It was a Sunday afternoon with hubby and the in laws. We all were super hungry and felt like seafood. After searching for seafood restaurants on Yelp, I came across Shucks Tavern & Oyster Bar. I printed out a coupon ($10 off of a bill $50 or more) and we hit the road.
At first, we were all very skeptical and the restaurant's building wouldn't reveal anything about what was expecting us inside. Finally we got over our fears and entered the restaurant. The atmosphere was very friendly, even though a little smoky, since the bar wasn't separated from the dinning area.
For the first hour we were the only customers in the entire restaurant, which didn't bother us at all. Our waiter was very friendly and helpful. We asked him about his favorite on the menu and he suggested the Clam Bakes for $26.95, which feeds up to 2 people and includes the following:
Manila Clams (1 lb)
Snow Crab (1 lb)
Dungeness Crab (1/2 lb)
Andouille Sausage
Red Potatoes
Corn
We ordered 2 of it and WOW, it looked and tasted amazing. The clams were very fresh and tasteful, and so were the snow crabs and the rest of the goodies in that shell looking bowl.
As we asked for the desert menu the waiter came back after about 10 minutes with a tray of different cakes and ice cream samples. We all thought that was very cute and the effort was what counted. We decided for a piece of chocolate cake and the fried cheesecake burritos. They both were very delicious.
I would definitely go back to Shucks. The food was fresh and tasty and price value relationship was great.
