Killer Shrimp

Went to Killer shrimp last night and unfortunately wasn’t very impressed. Ordered the salmon filet and it arrived it was tasteless. I couldn’t taste any seasoning and the sweet potato purée was absolutely disgusting. I asked the waitress to order something else since the salmon was definitely not good. Ordered the chicken tacos those arrived with a whole onion chopped on three little tacos. Took the onions off and just ate it since my group waited 30 minutes for me to get my replacement meal. Nobody in our group was
Impressed so we defiantly won’t be coming back.

***update***
Don’t understand some of these crazy negative reviews, they sound a bit far fetched.
I’ve gone here now 4 times since it’s opened.
I will agree that they seem to be slow in service some nights, but seems it’s because they are understaffed? Which … It’s a restaurant ppl, that tends to happen from time to time. At least they were understaffed when we went there for lunch once, but the food was good just took a while.
The other times I’ve had great, attentive, friendly service. I love sitting at the bar. I think you get served faster. The bartenders are all friendly and hard working as well as the rest of the staff.
The clam chowder second time having it And The bartender suggested I add Habanero sauce and I have to say it’s awesome wth the hot sauce so I reviewed it again lol.
I’ve had the killer shrimp and it was good but personally I lovedddd the fisherman’s stew. I think it’s superior to the killer shrimp dish but that’s just my personal preference. The broth is amazing, love the spiciness. Some reviewed that that they hated it but If you love spicy Cajun flavor you’ll dig it.
The oysters are great and fresh. I would recommend those on their happy our menu.

I had The Westside, one of their speciality drinks. Sarah was my bartender and she was awesome. The drink was good, refreshing and on their Happy Hour menu which is 3 – 6 & 10– midnight. Happy hour is worth it. Speciality drink of the day is only $ 5 bucks!
I’ll have to come back and try all the different things on the menu including the drinks! Hopefully this place sticks, I like having a seafood option! I always order the chowder at Yardhouse but I think I might start going here instead!

OMG good clam chowder, the food here is delicious. Best known for their Killer Shrimp, served with French bread to sop up all the juices. Definitely has a kick, even if you have a cold you would enjoy the taste it’s that spicy. Lots to choose from. We loved the Asian wings, moist and flavorful. Great environment for a girls or guys night out, sports fans etc. Happy hour has lots to choose from 7 days a week 3−6pm. Lobster Mac and cheese is sinful good.

Me and my best friend decided to do lunch here it was her choice
Mmmmm were both foodies and I will say I was disappointed
My salad was so light it looked sad NO dark greens on the whole plate at all
We got the seafood platter which was enough for us to share least the oysters were yummy that’s my favorite part
We both got there signature dish… I guess there known for it but it wasn’t worth it to us the shrimp tasted frozen hard to believe they were fresh
Least the drinks were good but we won’t be going back

***Dinner only****
Monday night, and I heard on the radio about this place that just opened up in town square and becoz I’m familiar with killer shrimp in CA I thought I would check this place out since I actually craved the broth from killer shrimp in CA. Anyways we get there, place is roomy and not busy, usually not a good sign but I mean the place is new so I said this is fine, I’m hungry and we get serviced rite away. Hostess and server were great, service was fast and pleasant but the food I wasn’t to impressed with. Just missed happy hour, but I decided to have a drink, they’re KS Mojito was really good. we had the calamari that was good with a surprisingly spicy ranch, and killer fries. those were good too, luv Cajun spices! I had the killer shrimp original *shelled*, I wasn’t impressed. The broth was to spicy for me but I dealt with it, it took away from enjoying the flavors in the broth, the shrimp was tough like it was overcooked and the «French» bread was eh, tasted store bought. ANYWAYS, overall experience was ok coz the servers were nice and I’m guessing it was the manager on shift but someone came over and greeted us and saw how we were doing. lucky for me, on Monday nights they have a special on they’re killer shrimp I guess they bring down the price to its «original» price whatever that means and so I guess for the price it was ok. becoz I try everything twice just to make sure I DONT like it then i’ll be stopping again to see how I feel about this place. maybe i’ll stop by the CA location again and compare.

