Stopped by on a rainy, Sunday Christmas Eve, right after opening. Even though we had special requests the service was great and they went over and above to make our experience memorable. Thank you to all the staff working on Christmas Eve!

Oh my goodness my husband and I have been to the Arlington location many times. It was my first time going to this location. My server Nyles was amazing he took service with a smile to a new level. This tall dark and handsome young man not only made sure all our food came out hot and quickly he answered all my questions regarding my allergens and was very helpful. Will come again.

I loved visiting Shell Shack! Our service was great and we liked the ambiance. Our food did come out wrong, but the manager Nigel was very quick to fix the problem and have his chefs cook us our new meals! He was also very nice and patient with us. We will definitely be coming back to eat at Shell Shack and hopefully see Nigel again!

My friend and I have marked Shell Shack as our "go to" to treat ourselves for amazing food! My favorite are the Cajun Dungeness crab. I've always received great service from the servers and the staff are always so friendly. The managers come around each table to greet the guests and make them feel welcome. Looking forward to coming back soon! Also, treat yourself to a nice green tea shot!

The service was incredible. We were taken care of by Lorenzo and Diamond. We got the mild garlic VIP boil and it was a 10/10. SO flavorful with a little kick to it. This was my first time and I was definitely impressed. Coming back again soon.
