The waiter was lovely - the only problem was that the hot starter arrived almost at the same time as the oysters we ordered, so sat there getting cold… and then exactly the same thing happened with the main 🙁

We were there maybe over a year ago. The food is excellent and service quite outstanding, special mention for Mery who was attentive but not intrusive. Everything was served at appropriate and timely fashioned. Thank you "The Shell". The only negative is that they have not updated the food and drinks menu on opentable.

Great lunch at The Shell pre a visit to the British Museum nearby. We went for the large cold seafood platter and it was fabulous. Very varied, fresh and good value. Lovely service. Recommended!

The food is subpar, oysters were ok, but the stake - probably the worst I’ve had at a restaurant. Crab legs - tasteless and water from being frozen. Lobster was ok-ish. Service was good. Won’t come back

The food quality this time was disappointing compared to our visit seven months ago, when everything was much better.
