Search “shrimp delivery” and the results usually shove you toward two options that miss the Southern California freezer job. Grocery and restaurant apps: a tray for tonight’s skillet. National seafood shippers: a foam cooler that may sit on a porch in Newport Beach, Pasadena, or Carlsbad while you are still commuting. Neither is a freezer plan of individually packed shrimp you cook when you are ready — not when the box arrives.
Shrimp delivery, as Personal Gourmet runs it, means restaurant-quality shrimp hand-delivered into your freezer across seven Southern California counties. We are a family-owned company (Personal Gourmet, Inc., since 2001). No order minimums. No contracts. Pricing is personal — because a couple stocking weekend shrimp and a family mixing shrimp with salmon and steak do not buy the same way.
Note: We are not the Philadelphia “Personal Gourmet” brand you may see in national search results. This page is about Personal Gourmet’s SoCal in-person freezer service — local hand-load, not a mail-order seafood club.
What people usually get when they search shrimp delivery
- National seafood shippers: mail-order packaging. Fine if someone is home to unpack immediately. A risk when the box sits in Southern California heat. See USDA FSIS mail-order food safety and FoodSafety.gov on meal-kit delivery.
- Grocery and restaurant apps: useful for tonight’s plate. Not a stocked freezer of shrimp portions you chose ahead of time.
- Personal Gourmet: a person arrives, walks the order into your kitchen, and loads the freezer. Mornings, afternoons, or evenings. Seven days a week on the free SoCal route.
If you wanted cardboard and gel packs, that is a different category. If you wanted shrimp freezer delivery Southern California — or shellfish delivery SoCal that never sits on the stoop — you are in the right place.
Shrimp on the shellfish lineup
Shrimp sits in the shellfish category on our current shellfish products page. The live listing has included cooked and un-cooked shrimp selections (for example cooked 16/20 and 8–12, plus un-cooked 8–12 and U-15 styles when stocked). Confirm which shrimp programs, pack styles, and available sizes are current with a specialist — we do not invent a public price sheet or fixed portion chart on this page.
Portions arrive individually packed so you thaw only what you will cook. That is the practical difference from buying a family bag you have to re-portion yourself, or from a “seafood sampler” you did not choose SKU by SKU.
Sister seafood and protein URLs if you are building a mixed freezer: salmon delivery, plus beef and poultry on the beef and poultry product pages, and cuts such as filet mignon delivery. This URL stays on shrimp.
Why porch delivery still fails shrimp in SoCal heat
Shellfish quality does not survive the danger zone. A pack that warms on an Orange County or Inland Empire step is no longer the product you ordered. Our answer is not a thicker ice pack. It is in-person freezer load while someone is home — free across Santa Barbara, Ventura, Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino, Riverside, and San Diego counties. See the service-area page for the county list.
County deep-dives if you want the local traffic angle: Los Angeles, Orange County, and San Diego.
Outside Southern California we can discuss nationwide shipping with shipping and handling. That is a different product from free local freezer delivery.
How the order works
- 1. Free consultation. Tell us you want shrimp — cooked or un-cooked styles on the current listing — and anything else you actually eat. A specialist calls back — usually within one business day — with current personal pricing. Zero pressure.
- 2. Custom order. Individually packed. Shrimp for Tuesday and salmon or steak for Saturday can share one freezer. Browse the full mix on the products page; see how it works for the delivery flow.
- 3. Free freezer delivery. Hand-delivered in person across the seven counties. Unused portions you do not like can be exchanged. That guarantee is how the company has worked for 25 years.
No minimums. No maximums. No contracts. Ever. Try a few shrimp packs. Fill a chest freezer with mixed shellfish, fish, and beef. Skip a month. Prefer the phone? Call 1-888-870-FOOD (1-888-870-3663).
Who should order shrimp this way — and who should stay on the apps
Stay on grocery and restaurant apps if you need a hot meal or a single tray tonight. Call us if any of this matches your week:
- You searched shrimp delivery because you want shellfish packed and frozen until you are ready to cook.
- You want shrimp freezer delivery Southern California without a porch-box gamble in July heat.
- You cook shrimp a few nights a week and hate last-minute supermarket runs after an hour on the 405 or the 91.
- You have mixed eaters: shrimp for one night, salmon or steak for another — all separately packed in one stop.
We are not a restaurant. We are not a health clinic — this page is about stocking good shrimp in your freezer, not about medical outcomes. Personal Gourmet has grown on word of mouth since 2001. If hand-into-freezer shrimp is what you meant by shrimp delivery, the next step is a pricing conversation.

Shrimp delivery FAQ
What kinds of shrimp do you carry?
Shrimp is part of the shellfish mix on the current shellfish lineup (cooked and un-cooked styles when stocked). Confirm the live listing, available pack styles, and personal pricing with a specialist — offerings can change.
Is this mail-order shrimp shipped in a box?
Not on the seven-county Southern California route. We hand-deliver into your freezer in person. Nationwide shipping is available outside SoCal with shipping and handling; that is a separate conversation from free local freezer delivery.
Can I mix shrimp with salmon or steak in one delivery?
Yes. Build a custom order across shellfish, fish, beef, and poultry. Sister pages such as salmon delivery stay focused on those SKUs; this page stays on shrimp.
Do you publish a price list online?
No. Pricing is personal. Start on the homepage or call 1-888-870-FOOD for a free consultation.
