I enjoyed my food here very much! The shrimp was seasoned very well. I got the plain fried shrimp and the buffalo. I preferred the plain l fried shrimp. The fries were a tad bit too greasy. The kool aid was good also. The customer service was wonderful. All smiles and eager to help. The restaurant was clean and light and airy. I hope they continue to thrive. I'll be visiting the next time I'm craving shrimp! read more

Shrimp Doc - Fried shrimp and fries - Seafood Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Service - Service-Service was exceptional! This place is located in a strip mall, once you walk in you are greeted warmly and they explain their specials and concept. You then order they will tell you their personal favorites and what people order the most. We had the 6 shrimp lunch basket (lemon pepper and bull ride flavors) and the blackening shrimp bake potato. Both are parties in your mouth. The shrimp are nice and big and cooked perfectly. The potato is filled with cheese and shrimp - then they give you extra sauce just in case you need more. Back to the service part - they text you when the food is ready. Then they show you the food before the package it up right in front of you. So you know exactly what you are going home with. I believe they have a few tables inside the location. I enjoyed this place. We will be back. read more

Shrimp Doc - Maple Shrimp and Wafle - Seafood Near Me - Arlington, Texas

I've found another favorite place. Blackened shrimp potato was amazing. I was skeptical about ordering it that i ordered a backup (zesty ranch shrimp) but quickly realized it's ALL good. I will be back. read more

Ordered Shrimp and Waffles, 2 Blackened shrimp and loaded baked potato on line and even though it took me 20minutes to get there, my order still wasn't ready. I did not go into the restaurant. They did however bring it curbside and opened each container so I could check my order before leaving. There is a special sauce that goes on the Shrimp and Waffles that was missing, so the gentleman ran back in and got it for me. Portion size for my shrimp and waffles was great. My husband, however thought the loaded potato did not have enough filling. Stars are basically for the food quality. read more

This place is great!!!! The food is amazing love how big the shrimp are and how they have some flavors I never thought I'd try but ended up mind blown! It is a bit pricey but you pay for what you get. All Food was fresh the wait wasn't that bad as well and it's small place but definitely a nice vide to it! read more

I trained next to this location and recognized the flow of traffic. They are also a highlight at the Texas State Fair. My first try I forgot to share pics because I dived right into it. This is my second time around and the food is still delicious. The butter sauce is tasteful and sweet The service is quick and well worth the wait. Small space for a single or party of two. The price is $$ appropriate for quality and portion. read more

Great concept. It makes since to focus on one thing and do it well. I tried 3 flavors shrimp (sour cream &onion, ranch, hot lemon pepper) the most prevalent flavor was the hot lemon pepper and the ranch. I also tried the waffle. The waffle was crisp, flavorful, and held up well through the journey home. The cinnamon butter was also a plus and perfect pairing for the waffle. The basket came with fries. The fries were ok and could have had more of a crisp. Overall, I plan to check them out again. The greatest highlight is the fact that they clean their shrimp well. One thing I can't stand is dirty shrimp from an establishment. read more

Shrimp Doc - The best food with the best customer service. . I love this family owned and operated business. - Seafood Near Me - Arlington, Texas

I got their shrimp and waffle with the maple and cinnamon sauce on the side. It came with a drink too. The shrimp was hot and juicy while the waffle is chewy and so good! Totally recommend trying this. I also had their Texan sized shrimps which came with a drink, fries, 2 flavors and a dip. I got their Cajun Buffalo which taste just like Buffalo. Their sour cream sauce reminds me of Parmesan. For everything, it was around $30. One thing to keep in mind is that their wait time is long so best to call ahead and order. There isn't a lot of table either since it's a small place. read more

Now, this is how shrimp should be cooked! Crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. No dry shrimp here. You get to choose the flavor of your choice, much like choosing the flavors of hot wings. I've been to the place several times, and the food is consistently great. This is not a place to sit down and eat you can, but it's really small. However, the food itself takes the place of whatever seating space it doesn't have. You might want to call your order in to avoid the wait time. read more

