We ate at the Hard Rock location even though we were advised to eat at the other location. Service and food both were very good. We ordered long island ice teas, filet mignon with crab cake, cheddar grits with shrimp and bacon - this was the highlight of our dinner. Sides were a garden salad, hushpuppies, and sweet potatoes creme brulee, all were very good. read more

Great meal and service! Loved the charbroiled oysters and the seafood pot pie. Sides were sweet potato brûlée and salad to complete the meal. Recommend for desert the bread pudding! read more

Spent the night in Biloxi on the way to Disney and want try someplace new. I was absolutely blown away. We had a party of 21 which they promptly seated and made feel welcome. Heather served us and she was attentive, helpful, and is reason 1B that I'll be returning. She was full of smiles and menu suggestions. Reason 1A that I'll be returning was there food. Every single thing that we had was hot and amazing. Loved every second of our experience. read more

The food is always terrific! Most servers are very on point and friendly. Haven't ever had a bad meal here. One of my most fave places to get a steak. Yes a steak! read more

This was a really great restaurant. We are here on a Friday night just getting in town. This place is busy and there is a wait. We were lucky to get a spot at the bar within 5 mins. Oysters were really good and watched them cook them. The cobia was awesome!! A must order item!! The bar staff was awesome keeping our drinks filled! read more

Service was amazing. I believe our waiters name was Garrett. He was very great at upselling and convincing me to get pretty much everything he offered. Unfortunately for me, the food wasnt what I expected. The red snapper had great flavor, but was too oily and too salty. Also the asparagus were swimming in butter. The oyster sampler was okay, but nothing to rave about. The crab and shrimp dip was mediocre and the crab cakes with fried green tomatoes were pretty awful. I couldn't taste anything but bell pepper and the was that it was served caused all of the breading to become very soggy. read more

I promise you, you won't be disappointed! My husband and I have worked over 20 years each in restaurants and food service. The food and service here was ON POINT! Get the ribeye/filet quesadilla, the bacon redfish, some char grilled oysters and do not forget the asparagus w Gorgonzola butter! Chris, the GM was amazing and our server Ricky was absolutely adorable, kind and on his game! We are here for a volleyball tournament and just popped in for what we thought would be som decent food. THIS LOCATION OF HALF SHELL BLEW US AWAY! We have eaten at other half shells and they are always good, but this one....OUTSTANDING! Great job to the staff and management! Biloxi is a mad house this weekend and they are doling out awesome food and service left and right! Don't miss it! It's inside the Hard Rock Casino! read more

The store was very clean and easy to find. We had the pasta, almond crusted chicken salad and their seasonal bacon jam and cheese oysters. Everything was delicious and our server was very nice. read more

Last time I ate here it was awful. Started with a half dozen raw oysters. They were so small I just laughed. Had Eggs Benedict with shrimp. Eggs were overdone n the Shrimp They were transparent. Sent food back. Looked like I was given the same plate. Asked for the Manager n that was a waste of time. No satisfaction. Won't be going back to the Gulfport location. read more

This is my favorite oyster house in Biloxi. Their sampler platter is amazing. My favorite is the Orleans style oysters. This is not a t shirt and flip flop oyster house. The crabs cake appetizer and fried green tomatoes are to die for. Service is always great! I been here numerous times. read more

Ordered Oyster sampler. It came out late after our meal. A lot of the Oysters were burnt. Wait was an hour and half to get in. We waited another hour inside for food. Very disappointing. read more

Husband and I went here for a nice dinner and were not disappointed. So happy with the oysters!! They still had their liquor in the shell so they weren't dry. And they were very fresh and had a nice bite to them. Not really sure what kind of oyster they were. We both also ordered ribeye steaks and they were cooked perfect to order and seasoned perfectly. Even though there is a sauce that comes on it we ordered that to be on the side. We believe a great steak shouldn't need any help to make it better. Glad we had because the seasoning was a little spicy and we weren't really in the mood for that. The steamed broccoli on the side was a little over cooked though. Our waitress was great too! My husband can be high maintenance but she was patient and accommodating to him. read more

Food and service was great!! Voodoo wings, tuna steak, and mashed potatoes were 10/10

This place came highly recommended on food sites. This was my first time in Biloxi and I wanted oysters. The sampler of 4 types of cooked oysters is a must. So much flavor on one platter. If you go get this. Heck, get a couple of them. So freakin good. read more

Phenomenal! Orleans Oysters were amazing!! We ordered the oyster sampler, corn and crab bisque, and tuna dip salad... everything was wonderful. Also tried the pineapple jalapeño margarita! read more

Great stop for seafood and a nice dining experience. I have had the seafood stuffed portobello mushrooms, seared tuna sandwich, and of course the oysters! The sweet potato crepe brûlée is the best side too! They make a great old fashioned if you like bourbon! read more

Great $50 meal in a good restaurant RUINED by two clowns working in the bar who were laughing, talking way to loud, trying to sing and keeping everyone else out of the bar. I was the only one in the bar area and it's easy to see why. WHAT A JOKE!!! AND WASTE OF GOOD MONEY!!!!! read more

