Mr. Shrimp is no longer located at the mall. We walked all over the mall trying to find this place because the mall map still lists them in the food court, and both their website and Yelp show the mall address. Well, they were nowhere to be found. We wasted almost 30 minutes searching before asking a security guard, who informed us that Mr. Shrimp is no longer at the mall and will not be returning. He mentioned there had been some drama involving Mr. Shrimp, a customer, and her boyfriend, which reportedly escalated into a brawl with chairs being thrown. Eekkkk.. Overall, we were extremely disappointed that we didn't get to try their food and frustrated that we lost time looking for a place that is no longer at the mall, since we were trying to grab food in between scheduled tours read more

Date of visit: December 19, 2024 Let's be clear: This is a mall food court, so if you are expecting fine dining or a professional atmosphere, you will be mistaken. However, if you are looking for excellent food made by an energetic staff, you have come to the right place! Another win for Yelp, guiding me to this location that I never would have expected to find at an Outlet Mall, Mr Shrimp's Kitchen had food even better than Dragos Seafood within the Hilton for less cost. Between the three of us we had a Pretty (that's what they call it) Salmon Salad, Fried Shrimp with Fries, and Shrimp Alfredo that came with a side of garlic bread. Both the fried shrimp and the Alfredo were excellent! The garlic bread was clearly store-bought, but I love garlic bread so I won't knock them for this! Really the only reason I can't go five stars is that they didn't have water. Not through the fountain or even bottled water to purchase. They sent me over to Fat Tuesday, but they weren't even open, so if became a time-consuming game of Who Sells Water? that took me away from my food for far longer than it should have. read more

Mr Shrimp food is ALWAYS so good! I love his boil shrimp and his crawfish during crawfish season! It's ELITE. The service is 10/10. Mr Shrimp hospitality is true unmatched, he makes everyone feel like family. He is no longer in the Riverwalk but I can't wait for him to open his new location read more

Now this food was amazing. The staff was super kind, and watching the owner cook was like watching magic happen. Everything is made to order so get here early they tend to sell out of food before they close. I ate here two days in a row for lunch and no regrets were had! Highly recommend and there is plenty of seating in the food court. read more

Yo Mr. Shrimp, you did that! I went there with a co-worker and order food. We ordered the food online and went to pick it up. The food was FRESH and hot. I ordered a shrimp (12) plate with fries and a drink. My co-worker ordered a shrimp and fish (2 pieces) plate with fries. We also ordered another plate which was a shrimp poboy..The fried shrimp are also deveined. I know I say that like I'm shocked and I am because all places don't do that. The down side to ordering online is that you can't customize your poboy..The food was so hot even when we made it back to work..I'm definitely recommending Mr. Shrimp! A big plus is he was there with the employees helping them..no he wasn't training them he was being helpful. Yall go to the Riverwalk and check em out! Mr. Shrimp get a food truck lol read more

At the NDA convention next door in the NOLA Convention center and needed to get away a bit for lunch so walked over to the Riverwalk Mall food court. Super friendly folks and seem to enjoy what they are doing at Mr Shrimps. Ordered the "Shrimp Rich Boy" meal. It's served up super quick as soon as they can fry the shrimp. Super hot and fresh. Friendly folks and decent food. read more

Definitely do not skip out on eating at this establishment. My friend who is a local had recommended that we try this spot. On the first time we came to the mall we didn't see any signage for the restaurant so we left. I then got a message from my friend letting me know that they were actually in the food court but they did not have any signage on the main mall maps at this point. We circled back the next day and we were so happy that we got to enjoy the tasty food at Mr. shrimp's. We stopped in before heading on our steamboat cruise so we wanted to eat lunch. We shared the crawfish and shrimp pasta which had a side of catfish. It was definitely enough food for us to feel satiated however we could have ate more we just didn't want to be stuffed on the cruise. The pasta was tasty and the shrimp were huge. We really enjoyed the catfish which I hooked up with some of their hot sauce. Baby that hot sauce is fire and I wish I would have purchased a bottle ago I don't even know if that's an option but it was delicious. Hands down the next time we come back to Nola we're going to mister shrimps not once but at least twice. I really do wanna try their other all offerings and it was just nice chatting it up with the owners and the workers because everyone was so genuine. Wishing all the success to this new business in the mall and I'm telling you do not pass it up if you were reading this review..... you just need to go eat there!!!!!!!!!!! read more

The food is exceptional and the owner/chef is exceptional. Great service and great food. The owner/chef is a local Nawlins cat that knows what Nawlins culture and cuisine are all about. His food and conversation made my Father's Day the best. If you are ever in the Riverwalk stop in to get great New Orleans seafood and culture! I promise you won't be disappointed! read more

Service was not the best. I ordered the seafood boil and asked the worker if I could get a lemon she said they didn't have any when I clearly saw some in a bag. I was excited to try this spot based on reviews however when I tried the actual food it was a bit salty for me. So I had to go back again to ask for lemon. I politely asked if I could get a lemon and the other worker made a comment about me asking for the lemon, saying that I wasn't salty enough. I offered to even pay for it because I felt uncomfortable at this point. The original worker who said they had no lemon actually came out of the booth and just glared at me. Overall the food was okay, nothing out of this world. But the service wasn't good. I wouldn't go back again based on this experience. read more

