LA Foodie Guide: Must-Try Instagrammable Eats at Arcadia Mall!
Charles StiggerCharles Stigger
First let me say that I TRULY appreciate an owner that takes pride in monitoring reviews about their product and service. On that note, 5 stars. The service was great. Our meal was prepared quickly. Our server was friendly and responsive to our needs. 5 stars. As for the food however, it was VERY mediocre. I ordered blackened catfish, red beans & rice, fries and clam chowder. The chowder was not exactly to my liking. Very bland and few clams. I'd recommend mirroring a recipe from Legal Seafood of Boston, the home of phenomenal Boston clam chowder. If you even get close... fans will beat down your door to get a bowl. My catfish was a bit undercooked and the seasoning taste was unremarkable. Sent it back and it turned out ok. Once again, success leaves clues. TRY any recipe for blackened fish from New Orleans will improve the quality here. The same applies to the red beans & rice. The fries... very standard fare, unremarkable & unseasoned. I tasted my lady's meal. Her shrimp was fairly bland... Nothing special. The prices were fairly good. But as it stands, this is not the place I will make sure I hit when I occasionally drive from Vegas to L.A. Having food experiences from around the world and around the country, this place has nice character and great opportunities for improvement. Feel free to contact me if you want to discuss this offline.

238 lbs (original weight 296+) Shrimp House Arcadia Hooray for the bang-for-buck winner! The Shrimp House is an unassuming and friendly little joint where you’ll see lots of dining locals and cops, always good indicators. TVs are on with no volume and the experience is warm and no-frills. Shrimp House does most everything well but specializes in fried shrimp, so get those. The jumbos are the largest shrimp I’ve ever seen and I’m told they are imported fresh and daily from Mexico. Breading is tasty and not overwrought and (yay!) not too salty. Create a dip using the shrimp sauce and hot mustard that’s at every table and settle in for gustatory happiness. For those of us losing weight, go for the jumbo fried shrimp (with the highest meat-to-fried ratio) which are huge - 4 make a great meal. Have a few fries, iced tea, and the cole slaw and you’re only having 800 calories or so and going home satisfied. I’d love to have a shrimp-off between this place and my favorite restaurant, Pappas Seafood in Houston, TX, or the best overall shrimp restaurant, JL Trent’s in Jacksonville, FL. There’d be no loser in any case. So if you find yourself in the northern Los Angeles area, make this one a destination.

Geez what a disappointment! The shrimp salad was iceberg lettuce and very bland tiny shrimp! They looked like canned shrimp. The clam chowder is definitely canned or bagged and frozen. It was very jiggly thick and an entire bowl had 5 tiny whole clams. The rice pilaf was good and so was their grilled cod fish with tartar sauce! The grilled shrimp was overcooked, but their scallops were pretty savory and well cooked. The fried calamari was okay, too crunchy and can barely taste the calamari. The large shrimp cocktail (Mexican style) had a good Mexican style sauce to it but make sure you eat the shrimp with the sauce. Otherwise, you will just be eating an extremely bland shrimp. For the price, none of it is worth it again. If you know good food, this is not it.

Dear owner, Congratulations on having customers for so many years. You are correct, my opinion about your mediocre food is subjective, as well as my original opinion. AS A MATTER OF FACT, I can say I know what good seafood is. I was raised on all kind of seafood. I was taught to season it and cook it perfectly in many different ways (including Mexican style shrimp cocktails and ceviche). I have been to many seafood restaurants. The way seafood is seasoned, cooked/baked/grilled, and served on a plate sets good seafood restaurants apart from the not so good ones . 🤷🏻‍♀️

The fact that I could have sworn the bay Shrimp was canned says something. Also, I know what true shrimp tastes like, and it does not taste like it’s been in the fridge for a couple of days. Unfortunately, I got food poisoning from your food. Regardless, I’m sure many people enjoy your food, and I hope many people continue to enjoy your food. I’ll tell you one thing though, your food service is fast! I am by no means trying to hurt your business, as I have got no reason to, but like you said, my opinion is my own. You keep doing you, as you have done for decades. For those of you reading this, don’t be afraid to try new things and you be...

I have been going to the Shrimp House since 1974, although back then it was named the Shrimp Ahoy as most loyal customers would know. Since then it has been my favorite shrimp and seafood restaurant, so it was very concerning to hear that there would be a change of ownership and possibly a new restaurant but the new owners with the new name have only complemented the ol' "shrimp ahoy". I am glad to say the delicious menu remains the same, fresh' & tasty! The excellent! seafood quality has been maintained or should I say catapulted beyond expectations. Hats off the chefs! The new management is very genuine welcoming and everyone of the nicie waitresses are very kind, always smiling, happy to attend to our service, always checking on us, making sure we have everything we need for our pleasant dining experience.

Thank you very much Shrimp House!!! Your entire menu is so delicious!!! Even still your crispy Jumbo Shrimp & fries with a salad & thousands island dressing is our favorite'" plate. Your service is the best! Please tell all your beautiful servers thank you for us. We look forward to visiting very, very soon'" Like how about yesterday'" 👍😉