Went with my friend to Town Squares’ theater and noticed this new place. Killer Shrimp sounds interesting:) after we watched a movie we decided to try this place. It was almost 8PM on a Sunday and there were only 3 – 4 customers, so service was fast :). I ordered Blackened Salmon and it was delicious! Waitress was very nice and the manager came up to chat with us a bit. Nice people, nice food. Hopefully it will get busier though.

Absolutely delicolious. wonderful staff. if you haven’t tried it you need to. great shrimp bowl and spicy sauce.

Not gonna lie each of my visits were because I was drawn in by the female staff working. And I guess I was little curious about the food too. Sure.
I’ve only been here during lunch. It’s a spacious nicely decorated place with a huge bar right dab in the middle. It looks fully loaded so if I find more info about their drink specials and what not you’ll be informed.
The food from what I’ve tried wasn’t that great. On the 1^st visit I had the Killer Shrimp Roll with some sweet potato fries for $ 12. The Killer Shrimp Roll was peppers, onions, aoili, and shrimp in a small French bread. I threw in a cup of clam chowder for $ 5. All together the $ 17 got me a real basic and not so filling meal than again I do usually eat a lot so maybe it might be filling for some. Honestly I wasnt wowed and I figured if I ordered something with their name in it it would be outstanding. It was far from that.
The 2^nd visit I think I had the fish and chips. Honestly I dont remember it to much other than it being not that great also. Maybe that’s why I haven’t been back since.
I might give them another shot, maybe for their happy hours or dinner cause the rest of the food pics look good. Or maybe I just need some drinks in me first before eating. The rest of the menu looks appealing.
I did hear kids eat free on Tuesday nights. So that’s cool for those looking to feed their kids.
Overall I just can’t give them anything higher than 2 star at least not right now. Maybe in the future.

We were in a group of 7 for Happy Hour on a Sunday. The place was basically empty. Service was not really that prompt. We ordered from the Happy Hour Menu as well as the regular menu. I shared Shrimp Tacos and Fried Calamari with a friend. The others ordered dishes such as Killer Shrimp, Steamed Mussels, Clam Chowder, Chicken Tenders, etc.
My friend and I concurred that the Calamari was too greasy, but that the Shrimp Tacos were good. None of the others raved about their orders, some said so-​so. Someone thought the menu was amazing. Too bad we can’t eat the menu.

Very disappointing experience at Killer Shrimp tonight. It literally took an HOUR AND A HALF from the time we sat down till the time we finally got and paid our check. The only things were got were chicken tacos, an order of sliders, and fries. And believe me, it burned to actually give them money.
As mentioned above, the service is painfully slow. Nice wait staff, and plenty of them, but there were only 5 tables including ours, and they spent most of the time happily chatting with each other, as opposed to actually waiting on their tables. It took so long to get our food, I was about to ask if it was even coming. I thought the waitress had forgotten.
3 Tiny Chicken Tacos: dry, tough, overcooked, and unseasoned chicken, on a soft shell taco. Topped with a bit of onion and cilantro. It came with a green taco sauce that sadly also lacked flavor. Edible, but pushing it. $ 7
Beef Sliders: I keep telling my boyfriend that the word slider in Vegas mostly translates to overpriced, crappy mini burgers. He never listens. These definitely fall in the overpriced, crappy mini burgers category. Unseasoned ground beef slapped onto a mini bun, some cheap, flavorless cheese on top. Again, edible, but very disappointing to my male. $ 7
Killer Spicy Fries or whatever: These were actually really good, and a huge portion too. Great seasoning, a little spice, nice and crispy. Unfortunately, the lazy waitstaff were too busy talking to each other to bring these out. They were cold when we finally got them. The fries were the best part about our meal, but they would have been awesome if they were actually hot, or even warm.
It took about 20 minutes to get our check, since our waitress was too busy chatting with a coworker. Again. That was just the icing on the crap cake.
If you must go here, you should probably get what they are best known for, and skip the failure of a happy hour. It’s held every day of the week, even on Saturday and Sunday, which would be great if the service and food didn’t suck.
The Killer Shrimp with bread dish looked REALLY good, but I doubt I’ll be back to try it, based on the awful service alone. The other restaurants were packed, while Killer Shrimp had only a few tables filled. Hopefully management catches the hint.
Update: I’m not sure what it was, but I’ve felt absolutely ill since I’ve eaten there. I only ate 3 chicken soft tacos and some fries, but I feel awful.

