Had such a great experience at Shell Shack. The food was excellent, fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you hope for when you come craving seafood on Greenville. The service was amazing, too. Our waitress Key took wonderful care of us, was friendly, attentive, and made the whole meal even better. Only tiny request from a loyal Dallas diner and Realtor who is always bringing clients out to celebrate closings... please add Coke Zero to the drink options. Then it would be absolutely perfect. We will definitely be back and asking for Key again. read more

This was a mixed experience. The service was great our server was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. The atmosphere was good and what you'd expect from a seafood boil spot. As for the food, mine (crab and clams) tasted good, and the seasoning was solid. My boyfriend ordered crawfish and shrimp, and while the shrimp were good, he felt the crawfish had an odd, mushy texture that was off-putting. Unfortunately, we both ended up feeling pretty sick afterward (I had stomach issues, and he got sick vomiting multiple times within an hour), which is why I can't rate this higher. I'd advise anyone looking for seafood boil to be weary and definitely trust the 3 star rating this place has... read more

Went to Shell Shack on a Tuesday afternoon! Overall the crawfish was pretty good too be toward the end of the season! They sauce was really good and not too oily. The service was kind of slow for me to be the only one in there. However the space was nice and clean overall! read more

Came in Mother's Day for an early lunch and the service was fast and friendly! We had oysters on the half shell and the boil mild with the kitchen sink seasoning. We also added crawfish for a great price. We could have gone up a level on the spice as there was not really any heat to the mild, but the flavor was good. This is a fun little spot with great music & good food we will be back for a dinner next time! read more

After a four hour car ride back to Dallas. Shell Shack was a must try, I love a boil, messy and delish. We ordered the VIP kitchen sink, the spice level was perfect. The sausage was nice and juicy and full of flavor, the shrimp perfect in portion. The corn and potatoes are my favorite part. I added my own hard boiled eggs and boy was the sauce perfectly flavored. Also the temperature was perfect I love my food boiling hot. Can't wait to order again. read more

The restaurant was ok. The food was ok. The drinks were ok. We were celebrating my sister and I birthdays!! I'm on the fence if I would return. Nothing bad to say. read more

Food was hit or miss for most of the items. Came in the late evening after some friends from Arkansas wanted something late night. Sfuzzi's was closed so we came here and the food was solid for what we expected. Garlicky mussels were great. The white wine and butter were stellar. Fried shrimp and oysters; maybe a bit of salt to the batter would help. Crawfish were on the bland side. If it didn't have seasoning then there was no flavor, there were tons of small dead ones so I just tossed them. Service was great. Bartender would super attentive and nice. Would we come again? Up in the air. read more

Can't judge the food as we went there today (Saturday) at 11:45 am and you are REQUIRED to Valet your car and pay $6 to go inside. Called the restaurant and after 2 minutes of voice prompts I get asked to leave a voice mail because no one answers the phone. AVOID this place. read more

The place was dirty and the food made us sick. I would rate it lower than 1 if possible. We are never going back.

On an unassuming Sunday this past weekend we decided to give Shell Shack a try for a hankering of crab boil that I had. To start we ordered the side garden salad that was surprisingly big enough for two to graze on. We also ordered as an appetizer the Allegator Tendies...yum!. For my entree I decided on the 1 lb Crab boil with all of the fixings sausage, boiled eggs, corn on the cobb...I was in heaven, for the sauce I decided on the 'Kitchen sink medium. The Mr. ordered the same substituting the crab for lobster. We had a great experience our waiter was amazing and attentive; we were able to get a great table in front of the large flat screen t.v. to watch the game. We will definitely be back! read more

This place has gone downhill. The last few time I ordered crab legs from here, they are still charging the same price but the quality of the crab legs shrunken. They also raise the Dungeness crab from over $20 more. It's a shame this was once a dependable place for me no longer is. read more

LOVED IT! It was new to us so we didn't know what to think. Order kitchen sink boil, and get the kitchen sink ranch too with the hush puppies. Also, get the shell shack mama to drink! Very fun and the waitstaff were very sweet! read more

My sister had a craving for some seafood so she brought me here to pick up a to go order since she wasn't in the mood for human contact. We ordered the VIP (2 Clusters of Snow Crab & 1lb. of Boiled Shrimp. Served with 2 Pieces of Corn, 3 Potatoes & 3 Grilled Sausage). They were nice enough to let us exchange the sausage for more corn and potatoes since we don't eat red meat. We also got the garlic sauce with our bag and it was definitely delicious and worth the effort. I actually saw a lot of other menu items that caught my attention and gave me reason to come back again on my next trip to Dallas since I'm here pretty often. I might even sit inside this time if my sister is motivated to deal with humanity the next time around lol. read more

