    Let me the start review with the quality of the seafood...it's really good considering it's Fort Worth. We opted for 2lbs of the Snow Queen Crab Legs and a 1lb of shrimp with a couple boiled eggs, corn and broccoli. The Broccoli was cooked to mush. The eggs were OK as was the corn. The issue is the Cajun seasoning. It's horrible. I can't describe it other than saying it's really bad and greasy. In fact, the bottom was swimming in oil...what ever Cajun seasoning used is overpowering and unlike anything I've ever tasted...and I'm in and out of Louisiana all the time. Most boils the seasoning makes the boil and that's the case here.

    Overpriced and underwhelming to say the least. 1 pound of crawfish with no sides for $10? If you know anything about crawfish, that isn't much. I should have just gone to Razzoo's across the street, but was trying to support a local restaurant. The platters are even laughably expensive, the cheapest being $39.99 and it's for 1! I was even charged for my salad dressing on my $4 side salad. I asked the waitress and she said "oh it must be because you got the kitchen sink ranch" and didn't bother to check. The menu lists all the dressings together next to the salads with no extra cost. I chose not to make a big deal over 75 cents, but I won't be back.

    Mussels,  Snow Crab, potatoes, sausage, corn

    *Service- 10/10 *Food- 8/10 , would love to try more on the menu *Ambiance- 7.5/10 during the day, would love to go during evening/night

    Coconut shrimp and catfish.

    Food was ok. Nothing to rave about. Hushpoppies were mushy. Service...she was all over the place. Ambiance...Sounds like a school cafeteria. Too busy for me . Was not comfortable at all. TBH ; I just wanted to hurry up and get out of they're way . I do not recommend this chaos. I rate it a -1 so I would be allowed to post this review.

    Best server - Megan!

    Megan went above and beyond to make my kiddos birthday a success! She was friendly, funny, and patient on a busy Friday night. We have always loved Shell Shack but now we love it even more. Thanks, Megan!

    VIP Boil

    Excellent food and service! The VIP seafood boil and jalapeño hushpuppies were delicious. We loved the music selection and volume as we dined with friends. We will be back.

    New to the Alliance Airport/Sendera Ranch area and had my 13 year old granddaughter visiting. Weather was terrible but she wanted shrimp so per yelps suggestion we decided on Shell Shack. Great choice! Excellent service, enjoyable, family friendly atmosphere and generous portions! They offer a good variety of menu items and reasonably priced! Recommend for sure and will be dining here again!

There's not a bad seat in the house, where you can't see what's going in so definitely a plus. Food was okay. They hit the mark on their appetizers! We all enjoyed the waffle cheese fries, mozzarella logs, & boudin balls. My friends had the lemon butter chicken, both said the flavor was good but that the chicken was a bit dry, they did enjoy the cheese corn grits. Pasta alfredeaux, my friend thought it could use more seasoning. I had the cajundilla, it's a heavy entree. There's a lot of flavors in there but they needed more than just onions to bring some freshness to it. I did enjoy the red beans & rice that they came with. Seemed like the sides were better than the main part of each entrée. Cleanliness 4/5, nothing is ever going to be perfect but the restroom needed more attention than what it had been given & our seats where kinda "eh" upon being seated. Staff & service, 5/5. Excellent! Shantiva was our waitress. She was attentive, polite, patient, & was knowledgeable about the menu. Great personality! Really any staff member we interacted with was super nice including the hostess & the servers that helped being our food out. Easy to pay by QR code, very convenient. Prices are fair, with lots to choose from on the menu. Overall a good experience!

We asked for the check, and was told there was a "corporate situation" where we had to leave a review to receive the bill. I couldn't believe it, so I repeated, "we have to leave a review just to get the bill???" The answer was yes. Our bill was being held hostage. We were stunned as our waiter told us we'd "get points for reviewing" (not restaurant points btw, these are Google points) and pressured us to scan the QR code and stood there watching to make sure we had put 5 stars on everything. When he saw I was hesitant to do so, he said just one of us could do the review to get the bill. This is unbelievable business practice and extremely uncomfortable. For this reason alone, I cannot recommend this establishment and will not be returning.

    Buffalo Wild Wings is a restaurant chain that provides a great gameday atmosphere. Honestly, I…read moredon't come here for the food (especially the wings), but if I want to enjoy a game with a crowd BW3 makes my list. My Overall Rating - 4 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Return) Atmosphere - Buffalo Wild Wings leans into the sports theme pretty heavily. There are TVs all over the walls. If you're looking to watch a game, there's a 90% chance it will be on TV. If it's not, just ask. I made my visit during the World Cup and NBA Finals, and our section was pretty full. Speaking of which, BW3 appears to have one section with bar height seats and tables and another is standard height. 1 Star. Service - I read many of the 1 Star Reviews, and they all complained about the service, but I've never had bad service here. Upon entering, the host/hostess asked how many were in our party and then directed us to a seat with a perfect view of the game. Then we met our server, who was very friendly, attentive, and always smiling. We felt very welcome and never had any issues with getting help, even as our section was getting crowded due to the NBA Finals on TV. 2 Stars. Food - Ok, I don't like the food here. I come for the atmosphere, the wings are over sauced, and all the appetizers are fried. That being said, their Cheesesteak was decent (cheese + beef always a good combo), and the toasted roll held it all together, but it was the only thing that was good. Even the desserts couldn't wash away the taste from everything else. Wings may be in the name, but I'm not a fan. No Stars. Will I Return? - Yes. I don't come here for the food. BW3's great for watching sports and cheering for (or against) the teams on TV. It's a fun experience and is cheaper than going to the game in person. Playoffs are fun and I'm betting so is the World Cup. 1 Star.

For an appetizer, we enjoyed the ceviche along with the complimentary chips and salsa. One of the best parts of having a cocktail and appetizer here is the authenticity of the flavors. The margaritas were made with fresh ingredients instead of syrupy mixes, which made a huge difference. The Ceviche ($14) was made with pez dorado (mahi-mahi), tomato, lime, jalapeños, onion, and avocado. The lime really enhanced the freshness of the mahi-mahi, making this late lunch one I'd happily have again. I'm excited to try out more of the menu! It was also great to learn that this is a family-owned business that takes pride in providing excellent service and high-quality food. We'll definitely be back!
