Shuckin' Shack Oyster Bar - Oyster bar restaurant in Wilmington - 127 N Front St, USA

Shuckin shack was visually pleasing and clean. Staff was initially average but our server was a superstar! She was pleasant and informative! If you are in Wilmington NC this is a great place to stop and enjoy the variety of oysters!

I ate every bite of all my delicious food. Wonderful staff, our waitress was super helpful with all the questions I threw her way about the oysters. So yummy! Definitely will go back.

Shuckin' Shake Oyster Bar was okay. I wasn't expecting a crab boil per se. However, I guess I expected it to be a little more seasoned. It wasn't terrible by far. I just had high expectations. I did appreciate them having all of seasonings, spices, and hot sauces on the table. It helped a lot! The service was quick, and the pricing was extremely reasonable compared to other places that served seafood. They do provide daily specials, and you might get a thing of their 1lbs "Crab Stagglers" for a good price! All in all, as I write this review, they're actually a pretty good place. Please don't expect those Crab boil places that's been popping up from them.

Great staff, great location and very good food. Had a relaxing lunch with a group of 6 friends. Great full bar with some house specialty. Everyone had a good time and loved the food. We wish the weather was a little better and we could have sat on the deck facing the river. Next trip.

The waitress was cold and not very nice or attentive. We ordered a 17 dollar half pound of crab and the size was so unbelievably small. Our food sat for a good 15 mins on the counter and was cold when we got it. I got roasted vegetables and there were shells in them so I hurt my tooth and decided to stop eating it. Very sad because we were so excited to eat here.

I didn't get the bartender's name, but she was very helpful in helping me decide what to get. I missed happy hour by 10 minutes, so don't follow my lead on timing. I did half dozen steamed oysters. Never had them before. Similar to steamed clams, especially when you dip in the butter. Did 3 blue points and 3 Carolina gold raw. Both were good. Probably would choose the Blue if I had to. Finished up with the blackened Mahi sandwich. It was cooked perfectly. Took me a minute to figure out what the sweet flavor was: the Cole slaw. Really good sandwich. The potatoes and sausage were a nice accompaniment.

The atmosphere, drinks, and service were all Great... but the food was just ok. The cocktails were all very good. They were not very busy on a Monday evening, but the appetizers and entrées were very slow to come out, and not all of our food came out together, and some of it was barely warm. The flavor and presentation was just ok - not great.

Wow wow wow.....food was great! Happy hour specials were so good. Got raw oysters, jalapeño bacon oysters and wings. Left so full and satisfied. Definitely recommend the bloody Mary and the oyster martini. They were amazing!
