Customer Reviews
Overall, we were pleased with our visit to Shuckin' Shack! It’s definitely a fun, high-energy spot with a cool coastal vibe (loved the big shark decor). The food hit the spot—the oysters were fresh and the tacos were tasty. Just a heads-up: it can get pretty loud inside. Between the music, the TVs, and the general crowd, it's a busy environment, so don't expect a quiet conversation. The only confusing part for us was the menu pricing. A lot of the raw bar and steamed items are listed as "Market Price." We didn't realize until later that there is a chalkboard on the wall breaking down those daily costs. It would have been helpful if that was clearer for first-time visitors, but once we found it, it was fine. Good experience overall and we'd come back!
Came in for my dad's bday and had an excellent time. Very nice atmosphere and good food (albeit quite pricey). I had the po boy which was nice and we had a sampling of appetizers, oysters, nachos, tacos and more. A nice place to go, but the food is pricy so check out the deals ahead of time (they have something different each day) to get the best bang for the buck.
The ambiance and staff were great! We weren’t a fan of the food though. It could have been an off night, or just us, but neither my date nor me liked what we ordered other than the oysters. Those were pretty good.
I stopped in for lunch and was told to sit anywhere. The waitress asked if I’d been there before; when I said no, she pointed out the specials listed on the chalkboard. I thought I saw a chicken sandwich listed, but it turned out to be a BLT—so that one was on me. I ended up ordering the Shrimp & Grits and the Chicken Sandwich. The shrimp and grits were not what I expected—the grits were fried into firm balls with a creamy sauce poured over them. The sauce tasted like mayonnaise with a touch of chipotle, and while the server said it was a customer favorite, it just wasn’t for me. The chicken sandwich didn’t impress me either. The bun was much larger than the piece of grilled chicken inside, and the chicken itself had no seasoning. It was served with a side of butter, hush puppies, and co
Great Food, Great Service – Highly Recommend! I had a great experience at this restaurant! The atmosphere was really nice and welcoming. I sat at the bar, and the barmaid/waitress was super friendly and attentive throughout my visit. I started with the oysters, which were amazing. They had a selection of about four or five different kinds, and I loved that you could mix and match. Each one I had was fresh and delicious. I also tried the crab leg cluster, which came with corn on the cob, very flavorful and cooked just right. Since I was still a little hungry, I added the fish and chips to my order. The fish was perfectly fried with great flavor, and the fries were seasoned nicely, crisp, and tasty. They also had a nice small selection of beers on tap! Even though it looked like only two
