Love this restaurant. The best seafood bought fresh daily. Creative chef for rich flavors. Outdoor seating is beautiful and feels very European in the best of ways! Owner is fantastic!

No mocktail options, asked for sparkling water with lemon but they forgot the lemon, ordered truffle fries but received fingerling potatoes

We always have a great meal here! We enjoyed the burrata, Caesar salad, and truffle fries. Both the tuna and halibut entrees were delicious! The staff is very friendly and attentive. There was a minor mix-up in the kitchen so our food all came out together, but they were very nice about it. We also loved the tiramisu and lava cake desserts. We highly recommend The Shell!

Soft shell crab in tomato sauce was excellent as were the oysters and lobster salad. We love coming to The Shell!

I wish I had better words to describe what makes this place special. You can enjoy superb food without excessive prices. Superb employee assistance. The spotless condition and trendy design exceeded my expectations. The value here justifies every dollar.

If I'm ever in this area again, I'll make sure to return to The Shell Seafood Kitchen & Bar. The food is pretty consistent and standard here at The Shell Seafood Kitchen & Bar. I would definitely come back if I am in the area. The team is super friendly and energetic and gave us top notch service throughout the night!

2. Dozen East Oysters.
3. Sides: asparagus and truffle fries
4. Lava cake.
5. White wine.

Just first rate. Fish and chips is real filets not mystery mash. (My wife is a fish and chips enthusiast. Not that many measure up) Oysters are wonderfully fresh, steeped in brine. Service is quick and efficient. We love it.

Update: another enjoyable visit last night. Everyone is so very nice. But: the music was way too loud. It noticeably diminished the otherwise very pleasant outdoor experience.

This is a great restaurant. I love the fresh oysters and my wife double orders the fish and chips. I'm eager to try the paella. Only problem at our last visit was far too loud music on the outdoor patio.

Outstanding service! Food was delicious and they were ever so accommodating by letting me create my own dish with their squid ink pasta. Striped bass special was great, as was tuna tartare. My party of 4 couldn't have been more satisfied. Thanks for a great dining experience.

Always a wonderful time - this has become our new favorite ‘go-to' place. Look no further!!
