I will ask them every time I eat at shells. the eating comes hot not warm, the roasted clams are the best I ever had, eating comes hot fast, so I will give shells 5 of 5 stars!

We went on a Tuesday evening and were seated immediately. Our only complaint is that we felt the portions could be slightly bigger. Other than that, our dishes were excellent! Food rating: 4/5.

I had a bowl of their clam chowder and it had more clams in it than I've ever seen. The flavor was good. I also ordered the shrimp pasta. It was good and had plenty of shrimp. For me, neither of these dishes were what I would call home runs but I would order them again. However, my wife had the coconut shrimp with coleslaw and red potatoes. When it comes to coleslaw, she can be very picky as she makes great slaw at home. She loved the coleslaw here.Also she really liked the shrimp stating they must make it here because it's not like the frozen coconut shrimp she usually gets served. She also thought the red potatoes were very good. Overall this was a good experience and the bill, including a beer and ice tea came out to $46 incl tax. We left a 20% tip as our waitress was very good.

Always pleasant service and the food is excellent. I always have the baby lobster and fettuccine which is scrumptious read more Always pleasant service and the food is excellent. I always have the baby lobster and fettuccine which is scrumptious

There always seemed to be plenty of patrons and the service and food were great, so not sure what happened.

She brought out drinks and took our appetizer order promptly. Once the food came out she kept our glasses full. Dinner was yummy and I'm sure we will go back. This location is 100% open so I'm not sure why yelpers have listed it as closed.
