I think you might be paying for the view.
Louisflakes@reddit
a view you say?

You would get a world class shrimp cocktail or tostada at one of the many Mexican seafood trucks. But this one here seems like it’s more for the experience and view

Best enchiladas I ever had were from a rando truck -- not even a food truck just a regular pickup truck -- in a grocery store parking lot with a plywood and spray paint sign that literally just said enchiladas. Received wrapped in tin foil in a paper bag that was soaked and dripping out the bottom.
They were incredible.

Yea, there is a mariscos truck down the street from my house that's mostly better than anything I've had at a fancy sea side place.

In my experience as an LA transplant in Seattle, I found the only good Mexican food was from catering trucks. What passes for Mexican over there is comparable to that one Mex restaurant in Disneyland. Not great

the shrimp is questionable looking . but the view is nice

Is this not an AI generated image? Why is the glass vertical but the plate is being held at an angle? The image looks really weird at the stem where the glass connects to the base.

They would have to peel me off the line cook

Oh yeah, no.
Illustrious-Bake3878@reddit
They really cock-tailed it up.

Those aren’t cocktail shrimp, wtf? “The quality of a restaurants food is almost always in direct inverse proportion to the quality of the view” -Anthony Bourdain

Krill?

Ha, recognized the view immediately. Hello, Chinooks
DefinitelyNotLola@reddit
Those are spoon shrimp.
calzonegolem@reddit
I'm not sure it is ever worth purchasing shrimp cocktail while dining out.

The one at Fleming’s is always delicious. The shrimps are the size of my palm.
Dizzy-Sundae6351@reddit
I can’t imagine looking at a menu and thinking “Ooooh! Shrimp cocktail!”.
oyst@reddit
yeah it's not the 40s
chrisp5000@reddit
Theres a large possibility that those shrimp are farm raised in a lake somewhere far away.
GenericAlcoholic@reddit
Very 1970’s uk looking shrimp cocktail right down to the type of shrimp.
PrimeWaffle@reddit
Think I'll get a 2lb bag of shrimp from the grocery store for $18 instead. Nice view though

This is heinous
februarytide-@reddit
Aahhhhh that sundae glass is killin me this is hilariously bad
Devmoi@reddit
Yikes, that’s horrible. I would be so pissed. And I’m sure you are too.
solarus@reddit
A cup of literal brine shrimp
Relative_Yesterday70@reddit
Those shrimp come out of a can? And the ice cream glass…
Honeysenpaiharuchan@reddit
Guess if you walk down the docks you can just hang your ass over the water if you get diarrhea. The shrimp runs.
FoTweezy@reddit
This is like 3rd rate American Chinese fried rice shrimp. Cocktail it is not.
Olive_1084@reddit
Those little shrimp are instinctively questionable. Unless you knew they were freshly boiled.

I went to Miami with my wife and ordered a shrimpcocktail that cost 30 bucks. It was 5 dollars a shrimp
Adept-Pattern8584@reddit
At that price you might as well take the plate and glass home.
TahiniInMyVeins@reddit
This looks like those fancy treats that come in a packet sleeve. You know, for cats.
UsedWelcome5903@reddit
Can confirm you’re in the right sub
Frankenfucker@reddit
Are those salad shrimp? Whoever came up with this take needs to be removed from the kitchen.
