Ordered the spicy shrimp – very tasty the hush puppies that came with it were too dense and oily for my preference. The fish and shrimp basket with fries was okay. The fish was oily too so only ate a bit. The food taste isn’t the worst, if they fix that issue that would make it an easier eat – just too oily. The beignets had an oil problem too considering the makeup of them which like a rolled dough that lost its texture due to the oil.

We were driving around the area and looking for a quick, early dinner. Skrimp Shack was close by and we gave it a go.

The catfish and hushpuppies were good. The mac and cheese however was not. The sauce resembles mayo. Just noodles and sauce with no flavor. The tartar sauce is so good, and I do not even eat tartar sauce!

Being physically challenged, it is necessary to have delivery of my meals. I can NOT find enough words to express just how awesome this place is for such excellent food and service. Today was my 1st order and definitely will NOT be my last. CASSANDRA answered with patience all my questions on the phone to help me place my order. She sent love in and with my food. How lucky a business owner is to have such a wonderful employee and happy dedicated professional staff. I have NEVER EVER had such a superior haddock fish sandwich! My hat is off to the Chef. It was so tasty with the perfect spices, so fresh, definitely plentiful, and prepared Mitch’s way. I loved it!!!! I am so glad my neighbor, Sam, who eats there ALL the time, suggested I try this place. He was right. Definitely a true asset to Dumfries and Northern Virginia. I will pass the word that this is the place!!

Came in an hour before close and they were out of calamari and oysters. The shrimp and crab po boy was a 7/10, pretty good but needs a real remoulade. The sauce they gave me was like a vinegarette? Also, the po boy comes with nothing but bread, shrimp, and scant crab meat. They’re able to add on lettuce, tomato, etc but it’d be an obsurdly dry sandwich with just what it comes with. Mac and cheese wasn’t very good, a 6/10.

Customer service from Shawn was outstanding! The entire facility was spotless down to the waiting area. Shawn worked hard explaining the menu and making recommendations. She was kind, and made sure that we were satisfied with our meals, however satisfied is an understatement. Can’t wait to dine again.

I had an amazing experience. From the delicious food to the excellent service, this place is definitely at the top of my list to visit again. Shawna was a cashier and she went out of her way to make sure we were ok and enjoying our food. 10/10 I would recommend this place to anyone. Lunch or dinner, I’ve never had a bad experience here.

As someone from the Caribbean, I have a deep love for seafood, which is a big part of my upbringing. One place that has always satisfied my cravings for fried seafood is Shrimp Shack. I have practically tried every item on their menu, but their catfish stands out as my absolute favorite. During my last visit, I couldn’t resist getting the Shack Pack, even though I am currently located four counties away from the restaurant.
