Coco Shrimp in Plano was a great find. I went with the Sampler Plate, which was definitely the way to go for a first visit because you get to try three different shrimp flavors rather than having to settle on just one. The shrimp were flavorful, well prepared, and paired really well with the buttery rice and salad. I also liked the simplicity of the concept. They are not trying to have an enormous menu; they do shrimp, offer several different flavors, and do it well. The casual Hawaiian shrimp-truck feel makes it a fun and easy place to grab a meal. Good food, good portions, and a nice change from the usual fast-casual options. I will definitely be back. read more

Overall: 3.8/5 [dine in] The service was friendly, the place was clean and nicely themed, and they bring the food right to your table. There are also paper towel rolls at each table which comes in handy. Sampler Plate ($12.95) + Toasted Coco Flakes ($1) + Macadamia Nuts ($1): You get to choose 3 shrimp flavors and we went with Sweet and Spicy, Butter Garlic, and Lemon Herb. It came with 7 shrimps which felt a bit light for the huge portion of buttered rice underneath. The Sweet and Spicy and Butter Garlic were both good but the Lemon Herb was just alright with a pretty mild flavor. The macadamia nuts were cut into bite sizes and were an interesting addition to the rice but I don't think they added much so I wouldn't get them again. The toasted coco flakes on the other hand were delicious and added so much flavor. The plate also comes with a side salad and your choice of dressing so we went with ginger and I actually loved the salad more than the rice. The buttered rice had a lot of spices and herbs but the flavors were still surprisingly subtle. We also added a single Coco Shrimp Taco ($3.50) which is basically a coconut shrimp taco and it was actually more flavorful and tastier than the plate. I wished we had gotten another one. read more

There are no words to describe just how transcendent the Coconut Shrimp Tacos are. I had mine without lettuce. So there was a little rice I think, coconut shrimp, fresh cilantro, a cilantro lime dressing and a lime wedge. I think that was everything on it. I got the discounted taco when I ordered the sampler. I definitely wanted to add a review and say what is in the taco as none of the other reviews I saw said what the contents are. I'm picky. I needed to know. This taco, though. It is definitely the best seafood taco I have ever had. And I think the best taco of any kind. It's that sublime. I will definitely be getting the double tacos on a regular basis. I ordered the sampler with three sweet & spicy shrimp and four butter garlic. The sweet & Spicy are phenomenal as well. The spice level is like a medium salsa. Maybe slightly more. It wasn't too much for me. They were far better than the butter garlic, which were also good. Updating this to add the photos of a Coco Shrimp Taco from a second visit, two days after the first visit. I didn't think to take pictures from the first visit before I took a euphoric dive into the taco. My friend would attest to how many times, while eating the taco, I made an utterance to indicate I was in heaven. Staff and service are excellent. Super cute place that makes me feel like I am beach-adjacent. It certainly takes you there. read more

Return or not return? Probably return, but not a passionate I have to eat that again. Chain restaurant in Texas. Pros: - high flavor food - easy ordering - strong value for the $ - easy ordering - fast - gut bomb special as huge portions esp rice Cons: - too too salty - not a place you have lunch at and go back to work. Everyone will know what you ate. Garlic tastes good, but you will smell like it. - Tacos need corn tortilla option. Flour becomes gooey and soggy. Biggest issue is just too too salty. read more

First time was the one near Keller and that was about 6 years ago. Recall it was good and buttery rice, but just never been back as I don't frequent that part of town as much now that my kids don't play soccer. Last weekend while shopping in Frisco, we ended up here afterwards. As before, the food is spot on. Surprisingly, it's not so much the shrimp but more the butter flavored rice that's light and fluffy with a hint of sweetness. Either way, it was good as it does reminded me of the various shrimp trucks in Hawaii, which we'll be going next week. But for Texas, this is a solid 4 stars. Only wish they have more of the sauced type of garlic shrimps that Hawaii north shore is known for. read more

