Santa Barbara Shellfish Company

That Clam Chow and any thing with Lobster makes you want to stay in Santa Barbara longer👍

Great food, great beer , great wine and great people. The box crab is simply to die for! It's live, local and as fresh as it can get. For a light lunch , order a 2,5lb one to share for two.

The uni is really fresh. Six pieces of it with scallops and lime for less than $20.

The lobster brisque soup is to die for. Definitely a must side dish with your entree. Experienced the best hospitality from the bartender . Do not leave Santa Barbara without visiting this place.

Totally worth the walk down the otherwise tourist trap wharf! Best shellfish we had in SB. Great selection, lots of daily specials . Shrimp is awesome, oysters and calamari linguini too! Sit outside.

Local crab literally right off the boat. As a kid who grew up on the Gulf of Mexico, I have high expectations for fresh seafood . This met them. So. Darn. Good.

The best fried calamari I've had in my life. It was fun watching the crabs try to escape their imminent demise.

You have to be here!!!! It worth waiting in a line for it

They have the freshest seafood in town and the cook has been there for 14 years! Everything here is good but you gotta get a Bloody Mary

I got a Califórnia king crab and it was wonderful. Nice draft beers with a fair price . Very nice staff .

Pretty good spot... but their Lobster Roll was more of a Lobster Salad Roll vs. a bonafide roll with tasty fresh chunks of lobster .

We recommend lobster tacos ! Yum! Clam chowder is delicious! Don't forget to wash it all down with a Pyramid on tap !

Fish , fish , fish ! Crab cake , lobster you name it! Very typical, very good

Go around the corner, order from the window, and eat on the picnic benches on the left. Best view and no wait!

Lobster bisque is really a must! The Crab Louie was fresh but not very tasty. Good and fast service !

Great, fresh ingredients make for some very tasty food. I had the breakfast of champions - crab cakes and a bloody mary (with a spicy pickled green bean !) Nom, nom, nom!!!

Great food. Try the crab ceviche

Try crabs and fish . Portions are big, everything’s tasty.

The calamari pasta was very good and they have great onion rings !

Rock crab . Scallops . Lobster . The trifecta!

Couldn't choose :) every thing is simple but fresh and delicious!

Crab - prepared fresh, very tasty. Sign up on the waiting list on the front.

Try the steamed local crab and take a table outside !

Steamed crab . Lobster bisque . Need I say more? Eat inside where u can watch them cook.

Awesome rock crap special, great attention. So good music .

Shellfish 🦞 and must eat place!!!

Crab . Yum.

Found a hair alike thing in my pasta , what else I can say 😖

Cioppino is completely wrong - bad broth mainly because they don’t use fish & simply add oil to it, local crab has a very very hard shell & is not cracked prior to serving. Lobster pasta is average.

Lobster specials, shrimp specials, and good view !

Expect a wait, but expect that wait to be worth it!

i'v unblocked the special and the manger said that she didn't know this application and that there r a lot of fake website... so foursquare, for your notice

Will come back again for clam chowder :) bisque is okay

Get the cioppino !

The Abalone is awesome!

Sweet seafood resto on the end of the pier .

It is remarkable place to eat shrimp ,oyster and calamari .

Good quality seafood but expect a 45 minute wait for lunch

The crab sandwich is ok. It's better to ask the especially dishes.

Abalone ! (and the portions of everything else are bigger too, for such a small place!

Rock crab special is stunningly good

Trendy place by the sea!

The spider crab isn't worth the hype. Stick with the sweeter rock crab . Yummy!

Awesome!!!

Los fried clam strip are excellent

window line . You'd think that they could have one person taking orders and another to assemble & deliver . But NOOO. So inefficient long wait

Sit outside , sign the wait list by the front door

Be ready to wait in line , expect a 18% tip to be automatically added to your bill. Shrimp tacos come w just 3 shrimp . Instead of a 3 lb crab we received two small ones, avoid ceviche . Overrated.

Amaaazing!! Try everything, at least once!

Great food and a Great view !
