on Citysearch Nov 20, 2006Dipping bread into what looks like melted butter with unpeeled shrump might not appeal to you. It didn't entirely appeal to me at first, but then I tried it. It was VERY yummy! It's very very greasy so I can't justify... (more)

on Citysearch Feb 12, 2004Killer Shrimp is a great place for simple food. The taste, on the other hand, is anything but simple. The place has a limited menu because it only serves shrimp. But that is their forte. The broth is very, very tasty, and... (more)