We haven't been here in a long time so we finally came for lunch a few days ago. I ordered their garlic butter platter and my husband got their spicy shrimp platter. Each plate comes with rice, salad and 6 pieces of shrimp. Whatever they put on their rice is sooo good and addicting. They have 3 different flavors of salad dressing: poppyseed, ginger (my favorite), and cilantro lime (new). Their shrimp is pretty big and seasoned really well. Sometimes it's a bit salty, but once you mix it really well with the rice, it tastes delicious! Love the interior! Very colorful and lots of plants! They have plenty of seating and plenty of parking as well. Price is not bad for the amount of food you get. Definitely recommend! read more

Coco Shrimp - bathroom - Seafood Near Me - Plano, Texas

Everybody complains that dining out is so expensive today (myself included). While I can't say that Coco Shrimp is bucking that trend, what I can say is that, at least if you're going to spend the money, you'll likely get a great, satisfying meal in a fun atmosphere. That's a win in my book. My wife has dined at other Coco Shrimp locations, but it was our first time at this location. The place is nicely decorated, looking like a kitchy joint you'd find in the Caribbean, and the staff was very pleasant. It's quick casual, order at the counter from the easy to read and not too fussy menu, and the staff will bring your food to your table. I chose the sampler plate, which nets seven very generously sized shrimp atop a bed of buttery rice and a small salad. The greens were fresh, the rice was toasty and buttery as promised, and those shrimp: Yum! I selected spicy (definitely on the warm side), butter garlic (wonderful butter garlic sauce with herbs) and the namesake Coco shrimp (crispy fried with coconut flakes and sweet chili sauce), and all were fantastic. It was a lot of food, so we even took leftovers home to have for dinner. This place was definitely worth the price, and we'd happily go again. read more

We initially wanted to try Hopdaddy in the same area, but we decided not to. Instead, we went to Coco Shrimp. It's all shrimp with rice and salad(poppyseed or ginger dressing). We weren't sure, so we tried garlic butter and lemon herb and I added Avocado for $1 and 2 drinks. The salad came with Craisins which I don't like, so I put all that in PB's salad. To me, Craisins on the salad is as bad as raisins on potato salad. You order and pay and they bring your food out. You get your own drinks. I personally like establishments where you get seated and the server takes your order. The food was ok. I think it's Hawaiian concept, but if it was, they should offer macaroni salad/potato salad. The person at the cash register was very friendly and helpful, bc the menu was kind of confusing. We asked the fellow diners about what's good to eat here and they recommended garlic butter and lemon herb and that's what we got. PB was very hungry, so I gave him 5 of my shrimp(I ate one and ate the salad, Ginger dressing was good. He wanted to go next door to Lazy Dog to eat afterwards, but he got full from eating 11 shrimp, so he didn't have to. This place is small, but plenty of booths and tables with Island decors. I brought back the rice for my big baby and he loved it. read more

I don't even know where to start. These have got to be some of the best shrimp I've ever had! The perfect texture, flavor, breading, everything!!! I got the bowl with the lemon pepper, butter herb, and sweet and spicy shrimp over rice that was made with coconut oil!!!! Soooo good! And for my salad dressing I got something with poppy, I don't remember the full name. After ordering my husband went up to order a drink and the lady told him that she forgot to tell him that he could add on a shrimp taco for just $3.50 when you order the meal with 7 shrimp so she honored it and he got a shrimp taco also. THE BEST!!! Shrimp tacos are usually nothing to shake a stick at but these were amazing. I'll be back in Dallas at the end of the month and I can't wait to go back! And I love all the surf boards and plants!! read more

So disappointed. We've been customers here for a couple of years. We normally order delivery but tonight my husband went to order pick up at 8:40. When he arrived, a guy ran to the door to lock it and said they were closed. Wow, just, wow. If you want to close at 8:30, 8:40, 8:50, post that. Don't post it at 9:00 then turn customers away. read more

Truly excellent experience. Great good. Great prices. Highly recommended. If it's your first time, the Sampler Plate is the way to go.

