    1lb shrimp combo - asian pepper
    Kevin L.

    [FOOD] 1lb shrimp combo with asian pepper (mala) sauce - this came with 1lb of shrimp, sausages, corn, and some potatoes. Honestly, for 18 bucks this was a LOT of food. It can definitely feed 2 people. The sauce was very savory and packed the sichuan spices from China, a very adventurous take on cajun seafood. It was bomb. Garlic noodles - I was skeptical but the minced beef or whatever it comes with is hella good. I threw it on the rice instead. Rice - As Chinese person, I know my rice. This was GOOD rice. Just the right amount of stickiness. [SERVICE] Great! [PLACE] Tiny lil mom and pop shop in an odd plaza. Lots of parking tho. They definitely would benefit a lot if they moved somewhere with more traffic such as the center of Rowland Heights. [VERDICT] For 18 bucks I can get a generous portion of Asian cajun seafood that can feed me TWICE. 5/5!

    Inside. So clean, so beautiful

    Boiling crab WHO? Kicking crab WHO? When I tell you you need to go to Shell Seafood Shack, you need to RUN. I'm an Island Gyal so we are people of the sea & this place has the BEST seafood boil I've ever had. Clean restaurant, interior decor on point but most importantly fresh savory seafood choices, home friendly service & pocket friendly (IYKYK seafood boils Can get pricey $$$). When you understand how the menu/system works you'll see you are actually getting an amazing deal (more bang for your buck). Sausages, potatoes & Corns already included in your order. They have add ons if you are looking to add more to your order. You get SO MUCH FOOD! One order can feed two easily. Garlic bread toasted to perfection w/a nice even cover of butter & garlic. Sweet potatoes fries have a crisp crunch on the outside and soft on the inside lightly topped off w/a dash of sugar. So yummy. I always end up ordering more. They have the "good rice" so you know it's already a winner. And their water doesn't taste like pipes and is served from a filtered pitcher. The shrimp are BIG pieces of shrimp. The sizing of the shrimp they use is easily 16-20. In comparison to Boiling crab, or Kicking crab, or any seafood boil place that I've been to they use shrimp size 26-30 which is a small. Shell Seafood Shack uses Large shrimp (there's only two sizes bigger than this, Jumbo & Colossal) so now you know you are getting quality pieces. I love my shrimp with the shell on & for the first time ever, I've NEVER been to a restaurant that had Deveined Shell on shrimp! Just clean. Crab legs are crab legs, can never ever go wrong with crab legs. Our snow crab leg clusters always have meat. I usually get them steamed to the side with no seasoning & ask for butter on the side. Sausages aren't spicy, they are regular sausages. Corn is sweet & potatoes are firm enough to bite into it with ease. The mixings...whew FIRE! Not spicy unless you want it to be. Not salty like most places and just had a different flavor that makes you want to dip for more. I mix all of them together. BANGBANG shrimp is def what it says. Sooo good. It's breaded fried shrimp topped with their BANGBANG sauce. Similar to a sweet & sour sauce but not quite like s&s. TRY IT! My brother finished his whole pan that had mussels, crawfish included and said it's the best he had. He lived in the south for about 6 years. Then we were offered a complimentary serving of beignets. As if this place couldn't do more, they have this for a dessert. So light after eating heavy so you don't feel as guilty lol. What I love most aside from everything tasting delicious, is that everything is served in a pan. BEST IDEA EVER! Depending on how big your order is, is how big the foil pan you receive. It's so convenient bc then you can just put on the lid and take your left overs to go. They don't give you those tacky breakable gloves you usually get at seafood places, they offer the good quality gloves & bibs. ALCOHOL is near in the future. Mark is working his magic to make that happen and says the time frame to serve will hopefully be a month or two. He makes a killer shoju!!! So once that's up and running, it's a done deal. This is the greatest seafood place ever. And trust me when I say I've been to plenty to taste and this small hidden gem outshines them ALL! Do yourself a favor and make the drive here to support a family owned business. I would not steer you away from something this good. 2 for one deal, you put your money towards a hard working family and in return you get MORE for what you paid. They are a new business and I Promise you, you will come back for more after the first time like US. Thank you Shell Seafood shack.

