Stopped for dinner. It was one of the cleanest Shells restaurants we’ve been in. The waitress we had was great. Friendly and friendly to the children that were with us. We were promptly seated but the meal took a while to come. Two of our party had the lobster bisque and it was very thick. They wouldn’t order it again. The fisherman’s platter was good. Not outstanding. The fish was good. The scallops were bay scallops and bay scallops and not the sea scallops which I missed when ordering. The jambalaya was amazing. The shrimp was big and sausage was tasty. The salmon was very good as well. The smothered chicken sandwich was tasty. A good portion.
Delicious food and excellent service 😋 very clean, cute decor, down to the detailed specials and drawings on the walls. We ordered the clams that came in a wine, garlic, butter sauce. It was a bit on the salty side, but still delicious. I ordered the crab cakes with the steamed veggies, red potatoes, and fried shrimp. Crab cakes were good, sweet crab, and veggies inside. I think there may have been a bit of shell as I chewed on some very crunchy bits. The flavors were solid. I loved the veggies they came perfectly seasoned. The shrimp were also very delicious. My husband's seafood stew over rice came complete with fish, scallops, shrimp, clams in a tomato sauce. Looked and smelled heavenly. My daughter got the salmon dish that came with a crab cream sauce, over asparagus. She ate every last bite, and the dish looked very appetizing as well. Overall the experience was terrific. Our server was very polite, quick to help with anything we needed, and very friendly, I happily gave her a good tip as she deserved it for the service she provided. Thankful to the whole kitchen and staff at this location 😊 highly recommend.
Always delicious. One of a very few places whee there are more clams than potatoes in the chowder. Used to bribe our daughter with a quart of their chowder if she stayed home and babysat while the adults went out.
