    Love Shell Shack and everything about them. Sitting here eating their Fish Dip made fresh every Thursday and it is time best thing EVER! There's too much more to say.. just the best, best best! Love ya'll!

    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...

    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.

    Killer Seafood - Grilled shrimp po'boy

    Wanted to drive to Mexico Beach from Panama City Beach just to find a quieter beach for a few hours…read more(PCB is Spring Break madness y'all!) Checked Yelp for a good lunch spot suggestion and this was it! I don't do food trucks often (I really should!) And when I pulled in I realized I made a great decision. A line of about 10 people in front of me. It moved quickly. Big menu of things like fish tacos, shrimp po'boys, and fish platters, etc. yummy sides or coleslaw and hush puppies. I was excited. Put in my order, turned around and there's like 20 people behind me. Again, It's like a smooth running machine. I stood near a lady from Georgia who said she saw this place on TikTok. My food came in maybe 15 min. I took it to my car and pulled into a beach view spot across the road. Dinner with a view! I got the tuna tacos with hush puppies and the grilled shrimp po'boy. I'll say, I didn't care for the cheese on the tacos. I think it really needs a pico or salsa of some sort. I ended up just eating the tuna pieces and dipping them in the sauce that I think was meant for the hush puppies. Maybe it was sauce for the tacos. Wasn't sure. On to the sandwich. Really good bread. Tons of shrimp. I wanted a bit more sauce though. I got coleslaw with it. I wasn't given a fork. I guess there was a place to get that. But I did order food To Go. Thought a fork would be added. Based on its popularity, and my food being pretty tasty, I say go get ya some!

    For it being a food truck I was surprised that Killer Seafood has some of the best seafood I have…read morehad in the area. Before the hurricane they had a dine in restaurant which I hope they get back one day. They do have an outdoor seating area which is covered, but the heat and wind here can be brutal. I have dropped by for lunch a couple of times and my last visit I got the shrimp po-boy which was amazing. I try something different each time, so next time I look forward to trying the gator bites and maybe a fish sandwich.
