They were busy and ignored us completely. It would have been understandable but they had 3 employees standing around talking and laughing. The guys were goofing around and the girls were hard at work behind the bar. It would have been nice to be acknowledged properly and seated. Because they seemed so flustered we just left. Maybe it was just a bad day. We may try again later but next time at least give your guests one of the many open tables to sit at. There were mostly empty tables and guests standing around. Several were waiting for pick up. Please accommodate in person guests and don't allow covid to change your focus into pick-up or curb side while neglecting the guests at your door. read more

Okay, I didn't like the outside furniture, it feels cheap and not quiet comfy. Wait staff was very attentive and accommodating! Food I order the shrimp Poboy (hey it's in their restaurants name so it better be good) and well I didn't love it- nor hate it. It could have used some special sauce or something... the bun was soggy with some mayo slapped on. The shrimp was okay but really just okay But dang that crab cake was sooooo darn good, I am hooked and will be back for it!!! Prices are alright for the area. read more

The whole experience was terrible. The food was garbage nothing was cooked hush puppies were hard as rocks the shrimp were still cold and chewy waited over an hour for our food. If I could give this place zero stars I would, I will never go back. Would not recommend this place go to the one in Pensacola Also watched as people that got there after my girlfriend and I got their food and ate and left before we even got our appetizers read more

My wife and I try to go here a couple times a month. We love the Tuesday oyster special. Our server Mackenzie was outstanding and provided excellent service. If you're in the area and want a decent meal at a good price, I highly recommend giving it a try! read more

Wonderful service, all staff had on a mask unlike the first place we went to. Food was wonderful, but what's to go wrong with fried seafood!

I don't mind it. But it's really great food I think. But when I'm not in the mood I don't mind it. Thank you shrimp basket.

Fried food was all cooked long before serving. Soggy and disgusting. Expired salad dressings given to us. No sauce on boom boom shrimp. The entire meal was awful. They can at least pitch expired salad dressings read more

No no no Sea good? I didnt like it!! No options, the fríe fish or all can you eat no good idea

This location has inside and outside seating. It is a popular spot and gets packed at dinner time. Started with seafood queso dip appetizer that was excellent! Chunks of shrimp sunk to the bottom so you had to dig for them with the hot pita chips! Wow, loved it. I also had to try a cup of their seafood gumbo with rice. It was hot, just-right-spicy and tasty. My entree was the crawfish PoBoy that comes with fries and their "signature shrimp coleslaw". The PoBoy itself was perfect, overflowing with fried mud-bugs!!!! The fries were good too but their slaw was weirdly off. I was off balance after trying the slaw trying to determine what was missing. Their Cajun pasta entree was SPECTACULAR!!!!! Penne pasta tossed in a Cajun cream sauce with conecuh, onions, bell peppers, and Parmesan cheese. You can have either shrimp or chicken, the shrimp was small but excellent. I washed it all down with 2 mojitos. The server was good but slow and seemingly distracted. Overall a great meal and deep fried experience. read more

See all

The fried shrimps and fishes were too browned for my taste. Corn fritter was good but only 1 quantity. Hush puppies were too dried

Such a good place to eat! We had crab cakes and they were flavorful, full of meat, and crispy. The best meal I've had my whole trip :) boom boom shrimp was also a huge hit. Locals are chatty and friendly and the service is attentive read more

Looks like a fast food joint from outside but don't let it fool you. Food was really good, kids enjoyed chicken basket and hamburger. Gumbo was great and all you can eat shrimp on Tues is a must. read more

Nothing special but ok dinner, has gone up in price like everything else. No wait, early evening meal. Service was just ok.