I used to live in Marina Del Rey, and at Marina Del Rey was one of my favorite restaurants called Killer Shrimp. The patio had a great view of the Marina. Anyways, now that I live in Vegas, I was super excited that this place opened up!
By no means should this be compared to Hot N Juicy or Boiling Crab. It’s a difference style of cooking.
It’s pretty much shrimp in a bowl of spicy goodness with a side of bread to dip. I went with a spicy level of medium, and it ended up being really spicy! Shell on shrimp is the best. The Killer Shrimp bowls are generous portions.
There’s been so many businesses at this specific location of Town Square. I really hope Killer Shrimp is here to stay.

this place confounded me a bit. We stopped in during a weeknight, but passed up several other venues which were packed or had a wait. This place was pretty empty. maybe 6 tables, with about 4 people at the bar. This place is a very large space, so it felt strange.
Similar to others, we experienced some weirdness with the wait staff. it took a bit for someone to come to the table, but once it was sorted out, she was very attentive and personable. Think it was more of a management thing than anything.
Food was solid, but not over the top. got the signature killer shrimp dish and it was very tasty. Bread was a bit dense for my liking, and didn’t really have flavor by itself. Not likely to be back in this area anytime soon, but if someone wanted to go, I would certainly join them. However, I don’t know how they will continue to stay open with such little traffic. Got to be some expensive real estate.

First of all, I am so happy there is finally a place like this that my husband can get his shrimp and seafood fix and I can have plenty of options other than chicken fingers (I’m looking at you Hot n Juicy.)
Everything we had was awesome. We definitely over ordered, but that’s something we tend to do when trying a new spot.
You could tell the food was all fresh. Clam chowder was on point and made me miss being back home in the Bay Area. The tuna poke was delicious! (It’s VERY hard to get me to like something like that!)
The service was prompt and friendly, even when it started to get busy. The manager even spoke to us twice! Something I find very rare these days is to have a higher-​up check on tables without making it seem like they’re obligated to do so. She was friendly and genuinely inquiring about our experience. Even the food runner was friendly and GENUINELY willing to get us what we needed!
We will definitely be returning here, especially since most of the things we loved are on happy hour!

Came here today and left before ever ordering.
The gentleman and I literally walked into an empty restaurant. So empty we wondered if they were open at all. Staff members stood around, others sat at the bar conversing. We were properly greeted at the door, assured they were in fact open and shown to our seat. The hostess was pleasant enough. She even informed us of the happy hour specials. Cool start.
But then…
Can I just tell you that NO ONE came to the table. No one. Did I mention the restaurant was empty? Because it was. There were literally about ten staff members standing around, and then, us, lone patrons in the building.
So as my gentleman got up to use the restroom, sure someone would be by before he came back. He suggested I order a couple things. But no one ever came. Lol. It was quite comical. He came back and made a big fuss (it was really just a small fuss) about us not even receiving water. To which we heard bickering about who was in charge of our table and even a question of where another server was (apparently on lunch) but yes finally a server came over. She said she would bring us waters.
Simple enough right ?!
But they never came either. We just ended up leaving and dining elsewhere. And I really wanted to try the killer shrimp too. Shame.

Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin art adorns the walls. I like the rocky vibe they’re channeling. A dozen oysters and a 312 beer on tap made for a happy evening. Finding Goose Island beers in Las Vegas is not easy. This Chicago native knows.
I took my lunch mate and he tried the calamari and a Shrimp Killa which is a girly piña colada… girlier than usual but alright in my book with a sprinkling of nutmeg on top for good measure. The calamari was lightly fried and enough to share.
The bartenders are cute, flirty and friendly. Try it out before they become slammed with tourists.

Different type of hot and Juicy I must say. The killer shrimp is a killer! The Lobster Mac and Cheese is a bowl size of food for $ 14 it’s good but just a bowl. The Seafood Paella is meaty. The concept of the French bread and killer shrimp (shrimps in a big bowl with hot sauce) and use the French bread as dipping. It’s all right. Mini crab cake is spicy. Good spicy food. The service top notch! Ebony was our server she was sweet. They weren’t busy on a Friday night so it was easy to get a table. Convenient location. Right by the movie theatre in town square. I don’t know if we want to come back and try other dishes or not though.
We shall see!!!

