We went there recently and I got the AYCE shrimp deal.  I was satisfied.
I got the scampi and the cajun for my first two choices.  Then I got a
refill via the coconut shrimp bites.   IMO, all three of those were good
and I liked the scampi best, with the other two close behind.  I was not
tempted by the shrimp alfredo -- I've had too many pasty alfredo's.  The
last one was at RL's sister restaurant -- Olive Garden.

Gail had the coconut shrimp as her meal, from the regular entree menu.
Her coconut shrimp were better than my coconut shrimp bites.