Shrimp Doc - Seafood Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Hidden gem. I was looking for something else but I'm so glad I found it. Fresh large white gulf shrimp had amazing flavor and the fries had good seasoning! I tried the Buffalo shrimp and the lemon pepper and it was good! This is a shrimp only joint but it's all they need. Customer service was really humble and great! I'm going back! read more

I tried Shrimp Doc for the first time yesterday and it was really good. Customer Service was fantastic - very friendly staff, quick turnaround on my order. I ordered the maple shrimp and waffle and 6 solo shrimp (tossed in lemon pepper and spicy lemon pepper). The waffle and maple sauce was exceptional. For the maple shrimp, I got the sauce on the side which I think was a good call as it may have overwhelmed the shrimp. But this dish was unique and in a good way. The lemon pepper and spicy lemon pepper shrimp was battered perfectly and had a really good and consistent texture. My only criticisms are the the lemon pepper/spicy lemon pepper could've had a little more punch to it, though it was decent, and they forgot to put my spicy ranch in the bag, but the food was fine without it. I will definitely being going back! read more

Very disappointing experience. My husband and I tried this place today, and the food was terrible. The "blackened shrimp" was more like étouffée shrimp, and my garlic Parmesan shrimp was dry, greasy, and flavorless instead of having a creamy sauce. The shrimp on the baked potato were tiny, and they try to upsell larger shrimp to make up for it. When I called to complain, the owner was extremely rude and told me to drive back from Arlington to Dallas for a refund, an unsanitary and unreasonable request. A store credit would've made more sense. Save yourself the trouble, this food is greasy, overcooked, and tasteless. read more

I found this place from a local influencer that I follow on Instagram. I'm a fan of fried shrimp and was drawn in by the sure size of these shrimp. The Texas size shrimp is literally the size of my palm. I've been to the Shrimp Doc twice now. It's tucked away in a strip mall surrounded by other business. The space is pretty small but they have a few tables or countertops where you can dine-in. Ordering is simple - walk up to the counter, make your selection, and choose your flavors. First visit, I ordered the 8pc Texas size shrimp basket and my two flavors were Sour Cream & Onion and Lemon Pepper. It came with seasoned fries and a drink (I got the strawberry lemonade). They prepare your food so be prepared for a little wait. You actually get a text when it's ready. The shrimp was so juicy and just good. Sour Cream & Onion flavor is definitely my fave. Some of their flavors are like a dry rub while some are more wet (think like chicken wing flavors). I don't do spicy but hubby tried the spicy flavors and said it was good but messy. We've also tried them plain with no flavor and dipped in their garlic butter sauce. If you're looking for some good fried shrimp, then this is your place. Just be sure to save your shrimp cravings until the weekends as they're only open Thursday-Saturday. read more

Everything was so good. Asked the person in front of us for a quick review. She said she is a repeat customer--get the potato and the shrimp and waffle. Got the potato, maple cinnamon shrimp, lemon pepper and garlic Parmesan shrimpbto share w/ hubby. 2 Arnold Palmers. Baby!!! All good. Really hard to find a restaurant online that meets or exceeds your expectations. Going back for the other flavors. read more

If I could give this place 10 stars I would. Don't waste your money anywhere else because this is hands down the best shrimp I've had... ever. Good size shrimp, crispy & well seasoned. I haven't tried all their flavors but the lemon pepper is 10/10 as well as the Texas hot bull ride. If you're in the area you gotta stop by! read more

Excellent portion size! I got the grilled shrimp with rice and veggies and am 99% satisfied - my only complaint is i should've gotten extra butter sauce on the side. Wish there were more grilled options, too. Overall, i recommend for shrimp lovers. read more

Shrimp Doc - Seafood Near Me - Arlington, Texas

I've never visited a place like this before. All dedicated to Shrimp! The Shrimp Gods must've came up from the Sea to bless little ol' me! This little gem was delicious. Great service and easy to order. I called in an order for pick up. I ordered the 8 piece Shrimp basket where you get to choose 2 flavors. I chose the Lemon Pepper and Cajun Buffalo. The basket also came with fries, half piece of toast and drink. Might I add, that little piece of toast was everything I needed too. Toasty and buttery! The ambiance is welcoming yet small. Very minimal seating. I was shown my food before leaving the establishment and asked if I was ok with my order. I will be back and I do recommend. Lots of flavor and the Texas size Shrimp are huge. It's a bit pricey as I paid $22 for my Shrimp Basket so please expect to spend a bit more than average. read more

