“ I ordered the half blanket shrimp, half fried fish Poboy it was good but they little stingy on the shrimp but over all the food was good ”

“ I have been here many times and have never been disappointed in the food. Their food is freshly cooked and full of flavor. The boiled shrimp and shrimp and corn soup are delicious! It's definitely a place worth trying The music on Tuesday nights is fantastic. ”

“ Had the pleasure of visiting On the half shell last night for dinner with some regulars. They literally told me they have never had anything off the menu, they didn't like. Our lovely server was Taylor and she was so sweet , helpful and efficient. She took care of our needs before we even knew we had them lol! Thank you Taylor!! ”

“ For a bar and grill this place was pretty chill. The dining area was about half full with only a handful of patrons at the bar, we were told we arrived during the "calm before the storm". We opened the doors unsure if we should sit anywhere or wait to be seated but before we had a chance to pull out chairs for ourselves a young lady asked us how many in our party as she guided us to a nice little corner table big enough for me and my three kids. She had menus in hand and seemed to have our drinks back to us before I could open the cover. I wanted to try a variety and our server recommended the Half Shell Seafood platter. I decided to mix it up a little and opted for blackened catfish and shrimp, grilled oysters, and of course a deep fried crab cake and a deep fried stuffed shrimp. This platter also came with a side salad and a bowl of seafood gumbo. All of it was too shelf and tasted like it was made to order. For an appetizer I went with the crispy artichoke hearts and let me tell ya, that was the right choice! The artichokes came out first and I had never had any other than in a spinach dip, now I couldn't imagine having them any other way. The perfect combination of tart and robust with a crispy, crunchy coating, these little vegetable orgasms were sprinkled with fresh shredded Parmesan and paired perfectly with the house marinara sauce. The order was big enough for both me and my two kids, but I devoured the plate before they had a chance to eat more than just a few. Even the blooming onion takes a backseat to my new favorite app. When the Half Shell Platter arrived I was anxious to see what kind of shock my tastebuds were about to experience and I was surprised in the best way. The catfish was cooked to perfection with a blackened flavor you can't match at home. The shrimp too, perfectly cooked and seasoned with no trace of a rubbery bite or overpowering flavor. First time having oysters grilled and I've got to say raw will always reign supreme, but these were a close second. The rest of the plate was what you'd expect, predictable and delicious. Not the kind of hole in the wall establishment I was looking for, but exactly the kind of authenticity. The server kept the drinks full and the table clear. We had a next to nothing wait time and the food was a 10/10. Well deserving of a five star rating, if I'm ever back in Baton Rouge I'll be stopping in again. ”

“ Fun lunch with my brother at the end of a great trip. We've frequented this spot for over 20 years. Delightful server, great raw oysters and fried as well. Definitely returning on my next trip in. ”

“ If you are ever in Prairieville, LA, you must stop and see Steve. He will take good care of you and your group. I definitely recommend the Blueberry Lemondrop Martini. Merry Christmas to all! ”

“ I love the food, service, and ambience of this place. They have their slightly more upscale side of the building, that's great for a more intimate setting and then they have their bar side where the band plays and has a more relaxed setting to it . So rather you're going here to celebrate an anniversary or just an evening brunch with friends, this place will make everyone feel good with the flowing drinks and food! The food is very good. I've had their (charbroiled) oysters and then their brunch (traditional style) and I have never been let down by the delicious food and exceptional service! We definitely need more good quality places like this around Prairieville in my opinion, glad to see this place going it right. ”
