Goose Island Shrimp House has been serving the Goose Island area for more than 40 years, and calls itself Chicago's oldest shrimp house. It's a takeout-driven, no-frills operation on Division Street with fried and boiled seafood as the focus rather than any dining room polish.
The jumbo fried shrimp is the draw, backed by a reputation for quality over quantity in its pricing. It's built a base of devoted repeat customers over the decades, and the Chicago Tribune has featured the spot in its coverage.
