The 10 Best Restaurants For Shrimp Cocktails In Los Angeles

"Walking into HMS Bounty, the iconic nautical-themed dive bar in Koreatown, at any hour of the day is a feast for the senses: dimly lit leather booths, “Careless Whisper” playing from a vintage jukebox, and a come-as-you-are crowd eating baseball steaks and sipping well tequila. In other words, it’s both the absolute last place and the absolute perfect place to order a shrimp cocktail. The straightforward version here—four shrimp, classic cocktail sauce, and two packets of saltines—isn’t only good because of the setting (or the shot and beer combo you just knocked back), it’s good because the shrimp are plump, chilled, and delicious. And at $12, apparently inflation-proof. " - brant cox, arden shore