    Beignets (dessert)
    Jagruti L.

    A week ago I was looking for something new to eat in Chino Hills and found this place. We came on Friday evening We ordered 1 dock combo meal. And chose 1 pound of shrimps and 1/2 pound of mussels. It came with pieces of sausages, mini corn on the cob, and potatoes. We picked Cajun mix as our sauce. For our two side we picked rice and the garlic noodles. They also had the option for garlic bread as well. The portion was perfect for 3 adults. For dessert we tried their beignets. It came with 8 pieces and was topped with powdered sugar. The food was amazing delicious. We will absolutely will come back to try other seafood items. If you are seafood lovers, come try this restaurant. The service was wonderful at this cute little place. Our server was really nice and checked up on us when we needed anything.

    Oh the Beignets! So good.
    Adam B.

    Woah! This was an excellent surprise and delight!! I was skeptical at first but oh my! Everything was so delicious and so plentiful! I honestly didn't know what to expect so when this mass amount of food showed up at the table looking so good and smelling equally as wonderful I was so excited to dive in! Everything tasted great! Perfectly cooked, and the sauces and sides complimented everything perfectly. We will absolutely be coming back! Oh! And you probably won't have room for them but force them in, they are worth it!... the beignets !! Oh the Beignets.... So good!

    Food is really nice, and the staff and the chef here are awesome and friendly. This place is family and kids friendly. I'll definitely be back here again and totally recommend it.

    Great place for spicy shrimp, sausage, potatoes, and corn on the cob. Hidden gem for sure. Mark Lee is very passionate about what he prepares. Better than any other shrimp and crap place hands down. Try it once. You'll be back.

    GARLIC NOODLES
    Vivian L.

    New seafood place opened in Chino Hills area! I love their fresh shrimp (easily peeled off) and garlicky garlic sauce. Everything included was around $30, super affordable for seafood meal nowadays. Servers were very attentive, they made sure we never ran out of water. We chatted with the server after our meal, they recommended cajun + lemon pepper butter sauce if you're a fan of "whole shabang" from you-know-where can't wait to come back and try it with their fresh seafood!

    1lbs shrimp and FRIED CALAMARI BASKET
    Paula K.

    My husband and I stopped by the shell seafood shack during their soft opening. When we first saw the menu, we thought it was pretty pricey. However, we didn't know the pound of shrimp price included sausages, potatoes, corn, AND a side of carb! The pound of shrimp with Cajun sauce was very delicious. The shrimps were freshly prepared as we ordered - the kitchen is semi open concept and we were able to see them cook. Shrimps are headless for those who doesn't like to look at shrimp heads. The portion was pretty big. We ordered a pound of shrimp and fried calamari and we were so full and barely finished all the food. We came back couple days later and got the whole fried fish. It came with two sauces (forgot what they were but the sauces were very good too). It was so good and crispy. My husband was very happy with this dish and he wants to order again. This is a family owned business and as of now, the dad cooks while the son takes the order. Overall, we are very happy with this place. Will come back to try more food!

    The food was delicious. We ordered tray #2 for 3 people and it was more than enough. We had about 1 lb to take home. We tried garlic butter sauce and Cajun sauce they were both good. I learned they just opened 2 months ago. It's small with about 6 tables but we had no issue getting a table. Many ppl were picking up to go orders. The staff is very nice and continued to check in on us. If you're in the area you must try this place. The lobster was so tender and cooked perfectly. Give this place a shot it's delicious and not overly priced!!

    Shrimp and squid combo in garlic butter sauce
    L H.

    Pretty good. Portion is pretty generous. I got the garlic butter since it was non spicy. Squid was added and it did not disappoint.

