My wife and I went there during the day on a Saturday there was a band playing we heard about, so we got seated immediately and sat right near where they were playing, and we loved that. The atmosphere was awesome. The food tasted really good, however there wasn't enough of it and I left hungry. My wife enjoyed her burger. Because of the crowd it took a good while for the server to get back to us, but she was a sweetheart, and we understood because of the crowd.

I had a terrible experience at Shuckin’ Shack and will not be returning. My friends and I were waiting at the bar for the rest of our group to arrive so we could get a table, and the entire time, two employees—one with blonde hair and another with darker skin—were just standing behind the bar talking badly about people. It was incredibly unprofessional and uncomfortable to witness. If you hate your job that much, why even work here?
Once we were finally seated, our waitress, Marianna, took forever to even acknowledge us. When she did, she had an attitude and looked annoyed, like she didn’t want to be there. The service was slow, and the whole experience left a bad taste in my mouth. I hope the owner takes a hard look at what’s going on in this place because this level of unprofessionalism is unacceptable. I won’t be coming back.

Bartender with her crooked hat was awesome and full of life. Only thing that ruined the atmosphere was the loud and obnoxious server complaining about two guests. Very unprofessional. She needs to be retrained on her inside voice and how it effects the other paying customers. Clam Chowder was amazing!

The food was subpar for the pricepoint we paid during Happy Hour time. My husband’s oysters did not taste nor look fresh. I had steamed shrimp that were tasteless even with seasoning. They were not a sweet tasting shrimp that i am used to when purchasing and preparing local bought fresh shrimp.
Service was very poor. I ordered unsweetened iced tea had to wait and ask for the sweetener. Then waited five minutes and had to go ask someone else for sweetener. Waitress was very distracted with conversing with other staff. When my husband ordered another drink she went back to conversing with staff. After waiting i finally had to walk behind the counter to ask her for the drink. She did apologize and commented that this was the end of her shift. Servers need training. The table placed beside us had to go and ask for their server to come for their order after waiting and waiting to order. The restaurant had four tables seated, it was not busy.
Finally the Music being played did not fit nor suit the atmosphere nor the majority of patrons present at that time during Happy Hour. The working sector was not yet present at that time of day in the restaurant.
Finally, in leaving we had parked on the side of the building where the entrance to kitchen is located. This was a very appalling site. Several dirty mops were leaned up against the wall, very cluttered cleaning supplies, very unsightly.
My parents operated a restaurant/tavern the interior always matched the exterior in appearance, cleanliness and service.
For these reasons we would not return to this establishment nor recommend others. There are too many other options in this area.

Great place for delicious tacos. Tuesdays they have $4 tacos and $4 Tito’s. The outside area is spacious and not too loud. They have a great selection of seafood as well!

Great steamed oysters. Great pepper jelly for the oysters. I've had better shrimp they could be seasoned better but it was still good. They have good kid options. Pet friendly. Decent tea. Ahi tuna starter was good.

Parking: We were able to park our RV at the grocery store which is a really close walk from the restaurant.

Kid-friendliness: My kids had the grilled mahi and the fried cod and veggies and they ate all of it. Cocktail sauce was perfect for the lids and not spicy but still had great flavor.
