Half Shell is a lovely neighborhood seafood spot, especially if you can catch happy hour. We went for the $2 oysters, and they were delicious, fresh, simple, and exactly what you’d want from a casual Seattle-area seafood place. I do wish there were a few more topping options for the oysters, but the quality itself was great. The outdoor seating was really nice, and the staff were pleasant and welcoming. To be honest, Half Shell and Mr. Fish next door feel very similar to me in terms of service, vibe, and food quality, so I almost think of them as companion spots. Both have that relaxed, fresh-seafood feel. Would I fight the terrible parking, traffic, and pedestrian congestion just to come here? Maybe, maybe not. If someone suggested it, I’d happily say yes, it’s a lovely place for a casual seafood evening. But I probably wouldn’t go far out of my way for it. Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4

Had a great happy hour experience. Oysters were delicious and fresh. Ordered the happy hour crab roll and the shrimp nugget slider. Hear me out. The slider always so good and that pickled cucumber salad situation on the side is so on point. Was able to chat with chef Josh about the menu and he was as excited about what they're doing there as I was. Definitely a place to stop after or before visiting pike's market.

The place looked great, the service came front the bar, which he actually did great. I can see how other reviews highlight service issues. That said food was good solid 4/5. The salad was dynamite, would go back for that! Dungeness sandwich was also worth a the visit. Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $50–60 Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4
