The Original Island Shrimp House

Met the owner, super nice guy. I wanted to experience a variety of food.So we ordered a small clam chowder soup, it was divine. Then we got a jumbo crab leg, an order of cod and a lb of old bay peel and eat shrimp ?.I have never had a lobster roll and didn't want to order one for fear of not liking it.The owner gave me a small sample, which I really appreciated, his kindness!Can't wait to go back and try some more goodies.Our little tasting of food was expensive the over one lb crab leg costing the most. It was truly worth it. It's not something we splurge on often.But definitely going back. The owner put us on his daily specials list, and I love it.I can pick a day where we can try something new.Thanks for your guidance and by the way your homemade tarter sauce was the best!

I often came by this place with my wife, we finally decided to stop a light lunch at her birthday. I have eaten good Clam Chowder on the east coast and west, but the Clam Chowder on this small (Chicago) suburb was undeniably the best. I am so glad that the waiter recommended the maize bread because it has really complicated the soup and was sooooo good! We also ordered fried shrimps, the bread was crispy and the shrimps were brilliant. Can't wait to go back and try some of the other seafood specialties.

Just…absolutely breathtaking.The music, the ambiance and the food of this place make it a clear winner. Being in the Midwest we are not seen as a center of seafood but this place does not disappoint. We tried the shrimp bisque soup and then went on a Fried and grilled culinary journey. To say I was pleasantly surprised was an understatement.Would come again!

Feel like we get fresh fish from the Gulf of Mexico. However, I think that all small fees for various sauces should be built in the price of food.
