Captain Shrimp

new owners but same good quality and servicewe pick up a bite to eat here when bowling at Timber Lanes. their Jerk Chicken Wrap is spicy, as it should and the Marinated Chicken Wrap was delicious. the girl usually gets the Shrimp Wrap and some Clam Strips.

Wahoo! This place is super super super good!They don't get five stars and let me explain the good and the bad. The food is on .5 stars. The bathroom is through the kitchen... Literally next to the guy that is shocking, the shrimp... One star Parking is pretty easy, being it's on the street.Overall, it's pretty close to the Cubs stadium and a quick drive over... Or a fairly good walk. Four stars.Price for the amount of food..., So value, three stars.Drink options , one star.Food menu options, four stars.The owner of the business is fairly new... And the person behind the counter, making the food and take any orders is the owner's cousin. So I think anybody that has been there before should definitely come back to see if the experience and the food and the flavors are the same?? I'm not quite sure because I've never been there before.I do like that every single shrimp is fresh and peeled to order... However, I don't like that it is literally 2 feet from the bathroom, ( that's how I know they peelEach shrimp to order .... Lol) I have to say the service here was pretty on point! Everybody was very accommodating and extremely helpful.When you come in to order... Make sure to bring your pocketbook and order a little something extra... The price compared to the amount of food that you get is not quite balanced. I feel like I should have gotten twice the amount of food for the amount that I actually paid.There's not very many drink options... So you're gonna wanna come here for the food and not the drinks, lol. Also, this place is extremely small. So if you're planning on eating inside, make sure that you come early enough so that there's seating available. You of course can always grab your shrimp Poboy and pop a squat on the curb outside of the restaurant... but that's not really my thing.Anyway, check it out... Let me know for those of you guys that have been there before if the flavors and the price and the value are the same as they were before... I'm curious to see ...

DO NOT EAT THIS FOOD!These new owners purchased this business from the longtime previous owner, who was fabulous and friendly, and cared about every detail of his business provided delicious food that had regular visitors. The new owners are extremely unfriendly, arrogant low-key, hostile, and have served me spoiled cooked calamari.Yesterday, I visited the restaurant for my usual order of calamari and was told that I could not use my debit card, next time, or they would have to charge me a two dollar fee added to the price of calamari, for the use of debit card. That was the last straw for me. Their prices are already outrageous. Furthermore who wants food from angry owners!

Chicago does a lot of things well, but seafood for some reason isn't a strength. It's mind boggling considering we border a Great Lake. Sure I wouldn't expect shrimp, but it's virtually impossible to find fresh grilled fish. Bass, perch, whitefish, trout are all plentiful in Lake Michigan. ..I digress.You won't fish grilled fish at Snappy's, but you will find Chicago Style Shrimp. Some might find the breading a little heavy. Snappy's doesn't bread like Lawrence's. It's similar to Frank's l, Troha's and Red Hot's. They also have fried fish, clams, scallops, and wings. Sandwiches, salads, and wraps round out the menu. 3.5 overall. Not a bad option if you're in the neighborhood and craving fried seafood. However, if you are in the neighborhood. .. Little Bad Wolf is nearby and they have some of the best shrimp in Chicago.

It's just ok . A bit dry and the onion rings were plain awful. Lots of breading and not much fish .

Best deep-fried shrimp I've had in Chicago always get at least a half a pound along with the catfish. Took my eight-year-old there and he loved it. The song says are just another added recommendation for anybody wanting to try a great carry out. Shrimp shop.

Best shrimp in Chicago! Always good and fresh! Love this place for years and years. Good service.

The service was great, and the were better. I recommend this restaurant to anyone. Thanks, captain shrimp.

Unfortunately the shrimp isn't the same as the old owners. Every shrimp in my order was a different size & every one was so over cooked from the smallest to the largest. They were like hard rubber. The sauce was the same/good. Breading was nice crispy & golden brown but overall had a metallic taste. Really disappointed. Might give them 1 more try, but again the cook time on the shrimp is Essential !!

Food was great- the wraps are delicious and the beverages are cold they serve RC, a beverage classic
