Every time I'm on the island I eat here. I get the Farfalle Alfredo with chicken. Everyone else gets it with shrimp and they love it. My friends get the Rice Stix (spicy) and the Conchigli. All the food we've tried and my family/friends have tried has always been on point including the service. They do get busy and it is small. Try to go when they first open. You can eat inside or outside.
Seated right away. Friendly staff. Good house Cabernet. Expensive food. Mango ceviche tasty but mostly mango and red onion, not much shrimp for the price. Fish tacos came with very black avocado, they brought fresh right away, which was almost worse…why not originally? 10 Grilled shrimp for $30 were good says hubby. They gave me a complimentary dessert for the black avocado.
Shell's has the best food and the least pretentiousatmosphere we've ever experienced in Port Aransis. Their menu is not the standard menu of most places either. Think high end style chef creations at reasonable prices in your favorite small cafe. I had the Seared Mahi Mahi w/ key lime aoli and mixed veggies (& not the soggy squash and zucchini offered everywhere else we ate) that was fresh and divine! We will eat at Shell's everytime we visit Port Aransis.
