Amazing, fresh fish & chips. Some of the best I’ve ever had! I took my order to go and they packed it up perfectly.

We went for a walk down Locke street after eating at a local restaurant. Saw the Shuck Truck for the first time, but they were closed for an hour. Got to talking to the owner who was still there. She was kind enough to reopen just for us and shucked a dozen oysters on the half shell. Very fresh, very tasty and very nice…thank you so much!

We had a pretty decent afternoon snack at this seafood based food truck, offering up sandwiches/tacos along with some other dishes at a fair price.We tried the antishawarma along with the special of the day which was a tuna carpaccio. The antishawarma had great flavours and textures, albeit being a bit small for the price. The tuna carpaccio was a bit of a miss for us - tuna was scarce and surprisingly didn't taste all that fresh considering it was the special.Service was excellent - the chef was super friendly and prepared the dishes nicely. There's a small patio with some seating behind the truck, which made for a nice meal setting when I visited in August.Would definitely go back to try some other dishes but would maybe stick to some more classic options like tacos or po'boys.

After driving to Dundas from Toronto to be turned away at their provincial Park because it was "Fully booked", we checked into our Airbnb totally bummed and went for a walk. We stumbled upon this super cute pink truck and the Google reviews were amazing - saying they rival top seafood restaurants in Ontario! Well, they are not wrong. Not only was all the food insanely delicious (especially if you're into hot sauce, theirs is soooo delicious), the owner was also so kind and gave us a lot of hike and restaurant suggestions. His sister made the most mind blowing lime cheesecake that you have to get. We order oysters, anti-shawarma and fish tacos. You can sit there to eat as well, love the while vibe. Can't wait to come back!

Amazing and extremely fresh fish & chips! Some of the best I’ve ever had for sure. Service was also amazing, I got my order to go and they packed it up perfectly. This place has such a great vibe and the seating area out back is so cute too. 10/10 will be back soon!

It's a cute little place with the kitchen in a truck and an open-air small sitting behind. Had the shrimp sandwich and it was awesome. Also enjoyed my short conversation with the lady of the truck. Would love to try their fish and oyster offerings on my next visit to Hamilton.

I have been buying shrimp tacos from the Shuck Truck for years. I can honestly say, without reservation, that my experience with the food, service and atmosphere at the Shuck Truck has consistently been 10/10. THEY DO IT RIGHT EVERY TIME!!!

The owner is an absolute gem! He's so friendly and kind! He was able to accommodate my diet restrictions which I'm grateful for :) his food is so fresh and so reasonably priced! The back patio has a cute vibe ?

So I had a rather extraordinary experience about a week ago. On my way to "The Tempest" performance at Dundurn Castle (which was awesome BTW) I decided to grab an "Anti-Shawarma" to take with me. I went light on the sauce and asked for a side of coleslaw *in* the wrap which tasted sooooo good! After the show, I walked home and passed by The Shuck Truck again - decided to pop my head in and let them know how killer their food had been and they were so lovely and kind and shared a dessert they are currently workshopping!! (No spoilers; but it was off the charts) How incredibly cool is that?! Just made my night. Definitely catch up with them on Locke Street if you get the chance, your tummy will be glad you did :)

The Best Fish & Chips in all of Hamilton! Love the fast and friendly service. My kids love going there and enjoy the cute patio located at the back of the truck. The staff are super friendly and so phenomenal with my kids. We go there weekly to get our Seafood fix. ❤️?

Vibes-Immaculate, Service-Amazing, Food-BreathtakingEveryone is so friendly but not overly in your face which is just perfect. The fish and shrimp tacos were the best tacos I’ve ever had! Ordered them with my sister so we could try each and they split it on the plate so we got one of each❤️❤️❤️ The Fries With That is huge and worth every penny like shared it with another person and just barely managed to eat it all and it was delicious. But don’t worry bc I had it another time and couldn’t finish it, it reheats sooo well. And idk what hot sauce they had for the oysters but just thinking about it is making me drool. 10/10 cannot wait to go back again!!!