Great food at a great price. I don't even like coconut shrimp, but there are a variety of flavors to choose from including shrimp not fried with coconut, I especially recommend the spicy sauce. The side salad is simple and refreshing. The rice is very well seasoned, dripping with butter and leftover sauce. The portions are quite large, I usually go home with another meal. If you get a drink cup, it's reusable and you only have to pay $1 for a refill whenever you come back. The atmosphere is outstanding for such a casual and affordable place, well themed with beach vibes. I cannot recommend this place enough. read more

Coco Shrimp - Coco tacos on the left and the Coco sampler on the right, butter garlic, lemon herb and sweet & spicy. - Seafood Near Me - Plano, Texas

My husband and I have been meaning to try Coco Shrimp for months now and we finally got the opportunity since we weee in the area. We were here on a Saturday afternoon around (4 PM) and this place was fairly busy, considering the time was nestled in between lunch and dinner hours. Service: The service counter was friendly, and quick! Ambiance: The restaurant is a casual counter order establishment. Once you order, you have a seat and someone will bring your order to you. There were plenty of large tables for people who want to bring a group of 4 or larger. This is also perfect for solo dining or groups of 2! Food: I was so thrilled with the food! Everything was so good and flavorful! I tried the sampler to give me an opportunity to try all the popular flavors! I would recommend ordering the coco shrimp if you want a classic deep fried shrimp, or if you want something lighter yet hearty, the lemon herb is great! The rice that comes with the dish soaked up all the juicy sauce from the shrimps. The salad was crisp and very refreshing. Everything tasted very fresh! read more

The vibe here is super relaxed, with indoor and outdoor options. It's the perfect place to chill and enjoy a great meal. Seriously, if you love shrimp, you gotta come here.

Coco Shrimp - Sampler plate - Coco Shrimp Butter Garlic (GF) Lemon Herb (GF) Sampler - Seafood Near Me - Plano, Texas

Second visit and still 5 stars! It's the customer service here that excites me about being a regular patron going forward. On this visit, our order was taken by Peyton. Mom and I ordered unsweetened tea, a side of Rice, a side of Grilled Pineapple, and the Butter Garlic Shrimp (which comes with Salad, your choice of Dressing; we chose Ginger, and Rice topped with Butter Garlic Sauce). Also visible on the floor were two friendly gentlemen - Robbie; an area manager and Rodney; food runner. Rodney recommended the Double Coco Tacos (which looked incredible and which I will order on my next visit). The ambiance is laid back and fun with an Aloha Spirit that you can truly feel as you enter the establishment. We will be returning here often. Ideal portions at a reasonable price. Love the vibe and energy here. See you on our next visit! read more

In town for business and Coco Shrkmp was nearby. I walked in on a Monday night and was treated with a friendly hello. When the cashier found out it was my first time, he did a good job suggesting options and ultimately I decided on the sampler with coconut shrimp and garlic butter shrimp-ONG so good! I got mine to go and ate in the hotel room but I'm sure it would be even better in the restaurant. Go in and try them! read more

Coco Shrimp - Seafood Near Me - Plano, Texas

Everyone in my group ordered different sampler plates, so I basically got to try all of their shrimp flavors. My favorites were the Sweet & Spicy and Spicy Shrimp, both of which I had ordered. (Side note: they're not that spicy, so don't be concerned by their names.) The Lemon Herb was delicious as well, and that was the third flavor I ordered in my sampler plate. I also tried the creamy ginger dressing and poppy seed vinaigrette, drizzling a bit of both on top of the rice and salad in my plate. There's a lot of surf decor around the restaurant. The environment is chill, and the workers are friendly. You order at the front counter, then they will bring out your food to your table once it's ready. I wasn't a big fan of their drinks; they were too diluted for me. Also, their plate sizes are pretty big but I wish there was a greater ratio of salad to rice base since practically 3/4th of my plate was rice and it felt heavy. read more

