Shore Raw Grill - Austin

My first time here, The food is delicious, and the place is awesome but we didn't get the service we expected, we are weekly guests in the area to local restaurants, we chose to seat at the bar, there were 2 guys and a girl as bartenders, the guys were not too good in the service, they kind of didn't care about following closely I requested merlot, they dont carry any the bartender didnt make any suggestions, also he didn't care at all about our food requests, neither didn't give a good service at all, the female bartender she is awesome, she really did care and we got to order drinks and food finally as we wanted. It is so important for any restaurant to keep the excellence in service specially at the bar!Even we felt disappointed, I love to support local businesses so I will be back because we loved the foodand we consider is worth the try, but we certainly expect a better service next time..Note: I don't post this to put them down but as an entrepreneur I give this constructive review, it is a good place but the service is not up to the food level, I wish the best to this great place! We all grow if we learn from each other, the best for you all!! See you soon!!

Great place and we will no doubt be back. We have driven past many times but never gave it a second thought until finally one day we looked up the menu and knew we just had to try.Right off the 71 and plenty of parking so very easy to access. There is a large raw bar you can sit at and a regular bar. And there is plenty of indoor and outdoor traditional seating.Shortly after being seated, we were greeted and told about the specials as well as our drink orders taken. This was my first time try 512 Brewery and have to say that it 's now one of my favorites! We started off with salads; we ordered the Caesar and Blue Cheese Wedge and both were amazing.We are big fans of peel eat shrimp, so whenever we find a place that 's serving it... we have to try. They advertise their shrimp as Gulf shrimp and I have to say, since moving to Austin, we have had some fresh Gulf shrimp and it is some of the freshest shrimp ever! While this was good shrimp, it wasn 't as good as some we have had from sellers who bring it fresh from the gulf waters. They also use very large shrimp; the size you would expect for a shrimp cocktail but not for peel eat shrimp. Whenever I have had peel eat shrimp at any other place, they usually serve a pound of 16/20 or maybe 11/15 size shrimp. I 'm not sure this was a pound as it doesn 't state on the menu and we didn 't ask but again, these are shrimp you would traditional get in a jumbo shrimp cocktail. It came with an unusual cocktail sauce. The sauce did have a nice spiciness to it, but there was some other flavor that we didn 't really like. We ate it, but it would have been nice if it was just traditional cocktail sauce with a side of horseradish. They cook the shrimp in Old Bay seasoning which is amazing! Very few places use Old Bay but happily they do. And the shrimp definitely could have been chilled more. The shrimp meat wasn 't as firm as you would expect; sometimes when places boil the shrimp, they don 't spend enough time letting it cool down to firm up the meat.We will have to come back someday to try some of their fish dishes. They have monitors on the wall and seem to show quite a bit of sports, so no doubt this would be a great place for football when the season starts back up soon. But if you are seafood lover, you will certainly enjoy this place.

Had no expectations coming in to Shore and was quickly greeted with the sound of an amazing live band. The experience only got better from there. They had a diverse menu and everything we ordered was amazing! Can be a little on the pricey side but was worth it for the ambience and cuisine. Give this place a try!Food: 5/5

Was very excited to eat fish ? chips and my fiancé loved his shrimp ? poboy. Will be coming back to try the crudo ceviche. Our server was great too!Food: 4/5

When a tip is placed on the bill for you, it ruins the entire meal.Burger was over cooked despite not being busy.This place is just too expensive for the quality and service.I tried the chilled lobster roll during my first visit… wasn’t that good.Tried to dine in again today, and I’m just not impressed. Tried the lunch special burger, but it just didn’t satisfy. Fries are thin and lacking anything unique.Family didn’t complain, so maybe it was better for them.
