FIRST OF ALL THESE PRICES ARE NOT ACCURATE!!!!!!!!!!Listen. Very rarely to i leave negative feedback , but this is outrageous. For starters, the prices on this site are obviously very dated. We ordered 2 lunch combos which cost $9.75 each according to this site. In actuality they are over $12 each after tax. In addiction the large sweet teas are now $2.99 Each! And for the record the large drinks are not the large. Especially for $3 each! Listen, I’m a local business owner myself, and I know that profit is the name of the game, but lets be real folks, it prob cost 40 cents to make this tea if you include the Styrofoam cup it comes in. The value is just not here. The food is good food, but I wont be returning for these prices…it simply wasn’t THAT good. When I questioned them about the price discrepancy, they said they cant figure out how to change the prices online. I know that if prices were listed wrong for my business online somewhere, I would definitely make it a priority to update them. AT the very least give me the total over the phone when I placed the order so I could have either made arrangements or cancelled the order then. Oh and on top of it all, its a cash only business. I’m not sure what kind of establishment in 2017 doesn’t accept any other form of payment besides cash.
My person and I tried Shell Bar and Bird’s Shack, and we think both are pretty good, but Bird’s Aphrodisiac is a bit better. I am not an oyster fan, so I prefer baked oysters over the raw.She’ll definitely had better baked oysters than Bird’s does. I loved how they were simple and good. There wasn’t a ton of toppings or an overwhelming flavor. Just butter, garlic, lemon and possibly some other herbs.The bf said that the oysters are good, but not great. Pricing, however, was a little less than Bird’s. The cocktail sauce is a must try!! They mix it themselves and it’s phenomenal! It was so good that we brought a bottle home lol.Also, BRING CASH!!! It’s cash only – we had to pull some money from a nearby gas station’s ATM.
Weird place! Oddly shaped building in old industrial looking area with NO windows! Raw oysters were great! Super cold and tasted great! Fried fish, shrimp and bay scallops were perfect…not a fan of fried crab claws though and that’s the only way they serve them. Just great old school fried seafood, raw oysters and all the great Southern sides. I thought the coleslaw was really good and their house made cocktail sauce was unique and tasty- thinner consistency than I am accustomed to though. I kinda had to beg for the right amount of lemons for all the food but I can’t wait to go back the next time I have an oyster or fried shrimp craving. Super affordable! They don’t serve beer and only accept cash. Ignore the TV playing Fox News 😉