Coco Shrimp - Sampler: Lemon Herb (GF), Sweet and Spicy, Spicy (GF) - Seafood Near Me - Plano, Texas

Excellent! I recently heard about this place from a friend and after looking at the menu online and seeing their 5* status decided to try it out today with a coworker. Being the 22nd of the month they were offering a "2 for $22" deal which was two plates (not the sampler) and two drinks. We got one with coco and one with spicy. We also each got a taco as recommended by the cashier. We went with all rice instead of the rice + salad so I can't speak to the salad/dressings. Apparently these tacos have won awards - and that's no surprise. Great combination of flavors with the shrimp, sauce, dressing and the crispy lettuce with the soft tortilla just ties it all together. The white rice with garlic butter sauce was the perfect base for the shrimp. Both the coco and spicy were delicious, though the spicy was pretty mild for my taste. Staff was super friendly and attentive. It's clear that they genuinely care about making sure that customers are happy with their food. There's a good amount of indoor seating as well as a few larger tables on the patio. The decor leans into the Hawaiian theme. I was too hungry to think about taking pictures on this trip but I'll definitely be back. My only suggestion to them would be to add an ultra spicy option to the menu. read more

Very good, as usual. Reasonable price. Tasty food. Clean. Quick. What's not to like? We have enjoyed every Coco Shrimp location in the area!

Nice change. Cute little beach place with BYOB sign. I was picking up to go, but may eat in or the patio in the future. First time like all I did the sampler extra salad. Sweet and Spicy was my favorite!! I'm ready to go back and I'm still full. I ordered extra butter and put it in the rice! Delicious. I was in and out but the staff was prompt and friendly. read more

Stopped by this evening to eat solo after some pickleball with the boys, from a recommendation from one of them. He said it was him and his wife's go-to. Holy cow. My wife doesn't like shrimp so I would never bring her here on a date night but had to try it since was on my way home. Simple order at the counter sit down restaurant. Another review I read said no ambience but there was a good beach ambience with hawaiin music playing. It felt like a legitimate fish shack. I was recommended to get a sampler plate being my first time, so I did...butter garlic, coco shrimp, and sweet & spicy. I asked for no salad so they gave me double rice. Flavors were amazing. Love the variety. Shrimp was delicious. Rice was off the charts and soaked with butter and garlic. The guy that took my order was really nice and helpful also. And my order came out quick. I texted my buddy and said that if my arteries seized up, this would have been a great las supper. Luckily my son and youngest daughter love shrimp so they give me a reason to come back to not enjoy this place alone. Can't wait to beunf then to let them try this place. read more

Can't beat the meal for the price! I got 6 big plump and juicy coconut shrimp smothered in both sweet and spicy sauce, tons of rice with butter and a salad with poppyseed vinaigrette all for $12.25.

Many of my friends have been to this place and they all have nice things to say about the food there. Now I'm here myself to try it out, just to see if my friends are "honest":) Shrimp is my favorite seafood. So it wasn't hard to make a trip there. The menu is as simple as it could be. Basically you just pick any one of the available shrimp flavors: lemon herb, garlic, coconut, and sweet and spicy. As most customers like me are indecisive, they kindly offer the sampler option for you to pick three flavors. We decided to go for these three: garlic, spicy, and coconut. The coconut shrimp were coated with toasty coconut flakes, crisply fried to golden dark brown. The sweet and spicy shrimp had a subtle taste of sweetness and spiciness. Not too spicy at all. I have a high spicy tolerance. It is probably acceptable for most people. But I liked the garlic shrimp best. They were garlicky and buttery. All the shrimp were so fresh and decent in size. You wouldn't go wrong with any flavors. Almost forgot about the supporting stars: salad and rice that came with the order. The salad was fine. The rice was moist and buttery, much better than steamed white rice. And the rice portion was unusually generous! The food came in a nice paper box. It would look much more beautiful if it was on a plate. I'm just being picky. Never mind! The lady that took my order was so nice. Unexpectedly she herself brought the food to the table. Don't think she would be able to do that during busy hours. Anyway I appreciate the friendly and attentive service. The outdoor-like decor is noticeably Hawaiian, accentuated by the serf boarding hanging from the ceiling and on the walls. So the verdict is I'll continue to trust my friends. read more