    Outside

    Located in the McDonalds/Dollar Tree Center. The shrimp/sausage/corn/potatoes (seafood boil) combo is $18, and it's enough for two big eaters. Awesome deal!! You also get garlic butter noodles and garlic bread. You can choose peeled or non peeled shrimp. Order extra noodles because the noodles provided with with meal is only enough for one big eater. There are lots of other seafood choices including lobster tails and Calamari. The combo doesn't come in a bag, but in a foil pan, no clean-up :) Not a heavy sauce, but a lighter garlic oil. you can choose two seasoning profiles to mix. Closed on Mondays.

    Shrimp and snow crab
    Adam P.

    I saw a few people talking about this new restaurant in Chino Hills, so I have to try it for myself. The way you order is not that clear at first glance, but when you realize how it works, you know you are getting quite a deal. For example, we ordered the 1lb of shrimp for $16.99 (it's a market price and can change), but you actually get a tray of shrimp with corn, sausage, and potatoes. You also get to choose 2 carbs: rice, noodles, or garlic bread. So we ordered the shrimp and the snow crab, and had them put it all in one larger tray. I'll say the snow crab is not as thick and full as a similar style business in the area, but it's also significantly lower priced. I'll take that! The shrimp though, I would order that every week. And they even peel it for you making it so clean and easy to eat. The picture doesn't do it justice. It's a big tray.

    Food was fine, but the service needs a lot of work…read more It was our first time coming here, so I had no idea how anything worked. When we first arrived, the front was completely disorganized, and there were no lines at all. People were just crowding around the hostess table, so I had no idea how to add my name to the waitlist. There were no signs that showed where the line starts, and no line was being formed at all. The hostess kept having to walk people to their table, so it was nearly impossible to grab her attention. When I did manage to do so, she was very rude and prioritized other people before us. She obviously saw us come in before other people, but ignored that fact and just added other people to the waitlist first. Ridiculous. Their waitlist system is through Yelp, which sends you a text when your table is ready. Based on the app, it said that our table wouldn't be ready for about 1.5 hours, so we decided to walk around the outlet in the meantime. After nearly 1.5 hours, I saw that we were 2nd in line and decided to have our family walk back to the restaurant. While we were waiting outside for me to receive the text, we heard the host call my name and say that our table was ready. We met with him, and I said that it was odd since I hadn't received the text yet. He said, "Oh no, the hostess told me about you guys. You said that your phone was dead, so you'd hang around the restaurant and wait for us to call your name." No. We never said that. They have us confused with a different party. This means that if I hadn't checked the waitlist regularly and had just waited for that text, it never would've come, and we never would've gotten seated. What a messy system. Also, I've never been to a seafood boil restaurant where we have to ask for the bibs. Normally, they're given to us right when we're seated, so it was weird. We noticed other people were given bibs right when they're seated, so we're not sure why this happened. Other Kickin' Crab locations also give you an entire bottle of ketchup, whereas this place only gives small plastic cups. Weird. I think the employees and other customers would agree with me when I say that the entire place is completely disorganized because multiple orders around us were being messed up. The table to our left was missing its piece of corn and sausage in its bag of shrimp, while the table to our right was missing crawfish in their bag. The workers were obviously trying their best to straighten things out, but it didn't seem to be working. The menu is consistent with their other locations, but the market prices are a bit higher than what we're used to. Compared to the location that we always go to, this place offers bigger frozen crawfish, but the bags were mainly just the claws, so it seemed like a big ripoff. * Cajun Fries: 8/10 - nice cook, but there was only cajun seasoning on the top * Shrimp (Head-On): 9/10 - good flavor * Crawfish (Frozen): 6/10 - big crawfish, but the bag was mostly just claws and not enough garlic The place is located at the Shoppes of Chino Hills outlet, so parking is relatively easy. After being seated, the servers were nice, but it was difficult to enjoy the experience because of everything that had already happened. Overall, the service was a huge letdown, and we did not feel comfortable eating here. Places like this are why tipping is optional. The workers at the Kickin' Crab location we usually go to are way more laidback and friendlier, yet still maintain impeccable service. Would not return.

