Half Shells Seafood

Never been here before. After yesterday I will definitely be going back. The Parmesan crusted grouper was delicious. Not to mention the service was amazing.

Waitress was very nice. Charbroiled oysters tasted too fishy as if they just put the cheese and garlic on top and warmed them, not really charbroiled. The ahi tuna was ok, too much sauce. It took away from the tuna. Boiled seafood: didn’t get potatoes, but they did bring out one red potato later. Crabs were overcooked, soggy and rubbery. Tried it ✅

We just had our anniversary lunch at Half Shells. We have been going there for years, including when it was still named Fish City Grill. Our experience was quite good today. We started with the Oyster Nachos. If you haven't tried the Oyster Nachos, it is worth a trip just to try them. Fried oysters with remoulade sauce and fresh salsa on a tortilla chip. Outstanding! One of those unique flavor combinations that has to be tried at least once. I had a cup of crab bisque, which was unbelievable (since I had never tried it before). Didn't realize what I was missing. It is not on the regular menu anymore. Thick and creamy and a perfect blend of spices that kicks all over the palette. I had blackened catfish, which was blackened to perfection, still moist and seasoned with a kick. My wife had Coconut Crusted Shrimp with a Thai sauce off the blackboard. Very well done with the Thai sauce pairing extremely well with the savor of the coconut. The staff was very helpful and attentive. An extremely good anniversary lunch thanx to the food and the service! Highly recommend.

My son was visiting and wanted Oysters. I performed a google search and found Half Shell. The location was Cinco Ranch City Center TX. Very nice area with eateries and shopping. We looked at the menu and immediately wanted the grilled oysters. Unfortunately we arrived Sunday afternoon and the Friday thru Saturday crowd had consumed those. But we were able to order smaller oysters on the half shell that were served in lime juice with horse radish and cocktail on the side. Delicious!

The ambience and all was good plus the drinks
But the food was not seasoned, especially the dirty rice. It was slimy and spoilt
The seafood boil I had didn’t have any taste and after I asked the server, he had a big stinky attitude

Do not waste your money!!

The food was great. We had the soup of the month which was roasted jalapeño. So creamy and filling. We shared a bowl. I ordered the tacos with seasoned chips. So good. Was a nice spot to enjoy while out shopping in La Centerra.

Stopped by on saturday for the first time. Enjoyed the place ! We ordered calamari which is one of the best I’ve had -delicious thai sauce with it. My wife got the bisque n now she’s obsessed. We shared the fish tacos & they had great flavor.

The bartender was young but made solid drinks and took great care of us while it was busy. Cool place to sit because they open the window and can put on college football at the bar so the vibe, service, and food were all there. Will definitely be back!

I've been here multiple times this had to be the worst experience sitting at the bar at a restaurant that I have in awhile. The bartender from the moment I sat down seemed like she had a attitude. There were 2 couples sitting at the bar but she wasn't overwhelmed. She definitely treated them differently and not in a good way. I asked for some Tabasco. All she says was when she got a chance. Everytime I asked something from her there was always a smart remark afterwards. She would give everyone there ticket when they left it was either a pleasure or see you next time. With me on the other hand she didn't say nothing. Atleast she could have done was given me a beer in a cold glass like she did everyone else. Alex definetly needs to work on her customer service skills I'm hoping it wasn't a race thing. 76 dollars expected better.
