Our query for a seafood restaurant led us here, and at first glance almost decided to leave. The seating was minimal and we had to walk up to the counter to order. While waiting, we realized it is primarily a seafood market and take-out orders for cooked food were the main business. But the reviews were great, so we gave it a try. We were amazed at the quality and quantity of food we got. An order of crab claws and shrimp came with over 40 claws and about ten shrimp, all fried to perfection with the best tasting breading ever! The atmosphere was like old time New Orleans, on the wrong side of the tracks. But relax your snobbish standards a bit, and enjoy your seafood the way it is meant to be served!

On the menu today was the shrimp boil plate, bbq pulled pork sandwich that you can get as a combo, gumbo and shrimp bisque. So we got everything!! The shrimp boil plate was impressive! Loaded with well cooked and seasoned shrimp, corn, sausage, and potatoes. It comes with cocktail sauce and a seasoned butter dip. The gumbo was fantastic and meaty but the shrimp bisque was fine dinning! So good! Our son had the sandwich and he let me have a little taste. Nice sweet tender pork on a soft bun. Right up his alley. Great prices too. The Shrimp Lady is delivering high quality food with friendly service from a cute and modest location. A must try and if we lived closer, it would be a regular stop for us.

The shrimp lady is very friendly…read more Her hot shrimp gumbo is delish, full of flavor. No pretense. Even bay leaves found themselves in the gumbo. The shrimp bisque is also delish. It's a white sauce kind. I take a way one star cuz they ran out of BBQ sandwich and it's only 1PM. In addition to home cooked gumbo the lady also sells fresh shrimps caught from the Bay. I saw some frozen crab meats, fish such as flounder, salmon, amberjack and Mississippi catfish. This is not a formal sitting down diner so don't come in expecting a typical restaurant experience. But the food is authentic, honest and full of love.

While my friends came here for some delicious seafood, I came to try the red beans and rice. I…read morealready knew this establishment offers delicious seafood, but I wanted to sample their version of this staple cajun dish. My bowl of red beans and rice came with two small hush puppies. Then I ordered two additional sides of broccoli and sweet potato Brulé. The flavors of each item danced in my mouth. The red beans and rice tasted like an exquisite marrying of sweet, salty, pepper, spice all in the thick sauce. I closed my eyes with every spoonful. My only disappointment was that the bowl was not larger. The same wonderful feelings came from the butter-steamed broccoli. The broccoli was the perfect consistency. It was not too crunchy, nor was it too soft and limp. The sweet potato Brulé is a sweet purée of sweet potatoes with cinnamon, butter, nutmeg, vanilla and a dash of clove (I think). Did I say butter? There is lots of butter in this Brulé. Everything was delicious.! The atmosphere, our server, the food, and the presentation of the food, all combined to make a wonderful dining experience.

I had the Mahi instead. It was great. We had a great experience with super food.

Service…read morewas a highlight--staff were genuinely friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from start to finish. That said, the food was a bit of a mixed experience. The chargrilled oysters unfortunately came with quite a bit of shell, which made them difficult to enjoy--though we did manage to find some actual pearl in there, so small win and fun! The grilled fish and shrimp were noticeably overcooked, and my husband's fried shrimp leaned the same way, lacking that fresh, tender bite you hope for. Sides were decent but didn't particularly stand out for my grilled dinner. Husband said slaw and hush puppies were good, my green beans were delicious. Overall, it's a lovely place with great service, but the kitchen execution didn't quite match the setting. With a few tweaks, this could easily be a standout spot.

However, I also ordered a half dozen fire grilled oysters (pictured), and 5 out of the 6 seemed improperly cleaned because I got a mouthful of shell almost every time. The bread served with them was phenomenal though, perfectly grilled and buttered. My main entrée, the soft shell crab po'boy, was unfortunately awful. It came with 3 pickles, 3 slices of tomato, dried-out iceberg lettuce, and 2 fried soft shell crabs on what was essentially a hot dog bun. The bun couldn't even close properly and looked lazily put together. If the bun had been buttered and grilled like the bread served with the fire-grilled oysters, it easily could've been a 6/10. Add some kind of sauce, and it might've even been an 8/10. Instead, it was dry, flavorless, and only tasted salty from the crab itself. Lori was my waitress and did a great job, so I have no complaints about the service. Unfortunately, great service can't make up for disappointing food. Overall, not close to being worth ~$60, 1/5 and I wouldn't come back.
