On The Half Shell Reviews
Love the food and desert would definitely go again.
We are Tuesday regulars at On The Half Shell because of Mindy Brignac (manager/server) and The Eddie Smith Band! We only go if we know Mindy is there because her service is impeccable plus she’s a blast to be around! She goes out of her way to make your dining experience the best! The music on Tuesday night is incredible! Love the Eddie Smith Band!!
One of the best under rated restaurants in Louisiana. I’ve been eating here for a very long time and don’t understand the review numbers because they’re food and service is incredibly good and I’ve ate at all of the top places in Louisiana

On The Half Shell is a relaxed bar and grill that provides a casual dining experience. The restaurant is well known for its delicious seafood dishes, including the popular Half Shell Seafood platter, which features blackened catfish, grilled oysters, and deep-fried crab cake. The crispy artichoke hearts are also highly recommended, served with a perfect mix of tart and robust flavors. The staff is friendly and attentive, making sure drinks are always full and tables are clear. Guests can choose between a more private side for a quieter scene or a lively side with live music, such as the Eddie Smith Band on Tuesday nights, which is always enjoyable. The location is a bit tucked away behind a gas station but offers a spacious interior. Despite sometimes getting crowded, service remains prompt and the food consistently good. Many regulars love the atmosphere and the exceptional service, with staff members like Mindy going out of their way to improve the dining experience. The restaurant offers reasonable prices and ample parking, making it a great choice for those seeking a casual, authentic dining experience with a variety of options including grilled, blackened, or fried dishes, sides, salads, soups, and desserts.
