    A bag of food
    Michael K.

    Fast food sea food? Drive Through Sea Food? The service is a bit slow, but smiling so okay It's fast food so fast food ambience I have to admit the food was good and it came out hot and freshly cooked. It might take a little longer, but the weight is worth it.

    I first went to this location in 2022. I just found out two two weeks ago that this location is temporary closed. The food here was good, but the service was slightly slow that. I guess it was because it was during the week. I decided to herefor lunch that particular day. Parking here was slightly difficult to find, being that it's a shared parking lot. But, after a couple minutes circling the parking lot, I did manage to find a parking spot. The ambiance within this restaurant is just regular and nothing to brag about. I decided to order a shrimp po' boy sandwich that day. The bread was fresh and so were the shrimps, as they were very flavorful. The restrooms were surprisingly clean that day and presentable also. I do hope they reopen this establishment next year.

    This place I was uncertain about the food they sold her and if it was going to be good. But one night while in the area drove pass and saw the line wrapped around the building. I said say no more I will be having them for lunch and.... It did not disappoint. I got the 18 shrimp dinner which came with two sides and a drink and yall that sweet tea was everything, the shrimp and fries were good and hot, the hushpuppies were good I thought it was going to be similar to another place I had down south called buds but it wasn't. But nonetheless still good. My entire meal came up to 20 bucks I didn't check out the inside as I went through the drive through. The drive through did have a little wait but not complaining as everything was good and hot

    This review is based on my drive thru experiences because I've not been inside yet. I absolutely love Shrimp Shack and am blown away by how good their food is. Plus the fact that they have a drive thru for convenience & the staff is always friendly is why I am constantly recommending SS to others. Their shrimp & grits (not pictured) is better than I've had at pricier restaurants in town. I also love their fried shrimp platters because the seasoning and amount of batter is just perfect in my opinion. And if you like great deals, you need to go on Tuesday or Thursday when you get a 30pc fried shrimp platter w/ 2 sides for $13.99!

    Every week I barely make it till Friday before I physically cannot bring myself to cook and want to consume copious amounts of junk food. By the time Thursday rolls around, I find myself gravitating towards takeout or ordering in. Such was the mood I found myself in when I stumbled across Shrimp Shack on Ubereats. I am aware of the Tuesday and Thursday specials the offer where you can get 30 pc of shrimp with two sides for 13.99. However, I decided to go with the family platter in order to try more variety of their wares. I must say, it great exceeded my expectations. Maybe it's because I'm new to the South, and my standard isn't as high, comfort food here is amazing! Although many reviews of the place say the hush puppies had a weird taste, I am absolutely hooked on it. Sweet, savory, and slightly garlicky I know I will be coming back just for that. The portions size was definitely enough for a family of 4, the fish was delightful. I will definitely be taking my friends and family who are visiting Jacksonville as a display of local culture :P.

    I have always been curious of this place since seeing it in passing. I drive past all other fast food places. The order was made fresh and I enjoyed it. The shrimp was very good. This is the only location I know at the beach. Pretty much what you would expect From a fast food place. *Updated - Had it a few times now and has been consistent.

    Fried shrimp!

    I have never visited a Shrimp Shack Seafood and boy am I sorry I didn't visit sooner. The service was friendly. As I approached the counter, I was greeted with a smile and pleasant demeanor. I ordered the basa grilled with no salt and light seasonings and fries. My companion ordered fried shrimp and fried okra. The fried shrimp was spectacular but the okra was from frozen. The restaurant was bright and spotless. The workers were constantly cleaning and clearing tables. This is a definite return.

    Small Dinner Size Fried Shrimps, Hushpuppies and tarter sauce! Yummy. Left overs no problem just close the box and keep moving!
    Charlotte P.

    Wow! I had forgotten how yummy this place is. Counter style ordering, self serve drinks and food delivered in a takeout box. My only take back since Covid is now they serve prepackaged tarter and cocktail sauce. Back in the day it was in a squeeze bottle made in house on the table. The hush puppies are delicious, fried shrimp prepared to perfection, coleslaw and cheese grits. Staffa is friendly and the place is sparkling clean!

    30 pcs pf shrimp
    Vanessa S.

    We loved Shrimp Shack Seafood Kitchen. First time trying this place and I was not disappointed. It really satisfied my seafoods craving. We ordered the Thursday special that included 30pcs shrimp with sides. The shrimp were really good and tasted fresh. We also ordered the grilled fish and it was delicious. I ordered kids meal for my son and he loved it. The service was fast and staff were friendly. Now this is one of my favorite seafood place in Jac and will definitely fo ga back.

