The Quarter - Gulfport

I was in town for business with a colleague and one of our local team mates suggested Half shell to us. We definitely enjoyed the atmosphere and the food. Our waitress Jill was absolutely amazing. She was very attentive, she made sure our glasses stayed full and she was extremely knowledgeable about the menu. The only downside.....not a big enough stomach to eat all the food on the menu . We will be back the next time we are in town and the next and the next. Great job Jill and Half shell

Would give it 6/5 stars if I had that option! plenty of space with a double decker seating inside. Ended up choosing the sautéed greens and seafood pie. The greens was absolutely out of the world good yes we are only talking about pan frying greens but it's amazing how bad it tastes at most places, here you can taste the clean, fresh, and cooked taste of greens. The seafood pie was great also could taste the sea in them that also may sound strange with all the processed fish in restaurants.

Amazing!! We arrived with a large group and were seated immediately. Service was amazing and food was amazing. Everything arrived at a timely matter! I loved the ambiance. You can arrive in a very casual look for even a business look here it doesn't matter. We ordered the Rock Oysters, it was very good but my favorite is the charbroiled oysters! Something about the grill taste with seasoning butter sauce and the bread makes a great combination. My entree for the day was the red fish with salad and the yam parfait. I loved the butter and brown sugar with it! You need to try this combination! My fish was very well seasoned, slightly over cooked but I was very very happy to even complain about it! Thank you for your southern hospitality!

We had our first dinner on vacation at half shell oyster house. The food was good! The grilled pineapple margarita was AMAZING. Our server was extremely friendly and overall loved the atmosphere.

First and foremost I want to say I absolutely love this restaurant and always try to patronize it when I'm in town; however, my latest visit was VERY disappointing. The server was okay but hard to find at times. The food was average at best and almost subpar. My bf and I LOVE oysters and we were excited to get the chargrilled oysters but what we were presented was unacceptable. I had to ask the server to re-fire 6 of them because they were completely burnt. Without the stuffing my eggplant would've been completely bland. He ordered the pasta and gave it a 5/10 due to lack of sauce. I hate we didn't enjoy ourselves but I'll be back to give them another chance.
