Half Shells - Legacy

Half Shells - Legacy is a seafood and cajun & creole restaurant with a rich back-story dating back to 1994 when it was originally a coffee bar called Michele's Coffee Bar and Café. After the owner agreed to sell, it was converted into Shell's Oyster Bar which later rebranded as Half Shells due to a lawsuit over trademark infringement. Despite this bump in the road, the restaurant has continued to grow and expand with new locations and menu items.

The best plans usually start with “Are you free at 3?”

Coincidentally, that’s when Happy Hour starts. Just saying.

Good oysters, good company, and a local favorite. 🦪

With Fish City Grill recently featured in *D Magazine*, we're shining the spotlight on our very own Mystic Mermaid oysters.

Developed exclusively with Cape Cod Oyster Company and grown off the coast of Massachusetts, they're something special we're proud to bring to your table.🌊

There are five love languages. We added gumbo. ❤️

Especially when it's made from scratch, loaded with shrimp, andouille sausage, and rich Cajun flavor.

And because every good love story deserves a supporting character, we're giving our gumbo a drinking buddy. 🍺

National Gumbo Day | Monday, October 12
Bowl + Draft | $15

Dine-in only at participating locations.

There's a whole lot of love in a good bowl of gumbo.

Ours is made from scratch, loaded with shrimp, andouille sausage, and the kind of rich Cajun flavor that keeps you coming back for another spoonful.

We thought our gumbo could use a drinking buddy. 🍺
So this National Gumbo Day, we're pairing it with a cold draft b**r for a pretty good Monday deal.

Bowl + Draft | $15 | Monday, October 12
Grab a friend, pull up a chair, and let us take care of lunch.

National Taco Day calls for the whole lineup. 🌮

Serafin’s Hand-Rolled Fish Tacos - the Fish City Grill original, hand-rolled and grilled.

Honey-Chipotle Shrimp Tacos - sweet heat, shrimp, avocado & plenty of flavor.

And from the October Chalkboard: Seared Tuna Tacos with avocado smash, avocado ranch & charred pico.

Three tacos. Three completely different takes. The hard part is deciding where to start.

SUNDAY, NO SCORE REQUIRED. Oysters. Martinis. Good company. There's more than one way to do Sunday.

Fresh fish doesn’t just show up at our back door.

It gets here through relationships with trusted seafood partners, fishermen and fishing communities who help us know where our seafood is coming from and get great fish into our kitchens.

That’s where our story starts.

For October, our kitchen is turning it into Seared Tuna Tacos, Shrimp & Scallop Piccata Pasta and Blackened Barramundi with Blue Cheese Butter.

Three completely different dishes, all beginning the same way: with seafood we’re proud to serve.

They’re on the chalkboard all October!

🦪 Meet the Mystic Mermaid. She’s kind of a big deal around here.
Raised in the waters of Nantucket Sound off Cape Cod, our proprietary Mystic Mermaid oysters have a bold brine up front with a sweet finish. And you’ll only find them here.

Fresh-shucked, distinctive, and very much worth getting to know. 🧜‍♀️

Come taste what makes a Mystic Mermaid special.

Four-day weekend ahead.

We can't tell you what to do with all that extra time, but we can point you toward a cold margarita and a very good plate of seafood.

The margaritas are cold. The seafood is handled. Bring your friends.🍹

Long weekend. Cold margaritas. Tacos on the table. We like where this is headed.

Labor Day Weekend gives us a few extra days to hang onto summer and three pretty good ways to do it.
🍉 Watermelon Margarita $10
🍍 PiñaRita $10
🍹 Gold Margarita $7

And if you're hungry, September's Jalapeño Bacon Mahi Tacos have officially hit the Chalkboard.
