    2 pc catfish
    Nicole S.

    2 pc catfish dinner, 2 sides, 2 hushpuppies, $15.99 ($10.99 lunch special Mon-Fri) catfish...8/10..seasoned well, but the pcs are small candied yams...7/10...too much nutmeg, not enough sugar mac and cheese...6/10...lacks flavor, very bland hush puppies are good, but greasy to me received 2 packets of ketchup Definitely not worth $15.99, but is worth $10.99...

    Crab cakes

    This place allows dine-in and carry out. We ordered the Salmon Salad, Crab Cakes, and Catfish Basket (3 pc). The crab cakes are delicious and the sauce is great. The fish was cooked perfectly. More food than I thought it would be. I will return for more.

    Lunch Catfish Basket.

    This is by far and away my favorite spot for Catfish near my work. I'm really glad they are here. It's simple, consistent, fairly inexpensive if you get the specials, and the people are just really nice. I've never encountered anyone who wasn't overly polite and extra helpful. I think it's run by a family if I'm not mistaken. All of the staff makes an effort to make sure you like your food and have everything you might need. I just love that! It's uncommon to find these days and I really appreciate it. I would probably continue coming here even if the food was sub par. Good news for you and me is that it is not! Now, let me say this, I've only had the fried catfish each time I've been here so I cannot comment on anything else. If I have catfish on my mind, this is where I'm headed every time, especially since Southern Hands around the corner cannot remove their heads from their asses and stop sucking. Anyway, I digress.... The fish is always cooked to order and arrives hot and fresh every time. I've had some cool hush puppies before but they get a pass on that. I love the breading on the fish, it's damn tasty stuff. Fries are out of a bag but they are pretty good factory fries. I will be back.... If you know something I need to get other than the fish please message me and let me know. I would much appreciate it!

    I'm going to take a very educated guess and say the reason they don't have as many reviews as they should is because a lot of people simply don't yelp down here! Why do I say that, I called in my order and did pick up and I waited for my food maybe 3 mins max and there were SOOOOO many people coming in and out for to go orders I literally stopped counting!!! And they weren't coming for one plate like me, the average was 3 plates per pickup MINIMUM!! Most were well over that. Anywho, yes yes and DO YOU SHIP!! I got the seafood platter because I wanted to try a little bit of everything and boy super happy about it. Platter comes with catfish, shrimp, oysters, hush puppies and 2 sides. I got Mac and cheese and baked beans. Every single item tasted DIFFERENT so what that translates to is they don't use the same grease for fish that they use for shrimp and etc!! Their oil is clean and you can actually taste the food. Catfish was just good ol catfish. Crispy, goodness and the tartar sauce was kinda sweet, homemade and soooo good. Shrimp was soooo good and meaty! Cocktail sauce for shrimp perfect! Wasn't a fan of the oysters but I've NEVER had oysters so not sure what their suppose to taste like. Mac and cheese is seasoned with pepper and I hate seasoned Mac and cheese but hubby basically licked the bowl because that's his preference. Baked beans were good. Just a very solid GREAT place For all things fish and Seafood! The inside is huge and the customer service is southern style down-home good ole love from the so

    Always professional. Good service with good food. I'm having the seafood platter. It has everything for a taste bud. Catfish, oysters, crab cakes and don't forget the shrimp. TVs to watch while eating. Had to wait a minute but it's worth it. It's cooked fresh

    My first time coming in and can you say more than enough food I ordered the 3 piece filets with 2 sides and they were the 3 biggest filets I've ever enjoyed the food was very good I really enjoyed it will be making a return visit

    Catfish plate - Forgot to take a pic before I took it out of the Togo box and already took a few bites
    Shayla S.

    Enjoyed our meal. Purchased a couple of catfish plates. We thought we were getting the 7.99 dinner special but they told us once we went in to pay those only come with one side. I will do that next time. Both plates had about 5 catfish pieces.

    The fish and oyster was amazing. However the rice was a little undercooked for me and the spinach…read morewasn't creamy. My server was very nice and friendly

    How in the gash darn hell have I not written a review for The Half Shell Memphis?!?!?…read more I've been coming here since birth. Ok. Maybe not that long. Most definitely since I can remember. My parents had the blandest worst taste for food, so I was a depraved child as far as flavor was concerned. We ate at very blah places and my Mom was the pickiest person in the world, but.... She loved this fried shrimp! So we came here often. I grew up in Parkway Village so we were always nearby. Fast forward to my Yelp days. My first CM, Joelle had a part ownership of this place when I first started Yelping. We even had her going away party here when Yelp ruined the Memphis Elite Program with part time CM's for our city. She was part owner and we hung out there so it seemed inappropriate to write a review. Besides, I knew Danny pretty well too and that was also a conflict. Nowadays it's been bought by the folks that turned Forrest Hill Grill around. They have closed the location on Winchester (which I called years ago) and opened up in Germantown on Poplar. I have no idea who these people are so I guess it's time. I have not been to the new one, but I have seen the menu. I do not have any intentions of rushing to try it. Seems as if they butchered the whole dang menu. Anywho.... I still like this one. It's pretty run down, but the food is still good. It's still the original menu with all the treats. They have a freaking Monte Cristo sandwich folks! I know of less than five places left that still serve them. When is the last time you saw a twice baked potato? Here it is!! They still have a changing weekly, "daily special". They still have an intense regular bar business. Good luck getting a seat at the bar at any given time. Best of all they still have those damn tasty fried shrimp! Oh they are so good! The best ever man. The sauces they serve are great. I've been up and down the menu and it's almost always great. Oysters are some of the best charbroiled that there are anywhere in Shelby County. Long live OG Half Shell! Please never change! '25 - 44/111
