One of the smaller, more unique areas of Los Angeles is Marina del Rey. This little slip is home to many of the boats and yachts in Los Angeles. Often used as a filming location, it lies just south of Venice. A number of restaurants lie along Admiralty Way, but the standout is definitely Killer Shrimp.
Most famous for its namesake dish, Killer Shrimp offers picture perfect views of the Marina if you are lucky enough to grab one of the outside tables. They also have a bar that offers Happy Hour inside, as well as a number of TV’s to watch the games on, yet still provide a waterfront view. The original Killer Shrimp recipe is a southern style broth with a little kick. After simmering for 10 hours, the shrimp is added upon your order and served with French bread. While most rave about this dish, I found it good, but not the highlight of the restaurant. Instead, that spot is reserved for the Killer Shrimp Mac & Cheese. This scrumptious dish is not too rich and features a bit of the broth mixed in, which adds an explosion of flavor and a little juice to create a unique twist on the American classic.
Not much else needs to be said: just go with the Killer Shrimp Mac & Cheese.
