I've been coming to Shell Shack since before the pandemic! My dad and I love to eat here together on special occasions, and I enjoy celebrating events here. Tonight was my 21st birthday and the wonderful, amazing staff made it special for me. They brought me a yummy birthday cheesecake and made sure my food was fresh, juicy, and hot! The prices are a little on the steep side, but I honestly can't complain when the service and food is as good as it is. The flavoring on all the food was great, the freshness of my crab and shrimp was wonderful, and the catfish was a good finisher for the night! I honestly love coming here. I wish I could do it more often!

Hey! We returned for a second experience a week or 2 ago… We requested the same server, Antonio and he was just as amazing as the first time. Though the prices here aren’t the best, they’re for sure not the worst. Me and my boyfriend barely spend over $50. They have a nice lunch menu that goes until about 4pm that has great deals. I will also recommend the Sangria!!! I decided to get the same shrimp as last time because it was so good!!!

Went here 2 weeks ago with my husband and our 2 year old. Loved the food, the boil was perfect and my sons order was plenty for him. I got the fried shrimp and the breading was perfect. Tartar sauce is on point! Our waitress was very helpful in explaining the menu and very attentive. We will definitely be back thank you!

Every one of these stars is for the food! The waitress was friendly and helpful. The food, however, was so good. The portions were decent too.

This place is great. The kitchen sink flavor is AMAZING!! I’m probably going to get that flavor over cajun next time. The crawfish were a tad small right now, so I’m excited to go back in the coming months. We ordered the fried pickles & calamari for apps and they did not disappoint.

This was our first time and will NOT be our last. It was SO good, the crab tots are so amazing, the Nashville chicken sandwich was good and the crawfish was THE best. T was our server and she did an amazing job of recommending and making us feel welcome. The manager walked around a few times asking everyone how they were enjoying and it was just a great experience. Thank you for great food and service! I will also add it was extremely clean and they're quick to clear those tables, which I can appreciate being in industry myself. See yall soon!

Pretty nice atmosphere, pretty decent food and the prices weren’t horrible. I can definitely see myself returning here with a few friends, family or even a date. I ordered the crab meat grilled cheese and my mother ordered the grilled shrimp. We didn’t leave hungry or disappointed. I personally wanted more meat within my dish but other than that everything was tasty. I don’t remember the name of the bartender who served me but he had locs and was very charming. I would recommend this place to a friend.

My sister is visiting from out of town and she wanted seafood. We happened to be in the area running errands. We looked up seafood and came upon this place and decided to check it out.This was a first time for all of us. The parking lot is small and could be particularly difficult, but luckily we were there during off peak hours, so parking was easy. The inside is cool. There's a patio and upstairs to sit, although this day it was closed. And it was hot.... so no sitting outside anyway. Friendly hostess greeted us as we walked in and then sat us down. The waitress was friendly. We arrived during happy hour and we put our drink orders in before HH was over. We ordered appetizers and food. Y'all food is yummy and those CrabTatorTots are the bomb!! You only get like 6 though. Calamari was good. Our food consisted of mainly shrimp and fries. Food was delicious and seasoned well. My garlic shrimp, came (cooked) with the skin still on (see photo) and I didn't care too much for that. But the fried shrimp didn't. The waitress didn't come back to see if we wanted our 2nd HH drinks. We had to find her. (It wasn't busy.) I would go back again. But I won't get the garlic shrimp next time and will go during off-peak hours to avoid full parking lot dilemmas.

Great atmosphere. Diverse audience. Food seasoned well. Only that Cajun is not mud - Cajun is in the spice. Maria, the waitress was nice. The staff has a mellow vibe. Drinks aren't as stiff but taste good. It was an experience.
