One of the standout dishes at Fish River Grill #2:

The Shrimp Platter, which costs $21.99, is one of Fish River Grill #2's best meals. This substantial dish comes with classic Southern sides like fries and coleslaw in addition to a substantial serving of freshly fried shrimp. The shrimp retain their juicy and soft center even after being lightly coated and fried to a golden crisp, which goes perfectly with the zesty coleslaw. In order to counterbalance the savory elements, the platter also includes hush puppies. If you want to sample something from the Gulf Coast, this dish is a must-try for seafood enthusiasts.
