3 hour wait, so husband and l sat at bar. Service was poor, bar tenders stood around talking to each other. Had to prompt them to give us service, didn't make eye contact or asked if we needed anything. Bubba Gumps please train your staff to be more attentive to your customers. It wasn't just us who were ignored it was other couples at bar.

I was very dissapointed, I had no idea you could ruin shrimps that much. They were definitely not the worst thing ever, but there was way too much oil which did not taste fresh. I would work more on the sauces as well. Once again a big chain proves to be just another 'factory' not paying attention to details.

The first time I ate at the famous Bubba Gump Shrimp. To be honest, I wasn't that impressed. Maybe it was the food I ordered, but other than the delicious peel and eat shrimp, my meal was, meh... The service was great though. The food? Not so much.

I have no idea how come such a place has received so many nice reviews. I took my kid to this place for lunch a couple of days ago. We had a stroller with us, and the lady at the front desk didn't mention anything about it. However, when the waitress who led us to the table saw the stroller, she literally yelled at us saying "No stroller in the restaurant! This is the rule!". Very rude and impatient.After we were seated, for over 30 minutes, the waiter serving the table didn't bring the water to us, even though there were only a handful of customers in the restaurant and he was not busy at all. We dined for another half an hour or so, didn't get any water refill. Food was mediocre, definitely not worth the price.

The servers were amazing and the food was excellent. We every much enjoyed the atmosphere and the trivia questions about Forrest Gump. I wish I had a better memory so I could remember their names and thank them again for their excellent service.

Great atmosphere. Great drinks. And awesome food. I'm a Forrest Gump fan and I am glad that I came here and it's very near to the aquarium!

Bubba Gump Shrimp Co was great me and my family are here because it was close to the aquarium the price was good and the food and wait staff was great. I had the shrimp Po Boy and it was excellent, they even have great choices for the kids. Overall I was very satisfied and will be going back in the future

Made our family feel welcome. They were super kind to our kids and we got exceptional service from every employee that we came into contact with. The food was good, too, and I enjoyed the Louisiana Lemonade.

It was ok. I felt like there was very few shrimp stuff on the menu. Because they do the wait list with Yelp I think that really hinders them. I put us on the list before we left the house. It told me I needed to check in by 7:03 but we weren't seated until after 8pm. So I'm not sure if there's a way to not check in and also have your spot held. I got the ribs and shrimp. The shrimp was extremely bland and under seasoned. I was dipping it in the bbq sauce just to have some flavor. The ribs were pretty good. But nothing is worth a 3 hour wait so I don't think I'll be going back for disappointing food. I know they were struggling because it was so busy, you could hear a lot of the servers openly complaining which didn't help.

This is one of our most favorite restaurants. Great food, fabulous Monterey water views and fun atmosphere. Plus the club has great benefits.

The food was great even for the 30-40 minute wait time. Some of the decor looks like it came straight from the movie Forest Gump and the server even asked us some trivia questions while we waited for our food which was awesome! Love the movie, the food, and the restaurant. I'm definitely going back!

Love this place. Try to get over a couple times a year. Even though they are always busy, service is always top notch, and food is excellent.

Local tourist trap. Nice views, food is average. Staff wear headsets like they are running security for a casino. Lots of fun movie set photos and props.