I noticed the flavors were mostly just salty and spicy, to the point where I couldn't really taste the intrinsic flavor of the seafood itself. I ordered the mixed seafood cocktail, but it had mostly lemon juice and tasted much more like a ceviche than a traditional cocktail. Most concerning of all, I could tell something was off with the seafood, and it ended up giving me a major upset stomach after eating here. Considering how much we paid for just 2 entrées, combined with the fact that it made me sick, it is highly unlikely that I will ever return.

Absolutely delicious--super fresh and packed with flavor. Highly recommend this dish. We also tried the tostada de pescado (size small), which was probably my least favorite. It wasn't bad, just didn't stand out compared to everything else. I'd personally skip it next time. One thing to note--there's a small parking lot that was more full than expected given how many people were inside. It seems like it might be shared with nearby businesses, so just keep that in mind. Overall, great experience, great food, and I'd definitely come back to try more from the menu.

HOUSE PAN ROAST It tasted exactly what was expected. A creamy tomato soup consistency and flavor. Got level 2 or 3 for spice level. I wanted more of that creamy flavor, not spice. Any higher than 3 would be Tabasco level spice and up. Deliciously filled with shrimp, chopped scallops, small crab meat. I could taste the crab meat, which was all sitting at the bottom of the bowl. The scoop of jasmine rice with the creamy pan roast was comfort on another level. Got the small size, but it is enough for me. I do wish there were more shrimp and scallops and crab in the pan roast. I felt the scallops and crab were chopped too small and wished there was a bit more. But still I enjoyed the pan roast and would get it again. As an appetizer and accompaniment to the house pan roast, they bring a basket with three sliced breads and a side of butter. It's a light, soft bread with a bit of sour flavor. Didn't like it. I would have preferred dinner rolls. CUSTOMER SERVICE I arrived 1 hr before lunch closing time. It closes at 2:00pm and then re-opens for dinner at 5:00pm. But service was good!

I also ordered a salad. Everything was good until I went home and tried the food. To my disappointment, the pan roast had shredded chicken in it, which I did not request.

She said no, but that it could be added at an extra cost. I told her I didn't request that. After going back and forth, she made me send her a photo of the food and wanted me to drive back in. I sent the picture, told her I lost my appetite, and would like a refund. She hung up on me several times. The next day, I came in at the beginning of dinner. There were several customers waiting to get seated and after we waited 10 minutes or longer, people started leaving. I waited until she sat the party before me. After that, I got her attention and I kid you not, she dismissed me after recognizing who I was. I waited another 10 minutes watching her serve everyone else. After realizing that I wasn't going to get any help unless I spoke up, I asked for help again. This is a refund I was coming in for, which shouldn't have to take more than 2 minutes. She came back some time later with a claims release for me to sign. I took my time reading and realized how abnormal this practice was for a simple refund, so I declined to sign it. I asked to speak to the owner who never came out (unless she was the owner). What I thought would take less than 5 minutes to resolve ended up taking nearly 30 minutes. I have already ordered dinner somewhere else in the same plaza, so I told the worker to call the owner and figure it out and I will be back after I pick up my dinner. It was then where she handed me my cash refund, told me that I have been an inconvenience to her since she had to pay out of pocket, and that I didn't look sick. Wow, just wow. This had to be the most ridiculous interaction I have had with restaurant staff. I brought in the food I ordered to show I absolutely barely touched it and when I asked for a copy of my receipt, I wasn't given one. Mistakes happen with food, but that worker's communication and way of handling refunds was unacceptable and unprofessional. She blamed a customer for what was clearly a mistake from the restaurant and by playing doctor telling a customer they don't look sick. The fact that she pressured me to sign a claims release then later refunded me anyway meant that release wasn't actually required. I 100% would not recommend this establishment to anyone and regret ever supporting them.