5 Stars 10 out of 10 highly recommend! Mr. shrimp's kitchen is a new restaurant located in the river walk food court. They recently opened on November 17, 2023. This is a family ran business with a lot of heart, a lot of soul, and a lot of flavor. If personality could be sold, they could add it to the menu as well. Mr. Shrimp and Cousin Shrimp are seen customer facing in the front, taking orders and preparing meals. This dynamic duo trying wants you to experience next level dishes through their food. My husband ordered the shrimp Alfredo w/ fried catfish. HIS WORDS: "that was the creamiest alfredo I've ever had, without the appearance of looking too heavily sauced". The dish was low in sodium but didn't lack in flavor. The taste was like "someone's mama made it in the kitchen." He was very pleased, and the catfish was battered and seasoned perfectly. After going back and forth I settled on the Shrimp Yakamein, posted on their sign. Being a Baltimore native I'm use to a different style of yakamein, gravy base, fatter noodles. However after Mr. Shrimp gave me a small sample of the broth (alone), my decision was made!!! ILL TAKE 1 PLEASE! Before I knew it, I was being handed a 32oz container of Yakamein, piping hot. It contained fresh cut chives, 1 egg split in half, spaghetti style noodles, and a heaping portion of broth filled to the brim! I felt like Dora the Explorer eating this... "yum yum yum Delicioso"! I'm blessed to have my first New Orleans Yakamein experience at Mr. Shrimp! I'm excited to see where this journey takes them next. The ambiance is typical foodcourt vibes, but their restaurant was clean! The pots and pans seemed like well seasoned pots and pans straight from grandmas kitchen. These guys really take pride in what they are doing here in the Riverwalk! They are extremely humbled and blessed for the opportunity they've been given here at this location. Check out the pics, and videos, and RUN DONT walk to Mr. Shrimp. My ONLY recommendation is to offer a 16oz option. I'm not a huge portion person, and I hate to be wasteful because the portion is so large. I ended up sharing it with my husband. Lastly, the prices are affordable and on par with the portions you get! I wish Mr. Shrimp nothing but the best in the future of his business, and Happy early birthday to him as well.

The Chef was amazingly kind to us! It's obvious he loves what he does! You don't get to see that joy much anymore! He let us sample a turkey neck while we waited for our order. I had Shrimp Alfredo Pasta with fried fish and my husband had the Jambalaya Pasta with fried shrimp. The food was so good! We will definitely be returning and sharing our experience! read more

What They Miss In Taste, They Makeup In Service. Mr Shrimp's Kitchen is located inside of the Riverwalk Outlet (food court) Mall. There's a large community eating area if you choose to dine in. What They Miss In Taste, They Makeup In Service! The Staff is very friendly and entertaining. The Manager or Owner (not sure which) is so sweet. He has the best personality! I ordered the boil shrimp, sausage, corn and potatoes. Food Review: Shrimp - boiled waaaaaay too long. They were very mushy! However, the seasoning and flavor was great. Corn - dry, but well seasoned. The spices are really soaked in. Sausage - OMG! The salt taste is overpowering. However the pop and taste are good. Potatoes - best item in the boil. Perfect consistency, best flavor and very delicious. Overall the food was OK. I will return because they know how to treat their Customers. Also, the prices are very reasonable and the portions are plentiful. read more

Hollis and Chef are doing it all right! Food is excellent! Woman handing out the food may need to be a bit more conscientious of how she interacts with the customers and be sure to check the orders and provide the basics such as utensils and hot sauce. My side order of catfish would have been appreciated as well. Overall, a fantastic meal at a great price. Thank you! read more

At NOLA convention center and took an afternoon session break out the outlet food court next door. surrounded by deep fry choices, happy I found the sautéed salmon and shrimp salad at Mr Shrimps Kitchen-it's delicious and sautéed expertly while you watch. Paired with the water view deck it's much more of a treat than I expected at an outlet mall. Also love the reasonable price of $25. Coming from Seattle I know my seafood and this is wonderful- including perfectly seasoned salmon skin on the filet with just right crunch and amount of fat. Customer service from Kirtrina was excellent. 3 more days of conference and I will definitely be back. read more

Mr Shrimp catered my church crawfish boil. The crawfish was terrible! He served it directly out of the pot of water. Who does that! Ran out in an hour and pretending he didn't know it was all you can eat. Shame on you! I will never support after this. All hype no delivery. Tourist don't know any better so I guess keep catering to him! read more

I was really looking forward to trying this place and even walked all over the area searching for it. After going in circles and double-checking the address, I finally realized it's closed. Really frustrating and disappointing--especially after making the effort to get there. It would have been nice if the closure was more clearly posted somewhere. read more

Stumbled on Mr. Shrimp's perusing the mall, and couldn't be happier. The friendly staff tempted me over with a sampling of their seafood boil and reeled me in for a delicious plate of jambalaya pasta and catfish. The food was made on order, nothing premade and it was piping hot and delicious. I can taste the soul and the love in the spices and seasoning, not what I expected in a mall food court. Definitely check this place out if you're in the area, it's worth the stroll. read more
