About The Half Shell

The Half Shell offers a variety of seafood options, including a shrimp poboy and seafood boil that are praised for their delicious taste and affordability. Known for large portions and reasonably priced meals, the restaurant has many dishes that customers enjoy, such as fried shrimp, grouper, catfish, and shrimp scampi, all cooked well and seasoned just right. The oysters are a highlight, with fresh raw oysters and oysters Rockefeller receiving high praise. Many visitors also love the homemade tea cakes, which are said to be made from a grandmother's recipe, and some buy them in bulk because they are so good. The Brunswick stew is also well-liked, even if it isn’t everyone's favorite. The sauces for the barbecue are described as delicious, and the friendly, patriotic owner helps create a welcoming atmosphere. Service and atmosphere are generally good, with many customers planning to return, especially for their succulent fried oysters, big shrimp, and the tasty banana pudding. Despite some quiet moments and a strange atmosphere during a visit, the food remains a favorite for seafood lovers.