It’s literally been decades since I’ve been at the Killer Shrimp in Marina del Rey California. Located south of the Yard House and East of the Panda in restaurant is where you’ll find this is establishment.
They have a huge outdoor patio that wraps around the business since it’s a corner unit. Inside you’ll find a bar and dining room which is quite spacious. I started off with the spinach salad which contain the hard boiled eggs bacon and yummy. I followed with the fisherman’s seafood entrée which is a seafood stew that contained an assortment of seafood and was garnish with two pieces of toasted bread which was perfect for dipping into the sauce along with all the seafood. The portions are decent here and the prices are fair — everything was tasty and flavorful.
If you like spicier flare go for the original killer shrimp wh i has a Cajun kick and yummy too!

Restaurants have come and go in this particular location in Townsquare way too many times. I really hope Killer Shrimp is here to stay!
Items tried:
— Killer shrimp
— Clam chowder
— Calamari
Our server was super nice and helpful. She recommended the killer shrimp, their signature dish, since it was our first time there. When the dish came out, it wasn’t much to gawk over, but my tastebuds thought otherwise. The broth was so good! Loved the spice and the herbs. Dipping the bread in the broth was the best part. So addicting! Save time and avoid smelly fingers. Order your Killer Shrimp «shelled» for a peeled version.
During happy hour the clam chowder is $ 5. I can be a clam chowder snob, since I grew up in the bay area. There’s nothing better than clam chowder in SF or Monterey at the pier. Not really comparable, but Killer Shrimp makes a really good version! I love the chunkiness of the chowder with all the clams, potatoes, and veggies. Save some bread to dip in your chowder too!
The calamari ($ 6 HH) was easily forgettable. If in Townsquare, I prefer Brio or Fleming’s calamari.

Halloween dinner, say the advertisement on FB and decided to try it out. My bf ordered the Killer Shrimp with noodles. His only complaint was that he wished the killer shrimp sauce was a bit thicker since they give you bread to dip. The bread is not toasted so it kind of soaks up the sauce. To me it was to soggy I nice dipped. Either thicker sauce or toast bread. The flavor was OK. And had a good amnt of shrimp so that was a plus. Not mind blowing however my killer Mac n cheese was soo yummy! Like super yummy! It was not spicy at all and had pieces of shrimp throughout. I want some now. The calamari was excellent. Cooked perfectly! Also the fried shrimp good. You gotta try the Mac n cheese and calamari can’t go wrong.
Service was a but slow but uta opening weekend so it’s all good.

This place just opened at Town Square. We had come from an early Sunday movie and I was craving clam chowder, so my husband and I thought we’d give this place a try.
No one here, but was taken to the far wall of booths, we’d asked for one. Our server came up to get our drinks, intoduced herself and gave a very brief account of ‘their concept’. I heard shrimp, spicy and bread for dipping. We ordered an original killer shrimp bowl, about a dozen decent size shrimp, peel still on, swimming in a big bowl of tasty broth and spices but not much of a kick as far as spice goes.
The bread for dipping in the tangy broth was freash, soft, not toasted baget loaf sliced into small bits good for dipping, but would be better as toasted and warm, just my opinion.
We ordered my bowl of clam chowder and it came out late, we ordered both shrimp and the chowder at same time but they forgot it. It finally came out once she realized we still hadn’t gotten it. It was thick, a lot of clams, bits of carrot, potato, celery and was very good. I used some of the baget to dip it!
We also ordered the steam muscles, clear tomato broth, plenty of them and juicy good, the warm spinach salad, plenty big to share, bits of mushroom, egg, bacon and blue cheese crmble but a bit dry, could have used more of the vinaigrette dressing. And the paella, plenty of mixed seafood, steaming hot and seasoned well.
They seemed to be over staffed with assistants/​busers and not enough servers, ours was waiting tables all over the place and she didn’t make it by often enough to see how we were doing. She missed our dessert order because she took too long checking in on us!
We got plenty of tea refills, extra bread, they cleared away the dirty stuff, but waiting over 20 minutes just for her to come back to us after we’d finished our food meant she was too busy to care about our dinning experience.
Everyone was friendly but I guess things are still so new, they haven’t figured it all out.
