Shucks

We recently visited with a large group for a birthday party. This is a straightforward seafood restaurant - basic decor and nothing fancy. Our server was very sweet and helpful. She did her best but was sometimes gone for long periods and drinks ran empty. Perhaps it was because we were seated in the porch area and she had other tables inside. The food was really good. We had raw oysters to start, which were fresh and shelled cleanly. I had crab cakes which were chock full of crab - no filler here! I subbed fresh veggies for my side, which were fine but nothing special. A side salad was also included. My husband got a seafood platter which was a lot of food. He said all items were done very well but some weren't as hot as they should have been.I got bread pudding to go. It was quite good. The sauce was a tad overly sweet for me, but that's a personal preference. Cocktail, wine, and beer offerings were pretty basic. Prices for everything are fair.

We were in Abbeville pre-festival and someone recommended Shuck's for dinner.  It was a great recommendation. It was crowded so we put our name on the list and went to the bar. Our drinks had just arrived when our table became ready.  My wife ordered the Oysters Rockafeller and I ordered a cup of the crab and corn soup, the red beans, rice, and fried catfish (which also came with a small potato salad and a house salad). Whoowe was that a lot of delicious food...some of the best I have ever had...and too much for the bread pudding I had planned for dessert.  Excellent service, great food, and very reasonable prices.  Had planned to come back the next day for the rum sauced bread pudding but they are closed on Sundays.  Oh well, maybe next time.

Love it great service good food so full I can't walk our waitress was the best I done with this

I cannot say enough good things about Shucks! Friom the wonderful wooden swing at the entrance to the friendly service and great food, this place has it all! Craving Oysters, I had my fill of big juicy fresh oysters! The seafood pasta was great, the Fried. Combo basket was great, Really everything was great! We visited Twice in one week and would come here again!!

Food was very good . Real eggs in potato salad. Filet mignon was cooked properly. I sat at the bar and the bartender was very attentive and friendly. Atmosphere was great.

We haven't had fresh oysters in ages, and decided return to we're my love for fresh oysters began. They In closed the front opening giving the ability to sit and dine outside, great move here, as wait for inside tables could be long. Service was the same, outstanding and attentive. And the fresh oysters immediately brought back fond memories, just incredible, fresh like it just came out of the water, the stuffed crab nice and spicy, corn and crab chowder had great flavor, goes great with the crackers on the table. Now the surprise was the po boy sandwich half shrimp half oysters, this was a delicious hit, fresh and flavorful and had the option of getting it on a soft roll. Definitely favorite option for oysters fresh or fried.

My husband and I loved Shucks! Now, keep in mind, it can be very busy, but their servers are used to it and don't miss a beat! Everyone was friendly! We both enjoyed our dinner and sweet tea! We don't make it out to Abbeville too often, but will gladly return when we do! It's a fun place and there is also a nice outdoor eating area, too! It's traditional southern food so you'll feel right at home!

The best big crabs!!! Awesome and they are all full!!! And the seafood is great the service is awesome too and I love they are so nice they have all kinds of beers I like the hamburgers they are great!

What a hidden gem. Very nice location, the outside is well done, inside is just a neat hometown feel. Viewing area for the oyster shucking. The menu is incredible and food portions are big. If you leave Shucks hungry it's your fault! We had the Sassy Fried Shrimp for an appetizer. WOW!!! My wife had the Crab Au Gratin with roasted potatoes and the side salad, I had a cup of gumbo (so good, lotsa shrimp and oysters in a wonderful dark roux). I had the half order of Shrimp Patty with Onion Rings and a side salad. Everything was amazing. Our waitress was super nice and attentive. I do wish they had more local draft IPAs. But this place is a DO NOT MISS!!!

Service was great! 5 star everyone moved with a purpose. Friendly. Ambiance- rural cafe feel. Food- was a little lack luster... gumbo was meh...Shrimp and grits...meh... etouffee was meh... fried crawfish had a batter that was sweet tasting. Best thing on table was the grilled potatoes. Everything seemed to need a little something. It will do if you're hungry, but nothing really exciting about the food.