This place came highly recommend and I understand why! The atmosphere was nice and appropriate for a nicer seafood restaurant. I've been wanting to try cooked oysters since I can't handle the raw ones and figured this place would be as good as any to give them a try. Let me tell you!!! They were the bomb! I got a half dozen Oysters Bienville to share with my dad. After tasting 1 we both wished we ordered a dozen. For my entree I got the Redfish Orleans with a side of turnip greens and sweet potato creme brulee. Yes, I said sweet potato creme brulee!!! Everything was outstanding!! The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because our service wasn't fantastic. But I still highly recommend this restaurant! read more

Started with Oysters Orleans. Amazing flavor beyond comparison. The Smokey Cajun Sauce, good lord this was ineffable. The French bread cleaned off the shell whatever was left and warm salty soft fresh amah zing flavor filled my mouth. Next, a bowl of seafood gumbo, is this for real or am I dreaming? How can Roux have this much flavor. Every bite, full of seafood, why is the soup disappearing so fast? Can't I just have a bowl that never ends? Ok seafood pot pie. Bring it on. Yep. Bomb. Omg so good. I want this food everyday. Seriously, so good. Going into food coma, ecstasy. Thank you Half Shell. read more

Best Oysters I've eaten in my life ! Inside the Hardrock Hotel in Biloxi . Great view and the service was impeccable Also the bananas foster cheesecake was to die for read more

My absolute, hands down, favorite restaurant on the coast. Never had a meal or drink here that I didn't like. Wonderful!

According to Yelp 3 stars is A-OK and this is exactly how this restaurant is. Located in Hard rock hotel the restaurant is inside the casino. I came in with a group for a birthday party and had the privilege to sit in a reserved off room for the occasion. They offer plenty of seafood, steak, and of course different oyster varieties. I was really excited to try this place out because of all the hype you hear over yelp reviews and media. I went ahead and got the half order of oyster Rockefeller which had spinach, melted butter and some parmesan cheese. They came out fairly quick and had good flavor to it but they weren't anything to special about it. My main entrée was the portabella stuffed mushrooms with stuffed crab meat inside of them. For my 2 sides I went ahead and to the ham hock collards greens and the steamed broccoli. The mushrooms had excellent flavor and the collards greens were very tasty from the ham hocks. The broccoli wasn't cooked that well and seemed a little to over cooked and not al dente. Overall this place is A-OK and the food is great along with the service but in my terms a little pricey for what it is. read more

Oysters are amazing...not over powered by seasoning.... Server's are just so professional

Really enjoyed the visit. Linda was great. I had the gumbo and vodoo shrimp po boy with sweet potato brulee. All were very good. The sweet potatoes are great! I would like to see a little better draft selection but it's a minor point. The food and service were above average and I would return without hesitation when back in town! read more

No bathroom?! That really is my only complaint. This restaurant is in the Hard Rock casino. Our waiter was "Ty" and she was wonderful. I came for the Royal Reds and was not disappointed. They were huge, fresh, and cooked to perfection. Enjoy! read more

Very busy so we opted to sit at the bar for immediate service. Bartender waited on us for prompt attention. The fried crab claws were disappointing as compared to past summer visits because of the varied sizes and thick breading that made them super crunchy and dry. Garden salads were ok and served in cold bowls which is always a plus. The blackened redfish was anything but blackened. It was was coated with seasoned salt and too salty to enjoy. The steak quesadillas included CHUNKS of unchewable gristle and fat. I hate when I have to repeatedly spit food out and look like I have the worst table manners. The tortillas were over cooked and Dalmatian style burnt, so very unappetizing. This restaurant has always been our favorite Biloxi summer spot, but sadly we will have to search for a new fave. read more

My husband and I went to the half shelf in Biloxi. The staff was awesome, and the Oyster man, Kevin, specially prepared oysters for my husband, who never had an oyster in 70 years. Now he decided he loves them. Kevin specially prepared them, went out of his way, to make sure they were perfect. It was a great experience, with over the top customer experience with Kevin B. Ask for him, you won't regret it read more

Very cozy and the servers were very nice and accommodating. The food, on the other hand, is nothing to write home about...it is just a typical seafood house.. read more

We were in Biloxi at the Hard Rock Casino and for dinner everything was delicious. The next morning we came for brunch. The only semi negative was the mimosa was more like ok with a splash of champagne. read more

If you are looking for a solid seafood place in Biloxi this is the place. It is a small Southern chain that hits 5 stars for service and consistently good food. We have been here several times and every time we enjoy a great atmosphere and a service team that works together. My favorite visit was Father's Day brunch, the restaurant was packed, but they still served with grace and style and the food was excellent. The oyster sampler is awesome! Enjoy! read more

We went twice while staying in town, both meals were good. The fishspread is probably one of the best ai have had. I did the Chargrilled Oyster Sampler and that was really good... nice way to try a few differwnt flavors. The strawberry mojito was really good as well... really refreshing.... especially when it is so hot outside! read more

We came here for my birthday dinner. We're locals and Everyone else had eaten here and told me it was pretty good. Since I heard good things, I was very excited because I am Cajun descent and a chef, so of course I love Cajun food. I ordered the Cajun pasta and it was very disappointing. The sauce was separated, it was lukewarm at best, and extremely oily. I haven't been back since but that doesn't mean I wouldn't give them a second chance read more

Nice restaurant and service. It took almost an hour to get seated. The food and service was fabulous! I highly recommend the seafood bisque and sushi as well as the lemon drop martini!! read more