Shrimp Doc - 8pc Shrimp Basket 1/2 lemon pepper and 1/2 Cajun buffalo - Seafood Near Me - Arlington, Texas

THE BEST FRIED SHRIMP IN TEXAS! I've never had fried shrimp this good. I first tried this company at the state fair of Texas and was so happy when I heard they were opening their own location. I've tried all of their flavors but my favorite is sour cream and onion and the cool ranch. Every shrimp is the same big size and every time it hits the same. Always on point. Always good I'm here at least twice a month since it's a little far from me but always worth the drive. 10/10 would recommend the staff there is always in good spirits and nice and kind. The location and inside are clean and well kept. read more

I've now been to this place twice, the first time I went was when they first opened. The shrimp was greasy and not good and the wait was very long. I went back yesterday and it was redemption. I ordered the lemon pepper and hot lemon pepper, both were good but the lemon pepper was my favorite. I throughly enjoyed the food. The wait however is still a little long, when you place an online order it tells you that the wait will be 10 minutes on your ticket, but I ended up waiting about 35, which was frustrating bc my expectation was 10. I think to resolve this they should update the time stamps on their receipts bc a 35 minute wait was still worth it for the food. read more

Where else can you find good quality fried shrimp seasoned with sour cream and onion or lemon pepper or zesty cool ranch?? This is the only place that does something like this! It's the best fried shrimp place I've been to! We ordered just a regular 12 pc shrimp basket, not even TX sized and it was massive! It's a local black owned mom and pop joint that has experience at the TX State Fair dishing out their seafood. The service is like no other place I've stepped foot in. We talked to the mom that owns the place and she just treats everyone with such respect like you're one of her own kids. She came from the back of the kitchen to talk to every single party to see how everyone's doing, how we heard of her place, etc. The ambiance felt cozy because of her presence, you just felt like she cooked you a home cooked meal. I definitely would come back and I'm trying the shrimp and waffles the next time I stop by! read more

I had a coworker recommend this place because she said that it is the Wingstop of shrimp and on point. I am happy to say that she was spot on. First of all, I didn't even get the jumbo shrimp, and they were huge. I had the Cajun Buffalo and Hot Lemon Pepper, and they were delicious and full of the flavors promised. The shrimp were well sauced and tossed, and the fries were crispy and seasoned. My mom had the grilled shrimp, rice, and sautéed veggies. She kept bragging on how tasty the rice was and how fresh the veggies were as well as the taste of the shrimp. The service was very good and the gentleman working the back thanked us for visiting and ensured that we had everything ordered before leaving out the door. The only downside is that it is a small establishment so it gets cramped when there's a lot of people ordering and waiting, and I wish they were open more days a week, not just Thursday-Sunday. read more

Shrimp Doc - That cashier should work on her people skills - Seafood Near Me - Arlington, Texas

I had the most amazing food and experience! Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures to share because the food was so delicious that it never made it out of the parking lot! We had the 6-piece Texas-size shrimp with lemon pepper sauce and spicy ranch, and the 8-piece Texas-size original fried shrimp with fries - both were mouth-watering! As soon as we entered the place, we were warmly welcomed by the staff who were more than happy to walk us through their extensive menu, which was super helpful since they had so many tempting options. Though the seating area was a bit tight, it didn't matter because the food was so incredible and totally worth it. I can't wait to go back and try the shrimp-stuffed baked potato which sounds divine! You must check this place out too, but make sure to visit during their business hours which are currently Wednesday through Saturday. Trust me, this spot is a must-visit! read more

Hidden gem!!! This is by far one of the best shrimp shops I have been too! I'm a bit of a shrimp snob. My hubby had the Texas sized shrimp and I had grilled shrimp. The entire staff was friendly and the owners are so nice. The customers were helpful in making suggestions on what we should get on our first of many visits! read more