    Out here on Beach Blvd. First time here. Heard great reviews. Not crowded at 3:30.

Parking will cost you (think it was $8 for 3 hours) but there's plenty of parking options. The restaurant sits on the corner and faces towards the beach (although you can't see the beach). It was pretty packed inside and a reservation is recommended. I liked the busy atmosphere. We started with a modelo and oysters. There were some beers on tap they ran out of for the evening. The oysters were good, but shall we than I expected. I opted for their snapper special: pan seared over jasmine rice with string green beans and a nice sauce underneath. It came out looking like a 5 star meal and tasted as such. One of the best red snapper entrees I've had!. It's hard not to give 5 stars when the fish is this amazing! Our waitress was also on point and there when we needed her. I hope to be back here again and would recommend!

We came again for Father's Day- reservations made in advance. Seated on time, seated on the top- by the window, quieter than downstairs and a wonderful view. Server was great. Food: Calamari- only ok, not a lot of flavor at all. Shrimp and grits- large serving and good. Bitter beans, always good- maybe didn't need so much (lesson learned( Crabcakes- this time lacked in comparison to others in terms of flavor and freshness. Really good French 75s. Still a good visit overall and would try again.

The restaurant itself is so unassuming from the outside and also really from the inside as well. It's very understated, but maintains a level of class. Nothing is overdone decor-wise and it's just... nice. And the food was wonderful. We started with deviled eggs for the table. Not one of my personal favorite foods, but even I liked it. The fried oyster on top is a great add. I had the lemon ricotta pancakes, which came with a side of bacon. The pancakes I imagined were going to be super rich, but they weren't! They were perfect fluffy, tasty pancakes with blueberry on them as a perfect topper. The bacon was just the right amount of crispy while still being just a little chewy. I also did have a nibble of the short rib hash and I am convinced I will get that for myself next time. So much flavor in just my one forkful. I was too stuffed full to eat any dessert but I will be dreaming of those beignets until next time (even tho technically an appetizer). We were served a little praline tho, which I thought was nice and of course I found a little space for! Our server was also just such a gem. The exact right amount of checking in and information on specials etc. they made an already great experience that much more wonderful. Also at a time when I feel like so many restaurants are just way overpriced, Marker32 is not. The food quality is well beyond the price they charge which was a great surprise. This spot is definitely on my will return list. Gotta try out the dinner menu.

    I was really looking forward to celebrating my birthday here, but unfortunately the experience was…read moredisappointing from the moment we arrived. We checked in about 15 minutes before our reservation, which was completely fine since we expected to wait at the bar until our table was ready. However, even 15 minutes after our reservation time had passed, no one had called us. When we went back to the hostess stand to ask, we were told the only table available was one that had been sitting empty the entire time--right behind the hostess stand next to the entrance. Since this was a birthday dinner, I asked if we could wait a little longer for a better table. Instead of trying to accommodate us, they simply pointed to another couple who looked like they were finishing dessert and implied we'd have to wait for that table. Not wanting to delay the evening any further, we reluctantly accepted the undesirable table. The food was okay, but the service from the two hostesses and the manager was what really left a bad impression. No one acknowledged that we had been overlooked, no one apologized, and there was absolutely no effort to make things right--especially disappointing considering it was a birthday reservation. There are plenty of great restaurants in Jacksonville with much better hospitality. Unfortunately, this wasn't one of them, and I wouldn't choose to celebrate a special occasion here again.

If you're visiting the area and love seafood, put this place on your list immediately! We were on the hunt for stone crab claws, a true Florida staple (we first tried it in Chicago and was told it was shipped from Florida!) The Fish Company delivered! Everything looked fresh from the moment we walked in, and you can tell seafood is what they do best. We enjoyed it so much that we ended up coming back again on our last day before heading home. The stone crab claws were absolutely delicious, along with the oysters and shrimp. Fresh, flavorful, and exactly what we were hoping for. My biggest recommendation is to call ahead if you're looking for stone crab claws, because they do sell out! One thing I really appreciated was being able to see all the fresh seafood on display. You can sit right at the bar area and watch them prep at the display case! For my military friends, it's also conveniently located right down the road from base, making it an easy stop when you're craving fresh seafood. Great food, fresh, friendly service, and a place we'll absolutely return to the next time we're in Florida. We only wish we had discovered it earlier in our trip!
