About

In Hawaii (Big Island), Hawaii Shrimp Company operates from 315 Makaala St in Hilo, HI 96720.

This is a fast food outlet, and it is known for shrimp dishes served from a counter. First-time visitors should expect a casual order-and-collect setup rather than table service. A 4.2 out of 5 average from 99 reviews reflects a steady following among locals and travellers passing through Hilo. Kailua-Kona, Volcano and Waimea are the nearby places most often paired with a stop on this side of the island.

Hilo sits on the windward side of the Big Island, where trade winds blow from the northeast and bring most of the rain to this coast. The kitchen trades as a fast food outlet, with takeaway orders the norm.

Hawaiian food includes plate lunches, poke made from raw fish, and kalua pork cooked in an imu earth oven, and a shrimp plate fits comfortably into that casual eating style. The Hawaiian monk seal and green sea turtle live in Hawaiian waters and haul out on its beaches. Hawaiian islands have windward and leeward coasts, with wetter and drier conditions respectively.
