    Shrimp Tacos

    I wanted to confirm that I wasn't overlooking anything, as I've visited the drive-thru several times and my tacos have never looked like this. When I walked into CocoShrimp to place my order, I felt a bit scrutinized, and the atmosphere seemed off. I ordered two tacos without lettuce, expecting two shrimp per taco, but there was barely any rice and only half an avocado, despite having paid for a whole one. I believe this will be my last visit.

    My husband and I have been going to Coco shrimp when they were just a food truck outside of an ACE Hardware store! We were thrilled when we heard that they were moving to a brick and mortar store in Watauga, which was right down the road from us. When they first opened, we were excited to see that this location would also have a drive through option as well. The option to order online and pick up has been great, especially during peak hours! The inside has lots of seating as well as a few patio tables outside too. Pro-tip... if you're ordering a plate, get the salad on the side. You'll thank me later ;) Both dressings that are options for the salad are great; my favorite is the creamy ginger one though! My favorite plate to order is the coco shrimp plate. The coconut shrimp as delicious! Perfect blend of sweet, balanced by the dipping sauce, over the butter garlic rice! Amazing. We also love their tacos for this same reason. If you are able to order both, do it! You won't regret it.

    Ordered the $15.95 five-flavor shrimp sampler that's not on the menu. It comes with two coconut w/ sweet chili sauce, butter garlic, lemon herb, spicy, and sweet and spicy shrimp. All meals include rice, salad with poppyseed vinaigrette, ginger dressing, cucumbers, and craisins. On my next visit, I'll order butter garlic, coconut, and sweet and spicy. These three were my favorites. You can request additional sauces for $0.50. I purchased cilantro lime. It went great with the salad. I recommend switching out the ginger dressing for cilantro lime. Coco shrimp has a tropical beach vibe. I loved the warm atmosphere and friendly service.

    This place was so yummy. I drive past it all the time and finally my husband said let's go for lunch. It was Easter Monday it was only us in there around 2pm. The guy who served us was efficient and nice, the food came out quickly. As newbies we didn't really know what to order and it wasn't until I had sat and seen the menu on the table that I saw they had tacos as it was hard to see on the hanging sign above the checkout. So maybe he could have said we also do tacos and sides etc. However, we both ordered the shrimp sampler as it was our first time to try more flavors. I got the coconut, butter garlic and lemon herb. All 3 were delicious! The butter garlic was my top but all were great flavors. Then I got the side salad with poppy seed dressing and that dressing was so refreshing, light, and tasty. Lastly the rice was super fluffy and buttery tasted so good. The had fountain drinks and water. The also had a sink to wash hands which was a nice touch. I loved the beach, surfer style decor also. I will definitely be ordering from here again :)

    The food is absolutely amazing! I got the sampler shrimp dish. I love the sauce and dressings. The meal feels a lot healthier than buying fast food at the same price. I have no critiques whatsoever. I could eat here everyday! I love this place. We need one in Dallas soon!

    Came here for a quick lunch with my mom. We tried the sampler which we chose the original coco shrimp, garlic shrimp, and spicy. The flavors of all three were incredible with the buttery rice and sauces on the side. This was a great fresh and tasty meal!

    Nice seating area.

    Great place but the music is too loud. Can't hear when they call out your order. Can't hear someone talking that is right next to you. Super irritating.

    Menu is limited. I'm okay with that. Cilantro rice is a must. Of course, coconut shrimp is the best.

    Ask the Community - Coco Shrimp - Watauga

    Is Coco Shrimp on fleek?

    Yes. Most definitely

    Is the Spicy Shrimp the only gluten free option? The menu on their website is a little confusing because it says gluten free for the sampler but the only flavor that says gluten free is the Spicy.

    I was told that Lemon Herb, Spicy, and Butter Garlic are the 3 GF dishes.

    Can you order extra shrimp?

    Of course! Each extra shrimp is just $1

    Are you able to order just a side of rice?

    Yes

    We saw an advertisement about this place and decided to give it a shot. We only live a couple miles…read moreaway. The inside is very clean and fairly simply decorated but I like that. Especially how clean everything looked. We opted for spring rolls to start. They came out very hot and I enjoyed them. Then my wife had a poke bowl and i ordered sesame chicken. I was very surprised how good my sesame chicken was. There was a nice crispy texture and tasted fresh. She loved the poke bowl as well. We will have to plan another trip.

    so freaking random.... this place serves legit sichuan cuisine…read more with a name like "hawaii grill and poke" you would assume this place is a normal poke bowl place just like any others. But apparently, my wife mentions that this place hired the chef from a sichuan place in plano. We ended up getting: the duck blood, pig feet with jalapeño, hot and sour soup and braised eggplant w/ garlic sauce. Out of the entrees, i loved the eggplant with garlic sauce. It goes so well with rice. whatever you do, definitely get it. The duck blood "soup" also came with other items like spam, tripe and intestines and veggies. It was numbing and spicy, but definitely not too crazy. Also the hot and sour soup was amazing. The Ambiance is really laid back. There are a few seats inside, and i feel like its more like a take to go type of place. But in the front, you'll see the poke section. but in the back you can definitely hear the wok going off when cooking chinese food. I also got a passion fruit green tea drink and it was perfectly made. If you're craving authentic chinese food, come here. Its not cheap, but 10x better than Panda Express.
