Everyone at the location was very welcoming as well. Thank you
Jambalaya.
This location surprised me. Not only the food tastes excellent, service is also on the top 10%. Great dining atmosphere, fun merchants and decors from the movie Forrest Gump.
The shrimpers net catch is so delicious .
Before ordering, we politely asked if it was possible to change seats. The server barely listened before cutting us off and refusing outright, with a noticeably impatient and cold tone. This was not simply about whether a seat change was possible, but about the complete lack of basic respect during the interaction. Since we were on vacation, we chose not to argue further.
The actual dining experience was disappointing. It was raining that day, and every time the door opened, cold wind blew directly onto our table. At the same time, guests who arrived after us were served their food earlier, which was difficult to understand.
Several service details further worsened the experience. While we were waiting and briefly looking at our phones, the server placed the appetizer directly onto the small table between us without saying a word — not even an “excuse me” — despite our hands clearly resting on the table. Throughout the entire meal, this server made almost no effort to check on us, only asking once in passing while attending to other guests. In the end, all food clearing and billing were handled by other staff members.
To be fair, the food itself was decent in both taste and portion size, and the interior design was interesting. Unfortunately, the server’s cold and impatient attitude.
Overall, this dining experience had a negative impact on our vacation. If basic service attitude and courtesy are not addressed, even good food and a nice atmosphere are not enough to make this place worth returning to or recommending.
I didn’t want to ruin the experience for my son so I just went along with it. Lucky the waiter was amazing and gave a great experience.
Schmitty was incredibly knowledgeable and attentive, recommending perfect dishes based on our dietary needs and preferences. He struck the perfect balance — always available when we needed him, but never intrusive.
He has such a kind and caring way about him, making each guest feel special and valued. Schmitty is a true credit to the establishment, and we can’t wait to return again thanks to his outstanding service!

The menu is what you’d expect from a classic American restaurant, offering a mix of steaks, burgers, seafood, and more. Since shrimp is the star of the restaurant’s name, we focused on trying some shrimp-centered dishes. The lobster rolls stood out—they were flavorful, generously packed with lobster, and definitely left us satisfied. The fries that came with it were hot and crispy, just the way they should be.
However, we found that some of the other shrimp dishes were quite salty, to the point where it was hard to finish them. Personally, I would have preferred a simpler presentation—like plain boiled shrimp with sauce on the side—rather than everything being heavily seasoned or mixed together. We still left full, though probably in part thanks to drinking lots of water alongside the meal.
Overall, Bubba Gump offers a good, casual dining experience with a fantastic location and a wide variety of food options. While the flavors weren’t perfectly balanced for us, especially with the saltiness, it could just come down to what you order. I’d recommend choosing a mix of dishes, so you can balance things out if one ends up being too heavy-handed. It’s worth a visit if you’re looking for an easy, classic meal during your CityWalk adventure!
