Shuckin' Shack Oyster Bar

Richard LaBennett

Nice chill sports bar type of spot with TVs and high tops. The food here was pretty good. Raw and chargrilled oysters, fish & chips, and fried shrimp. Cold beer. Tequila shots. Ate good. Left happy.

Food was good, fish, shrimp, and fries. Service was great. Now the reason for the low rating. Both doors were open to the outdoor patio. Smoking is permitted on the patio and it wafts inside the restaurant. Most unpleasant. And the flies were vicious, forcing us to keep waving them off our food. Nasty. KEEP THE DOORS CLOSED.

The food is fresh and well prepared. The staff is always friendly and knowledgeable of dishes they serve. This is my favorite spot when I want to unwind by myself. This restaurant caters to many pallets with raw or cooked options. Come check out one Durhams gems.

I’ve been coming here for a few years now. My first few visits were amazing. Being from the North I have high expectations when it comes to seafood and I’m glad I was not disappointed. The food was flavorful, service was great, atmosphere was nice. The place is a bit small but cozy, almost like a family environment. However, over the past two years the food quality went downhill. It was dry and bland and the service was not that great, presumably due to COVID. I stopped going last year but decided to try again a couple of weeks ago. The food was plentiful, flavorful, and honestly better than it was when I first started going. New chef? Maybe! Definitely worth a visit now. They just need more staff because the place was crowded inside and out with only one server.
