    Shell Shack is a Mexico Beach classic, even older than I am which I know because I spent many days there as a young child being babysat by the family owners and hanging out in the shop and home. When I visit now, I have to stop by still, though everything has changed. But it's still the best shrimp you'll find, and take a tub of the fish dip too. There are also shell gifts and fun finds, and it's a must stop for the true Mexico Beach.

    First time staying in Mexico beach and stayed for 8 days. We went to shell shack 4 times during our stay and it was phenomenal! Nick helped us out every time and told us how much we needed (just my boyfriend and I) and how to prepare it. They also steamed some snow crab, oysters and shrimp for us with different seasonings. Steaming only took about 20 mins even on their busiest night and it went by even quicker as we got to browse the store. Golden tile and snapper were delicious. We will definitely be back next year!!!

    Great steamed shrimp! Price is the best you'll find around too! Plenty of choices for spice level as well. If you are coming off of the beach, this is your lunch spot!

    Was on vacation in Mexico Beach with my sister and stopped at the Shell Shack to check it out . The owners are amazing . I think it's a Mother and son running their store working hard . They have all kinds of fresh seafood, good information about their products.. They also have a amazing gift shop !!! Everything was at least $10 less than other stores.. Now that made me smile. Definitely looking forward to go back and find some more treasures...

    Snow crab legs, steamed with Slap Ya Mama seasoning

    We got snow crab legs steamed with Slap Ya Mama seasoning and the small shrimp steamed with Old Bay seasoning. Service was excellent, and he didn't mind our questions. Crab legs were so good and the shrimp was delicious! Tender, not over cooked, and perfectly seasoned. We stayed across the street, so transporting the food back to where we were staying was no problem. Will probably buy some more shrimp before we leave!

    A must stop shop when visiting Mexico Beach, FL. They have fresh seafood, great selection of souvenirs and so much character in this one shop. Family owned and operated.

    Really cool place with a good selection of seafood. Definitely worth a visit just to mess around, buy seafood, or get some fishing bait.

    Hunt's on St. Joe Bay is definitely a place I would include on every visit to Port St. Joe…read more We started with blackened gator tail and grilled crab cakes. The gator was excellent--somewhere between chicken and steak in flavor and texture. The crab cakes had great texture and flavor, although they leaned slightly salty for my taste. My grilled red snapper po'boy was a big sandwich with plenty of toppings and a generous portion of red snapper. I added some of the remoulade served with the crab cakes, and it went beautifully with the sandwich. The grilled vegetables were better than what I receive at most restaurants. They had great flavor, were not overcooked, and included a lovely variety. The menu notes that its Gulf seafood is provided by Greg Abrams Seafood. Customers should also know that menu prices reflect cash payment and an additional 3% is charged for card use. Hunt's Oyster Bar on St. Joe Bay 1937 State Road 30A Port St. Joe, FL 32456

    Awful, loud, drunken customer. Not a family place, overpriced and small portions. Cussing by…read morecustomers, a lot of drunk people. Food was average, waitstaff poor and under trained, Always reching over us and didnt even know who ordered what. If you want a nice family dinner find another resturant, Average food, horrible wait staff and the loudest place we have ever eaten at.

    Hunt's Oyster Bar - Key Lime cheesecake was smooth and a distinct key lime flavor that wasn't overpowering with a flavorful graham cracker crust.
