Great happy hour in Seattle, get it all! Great ambience as well and easy enough to find parking weeknights.
Great experience all around. Loved the ambiance, had amazing service, and many tasty bites. Came at the end of happy hour so grabbed a few things off that and the main menu. Great meal!
First time dining there. Danielle (I think that was our server's name) was FABULOUS. So kind & knowledgeable & explained how each oyster type is different, etc. Helped us decide on menu choices. Made it a very fun & unexpected evening to stumble across Half Shell! YUM!
We absolutely loved Half Shell! Everything about it was amazing — such a cozy and quiet atmosphere. And the service is warm and attentive. Every single dish we ordered was delicious! Great choices and very flavorful!
Dined here during restaurant week. Three-course meal for $50 was an exceptional value and more food than we could eat. The smoked salmon chowder was delicious, as was the dungeness crab roll. But the highlight of the meal was the plum upside down cake with lavender whip!
We tried the restaurant week menu. All three courses were excellent. Our server was Sri. She did a nice job. Great location, close to pike market. Nice ambience as well.

This was a repeat vist for us - and so tasty again! Smoked clam chowder, fish stew, oysters for $2 and more. Service was attentive and we didn't wait for the food. We'll be back for another visit.

Great happy hour with $2 oysters. Fries, wine and crab roll, were also on the happy hour specials. Nice break in the day.

I popped in for happy hour for the $2 oysters, and ended up with the dirty shucker mini-tini, 1/2 dozen Wild Cat oysters, some roasted oysters, and the mini Dungeness crab roll and it was all chef’s kiss perfection!

3 of us went for happy hour on Sat 10/18 - hard to beat $2 oysters. The shrimp patty sliders were surprisingly Asian fusion - tasted great. The crab rolls were on point too. Service team was attentive. The host was so nice and accommodating and made great impression for the place from the start. $100+ bc of drinks. Saved as fav to come back to this place.

Incredible happy hour. $2 oysters can’t be beat. The service was friendly and attentive. Our group had a great time here. The raw oysters were amazing, as well as the cooked oyster, Dungeness crab rolls, and the dip. I can’t wait to come here again.

This was a good little hole in the wall seafood restaurant. I wouldn't say anything.Sets this place apart from any other seafood.Restaurant but the quality of food and the service was on point. I will say the description of ingredients on the menu needs to be fine.Tuned a bit more for allergy purposes.But I have no complaints here
