. I never finish my portion of rice, so I always get to take some home to stir fry for lunch the next day. Also, try the strawberry lemonade in the soda fountain, it tastes like real strawberries! read more

When you first hear about this joint you may think "they only offer shrimp?", but let me tell you it may be the best shrimp you've ever had! I am obsessed with their plates and their tacos are quite literally to die for! This is in my top 3 taco experiences! *chefs kiss* read more

Coco shrimp is one of my families local faves! We've been eating here since it was just a truck!

We have tried this place a couple of times. We each have tried all the flavors and each of us have our favorites . So all are good choices depending on your tastes. Served over rice. I haven't tried any of the extras . Prices a little high but it is shrimp. Service is good ,some friendly , some not. Fast food style restaurant, clean ,Hawaiian music playing and surfing videos on tv. read more

Love the food and the atmosphere. We always get the garlic shrimp, but I'm sure it's all good. Hint-- bring your cup back in and get a drink for a dollar. read more

The tacos, strawberry lemonade and the sweet spicy shrimp...The BEST...enough said. The staff is super friendly (both locations)

Great food and atmosphere, excellent service! Love the Coco Shrimp tacos and the classic signature Coco Shrimp dish with salad and their specialty rice! read more

I'm in love with this place! Cool vibe, awesome food and it doesn't use up a lot of my weight watcher points!
