    Hands down the best shrimp I have eaten in a long time. The shrimp & rice and salad just blend nicely and tastes so very good. CoCo Shrimp is now on my favorite list to go eat at. Customer service was awesome!

    Came back again during a business trip. Still amazing. I love this place. If I lived here I'd eat here regularly. Ordered the same combo plate and it was awesome! Shrimp even seemed bigger than before. Also ordered grilled pineapple which was a nice addition. If you want a total Hawaiian dining experience, come here. Great food and great vibes!

    I imagine an addiction when I think about the compulsive desire to keep doing or trying something. That’s how I’d describe this food experience. I know, a bit over-dramatic, but I was going to say, “Each bite was a taste explosion.” The service was great. Everyone was friendly and inviting. I tried the SAMPLER and wow. IF you love shrimp, you can’t say that any longer unto you’ve tried this, so there is no doubt in your love. The rice has amazing flavor, the salad, I would recommend the poppy seed dressing. Ask for an extra container, trust me.

    First time and definitely not the last. Great flavors, had the sampler with coconut, sweet and spicy, and spicy. Also came with a side of rice and salad. Good portion size for lunch or dinner. Get there early. Arrived at 11:15, by the time I left at 12:00 the line was out the door…on a weekday!

    Finally had a chance to try this place out as I’ve seen the soon-to-be-open Heritage Trace location. It was great! Comfortable setup with music. Order was hot and fresh and completed in just a few minutes. I got the sampler so I could try three different types of which I got the original coco, lemon herb, and spicy. They were cooked perfectly (so frequently shrimp are over cooked). Very tasty and enjoyed the sauces. Surprisingly, the rice was very good (if you like rice, there’s plenty in the box). The salad was good because the dressing was very tasty! My only selfish hope was that there would be some grilled pineapple somewhere, but that’s just nit picking ha ha. Cant wait for the new location to open because the tacos look awesome (only at the brick and mortar locations).

    Good location. It took a while to get our food, but it never disappoints! My favorite is the “sampler” plate with garlic butter, coco shrimp, & lemon herb. I also really like their fresh salad. Both dressings are good! But the poppyseed one is my personal favorite. The rice is pretty tasty too & comes with a lot. Best to get here before lunch/dinner rushes to avoid the crowds.

    Food selection is simple, and very good! Customer service is awesome! We have been here twice and will continue to come back! My daughter and I split the Coco Shrimp sampler and we get full! I recommend adding grilled pineapple to your salad and the poppyseed dressing! The shrimp are big and the flavor is so good! The atmosphere is very chill. TV is surfers and beautiful beaches. You literally feel like you are at a beach restaurant on vacation while you’re dining it! There is plenty of seating options, including patio seating. Food doesn’t take long to get after you order! Go check it out!

    This place is amazing! Was told about it from a friend but haven't had a chance to come here till today. Order to Cocoa platter for myself and the garlic shrimp for my wife. We shared them both, amazing! Just when I thought I could not get any better I decided to try the tacos. OMG!!!!! There are no words in the English language to describe them. Will definitely be back.

    Let me start off by saying the Shrimp was exceptional. However, while I found the shrimp to be very good (especially the coconut shrimp), each platter comes only with rice and a basic green salad. The rice is plentiful, moist and flavored with garlic butter, but the salad is a basic green salad. I didn't try the "extras" such as grilled pineapple and macadamia nuts. But, the choice of sides and options is limited. And while the servings of rice and salad are enough to share, there are no options to simply order additional shrimp, without ordering an entire platter. Price was fair and reasonable... considering that the menu revolves around shrimp. And the shrimp were moderate in size (probably 31/35 count). Once again, all of the flavors of shrimp were excellent (I tried the Sampler), but a little more choice in sides would be nice. Offering a "shrimp only" option and additional sides might also expand Coco Shrimp's appeal to a broader base.

    I get the classic coco shrimp, with poppyseed ving. Friendliest staff every visit, and service is quick. Food always comes out hot! Shrimp tacos are solid

    Pure bliss!!!!! At this point in my life it’s more of an addiction! Sweet and spicy for life. If you haven’t tried Coco Shrimp yet, are you even living?

    I sweet and spicy shrimp is very good. I wish there were more shrimp for the price. Offering rice alternatives like brown rice or cauliflower rice would be perfect! Aside from that, I would come back every now and then.

    THIS PLACE IS GREAT!! All plates come with rice & salad - love this balance 💕 the rice is addictingly good (butter garlic in there), and the salad is fresh (comes w craisins & cucumbers) Ranking the shrimps i tried by favorite - 1. Lemon herb 2. Spicy and Butter Garlic tie 3. Sweet & spicy If you get the sampler, you get to try 3 shrimp flavors and get an extra shrimp (7 instead of 6) PRO TIP: get both the vinaigrette and ginger dressings!! 😋

    I cant say that food surpassed my expectations but it did meet them. I had the Sampler whoch allows you to pick 3 shrimp flavors. Obviously they know what they are doing with the coconut shrimp, but the butter garlic was pretty salty in my opinion. The lemon herb was my favorite. It's more expensive than I'd like to pay on a regular basis for 7 pieces of shrimp & salad, but it was good. The poppyseed salad dressing was probably my favorite thing. I also tried my sister's shrimp tacos and I think I preferred them. Service was great and food was out in under 5 minutes. Not bad for a 7:30pm dinner! Lastly, bring a jacket!

    If you're in to seafood and more specifically shrimp, then you have found your place. My wife and I both really enjoyed our first experience at Coco Shrimp. The food is so good and the staff is really attentive. We'll definitely be back soon.

    The food was good, they have a food truck out front and I wonder if they actually started as a food truck business. I had the Coco Shrimp "plate" with rice and a salad, the Poppyseed vinaigrette dressing is good but strong so only a little is needed. The Salad has dried cranberries so it's very flavorful. the Coco Shrimp is what most will expect, and It's a good version, I didn't use the dipping sauce because I didn't feel it was needed. As with most Shrimp dishes I would have like 1 or 2 more shrimp, but some of the shrimp on my plate were pretty large, so I left happy. Overall their menu is pretty simple, and the atmosphere is fun and appropriate. I will bring friends next time I visit

    The food was great. Service was like a fast food restaurant, it takes a little longer time for your food to be ready. They do bring it out to you & were friendly. Atmosphere was ok. There was a $1 up charge for the avocado & coconut flakes, was skimpy on the avocado & generous on the flakes. Both were good. Loved the sink to wash your hands. Great idea other restaurants should try! Side note related to parking. Avoid parking near the grass. Sprinkler came on & the water sprayer hit all the way to my windshield. I even got wet getting back in my car.

    Great food. If you're a bigger hungrier person opt for the extra protein. I got a sampler with double the shrimp and it was all really good. I will definitely come back some time and would definitely recommend. The sweet and spicy I think was my favorite of the sampler. Customer service was really good and very nice staff. The surroundings were very Cali vibe and chill.

    1st time here..only Shrimp plates good though...not enough shrimp only 6 pieces..maybe order extra pieces Lots of rice it was good too with small salad .I liked it will come back

  • 5/5 Corey C. 1 year ago on Google
    This place lives up to the hype..... If this is fast food I don't wanna know what they could do with 20mins of sit down. Thoroughly enjoyed my sampler, the shrimp was all cooked perfectly, seasoned well and the rice and salad balance it all out. To be honest, I liked the idea of the full salad more after I took my first bite with the wonderful house made vinaigrette. It was delicious, an idea for improvement, I would like to see chopped dates in the salad, instead of the dried cranberries loaded with sugar. The dates would take it to the throne. 💪💪💪
