The Hard Shell

It was not busy for our party of four that walked in for lunch on a Friday. The host stand was very nice & our server. Kaylee was excellent. The Oysters we chose for their brine were excellent & they were shucked to perfection and served with an excellent mignonette sauce and fresh horseradish with cocktail sauce. Highly recommend. The sea crab soup was average, too much flour in the mix & not enough crab. The lobster rolls were average. The Caesar salad with anchovies was fine. The rare tuna was also good.

This was the perfect place for a date night. The service was excellent. Food was delicious. And we loved the way each plate was prepared. Will definitely want to come again.

This restaurant deserves its high score reviews. The service is really pleasant and friendly, while professional. The food is of great quality, good taste and in well sized portions. We would come back many times to this place if we lived in Richmond

We drove 3 hours for this restaurant and can I say that it was so worth it! The family and I went during happy hour, so the prices were great. The food was amazing (I wish the tacos were a bit spicy, but that's just me), the seafood was fresh, and the combination of all the ingredients just went so well together. And the service was great too! Will definitely go here again during my next trip!

The food was great! We really enjoyed the prompt and attentive service! The drinks were good, we had a great time!
