Our server Chris was great... However line cooks suck...I ordered the stuffed shrimp..It was AWFUL ?..Soggy and our soup was lukewarm.. Suggested our waiter share this with someone...Of it won't happen nor will THIS post make a difference.. Someone should really do QUALITY CONTROL on the food...PS great movie...Now do better with the FOOD

202404 Old memories turned downhill reality. Sad portion. Sad soggy fries. Sad tough onion ring. Shrimp “tempura” batter far too oily.The Cajun seasoning for the steamed shrimp and the fried shrimp still taste good.Steamed broccoli is green and decent.Service is friendly but really slow and not attentive enough even out of peak hour.

Italians on a family leisure trip, Easter weekend. On Good Friday, March 29, 2024 we ordered fish and chips: dishes arrived at the table lukewarm with a rubbery and swollen breading significantly detached from what was called fish inside!!!!

What a gem! I expected this place to be a pretty mediocre restaurant given the Forrest Gump "gimmick", but I was pleasantly surprised with the food. The portions are huge and well worth the money, the flavours were on point and the theming was nostalgic but not too intrusive. I had Forrest's ribeye and shrimp, with a dr peper of course; the steak was a perfect medium and the shrimp were flavourful and tender. Bubba gump was a great way to end our trip to NYC, I highly recommend it.

We walked right passed the restaurant but ended up going back when we found out it was upstairs. The food was subpar. We had the platter & the spinach dip was warm, the shrimp & hushpuppies were good but the chicken was tough to bite. Our waitress was great! We tried the lemon blueberry for a dessert & it was okay...kinda got better as you ate it. 4/10

I've visited many Bubba Gumps around the world and this one ranks the best in terms of the staff and the size of the restaurant. Even in a very busy weekend evening, we were able to quickly get seats and the staff made us feel welcoming and set the fun mood.Drinks are fantastic, people are having a lot of fun, and the place is lively and noisy as it is supposed to be.The cocktails are especially good; the garlic shrimp is cooked so perfectly. The only downside I can say is that the Run Across America Sampler seems to be smaller and have less items compared to the Bubba Gump locations in other countries - wouldn't recommend that.

Great food! Fabulous service by Kareem! Just like when Forrest Gump ran across the country, Kareem gave us a fast paced and excellent service!

Very nice place. It feels like you're in the movie. The food is certainly not of the best quality but it is still very good. The lovely staff. Come at lunchtime, there are a lot fewer people and the service is much faster. I also recommend the jimbalaya which is excellent or the tenders with fries. To do if you pass by Times Square.Kid-friendliness: The settings reminiscent of the film are very nice to look at and the background music is quite catchy. The children will feel very good there.
I love Forrest Gump, but had no idea of that restaurant existing, although Ive been next to it so many times. Very nice design, atmosphere, all following the theme of the movie. Waiters give you little movie quiz at the end. Very fun. Prices are Times Square prices, food mediocre. It’s good, but nothing special about it in my opinion. In general, very adorable place.

Great atmosphere in this theme restaurant. Staff very helpful and work very hard.My son has a nut allergy and staff were great at checking ingredients for us!Reasonably priced and in a central location. Food is really good and also themed.Entry isn’t obvious, you enter via the ground floor shop.

Eh...the food was just "okay" for the hype. I had salmon and it was bland but not dry.

Very nice experience at Bubba gump.Top-notch service with an adorable waiter who takes great care.Very good and plentiful cuisine. Be careful of the jambalaya which is very spicy and the large portions which are very large!!!Great atmosphere in front of the giant screens of Times Square.I recommend !!!Wheelchair accessibility: My son was in a wheelchair and the support was immediate with access to the elevator
