Shuck Me

One of the best seafood places! Service was good, great place- super spacious inside and out, lots of parking, very clean.
The food was so delicious and came out so quick! Best Alfredo hands down.
Everything was crispy and fresh.
The fries were some of the best fries! Shrimps were juicy.
Calamari wasn’t chewy or dry, so good! Gumbo was delicious and had a nice kick! This will be our new favorite spot to go to.

About a block or so from Denton Square, Shuck Me is a cute beach themed seafood spot.
The decor is top notch! I really love the mix of marine themed items.
I think I would discover something new each time I went.
I especially loved the huge treasure chest over the drink area. They have a large outdoor area as well, fun, we sat at one of their fun, round high tops and enjoyed the many TV’s and fun music they were playing. The service wasn’t bad, it just wasn’t inviting and welcoming.
We didn’t know where to go at first - they have you walk to the back wall to order - but we figured it out quickly.
Once at the counter, the lady took our order, and got it correct, she just didn’t show much personality or engage much other than asking to take our order. It was a great time to go, on a Sunday evening around 6:30.
They weren’t super busy, but busy enough that we enjoyed the vibe without a super long wait. So, for the food.
I ordered a fried shrimp and catfish combo.
The fries were SO amazing! They are absolutely delicious! The fried shrimp and the catfish filet were smaller than I had anticipated, as compared to similar types of restaurants.
The flavor was good, but I was disappointed with the catfish.
It had too much of a mud-cat flavor for me, a little too earthy.
My husband ordered the Mexican shrimp cocktail and gumbo.
He enjoyed both of them.
Both were packed with seafood and the serving of tortilla chips on the side with the shrimp cocktail was a nice touch. There are other items on the menu that I will try next time.
They have a lot of choices on the menu, it took us a few minutes to decide what we wanted.
I really like the various options, it provides something for everyone to enjoy.

We have been wanting to try this place for a long time but it’s a little off the beaten path so we forget about it but today was the day! The entrance is massive, I prefer to, at least, be greeted upon entering which didn’t happen but that’s okay. Menu is a good size.
Not TOO crazy but with just enough choices to be interesting. HAD to try the lobster Mac.
Delicious! My two year tasted it and then hardly let me have anymore of it.
I stepped it up a notch and added the Shuck me sauce, which tastes like chipotle chulua. Got the shrimp and gumbo bowl, the wife got pound of shrimp and I got a couple of pieces of catfish(this is a fish place right). Again, not a fan of having to get my own food, get my own refills, etc when there’s a “tip” option after ordering.
The option should be taken off. Food was hot and everything tasted super fresh.
The new potatoes with dill and garlic butter came out less than warm but were perfectly soft, so not a deal breaker. Bowl was very good.
The roux wasn’t burnt and it had good amount of sausage and shrimp. Fish was flaky, well flavored and crisp. Shrimp was very good.
I would have loved to see an option to get two corn cobs instead of a potato.
That corn cob was 🔥. All in all, great place.
Will definitely be in the dinner rotation.
