We visited this restaurant yesterday for dinner. All the seafood places we had planned to go to were closed, but this restaurant was still open. The food was incredible, and the service and attention of Crystal were exceptional. She made sure we were having a great time and went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful experience. We definitely plan to return to this place in the future.
Came here for the first time, and my experience was so nice. Emily did such an amazing job with her recommendations and overall service. Food was so good, I’ll definitely be back!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Shell Shack Mesquite has become one of my go‑to spots, and a big reason for that is MaKenna King. She’s the kind of bartender every restaurant wishes they had — friendly, attentive, and genuinely great at making people feel welcome. Makenna King remembers guests, keeps the energy positive, and handles a busy bar with total professionalism. Her drink recommendations are always on point, and she checks in often without ever being overbearing. It’s rare to find someone who can balance speed, personality, and great service the way she does. If you’re stopping by Shell Shack Mesquite, do yourself a favor and grab a seat at the bar. You won’t be disappointed.
I took a date here to eat and it was amazing. They stayed open till 1am, the night we went. The place is clean everybody was nice it was real lively they're real welcoming. The drinks were good I enjoyed my dinner and enjoyed the place very much so will be definitely go back for sure.
The Shell Shack in Mesquite was wonderful. My siblings and I all went there for one of our outings because our event was canceled. Chris, our waiter, was attentive, efficient. and kind. We did a few TikTok trends and the other servers were accommodating. The food was delicious. I have been to the Shell Shack in Arlington and it was a terrible experience. The one in Mesquite has changed my opinion.
Crystal and Chris b are some of the best servers I have ever experienced they are kind ,attentive , great at there jobs never make us feel unwanted they go above and beyond to make sure we have a great experience. We have had Chris as a server multiple times he never disappoints and crystal has contagious personality we come back because of there great service we have gone to other restaurants and other shell shacks and nothing compares to them 10/10 experience would highly recommend
Absolutely loved shell shack! The food was delicious! I know the first thing you would order is something seafood related, but I would still highly recommend the voodoo smash burger, out of this world with the flavor and the crab imprint on the bun was a fun little touch! Our server Crystal was so funny and very attentive! I felt like she was part of our group, everyone there was kind and informative. I also recommend the spinach queso dip to start with, crazy good! And if you dine after 10pm the apps/ hand held foods are discounted for happy hour!🤩
This was my first time going to Shell Shack. I was wanting seafood other than Red you know the rest. I was not disappointed. First off the hostess Kaija was awesome. I had questions as I had never eaten here and she showed me a menu. Then a server who wound up being my actual server came up and explained the menu in detail. Crystal was very on point and knew the food well and made suggestions on what I might want. I wound up getting the Chicken and Sausage Gumbo, Fried Calamari and a Catfish Platter. The food was excellent all the way from start to finish. Great atmosphere, good service exceptional food! Will definitely be back.
This was my first time visiting the Mesquite location and I must say I was very impressed. Taylor was our server and see was an absolute sweetheart. The atmosphere was very calm and it looked brand new inside. I decided to stop by because I got an email that let me know Shell Shack has an all new menu plus $1 Drafts and $1 Margaritas 7 days a week. We ended up getting strawberry mango margaritas, Chicken and Sausage Gumbo, Death by chocolate cake, the new Crab Daddy Feast boil bag and the new Big Easy Burger. I've never seen a burger with sausage on it so that was a pleasant surprise. I'll definitely be back! Everything was delicious. The manager and GM also both stopped by the table to greet us and ask us how our meal was. Excellent customer service
Haven't been to Shell Shack in forever! First time to this location. When I walked in, the hostess was sitting at the stand on her phone watching TikToks...looked up at me and just said "For 1?" No one greets/welcomes you into an establishment anywhere around this town! I order the MVP, which came out in good time and tasted great. Only complaints I have are the sausages tasted kind of weird and the crab was light on meat inside the shells. Can't expect much in North Texas when you're used to East coast Florida seafood boils. My waitress was awesome and my experience aside from the beginning was good.
I had the Cajun pasta, it was kinda bland and the chicken tasted odd it was grilled but when u bit into it... it was rough and crunchy? Not good. I had to ask forge some of their Cajun seasoning to add to my food. The shrimp in the pasta was nicely cooked though.
We were seated pretty quickly, but the service was absolutely horrible. We waited over 10 minutes for someone to bring us water and over 25 minutes for our orders to be taken. By the time the food came out, it was cold... we wanted them to warm the food up but were nervous it was going to take them an additional 30 minutes to bring it back out. I definitely do not recommend this location.
Update- 3 years later we went back. Tried wings and shrimp this time around. Flavor was lacking with both entrees. This was the opinion of everyone in our large party. However, service was much better. The total experience was mediocre. They sell their crab legs by the pound. Potatoes, corn, and sausage are sold separately. It took about 15 minutes for someone to take our order even though there were only 3 other customers in the establishment. Our waitress was friendly and very helpful. As for the food, the sausage was salty, as was the sauce the crab legs were in . They forgot our potatoes. But remedied that quickly. The potatoes were huge! We ended up not even eating them. I prefer baby red potatoes with my crab legs. I wasn't impressed with the food, but the waitress made the experience better.
I really tried to reach out to customer service before this review. I am pretty sure they served us someone else's spicy overcooked boiled last night. We indeed informed our server but no action . The crab legs was so tough it was a struggle to crack em. This is only my second time here and this experience was terrible.
Gave 4 small sausages for $3.25…we said something to the server she apologized saying she supposed to make awareness that 5 come with ……………. most of our mussels were already dead before cooked and given to us…. Food was cold as hell! Almost 2hrs after leaving I’m suffering from food poisoning …. I threw everything up to the point my stomach was scraping the bottom of the barrel which hurts so bad. Never ever coming here again.
Horrible service.... didn't even make it to dinner. Went here because it was close to our hotel. We ordered a double and coke (tall glass and lots of ice) and a draft beer and started looking at the menu. Our server brings back a short glass single and a bottle of beer. We explained the issue and he explained the draft in that particular beer was broke. No issue, I opted for something different and we asked that the double be put in a larger glass with ice. He comes back right after that with a different bottle of beer and a tall glass, no additional ice. He then mentioned that all of their drafts were broke so he would just pour bottled beer in a glass. The "double" was in no way a double.. it was so weak it tasted like straight pop. They just coupdnt seem to wrap their heads around simple things. Bad experience... we just paid for the drinks (charged for a double, beer was okay on price) and left for another restaurant.
OhKay I drove 2 1/2 hours to try this place the food was really cold the flavor wAS GOOD MY crab 🦀 legs was frozen and the clusters came with legs broken off the manager came and ask “was the inside frozen or just the outside ?” lol then they discounted a few things off my ticket . Saying they couldn’t do much. I then just ordered a bowl of gumbo and paid for the chicken and sausage gumbo but no sausage was in the gumbo. I had to come and leave my honest experience I’d rate them 4.8/10 maybe I’ll have to try them out again but almost three hours I’m truly disappointed seafood is my top favorite I’ve had tons of it but I’d prefer the pluckers across the street .
