Half Shell Oyster House

The Half Shell Oyster House has eleven locations. The first one opened in the summer of 2009 in Downtown Gulfport, MS and the second in Downtown Biloxi, MS. The charbroiled oysters are legendary and the atmosphere will make you feel like you’ve stepped back in time. Located in the historic Kremer building in downtown Gulfport, the “Half Shell” or “Oyster House,” as locals have abbreviated it, serves the Southern delicacy freshly shucked on the half shell, charbroiled over an open flame, BBQ, Rockefeller and Bienville. We expanded to Florida in 2012 with the opening of our Sarasota, FL restaurant. Our fourth location opened in Hattiesburg, MS, in February 2013 and our fifth location opened in Mobile, AL in June of 2014. Since we have opened a location in the Hard Rock Casino in Biloxi, MS in January 2015 and Flowood, MS in September 2015. In January 2016 we opened our second Alabama location in Spanish Fort and October 2016 we opened in Lafayette, LA, our first in Louisiana! Our most recent location opened in late May 2017 in Destin, FL. We have since opened locations Covington, LA and Tuscaloosa, AL

Our oysters are outstanding, but if you’re not in the mood for oysters, Half Shell has a vast menu with something for everyone, lunch or dinner. Start your meal with New Orleans style BBQ Shrimp or a Seafood Stuffed Portabella. The Half Shell Salad with avocado, goat cheese and toasted almonds is great paired with a cup of gumbo. We feature daily and monthly specials utilizing locally caught fresh fish and seafood. The burgers, poboys and sandwiches are all good too. Or, try one of our steak or chicken creations like the Almond Encrusted Chicken. Seafood specialties include classic Shrimp and Grits and hearty Seafood Pot Pie.

Whatever you choose, it’ll be served with warm Southern hospitality in a unique atmosphere that complements the food. Exposed brick walls, wrought iron railings, unique French Quarter lighting and architecture frame the room. Each location offers a beautiful and unique setting for your dining experience. Each of our locations has semi private areas for your party or banquet needs. Or, just pull up a stool at the long copper bar, order a cold one and watch your oysters be grilled to perfection.

For lunch, dinner or happy hour, Half Shell Oyster House is sure to soon be your old favorite.
