Half Shell Oyster House

The perfect site and service met us in the parking lot. Our waitress France’ was able to educate us about everything on the menu and the food was amazing!

Francè was great!! Will definitely be coming back again. The food was absolutely delicious!

Everything was fantastic, and our server Maya was great!

I absolutely enjoyed myself this weekend here with my daughters for ours girls road trip. Nothing made it more pleasant than Francis and her pleasant way with people and knowledge of the menu. She was truly the best. Our second stopping in and finding her. We will be definitely be returning again next year is not before and to see Francis again. The Argentina shimp and New Orleans sauce was the favorite maker. Crab claw, the red on a stick. Everything was devine.

Girls Weekend with mom and sister and was serviced by Francis. She was absolutely amazing! She gave great recommendations and we tried every single option she suggested in which every one was delicious. We had the royal reds, fried crab claws, New Orleans crab claws, portobello mushrooms, seafood sampler platter with fried crawfish tails, fried oysters, chargrilled oysters, boudin ball, grilled shrimp, jalapeño hush puppies and I can’t remember it all! 😂 We also had the key lime margarita, drop of lemon martini with blueberry and pink Paloma and oh my goosh good! We hung out a while sampling every recommendation made. Francis was amazing, the food was fresh and flavorful, not to spicy, simply perfect and service overall was excellent! When I come back to Lafayette, I will definitely return.

Frances was very friendly, great customer service and very informative about the menu. She catered to everything and the food was cooked to perfection. Drinks were excellent as well . This will be my spot when I’m in town. She’s the Best !!!!

One of our favorite spots in Lafayette! The food is always delicious & the service is wonderful! Frances was our server for our Father’s Day dinner & she was great!

Waitress was 10/10. Staff was friendly. Food was bomb for lunch as we were headed home. I highly recommend the lunch menu. We look forward to coming back.

The oysters are amazing!!!! Salad was fresh, drinks kept coming! Couldn’t recommend a better place!!!

First time being here & the service is amazing, our service got us right down to business, so sweet & kind very friendly people ! Kam & Ms Heather They Are The Very Best, ask for kam upon your arrival.

I recently dined at Half Shell Oyster House and, unfortunately, my experience was far from what I expected. While the food was decent, the overall experience was severely affected by the unprofessional behavior of the manager on duty.
From the moment I had an issue with my meal, the manager, Brook, was dismissive and lacked any form of customer service skills.
Instead of listening to my concerns, she appeared uninterested and even condescending in her responses. I have been to many restaurants and know that things can go wrong, but how management handles such situations is key, and unfortunately, this was one of the worst encounters l've had.
