   Got the SS boil to share. Everything tasted dry and unfresh. Their house sauce and their additional sauces that we paid for, were overpowering and didn’t pair well with the boil. The prawns and lobster were rubbery and hard. Seems like it wasn’t freshly made. Considering the portion size and price, we expected a certain level of quality which wasn’t met. Lastly, it is a little strange that you are asked to pay immediately after ordering.

   This is my third visit in as many months. The seafood is of excellent quality, and the service is prompt. The sharing platters are outstanding; I highly recommend the skipper platter for £80, as it provides plenty of food for two hungry men. I also appreciate the thoughtful touches, such as the apron, bib, wipes, and utensils. I would love to see a loyalty card introduced!

   Ma famille et moi avons adoré le concept avec les options disponibles. La nourriture est délicieuse. Cette fois première fois, nous avons pris les délicieuses crevettes Queens. Le crumble pour le dessert aussi très bon. Nous reviendrons sûrement

   Was really looking forward to experiencing the food however wss Very Disappointed ordered the soup it was tasteless lack of flavour just eating warm cream with a fee seafood thrown In. For mains ordered the SeaFood boil the snow crab was a crabette no meat on the shell the prawns over cooked just the the calamari very rubbery. There worst part was that you have to pay before you eat Would not recommend this place No re visit for me and my family.

   Seafood boil was honestly so bad, no taste just soooooo much oil and grease. Spicy for vibes. The only good thing was the portion size.

   My husband and I visited Shrimp Shack in Camden over the weekend. It was our first time trying seafood, so we were excited for the experience. The place was packed, but we managed to get a table. However, we had to grab the menu ourselves, which was fine but slightly unexpected. We ordered a sharing platter, a separate lobster, a starter, and some drinks. The starter was absolutely amazing, but unfortunately, the main dish lacked flavor. For the shared platter, we were only given one sauce, which felt a bit limited. Additionally, we had to ask for lobster tools, as they weren’t provided on the table. While this isn’t a huge issue, small details like this can make a big difference in the overall experience. Another minor inconvenience was exploring the menu before our visit. The main app’s menu was a bit confusing, so we ended up checking the menu on JustEat instead, which helped us decide. Overall, it was a mixed experience. The atmosphere and starter were great, but attention to detail and flavor in the main dish could be improved.

    The staff were very overwhelmed with the amount of people that were there on a Saturday Night. Regardless of reservation, there was a 40 minute wait. The server wasn’t even present until we reminded them we existed. We also had difficulties ordering because they kept being taken away to answer questions from other staff members during the order. It was very difficult. The food was great but some of the seafood was overcooked which was disappointing. There was some things that lacked seasoning though and were a bit bland such as the rice.