Yummy, yummy, yummy. Such an amazing experience. The food was delicious. I recommend the kitchen sink sauce and don't wear your best suit, because it can get messy. Enjoy. read more

Me and my husband decided to try a new sea food boil place ...service was amazing but the food was not good at all crawfish was falling apart and was super mushy as well is to having a very very bitter taste the sausage was not good at all the crab had very very little meat and tasted super salty the shrimp was the only thing edible ....with just me and my husband we paid 100$+ for such a little amount after leaving we both ended up very very sick with vomiting as well as stomach issues :( read more

I was just in here terrible I won't be back. The fried catfish tasted rubbery . The mvp Boil bag was salty as hell definitely fell off

Just left Shell Shack and can confirm it HIT. I am so glad the Diablo heat level is back, please never take it away again. We got a pound of shrimp kitchen sink, diablo. It was perfect proportion of seasoning and not too oily at all this time. Got 6 lemon pepper wings extra crispy and they were delicious!! I can't ever come here without the buffalo chicken sandwhich idk it hits different with the diablo buffalo sauce as well. We get all of these and share everything, it really is the best. I also love that they play reggae now. Cause duh seafood and reggae just go hand in hand. I do, however, miss the seasoned shaken fries that go with the buffalo chicken sandwhich, though. Also don't understand why there's valet when the parking lot is right there next to the building. Anyway, love you shell shack. Thanks for a great dinner. read more

Mikayla was amazing tonight! Third time coming by for her! Attentive, quick, always with a smile. We love her! Food is great, came quick and correct for us tonight. read more

Had the most amazing service on 12/1. Waiter has a big future in the industry, sat at the back, high tables. Food as great as well.

this was hands down the WORST seafood boil I've ever had. the sauce is tasteless, the sausage is gross. I saw the reviews but people were complaining about service a lot. since I ordered via uber eats, I thought let me try. $111+ for disgusting seafood. it is my first and my last time eating here. read more

A few colleagues and I decided to try this place for the first time, I order my seafood "Diablo"... it was not spicy...the server/bartender had an bad energy like if she was annoyed, If it wasn't for "Nicki" I would give a 1 star rating...Nicki went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied with our beverages and food...I was totally amazed by her hospitality! Great job Nicki!!! read more

Let me start off by saying I've been goin to this location since 2018 and Last night was one of the worst experiences I've had. Immediately upon sitting down I noticed that it was a bit warm and a bit stuffy inside almost like there wasn't any air circulating . The bartender came took our drink out while we looked over the menu . We ordered 3 lemon drop shots and my friend ordered an adult strawberry lemonade. Not too long after the drinks were brought out . Instead of telling us we don't have lemon drop shots we were just given Mexican candy shot without notice and the adults lemonade not the limeade was bitter! We wait for 30 minutes while other table were sat and serviced , waiting on our server to return multiple other servers checked on tables around use even looked in our direction with a WORD! Once our server/ the bartender did finally come check on us we placed our orders and he turned around so fast we even have time to Ask FOR WATER, literally had to yell after him even someone from the next table called after him with no luck . After waiting another 15 minutes he brought the appetizers my friend ordered French fries and the other crab tots . The crab tots were nasty clearly frozen and had a fishy smell the portion of fries wasn't enough for a child to eat. Less than 10 minutes after our food came out we all got the mvp same flavor but different add ons . We asked twice to confirm we were given the right bags just to open them and have to switch them because we had one another's food . Before we could even finished the server who we had spent all night chasing down came by with the card reader for us to PAY ! We still had our gloves and bibs on so Ig he decided to come back later . The only reason my friend stayed through all the issues was because to top off it was my birthday and as I mentioned before I been a long time patron . So I recommend this location and probably won't be returning. read more

I went to this place on outing. It was quite an experience. I really enjoyed watching people crack , pull, break, such . It was awesome scene. It takes a while to get an order in . But it was worth the wait . To listen to music and people watch. Lots of boiled seafood. Looked like Baton Rouge Style boil. So go check them out. Food plentiful shrimp large. Fish nicely seasoned . I need coupling because it is a great game watching or Friday date night. read more