It doesn't look like much from the outside, but the food is awesome. The folks next to us at the RV park, across the road from the Shrimp Basket, called it sit down fast food. They were right about it being fast, but the implication was it wasn't very good. They could not be more wrong. I had a Cajun flounder basket, she had fried catfish. My flounder was many small fillets, which could easily have been over cooked but wasn't. It was moist and tender. It came with hush puppies and a corn cake, and I got Turnip greens too go with it. The turnip greens actually outshined everything, I love the south! The fried catfish was well made, good breading, correctly cooked so it was crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside. Her fries were great too. And did not taste like they came from the same fryer as the fish, another good sign. She liked my turnip greens so much she got a bowl for herself. The other thing of note was the coleslaw, which actually has a shrimp component to it, and was awesome. They had two local beers on draft, which worked. Service was good; friendly and efficient, which again beat expectations. If we were staying in the area longer we would definitely go back. read more

Family of three takes in the Shrimp Basket! Boys stared out with fried pickles and ranch and they were good but the order portions are very large. Son ordered the white fish basket and stated that the fish was amazing, fries were over seasoned, and was not a fan of the corn fritter. He does not eat slaw or hush puppies so those went uneaten. I ordered the white fish & shrimp combo and the fish was amazing, shrimp was very good and I loved the fries. The hush puppies were also very delicious and not greasy as they sometimes can be, I also didn't eat the slaw. Hubby got fish tacos that he loved and also enjoyed the fries. He got popcorn shrimp but it did not arrive until we were done eating. The food was good and the meal with tip came to about $100 with tip. They were a bit busy so be prepared to wait as they only had two staff on that day. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable and the outdoor seating area was perfect for the sunny day! read more

My husband had six oysters on his full size po-boy. My grilled flounder was not grilled. It was sautéed in butter. It wasn't whole. It was pieces of fish. I'm not even sure if it was flounder. read more

Good food, great staff, a little slow due to wait staff shortage

Stopped by this place for a quick lunch in Navarre. First, the waitress/bartenders were among some of the friendliest I have ever encountered. Very pleasant. The service was fast, but the food was just so-so. The boiled shrimp was good, but the fried shrimp seemed very bland. The stuffed crab was one of my favorites. I would certainly be willing to eat here again. read more

Very inviting, friendly staff, great service, matched with amazing food! I will definitely be back! Shawn the manager was very personable with us and made sure we enjoyed our visit. It was nice to finally have some sincere Southern Hospitality! Thank you for a great experience! read more

Ate here for the first time last night, on vacation. We have never been to Navarre before this trip and have enjoyed trying out the local eateries. The Shrimp Basket is a low-key, very casual restaurant with great food at an even better price! My Dad had popcorn shrimp, my Mom had clams & I got the chicken strip basket with new potatoes that were to die for! We will definitely be coming back. I would've given 5 stars if it hadn't been for the bathroom. The one toilet in the women's wasn't working properly, running constantly, wouldn't flush & absolutely filthy. I know this could've easily of gotten this way during the dinner rush & no one had time to check it out, but it was very gross. Other than that our experience was great! read more

We came here from Virginia and we had the waitress, Mckinzey she was amazing so polite and so thoughtful. It was excellent service. They staff has great team effort with helping serve the tables. We enjoyed our time there. The food was great. I really like the boom boom shrimp and the gumbo. Definitely get the chocolate lava cake for dessert it was amazing! read more

We ate there last night and all three of our party liked the food we got. I had the crab cakes, sister got the Cajun pasta and brother in law got the shrimp basket. Waitress was friendly and food came quickly. We'd definitely go back. read more

Great food and service. The redfish was amazing as was the shrimp appetizer. The salad was also memorable not just a plain salad - it had cranberries on top! Also, every person in the place was nice and courteous - it was as if you could tell they love their jobs they were so naturally friendly! Thank you for a great dining experience read more

The customer service is awesome ... love the upbeat, friendly servers ... the decor is gulf coast, beachy casual and fun with music and high energy. The food is decent ... not great, but this place is worth a try. read more

Shrimp Basket - Seafood Near Me - Navarre, Florida

The good thing is the quick wait time. The not-so-good part is the wrong order being placed for multiple orders (2) at our table. The not-so-good part was 2 out of 5 adults not satisfied with our food. With one out of five enjoying the food and saying it was good, and another 2 out of five stating it was 'okay'. The staff was nice and cordial. read more

love the staff!!! Deb, Sahari, and Laz did an amazing job!!! it's always perfect

This was probably one of my favorite places on our trip. The food here was reasonably priced and tasted just as good as any of the fancier restaurants we ate at. The service was outstanding and I highly recommend this place. read more

