A beautiful place on the water where you can watch the boats coming in and out of the marina while enjoying a few beers and cocktails. They have live music. The service was friendly and attentive. They’re part of the FMB dining passport program to boost business post-Ian. All-outdoor seating and the structure is put together using shipping containers. Someone clever noticed how well the containers did in the storm and used them to reopen the destroyed business. Pretty cool to see, and sad at the same time

Very unique and fun dining experience. The set up is two shipping containers and a food truck. The atmosphere is happy/beachy/quirky. They have a bar, a courtyard area to eat at picnic tables in the sand or you can eat inside one of the containers at a table. The food is spicy (which I love!). I had the chicken which was served in a pineapple and my husband had the shrimp bowl.
The portions are a little small for the price but it’s the beach so the price reflects the environment. I do wish their hours were later so I could get there after work, however I think once the Hurricane clean up is done they will expand. The bartender and waitress were very nice and attentive. Food was quick as well, I don’t even think we waited 10 min. Highly recommend! We will definitely go back!

We like everything about the Rude Shrimp Company, but mostly we liked them in the Loo — Waterloo, Nebraska. They are back next weekend, so after a long drought and a lot of Florida adversity (thanks Ian!), we get to enjoy being treated Rude-ly for the second time in five weeks. We cannot wait!

Went with a group to the rude shrimp co.

It was a hot sunny day. We sat outside. There are umbrellas on many of the tables to help but you will not get shade at all times.
There was a box That looks like an old train container with holes punched out the side for windows and another larger one on the other side too get in. That would be more shaded.

I came with friends and I tried most of the dishes (we shared) but not all.

The menu online on their website is different than the menu we accessed online from the table.

This is a great place to drink. All of us agreed that the vibe was a nice one too hang in and drink the evening away. The other comment was they do not water their drinks down. The drinks pack a punch.

Pricing was higher than I liked for some dishes. The flight of tacos was at 18.00 so, 6.00 each (that seems to be the pricing per taco as the rude shrimp tacos were 12.00 for 2)
I liked the one meaty one on the outside which I think was the kalbi short rib. The one in the middle didn’t appeal to me (I think it was the garlic shimchimi chicken). The rude shrimp taco was fine.
I just realized I never got the side of Hawaiian street corn looking back at my pictures so I do not know what that tastes like.

One of my favorite items was the blistered tomatoes, though I could take out leave the tomatoes. The shisito peppers were delicious.

The bay shrimp queso was a huge platter and was delicious too me, but not quite enough queso for all the chips.

The pineapple filled shimchimi chicken was better than my taco version of it. Though the flavors were good, it was a little too sweet with too much sauce. I would have liked more rice to balance the flavors. If you like a very sweet dish, this would be great.

If I went back I would order the burrito at 12.00. it generally was a solid item and the price point is right.

The loco Moco was another solid pick at 15.00.

The shrimp cocktail was also very good. They dusted it with a special seasoning so you don’t even need to dip it in the cocktail sauce.

I only had a bit of the stuffed shrimp as it was my friends dish but it didn’t call out to me.

I see on their menu that they have many new dishes that they haven’t started serving yet. I’m still looking for my five star must get item there so it might be in up and coming.

Service was very friendly. One of the manager/owners came by and checked up on the table which I always appreciate.
Food took a long time so be prepared to wait.

Parking is available in a large lot so there shouldn’t be a problem.

We stopped here randomly, and now it is bookmarked as a go-to place. The service was top notch. The food was amazing. Definitely order the blistered tomatoes. The only downside is the parking lot. Any chance that tall plants could separate the spaces?
Thanks for the fun afternoon. We will be back!

Ok – you really need to eat here- this place is special. This is among the best meals I’ve ever eaten. First of all – the name and signage is so memorable – we learned that “rude” means spicy in Hawaiian. We’re not lovers of super-spicy-hot food – so we were a little worried about ordering. The chef, his wife, and the server chatted with us and we’re so friendly. The chef told us about his dishes – and we gave 4 a try. The food was so fresh and handcrafted – Slam-dunk Delicious – my mouth is watering – just thinking about it! I’d say 3-4 on a scale of 10 for heat level. Just enough heat to add to and not overpower the flavor. We tried the boom-boom shrimp, rude tacos, pineapple shrimp, and the mandoo. Oh and a margarita. Since I’m a few hours away – I’m planning a few pilgrimages back this year. Seriously – if you’re anywhere near Ft. Myers – don’t miss out – stop by and try it. You’ll be glad you did.

