Big Shucks Oyster Bar

Based solely on Camarra B.'s review below, my husband and I ordered the blackened shrimp salad when we met friends for lunch here on Saturday. There was a long line that moved pretty quickly. You order at the counter and then they call your name when your order is ready and you go pick it up. That salad was absolutely fantastic and the little bit that we had leftover we enjoyed later that evening. It hardly needs dressing if you toss all of the ingredients together thoroughly as the blackening seasoning and parmesan coat everything pretty well. However, I did dip a little of mine in ranch and hubby used oil and vinegar. We also ordered raw oysters on the half shell and they were OUTSTANDING! Very fresh and light. The atmosphere is typical for oyster bar with nautical theme. I would highly recommend this place and would definitely return. I would like to add that our friends ordered the fried shrimp and combo fried shrimp and oyster baskets and it seemed like they had a lot of food for the value and the shrimp looked perfectly butterflied and cooked.

I always get the chicken tenders tossed in buffalo sauce. My husband gets the shrimp cocktail.

No wonder this place was packed! The food was fresh and appealing, and the line was out the door when I arrived even at 4:30 on a Sunday. Manager Brian was super helpful when I had a question about oysters and I'll definitely be back!

I'm back again!! Big Shuck's has become my go-to spot for this salad. I love the blackened shrimp salad so much. The shrimp holds so much flavor, and it makes a perfect combination with the lettuce, tomato, avocado & Parmesan cheese. So simple, yet so exciting, you gotta try it out for yourself!

Went on a Monday evening - what a great staff - we had not visited in many years but knew it was good and a long time spot for our area - easy parking, plenty of seating - outdoor and indoor. Staff were very helpful with menu items and drinks - great happy hour drinks. Loved shrimp cocktail, fried oysters and catfish basket - we thought a good price for items purchased. Music / TV's for watching if you want. Low key - easy - good value.

Great place, the food was delicious we had a little bit of everything ! Great for family outings . Don't let the line scare you, it moves rather quickly ! we will be back (:

The coconut shrimp was delicious. So were the margaritas. Very casual atmosphere. A little skimpy on the catsup. I went back for another little cup and they gave me ONE extra. Also the key lime pie was fantastic. The sweet tea was also good. Not fancy but very good food. I want to go again.

Been coming for years. Food has always been delicious. BUT today I was disappointed. Catfish filets lacked meat. It was a bunch of cornmeal. Get it together guys!!

Let's start by saying whether you dine in or take out will affect the number of stars (b/c there really is a difference). Having fried seafood not sit in take out containers and come out straight to you tastes so much better onsite. Service during weekday lunch was relatively fast. Most of our items were golden brown delicious. Misses include quite a bit of ceviche tortilla chips that were too brown to eat. Also, the fish was a bit too "cooked" and seemed unfresh compared to other's quality ceviche.

I hate to leave this kind of review but I feel it must be addressed. This is regarding the staff and the way things are handled when ordering. The young lady who took our order was very rude. No customer service, in terms of greeting and feeling welcomed. For every item we added, it was an automatic "anything else" but with annoyance. Also, people would skip the line and then order on the side and claim, "they forgot" to order. We were next in line and FOUR orders were taken before ours. I understand it was busy and it's hard to keep up, but it's not fair to those who waited patiently. Anyway, besides that, the food is always great, no complaints there. Also, before I forget, the staff that cleans the tables, they are always so kind, quick, and helpful. They work so efficiently and I wanted to give them a praise.
