Our order was ready in about 10 minutes, which was perfect. The portion size was larger than I expected, and that was a nice surprise. The cole slaw and homemade pickles were a good addition. My teens loved the heat on the shrimp, but they were a little spicy for my littlest kiddo, who couldn't have cared less because she was busy eating all of the hush puppies.

I went to this place back at the end of August…read more I had the shrimp po' boy and added the seasoned fries. The po' boy was decent, particularly for Tampa Bay, but was anything to rave about. And the seasoned fries were so coveted with Lowry'a that they were almost inedible. The saltiness was by far overpowering and really dampened the meal. Given the price of the meal, I was all that impressed and wouldn't consider the price equivalent to the food level.

I was expecting it to be a decent sized restaurant. I was mistaken. It was very small. It reminded me of an old Chinese food restaurant. The 4 booths that were there to eat in house were either taken or just not cleaned yet. We decided to take our food to go. They had a special for boil combos B & C for $39.99. That is what we decided to get. The food smelled so good from the ride home, to when we opened it. We dumped all of the contents into a huge bowl. It was decent sized portions. The dummy crab seasoning was garlicky and delicious!! There was so much seafood. We couldn't finish it all that night. We did have the rest for dinner the next night. It was still so tasty!! The best part about it was that neither of us got sick the next day. We were worried. Previously we both got sick on a seafood boil from a different restaurant. This was also in a different state. Needless to say, we will be getting seafood from dummy Crabby again!!

I ordered the 6 piece fried oysters with 10 shrimp meal while my wife had the salmon with rice. We also added a side of whiting which included 3 decent size pieces. We both were surprised how good the food was, it looked overly seasoned but it was just about right. My only issue was that mine had a little too much batter which diminished the taste a bit. So if you order anything fried then I'd request lightly battered. Other than that the prices were a tad bit much but it was close. Neither of these reasons would discourage us from dining here again, but they did cause the score to be a 3 instead of a 4. I recommend this business

Located on the corner of W Cleveland Street & S Dale Marbry Highway, in the Bon Air Neighborhood, Shells Seafood is very easy to get to. A talk sign that towers over the restaurant can be seen from hundreds of feet away while driving; it's hard to miss the sign. Plenty of parking in the stalls on the property as well as neighborhood parking and local stores adjacent parking spots. Once inside, you are greeted by the cute looking host at the nicely decorated front reception. She seats you immediately to a an open floor spacing with two sides of seating and a centralized semi-circle bar area. There are roughly over 30 tables and plenty of room to accommodate small to larger. The cajun boil here is fabulous! Loved every minute of it.

The fish, alligator bites, chicken - doesn't matter what protein it is - all taste fresh and delicious. On this visit, we tried the soft shell crab and couldn't get enough! The combination of spices and ingredients were well paired. Even our salad was on point. Adding 4 stars because although the food was great, the drinks selection was not on the same level. If you're not a drinker, the mocktail I tried was also average (a bit on the sweeter side), so be sure to ask your server for recommendations.

We were the first customers and the inside is small but clean and cozy. Staff was friendly. We ordered the snow crab feast and a calamari appetizer. The calamari was ok it wasn't seasoned. The snow crab feast came with coleslaw, corn, potatoes, and 4 pieces of crab leg sections. It was good but not great, the pieces didn't come out of the shell very easily and the pieces we did get out were pretty small, but we enjoyed the flavor and the experience very much.
