Bucket O' Shrimp

My favorite seafood restaurant when I am in the area. If I didn't leave 6 hours away I would be at this establishment at least 2 to 3 times a week. Awesome food and service.

Im very upset with the OWNER OF BUCKET O' SHRIMP. I called to let them know my food was raw. The owner said to me " what do you want me to do about it." Really nasty attitude. Food used to better.

Currently only open on Fridays and Saturdays. Call to place your order for curbside pickup. They were out of lobster today (Saturday), so we went with a shrimp poboy and a fried catfish sandwich, fries as the side and a can of soda for both. Portions were huge and justified the price ($24 for both meals). However, everything was incredibly greasy and made both of us sick within hours. I would not recommend.

One of the best food experiences of my life. We travel everywhere for good food and found this gem in an unexpected place. Get the Cajun butter and seafood boil and you will die a happy person...

This place is amazing! Their seafood is always fresh and has great flavor. The Cajun butter is the bomb! Totally worth the wait.

Fantastic hushpuppies with corn in the batter. Fried shrimp were also great. The shrimp and crab bucket comes with smokey sausage, potatoes and corn on the cob. All good, but it's the cajun butter that knocks it up to the next level. I cant muster adequate words for the deep fried lobster on a stick!

Due to COVID, they are only open on Fridays and Saturdays from 11-9. Pull up to the side door and they will come out to take your order. I highly recommend the shrimp bucket! We got the 20 piece, half fried and half grilled. The staff are wearing masks and gloves.

I've never had the seafood boils, I really don't like their sauce. But I love their Lobster roll, I bring my own Old Bay to season it and add their warm butter it so delicious. Right now they aren't serving Lobster rolls, they have limited menu due to COVID-19. There rolls are about $17-19 and are a decent size, not big but I've seen smaller. I also love their fried shrimp. So tasty! Not to mention this spot is black owned! On the weekends it always so packed usually 45 mins to a hour wait. So call ahead.

It was good, but I can't recommend to go because it was hard to eat at home without the shell crackers AND I waited over :30 after the time they told me to arrive until I got my food.

The fried lobster on a stick was excellent, though fell apart once you dipped it in butter. But VERY yummy.

The bucket of shrimp, lobster and crab was tasty. I'd skip the lobster as it was really quite small...my lobster on a stick was bigger. But it was a really big portion of everything else.

My brother recommended this place a while ago and I finally made it. We pulled up and I said, "Oh, it's connected to a gas station (BP). This is going to be good!"
It always takes me a while to decide from a new menu. I went with the shrimp tacos. If you get fish tacos, it's whitening. The cashier recommended shrimp so shrimp I ordered. It comes with your choice of side and a drink. Side options: crinkle cut fries, sweet potato fries (marshmallow dip for $1.09), hush puppies or slaw. I chose fries and added a side from the premium sides, Cajun corn on a stick.
My theory about

We love Bucket O' Shrimp! Service is always great. They get crowded so have patience while you wait or call ahead. So much better than the salty mess in a bag you get at the Juicy Crab.

Order ahead or plan to wait because it is made fresh and does take a little time. But it is worth the wait!! Everything we got was a absolutely delicious and the pricing is great for what you get!!

Good food. Fried shrimp was fabulous. The lobster roll was good but didn’t like the sweet potato fries very much. Shrimp po boy was very good, enough for 2 people to share. You won’t finish hungry- lots of food! Staff was nice.

Good bang for the buck. Crab and shrimp bucket was tasty. Not your usual dump some old Bay on it and call it done. Some one went to the trouble of making up their own spice blend and plenty of butter. Maybe a little salty, but tasty. If you are in the area worth a stop. I'd eat here again. Be prepared to wait.

AWESOME place to get 🦐 shrimp!! They are the prawns, not baby shrimp, and FRESH! I had a piece of catfish that was awesome, too....a BIG piece of catfish! Comes with french fries, and heavenly hush puppies! I had to order extra of those!😁 SO GOOD! Will order fron here again, and again!

Food- Very lackluster. The PoBoy(or PoGirl?) was very salty but didn't have any actual flavor. I added more of their b.o.s sauce which made it a little better. Sweet potato fries were weak, nothing to rave about. My husband had shrimp and bread only on his sandwich and he ended up hating it. His regular fries lacked seasoning.

Atmosphere- Pure chaos. Not enough seats. Line out the door, people standing everywhere waiting on their food...which really does take FOREVER. Also, the temperature is on HELL in there. We found a little corner to sit, which was pretty dirty from the people who sat

Wow .I havent given a bad review in awhile but today was a disaster.I wanted to try this place out and was let down .The service was extremely slow and I had to remind them for my side item and drink that I didnt get when I placed my order for the Lobster roll.After a 45 minute wait i finally received my order.The sandwich was well seasoned on a soft roll with lots of lobster.Im not sure though worth 23 bucks.Overrall id give them 2 and half stars.Advice to call in your order before hand.

Roaches.
So I'm sad. This is/was my spot. I bring my family here, I've been raving about this place for years.
Today...there was the biggest roach I have ever seen, just chilling walking around the sitting area.
And there was no signature sauce out anymore.... and fried pickles is off the menu.
Idk what's happening cause this place clearly is successful with people waiting outside.
Please please bucket o shrimp. Get it together, I love you

This restaurant is located right next to a BP gas station in Oakwood. Small restaurant with limited seating inside. They should look into having an outdoor eating area. Be prepared to wait for almost an hour to get your food if you dine in on the weekend.

My husband and I ordered crab & shrimp bucket and shrimp po' boy. Seasoning on the bucket is delicious! On the saltier side but that's normal for seafood broil I guess. Po' boy is good as well. Their orange cream sauce is good too. Wanted to try the lobster roll but they ran out unfortunately. I'll have to come back for

This is the true definition of a hidden gem. Don't let the location fool you - yes it is seafood, behind a gas station, and it's fabulous!

The fried shrimp po' boy was bigger than my head, and the sweet potato fries came with cinnamon sugar (yum!) I actually think the shrimp in the shrimp "bucket" are even better than the smaller ones in the po' boy. Go whole hog and get them fried, don't bother with grilled.

I can't really comment on anything that is not shrimp-based, but I've seen a few of the combo buckets and they look great. I want to try the

This is truly a hidden gem! I've seen it when I go to Cook Out and really thought it was a seafood market not a restaurant so I didn't go until I checked the reviews on yelp.

I searched for seafood and then I typed in lobster and a lobster came up here, in several dishes. They have a lobster roll listed so came up to see what all they had. I . Lobster rolls were just out of season so they did have lobster on a stick and Fried shrimp , hush puppies So I chose that for today to get started.

This is a small seafood restaurant that probably serves a lot of to go orders as there's

Fantastic food. Portion sizes are giant, so if you leave hungry, it is your own fault. We tried the fried shrimp and got a lobster tail too! The seating area is small, but that will be the only concern here. Great vibe, good music.

Food was great and so was the service! If you like seasoned seafood with lots of sauce and seasoning; this is the place for you! It was supperrr packed. Everyone in there seemed like regulars! We got our food in about 20 minutes.

I've driven by this place so many times, that I decided to give it a try after all of these times. I was very skeptical at first, as it is attached to a gas station, however when you go inside, you'd never know it was apart of the gas station.
It is a nice, quaint fish and shrimp place that looks family owned. The staff was very nice and accommodating. (and patient).

Having a diary allergy, they were able to accommodate my needs by grilling some shrimp in oil (instead of frying it in buttermilk), as well as adding some Cajun seasoning to it. The PoBoy sandwich was very hearty as
