02-17-2024Been coming weekly since 9-2-23 for the jumbo shrimp. They have been excellent every week.However today when I arrived they were on sale for 16.99. I said to myself, same great jumbos for a buck off. Not so. They were horrible with some weird odd taste. Not sure if they were old or some seconds they got at discount. Really disappointing and really off putting. Now I'm not sure I should go back there again.Also tried the fish chips (whch were nuggets) for the first time. They had a thick hard corn meal coating definitely not Atlantic cod but probably Pacific. They were disgusting. The actual fish was very dry and tasteless and hard thick corn meal coating just doesn't go with cod. Cod should have a light flour batter.All and all this was truly horrible. My advice to them is to go back the fresh jumbo shrimp they use to use, I'll be happy to pay the extra money for quality. And if they want to sell cod, get fresh cod and batter it in a light beer batter.Sorry that I no longer can count on them for the consistent quality they had before.9-3-2023 This is update. For those of you who don't know, Shrimp Express, Bobs Shrimp in Hammond, and Simply Seafood in Merrillville up until recently we're owned by one person (Bob). Bob recently retired and sold all three. Each to 3 separate owners. Bobs used to be my favorite for 30 years. Now with a different owner I tried Jumbo Shrimp at Bobs twice and at Shrimp Express twice. Big difference. Shrimp Express is still serving true Huge Jumbo Shrimp. And on each occasion they were fried perfectly. Great non greasy crust.It's a different story at Bobs. Shrimp are not true jumbos but large shrimp, not nearly as big as the shrimp at Shrimp Express. Additionally on my second trip to Bobs the crust was mushy and oily. And they are more expensive than Shrimp Express.What a difference the owner makes. Congratulations to the new owner at Shrimp Empress, you've got great true jumbo shrimp. You have won my business. And to the new owner of Bobs., you can't fool the long term customers of Bobs. Please get your act together.8-31-2022 visit. Had the Jumbos, which are really large with tons of coating to make them look larger. Still way too much hard very dry coating. Also shrimp tough and stringy,. I'm done wasting $23 bucks on garbage. From now on Im driving to Bobs Shrimp in Hammond.

My mother and I decided to try this Shrimp Place. The food was fresh, hot, and delicious. There shrimp were a very good size for the price. We had fries with our order. They definitely give you enough. Will definitely be paying this Shrimp Place again. They did not disappoint us at all.
