The sring is seasoned well and the tails are removed before frying ai every bite is perfect. However the wait is long but that's to be expected for fresh food

If you love shrimp. You gotta try this place. It's fast and delicious. No it's not like going to a restaurant that serves seafood, but for fast food it is the bomb with a capital B. It's my go to fast food shrimp stop. Trust me on this one. Try the spicy shrimp sauce.

The Shrimp were very Good!! However, the Oysters that I ordered were extremely small and over cooked, Smokey like almost burnt as well as my French Fries! I would not recommend the Oysters or their French Fries! Steer Clear!! 😒

We placed order at window. Once at the window the man opened window and said I will take your payment in a minute. Clear as crystal on the window you see the Visa and MasterCard logo. He then tell us when he opens the window finally to take our payment that it is cash only on Sundays. Never heard of anything like that, but why would you not tell the customer this at the menu before giving them their order total? Ijs. 09/08/19 6:30pm.

This was a restuarant that serves more than just shrimp. My thoughts buckled when I seen how many fishes that Shrimp Express has to serve. I ordered a pound of the Lake Perch fish and wasn't disappointed. I will be going there again get another pound if there delicious fish.

The shrimps breading was very dry. They do not have cocktail sauce. They had sauce that tasted like ketchup, and barbecue sauce. It was not good.

So I want to give it 5 stars but they upset me. Don't get me wrong their food is delicious. Make sure you let them know fried soft so it's not too hard. Due to the coronavirus, everyone has to use the drive thru. I think they should only take call in orders. I called my order in and had to wait in the line for over 30 mins for my food. They also take orders for people that just pull up. They need a better set up. Shouldn't have to wait that long. Thought everyone got the memo to call in. They shouldve allowed the last minute folk to order and drive around to the end of the line. So the people that had sense to call their orders in don't have to wait.

Haven’t been here since a little boy, last thing I could remember some great fresh shrimp, to my surprise I got stale cold shrimp and cheese sticks that wasn’t even all the way cooked. They forgot my sauce they made me pay extra for and didn’t give me any marinara sauce for my cheese sticks. Also they forgot my coleslaw. And the fact I brought so many people boosting this place up just to get embarrassed.

I used to be an advocate for this place. Loved it for years! But never again do I have to be a customer of theirs again. It was just a few years ago that their quality and deliciousness went down and my visits were less frequent. I went today because I wanted some good shrimp. They were the first in my mind but it soon turned to disappointment when I found that they DONT CLEAN THEIR SHRIMP! It was sooo much I found while I was eating that turned me off and I regretted going there. If you don’t care about that stuff then by all means... eat up!
