I love their pretzels, watch out they are addictive! The owners and staff are very nice and friendly. They worked well with my mother’s allergies going above and beyond to make sure she was safe.

Highly recommended!!! The food was absolutely delicious. Service was friendly. Shrimp, crab, mussels, and even the potatoes were awesome. Give this place a try, I'm absolutely confident you will not be sorry :-)

Amazing food. Great service
Service was great. I bit off more than I could handle with the spiciest seasoning. Thankfully the owner saw me struggling and asked if I would like him make it less spicy. He added one of the lower seasonings to it and it was great. Still very spicy but flavor was great. My server was also very nice and helpful. It is a small space and a small menu, but imagine that helps with a consistent delicious product.
Thank you!

Looks can be deceiving. Upon first entering we were very reluctant to stay, however, we were greeted so friendly we would have felt awkward leaving. Not big or fancy but the seafood boil was absolutely delicious. We had a very generous portion of snow crabs legs, shrimp and crawfish along with the corn and potatoes in a spicy garlic butter sauce. We liked it a tad spicier than it was but the cook/waitress was quick to offer seasoning that hit the spot. The food was served piping hot and the wait time was great for delicious cooked to order meal. If you’re looking for a fancy evening out, this is not your place. But if you want good seafood boil in the Midwest, Shakin’ Shellfish is a great place to go.

We got the dish called whole crew with the black Magick seasonin and the spice was right on.
It's worth trying and if you love seafood I'll tell ya these people actually know how to season shell fish.