We stopped in not knowing the area and didn't look at reviews. We had gumbo, fish tacos and fried okra. Everything was delicious and the prices were very reasonable. The manager was very friendly. We'll definitely go back! read more

Visited many times, friendly staff, good food except the peel and eat shrimp, not deveined, which is a big turn off. The best potato salad around. read more

My brother n law recommended this place so wife &I stopped in on Monday night. Her shrimp poorboy was good. My dozen raw oysters were great except that one was size of a quarter. Then I also ordered the Coconut Shrimp Basket for $13.99. This was not good at all. Bland and no sweet sauce. One shrimp was horrible as if it were dropped behind the fryer on floor and recovered bad. I spit it out!. Gross x10. If I come back I'll stick with the oysters. read more

Solid, working-class, casual dress, casual food, and PLENTY of it. Waitstaff are friendly, cooks know what they're doing! Outdoor seating has nice water-mist coolers! The hush puppy offerings are NOT the strange, 'extruded' bread-things usually found in fast food eateries. Easy access heading west, not so much heading east! read more

Yummy. Simple and tasty. Plastic fork and paper towel roll are the only utensils. Portions are normal sized ( not oversized ). Bottom line everything was great! We had fried pickles, hush puppies and fried oysters to start. Hush puppies were smaller than I would have expected, but everything was cooked perfectly and the cornmeal breaking on the oysters was perfect. Our mains were shrimp fettuccine ( really a thing), and steamed fish dishes. All were just right. We had one piece of key lime pie for dessert. Nothing was fancy - the pie was similar to what we make at home - but better. We got there around five Ina holiday week night. It was just getting busy and was packed by the time we left. Go early! Also, they do allow smoking on the patio. Sit inside to avoid the smoke. read more

Shrimp Basket - Key lime pie. Simple and tasty - Seafood Near Me - Navarre, Florida

Great dinner tonight at the Shrimp Basket. Our first visit, but based on the variety on the menu we will be back. I tried the blackened shrimp and grits. It hit the spot! Simple and tasty. And only $10.99 for a big portion! My wife had the shrimp tacos with a side of red beans and rice. Tasty. She enjoyed them and spiced them up with the tables hot sauce. My only knock is that there are no beers on tap. Otherwise this place is solid! read more

Overpriced... little portions... not a good experience. I had the crawfish poboy and it was mediocre at best. My wife had boiled shrimp. There were very few and they were tiny. The fish was overcooked, the gumbo was lacking, and the servers were dressed inappropriately for a family restaurant. Would not recommend this restaurant. The only saving grace is that they have specials to assist with the huge bill they hand you at the end of your mediocre meal. read more

Mini chain. Very good fried seafood excellent raw oysters (maybe too good they were out of them one of the two evenings we ate there). Not fancy just good. Bargain price. Love it! read more

After going to the Pensacola location and being turned off from the establishment (extreme racism ) my husband and I decided to give it another try in Navarre. Our waiter was very friendly and welcoming and we greatly appreciated him after our not so good experience in Pensacola . Be sure to check out their all u can eat specials during the week. Def worth the $$ read more

What a disappointment it was. The chicken strips for the kids were so over cooked that they were hard. My shrimp po-boy had the smallest shrimp known to man on it and on top of it I ordered the deluxe and it looked like a regular sandwich. Everything we purchased was not good and was barely worth the time to eat. On top of that the service was lackluster. My mother talked to the manager and she said they were going through some growing pains due to last manager leaving recently. She didn't really apologize; she just basically said it like we should just deal with it. Not something you do when dealing with the public. I do think for the 45 minutes we waited for our food we got the short end of the stick. This change has really upset my parents since this is where they send family to when they are in town. Well they just need to recommend Rocco's from now it seems if they want a great meal in a timely manner. read more
