Some of the best fried seafood and great service. From the time you order all the way until pickup. I always get the fish and chips with regular shrimp. Not overly battered , not greasy fresh and delicious! A must try for sure

Many years ago we used to frequent Goose Island whenever we were in the city. When I heard that shrimp Island’s owner used to be the cook there, I knew I had to check this place out and it did not disappoint. One bite of the shrimp brought back so many fond memories. We had the Jumbo shrimp, Catfish nuggets and mushrooms. Everything was absolutely delicious. We have to drive from Oak Brook to get to this place, but it is well worth the ride and we’ll definitely be back!

Stopped by Shrimp Island to grab dinner and it didn’t disappoint. Service was quick and professional. Restaurant was very clean. The food was hot (even after a ride home), and taste was very good. Mild sauce was delicious.
However, the reason I came to write this review….look how big their (jumbo) shrimp are!!!! Wowzer.

Shrimp Island will be my new go-to place for lunch, whenever I need something quick, fresh, and delicious.
The location itself is a small, nicely kept, only carry-out restaurant. Hand sanitizer inside, and small bench to sit if you want to wait for food. I’d recommend to call in advance and then pick up. Though waiting time for me has been around 5 min so they’re really quick.
I’ve tried the regular shrimp, fish chips, scallops, potato salad, and fries. They all tasted delicious, freshly done. Portions are also pretty good for the price. Though I’m obsessed with the fish chips with the mild sauce. Considering they’re a new location, I’m impressed. Maybe tartar sauce for future menu?
Service is great – all staff are very friendly and understanding. Owners Justin and Gregg were very attentive.
Their social media is also up to date, so that is also ideal.

Had the jumbo shrimp and the fish chips. Both were good. Service was also good. Fries were not the best, I’d say skip that. The only thing I’d say they can work on is the cocktail sauce. I believe you should at least be able to get complimentary sauce with each order. You have to buy it on the side and it is $1.50 which I think is a bit steep for what you get since they are very small.

Love that it’s local and I don’t have to travel far for fried shrimp with the Chicago classic “Mild sauce” which is kinda like hot & BBQ sauce mixed together.
Food always comes out HOT! Which I love.
My favorites are the shrimp of course, clam strips and CORN NUGGETS. (Not on the menu, but just ask) think of it like a little cream corn nugget.
This place is under a new owner, who I observed, was great with the kids coming out of the high school across the street. Obviously they were his regulars because it’s like he knew their names and asked how they were doing in school, etc as if picking up where they left off in their last conversations.
It was really nice to see.
Come here because the food is yummy!
It’s just take out, no dine in seating.
