"I was told this place was good and I've seen nothing but good reviews about them. So I took the risk and ordered something for myself. I got the 1 lb shrimp and 1/2 lb catfish with fries. Both were good, just enough breading without being over breaded. The shrimp were plump, fresh and cooked well. Will be going to Shrimp Island again :-)"