We tried The RUDE Shrimp CO. for the first time tonight! It was insanely delicious, and in my mind, worth the drive to Waterloo (just past Sycamore Farms where they hold Junkstock). We ordered takeout:

1) Rude Shrimp Burrito – lime rice, spicy shrimp, shredded cheese, lettuce, pineapple salsa, marinated red onion, avocado sour cream, pork green chili, and queso wrapped up in a flour tortilla
2) Rude Shrimp Tacos – lime rice, spicy shrimp, shredded cheese, lettuce, pineapple salsa, marinated red onion, and avocado sour cream in doubled up corn tortillas
3) Garlic Shishimi Chicken – red bell peppers, shallots, pineapple, shishisto peppers, and lime rice, served in a halved pineapple

Our takeaways:
My favorite was the burrito, my S.O.’s favorite was the chicken. The tacos could have been improved if the shells hadn’t completely fallen apart before we ate them. Also, the two of us split all three menu items and were not full. It was super delicious, the shrimp had some awesome kick to it, and the queso in the burrito really topped off the variety of flavors. But my criticism would be that none of these items come with sides… And none of them are really big enough to be a meal on their own. They’d definitely be great snack foods to eat on their patio with a cold drink though!! For a full meal, the option of cole slaw or fries really would’ve been the perfect addition to this trio of awesome dishes.

Overall, go try it!!! DEFINITELY the shrimp burrito!!! Such awesome summer menu items! We’ll definitely come back to eat them on the patio with some drinks later this summer! ☀️

A friend and I visited on a Sunday not knowing what to expect but heard they had great Queso. Tim was our server but everyone in the restaurant came over to say “hi”. Possibly because I brought my dog which is a bonus in itself but they were all extremely friendly.

We started with the queso which had bits of pork and amazing flavor! We then had the blistered tomatoes and peppers with Ricotta, wow!!!! Such a unique dish! You don’t find many places serving shisito peppers. They had live music so we stayed awhile. The singer played nonstop! He played a great mix of country, 80s. 90s, r&b, disco, I mean, a little of everything. We were there most of the day and ended up have dinner as well. I had the chicken sischimi which was a spicy/sweet chicken, rice, red pepper and pineapple dish served in an actual half of a pineapple. She had the Rude tacos.

Do yourself a favor and go!!
I almost didn’t want to post because of wanting to be able to get in the place but that would be selfish.

Outdoor seating under umbrellas, indoor seating in a container which is the newest thing since Hurricane Ian.

if you make it be sure to ask for Kai or Tim!
They’re both amazing!

If you go anywhere on FMB, this is where you need to be! Absolute must!! My boyfriend and I went 2 days in a row, and if they were open Mondays, it would have been three!

Day 1 we had the queso, taco flight and a burger.. a burger so good it needs a fork to be consumed . Day 2 we got more adventurous and went for the shichimi chicken (omg it’s served in a freaking pineapple) and pirate Mikes dirty rice with blackened shrimp… then we also just had to try the special too because vacation, right, why not? The clam linguine was AMAZING. Don’t let pasta on the beach scare you because it’s phenomenal.

Tj and Lisa are so nice and genuinely care about the business they’re in, and it shows! My boyfriend and I made new friends and felt like regulars. We’ll be back every time we are in FM! So glad we found our new favorite beach spot! Matt & Avery

Wonderful island vibe right here in Nebraska! Fantastic staff, expertly crafted cocktails and Yummy food! Only reason this didn’t get 5 stars, is that the garlic shrimp had way too much oil/butter on the noodles. Hubby couldn’t stop raving about the Queso app and his Rude Burrito and kids loved their mac n cheese and quesadilla. Try the top shelf marg and the North Shore. You won’t be disappointed!
