We are going to have dinner at Bubba Gump's the first night. What time do you recommend going? It's a party of six and what should we order.

Thanks
 
I've eaten there three, four times now, and I've always gotten the same thing: Shrimp stuffed with crabmeat, topped with cheese and then broiled. It's sitting in some buttery juice, too, that's good for sopping up with the hunk of bread that comes with it.

My hubby gets the multi-shrimp platter for his entree. I don't recall the name specifically, but it's shrimp prepared several different ways and several dipping sauces come with it.

My mom usually gets a broiled/grilled shrimp/fish platter. I know it comes with jasmine rice and a veggie. She's always enjoyed it.

I know we've gotten appetizers before -- possibly onion rings? -- and while I don't recall being turned off by anything, obviously nothing was very memorable! Because I can't remember what we've ordered :)

I do recall their draught beer prices being really good. We got huge Yuenglings for around six bucks.
 
we ate in daytona..we got these sticks filled with little lobster tails..they were crispy and wonderfull...
 

We loved the atmosphere..as you can see by the picture on the left..but the food was mediocre, at best...the shrimp was on the slimey side..have a great trip! ;)
 
Bubba Gump's has a pretty good fish sandwich which I usually get. Comes with fries and coleslaw.

I've only eaten at Bubba Gumps in the Cancun airport and I swear the burger and fries I ordered was the best I have eaten in my life! Although, I am not sure how objective I could be at the time since we were returning home after a week of food at an all inclusive resort that made me want to get sick most of the time. (And this was a 5 Golden Apple on Apple Tours website!). We ordered at 10AM. DH and DS ordered breakfast but I ordered the fat, greasy, juicy, delectibly delightful cheeseburger. Yep, good ole American cuisine! I always thought my first meal at Bubba's would be shrimp. We promised ourselves that we will try Bubba's at USF on one of our trips this summer. The shrimp stuffed with crabmeat got my attention!
 
Some of my favorates so far:
Appetizers:
Onion Rings
Calamari Rings
Shrimper’s Net Catch(peel and eat is a pain though)


Dinner:
Shrimpers Heaven
I'm Stuffed Shrimp
Shrimpin Dippin Broth
 
Bucket of Boat Trash, one my favs...
 
My dh had two Bloody Mary's with lunch and swears that they are a meal in themselves. LOL!

"You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, sauté it. There's shrimp kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo, pan fried, deep fried, stir fried. There's pineapple shrimp and lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp in potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That's about it."

I like the Boat Trash
[ Deep fried shrimp, slipper lobster, and mahi mahi dusted with cajun spices and served with golden fries.]
 
Have they pared down their menu? We ate at the one in City Walk right after it opened and I had the Lt. Dan's Drunken Shrimp, DH had the platter( think it was boat trash). We ate at the one in Gatlinburg Tn last fall and no Drunken Shrimp, I got something that had cocanut shrimp, boiled shrimp and some others, I no longer see it on the menu either.

Not sure when you are going but try to avoid arriving right after the parks close. If you can you should rent the movie before you go because the wait staff will throw some trivia questions at you. I was surprised how many questions my son got right since the movie is kind of old.
