3717 Las Vegas Boulevard South suite 2Q and 3C Las Vegas, NV , 89109-4308 Phone: (702) 795-1016 Website The Bubba Gump Shrimp Company Restaurant and Market is a seafood restaurant chain inspired by the 1994 film Forrest Gump. The first Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. restaurant and market opened in 1996 on Cannery Row in Monterey, California after the success of the movie “Forrest Gump.” We've since grown to include many notable locations throughout the United States and internationally. Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. captures the charm and American spirit that made “Forrest Gump” a smash hit, featuring down-home décor reminiscent of the movie’s setting in Alabama. Now branded as an American icon, the restaurant showcases memorabilia and still-photos from the movie, along with reproductions of script pages, storyboards and even some costumes.
