TL;DR
Grilled and boiled shrimp are widely available at cafes and markets throughout Nha Trang. Half a kilo of grilled shrimp costs roughly 200–250k VND.
What's sold as 'lobster' in Vietnam is actually spiny lobster (no claws), and local preparation can be hit or miss. A kilogram of medium-sized shrimp is a better bet — tastier and more reliably cooked.
Cooked shrimp to go can be found at local markets in Nha Trang, where vendors often prepare them fresh on-site. Street seafood cafes and restaurants can also pack them to take away.
Shrimp in Nha Trang are cheap and available everywhere. Half a kilo of grilled shrimp at a regular cafe runs about 200–250k VND — a very reasonable price for fresh seafood.
