I'm really curious about this place but haven't heard much. Does it take reservations? Where is it? Most importantly, how's the food?

Any opinions, pro or con, would be very appreciated!
 
Its at city walk, doesn't take reservation and the food is really good( if you like shrimp!) they do other bits too but the majority of the meal is shrimp.
ITs a really fun atmosphere. My son and i really like it and think prefer this one to the one in NYC :-)

Great "Shrimp New Orleans" and decent milkshakes that almost taste as good as ice cream.
 

There's a Bubba Gumps in New Orleans' French Quarter. The food there is delicious. My daughter loves that restaurant,so we plan on eating there when we go in May.
 
Try the Far Out Dip! It's really excellent (no shrimp in that). My hubby liked the Fish and Chips. They also have some really friendly staff there. It's one of our new favorites. :)
 
My family has done Bubba Gumps at Daytona. The shrimpers absolutely love it! I have something non seafood and the food has always been good. My children think the atmosphere is a lot of fun. They beg to go there to eat.
 
we went last October and liked it. DD10 and I don't eat shrimp(she dosen't even like seafood) and we enjoyed our meal. DH couldn't decide between two shrimp dishes, so he ate 1 there and took one back to the room for later. We had fun with our server doing a Forrest Gump trivia game, too. I had a really good drink there, and I can't remember the name. We got to keep our glasses(you pick up a brand new glass like the one your drink was in at the giftshop), and I still use mine. Enjoy

Tara - what did you and your daughter eat? My DS17 doesn't like seafood, and he doesn't like burgers, either. When I looked at the menu on the link posted above, there isn't anything other than burgers and a pulled pork sandwich (an iffy thing with him). The kids' menu DID have a pepperoni pizza; wonder if they'd let a 17-year-old order from the kids' menu?
 
Pastamore is located next to Bubba Gumps. So if the DS17 doesn't see anything on the menu he likes, he can go next door to Pastamore and eat pizza or pasta. At Pastamore, you walk up, order your food, then eat at tables outside. He could then come back and join you for desert or meet you outside.
 
surprised there's no steak; most seafood houses have a surf & turf option.

They also have chicken strips and fried chicken. Looks great too!

DH had the 'Bubba's After the Storm Bucket of Boat Trash', which he really liked.

I had 'Bubba's After the Storm Bucket of Boat Trash' at Bubba Gumps in San Francisco last year and must say it is a nice selection of seafood :hippie:

Claire ;)
 
The menu on Allearsnet is more accurate to how I remember it being, I think the internet menu is just a small selection.

I agree cause I looked and the chicken isn't on there either! I must say that picture of yours of the boat trash looks amazing! I know what I'm having when we finally eat there.:thumbsup2
 
Claire - thanks for the All Ears menu - I feel better about it now.

That photo of bucket of boat trash looks like it could feed 3 or 4 people! Yowza!
 
I have an actual menu from Bubba Gump's :rolleyes1 and when we were there in Feb., i had the southern fried chicken...and i must admit, it was VERY good! (i don't eat seafood, but i HAD to go here to eat :laughing: ) I would go...it was a fun atmosphere and good food......here's some of my pics:

Wow, great pics and I appreciate both menus. There's plenty I'd like but so far the Shrimp New Orleans and the Key Lime Pie sound the best.

Where in Citywalk is it? Did it replace one of the other restaurants?

It is not as much as you think as it is really only at the top of the bucket beneath the top layer it is a bottom so the bucket is not actually full from bottom to top! Even still an original way to serve it up and it tastes good too!