Ambiance-3.5 Stars Simply cute and fun decor. It was clean and atmosphere felt comfortable. Service-3 Stars They forgot to give me my ginger dressing. Cashier was pleasant and other staff. Food 3 Stars AVERAGE Shrimp Sampler Spicy Shrimp-over seasoned and salty Lemon Herb- yummy and perfect Butter Garlic -slightly salty Out of all 3 Lemon Herb were my favorite! Salad was yummy! The poppyseed dressing was magical. The ginger dressing was pretty good too. The cranberries were the perfect touch. Rice-they give you PLENTY, but it was to much would opt for more salad. Out of the entire meal. The salad was the best part. I like that you can sample the different flavors of shrimp that's a bonus. I am going to try another location and order different flavors. I am willing and open to giving this place another chance. I'm trying to understand the HYPE. It might have been an off day. I was not impressed. Overall it was an experience. I like trying new places at least once. Hoping the next visit will be better. read more

Food, service, vibes = nailed it. My coworker/friend bragged about this shrimp restaurant she was having the other night and then she realized this location just opened near our office - two days later guess where we're eating lunch? I absolutely loved the food and experience. Talk about an easy, quick lunch with quality, filling food! Who knew 7 shrimp could be so filling - well it could be the delicious rice and salad served with your meal, but whatever it is, this is a solid go-to for any type of dining experience (work lunch, takeout, date night...). The sampler lets you choose 3 sauces which is especially great for indecisive first timers like me. They have Coke Zero on tap and fresh iced teas (yay!). The sauces are flavorful, the breading/coating is perfectly crisp, sturdy, and not overbearing or too thick. The hospitality was the highlight, which considering how good the food is, it was a close tie for "best part of the experience." The manager was greeting customers with true authenticity and warmth. The cashiers were so welcoming and upbeat / happy to be there and service was an 11 out of 10. I'm already thinking about whether I should head there for dinner today too... read more

Coco Shrimp - Seafood Near Me - Plano, Texas

I had no idea this location opened nearby and thought I was seeing things as mini me drove by. Mini me almost talked me out of trying with the prices and lackluster menu. I'm so glad I didn't listen...the food was so good! One reviewer mentioned the manager being over the top. I was happy to see the manager, Robbie, so excited about the product. His upbeat spirit had me tickled. Robbie gave me a rundown of the menu, pointed out his favorite flavor and warned the coco tacos would have me returning the next day. A gentleman in line behind me confessed he was just there the day before. I opted for the sampler which included seven shrimp. I chose coco, butter garlic and sweet & spicy shrimp. The shrimp were perfectly cooked and included rice and salad. I'm not big on salad but the craisins, poppyseed and ginger dressings made me reconsider my choices in life. The portion was huge enough for me to make three meals. You definitely get your money's worth. I will be back to try the coco tacos. Highly recommend! read more

Coco Shrimp - Sampler platter - Seafood Near Me - Plano, Texas

Pretty solid experience. Coco Shrimp specializes in Hawaiian Shrimp plate lunches. We got the Coco Shrimp and the butter garlic. Coco shrimp were breaded and fried well. The salad dressing was very refreshing and I believe they make it in house. The rice was pretty soggy and mushy though. They smother it in butter, which is nice at first but can be overpowering as you eat more. The butter garlic could use more of a garlic flavor as well. Overall, pretty good vibe but the manager was a bit over the top in asking everyone single person if the food was delicious and to tell others about it. If the food is delicious, it should speak for itself. read more
