Bubba Gump Shrimp Co.

The Write-Up

The full story

Bubba Gump at Universal CityWalk leans fully into its movie theme, with trivia at the table and a room guests say makes you feel like you are in the film. Shrimp comes fried, coconut crusted and in a crab and shrimp boil, alongside shrimp mac and cheese and garlic bread guests keep recommending. The mood stays lively, nostalgic and family friendly, touristy in the way regulars embrace.
