For centuries, tropical port cities have served as the gathering places where people, culture, and cuisine collide. Warm hospitality, high spirits, and the intoxicating surrounding from paradise come to life at Island Shrimp Co.

So come relax and talk story on our patio overlooking the James River and city skyline. Soak up the tropical vibes and we'll treat you to a menu rooted in some of the world's most exciting island destinations. Don't skip the aloha pineapple boat entree, or the hula ice cream pie dessert!

Don’t tip those waiters/waitresses they don’t tell you that tip is already included. Such a scam… wouldn’t recommend to my worst enemy. Enjoy if you like over paying for bad service

The service is exceptional. After the manager noticed that my family and I had a longer than normal wait for our food, she gifted us a free dessert. We didn’t even complain to our waitress because we realized they were busy. These are the things that make you return to a restaurant. And of course, the food being delicious too!

I booked the igloo experience. It’s decent. This is my second year booking it. It’s not really with the $80. And the $80 doesn’t go towards anything. Yes it is a private igloo, you do have a speaker in the igloo to play music. But due to the music that the restaurant is playing already, you’d be competing with sound. The first time had more of a “wow” factor. This time didn’t have the same allure
