Everything We Know About Island Shrimp Co. at Rocketts Landing
For centuries, tropical port cities have served as the gathering places where people, culture, and cuisine collide. Warm hospitality, high spirits, and intoxicating surroundings from paradise come to life at Island Shrimp Co.
So, come and relax and talk story. Soak up the tropical vibes, and we’ll treat you to a menu rooted in some of the world’s most exciting island destinations. — Island Shrimp Co.
Island Shrimp Co. is a Chesterfield Towne Center favorite bringing a taste of paradise to Rocketts Landing. As big fans of Conch Republic Rocketts, we were sad to see the Key West-inspired restaurant close its doors at the end of last summer. While no one can quite fill that Swamp Bite-sized hole in our hearts, we look forward to welcoming Island Shrimp Co. to its newest location and toasting a Bahama Mama (or two) to the spot’s beautiful view of the James.
This Saturday, May 14, marks the grand opening of the highly-anticipated restaurant at Rocketts Landing. Here's everything we know about it:
The Space
As soon as you walk in, you'll feel like you're on a tropical island. The space is open and airy with every seat providing a waterfront view. The space can hold 80 people inside as well as outside. We expect the deck to be full all summer long!
A Taste of Paradise
Food
Their menu is rooted in some of the world’s most exciting island destinations. Some of their signature dishes include the Aloha Pineapple Boat, Jamaican Jerk, Hawaiian Garlic, Habanero Spicy, and Coconut Shrimp, and their Veggie and Protein Bowls that focus on what’s local, in season, and tasting its best. Be on the lookout for lunch and brunch service, soon!
Drinks
Their full bar is loaded with Signature Cocktails, Island Classics, Seasonal Cocktails, and Classic Cocktails. They even have a stellar mocktail list!
Enjoy the Painkiller — it was inspired by the original Soggy Dollar Bar in the British Virgin Islands. It is made with Pusser's Navy Strength Rum, cream of coconut, pineapple juice, OJ, and freshly grated nutmeg served in their signature "Island Life" souvenir cup.
The When & Where
The grand opening is Saturday, May 14, at 4 pm for dinner service.
