"The restaurant was hopping on our first visit to Shell Shack. My husband and I shared a bowl of the chicken and sausage gumbo, which was really good. After, I had grilled shrimp and hush puppies. The grilled shrimp doesn't come with any sides, so those must be ordered ala carte. The hush puppies were good, but the grilled shrimp was a huge disappointment. They were grilled with the shells on, which made the shells difficult to remove. The shrimp were large, but VERY tough. My husband ordered The Boss, which is fried catfish, shrimp, hush puppies, and fries. The catfish wasn't that good, had the real fishy dirt taste that catfish sometimes has. The shrimp were large, fried with a flour batter, no cornmeal, and once again, very tough. Although our meal was disappointing, we had THE BEST SERVER, Joshua, which is the only reason for the 4 stars. He was personable, charming, and attentive. We never had to ask for drink refills or anything, as he was on the ball! I don't see us ever returning to Shell Shack since there are much better seafood restaurants around, but it was nice to try out a new place."
