- JSJULIA STANTON2 days ago5.0Food was great and our server, August, was very cool! Easygoing, gave good food recommendations, and even quizzed us on some Forest Gump trivia! Service all around as good as last time, open to visiting again
- V1VV-legit 1015 days ago5.0Food was Amazing our waiter Billy was very on the ball with everything and friendly and the atmosphere is always good the only reason I give a 4 star to food was because the bucket of boat trash just wasn't as much seafood for the $45 price that it was used to be alot better but regardless still a great place to go with great service.
- SOStacy OttoJan 5, 20264.0Stopped in for lunch, was quiet because it was a Monday after the holidays. Ordered fish and chips, it was fabulous and large portions . Substituted fries for hush puppies. Hush puppies were great. Our server Chris was friendly and very helpful. Great experience
- BABernadette ArceloDec 20, 20252.0Here’s a short and clear review perfect for Google or Yelp: First time at Bubba Gump Shrimp at Mall of America. The food was good, but the portion was very disappointing. The $45 Boat Trash with Maine Lobster looked like it could serve two people, but it wasn’t even enough for one. We politely shared our feedback with the staff. Unfortunately, it’s not worth the price. Probably our first and last visit. I’d rather go to a steakhouse next time. 🥹 PS: We assume they’re still food inside the jar, but nothing, only that on the top 😩🥲
- RCRanieri ClaudioDec 18, 20252.0I was very disappointed with my experience at Bubba Gump. The food was significantly overpriced for the quality and portion sizes provided. For the amount we paid, the value simply was not there. One particularly frustrating moment was when our server asked if we would like a salad as an appetizer. In most dining establishments, this would reasonably be assumed to be included with the entrée or at least clearly explained as an additional charge. Unfortunately, that was not the case. We were charged $6.99 for a very small portion, something we would have declined had the cost been communicated upfront. The restaurant was nearly empty, which in hindsight was not surprising given the overall experience. Between the small portions and the high prices, this restaurant does not offer good value for customers. I would not recommend dining here and would suggest avoiding it altogether.
