Shell Shock Seafood House

One of the best seafood boil spots in the bay area!I love this restaurant for both take out and dining. I've been ordering the shrimps in a bag with the house sauce for at least 2 years now and it never disappoints! I always add potatoes, sausage and corn to my shrimp bag and never forget the side of steamed rice.The restaurant is nice and clean with the awesome exception of the writing that you can find all around the restaurant done by customers that dine in. You can ask the staff to write in your name.The service is pretty quick for take out as well as dining in. Definitely recommend this restaurant!

This is not the spot for fresh food the ambiance is basic no frills but enough to bring a large party our waitress did her best that she could muster that day so service was good now on to the food we ordered fried oysters, shrimp basket, garlic noodles, onion rings, lobster roll corn on the cob & calamari Margaritas are Costco grade cause they told us ~ so we ordered the Moscato that was flat so be aware Lets just say we sent the lobster roll back because there was no lobster it's imitation seafood salad and the calamari which was not cooked yuk and the rest was all over cooked and unseasoned needless to say we won't be back

Holy crab, the reel-y awesome seafood spread at Shell shock seafood house had us anchored in a haven of oceanic flavors! Dive into one of the 3 Seafood Combos. I got combo 3, a maritime marvel with a whole Dungeness crab, tipping the scales at a hefty 1.5-2lbs, complemented by a medley of clams, crawfish, and shrimp. Each morsel was bathed in a rich and aromatic cajun sauce. The Garlic Noodles is a symphony of taste - tender noodles, all enrobed in a golden, garlicky embrace. It's a dish that sings of comfort and flavor. The Fried Shrimp Basket was my favorite. Each shrimp encased in a crisp, golden coat, paired impeccably with Garlic Cajun Fries - a duo that crunches and satisfies with every bite.End of your meal with a margarita or the various macaron ice creams. I love the casual sea theme and relatively quick service, although the seafood combo is a little pricey. Say 'shell yeah' to dive into a Cajun seafood boil asap!

Shell Shock is an awesome spot! The food is absolutely delicious, and the service is top-notch--friendly, fast, and attentive. The fun and lively atmosphere makes it a great place to hang out and enjoy a meal. Whether you're there for a casual bite or a night out, Shell Shock never disappoints!

This place looks and feels almost exactly like Boiling Crab!We got some shrimp and sausage with their house sauce and fries and gumbo to share.Because of the similarity of the restaurant to Boiling Crab, we were expecting similar flavors, but that's our bad for making any assumptions because that was not the case. Aside from our assumptions, the seafood sauce was okay - it had a lot of flavor, but the combination was interesting. The shrimp was nice and plump though.Gumbo was fine. Nothing exciting there. Fries were good. Overall, food decent, but the sauce was not to my taste.

Came here with a party of six in the mood for seafood boil. Looks like a typical seafood boil spot. Place wasn't too busy. Maybe three or four other parties there. We were seated promptly. Took a bit of a while to put our orders in and some orders took longer than others to receive. Ordered two shell shock combos, fried oysters, garlic noodles, and some strawberry margaritas. Don't get me wrong, the seafood and margaritas were good. The garlic noodles tho seemed overcooked and a bit bland. Service wasn't so great. We probably were checked on once and that was when we were waiting on our other orders. They're a bit pricey as well compared to most seafood boil spots.

Omg, I love, love this spot. Neat, clean and delicious. I have a few other boiling seafood spots but this one is a hit for me. Celebrated a birthday there and the servers were great! They made us feel like royalty. I can say the prices were comparable to other eateries but the way they made me and guests feel is a special unique quality that not many restaurants can offer. Go and enjoys!!!

With the sad news that my favorite crawfish place closed (Crawdaddy in Milpitas), the fam tried out Shell Shock. It's a bit pricier than say, Cajun Crackin' in Milpitas, but the flavors are pretty good.We ordered mildly spicy SS House Special sauce *cajun, garlic butter, lemon pepper. Not hot, the hot link sausages were spicier. Go medium & beyond if spice is your life. Sauce is thicker here, like at Ray's Crab Shack.*Combo #1: 2 fresh crawfish +$4 & 1 shrimp (choose 3 lbs from shrimp, crawfish, clams, mussels) includes corn, potatoes, sausage*Combo #3: Dungeness crab + crawfish, shrimp, clams plain boil (choose either crab, snow crab legs, or lobster & 3 lbs from combo 1 options)*Dungeness crab plain boil: they give the option of cut/clean but without the main shell*Garlic Noodles: happy with this because of all the delectable garlic!I was a tad upset I found 3 inedible fresh crawfish (rubbery/easily crumbled with a sandy taste) but the rest of the 3lbs was fine. Shrimp was cooked well. The house special sauce had a slightly sweet taste that I'm not accustomed to with seafood boil.No wait at 5pm on a Saturday. Nautical interior with spacious seating. Staff is nice too. Waters were refilled, they checked on us, and also offer hot water to drink. I really enjoyed whoever's music playlist was playing on 5/20/23 around 5pm! I wouldn't mind coming back.

We went all out with 2lbs of shrimp, a hugeee lobster, garlic noodles that were pure perfection, and those cajun garlic fries were next level!If you're craving seafood done right, this is THE spot!

Ordered lobster last night and this is what we got. $100 for green mush. Tried to return it but the waitress said we couldn't get our money back and that this was normal? Never eating here again! Absolutely disgusting. Lost my appetite.
