A return visit after a year. Took the plunge with ordering a lobster roll and onion rings. Super generous portion of lobster with the melted butter to pour over! Husband had steamed clams and fried clams with fries. Both excellent. Staff is very friendly and...kept the water and tea flowing. A must for your visit to Sanibel.More

We always make sure to visit The Clam Shack while vacations in swfl. Always great service and the vibe is here is casual. The food here is served promptly and always delicious. From the calamari to the clams everything is great!

We enjoyed the steam clams as an appetizer. Nice fresh salad. I had the crab stuffed shrimp. Everything was delicious

Great food, fast service. My daughter can’t eat dairy, and our server Mario went out of his way to make sure she knew any item that could possibly have dairy products. That care meant a lot to us! Everything we had was good!

Friendly and fast service. The whole belly clam basket and clam roll were a little pricey but worth the money. Quaint, fun place for a quick lunch and beverage.

The best fried oysters and clams I have had on the island. Lobster rolls and "chowdah" are awesome too. I had to come back twice.

I left this restaurant feeling sad for them. This restaurant has always served excellent food in a casual atmosphere. Let me say up front that the food has not suffered, but almost everything else has. And by suffered I mean badly affected by rising prices...and a lack of employees. After being seated (by a waiter who looked almost comically put-upon) we waited over ten minutes for anyone to pay attention to us. We were seated near the bar and the bartender must have noticed because he brought over a couple of waters. During our long wait I noticed the air conditioning vent in the ceiling was dripping water onto my head, so I had to move my seat. Thank G-d for the bartender because he ended up being our de facto waiter, as well as helping out the staff in the whole place. Our clams and onion rings were as good as ever but I found the whole episode a bit depressing. Hang in there, Clam Shack! Like most Americans you are probably weathering this Cat. 5 economic storm and doing your best while waiting for it to pass. We will be back!More

It's not fancy, but the food is amazing. Had a lunch of friend clams and sweet potato fries and it was heaven. Our server was great - attentive and very nice. We will be back!

Yummmmmo! We are from Maine and let me tell you their lobster melt was probably the best I’ve ever had 👍 The owner is originally from New England and he clearly knows what he is doing. This is a must for a lobster lover!

Last night my husband and I decided to give The Clam Shack a try based on other reviews and the photos. Well, it didn't disappoint. The lobster roll was packed with lobster, the roll was so fresh and yummy, and the fries were hot and...crispy. We both highly recommend this little gem of a restaurant.More

I ordered what was pictured, lobster roll and onion rings. I sat close to the kitchen area watched the lady preparing the meal. They have a secret spice like KFC…. I have had all kinds of breading on onion rings, this breading wasn’t heavy it...was light crispy and the onion was perfectly cooked with the batter. No onion drag you bit the onion ring and got a crisp bite. Simply delicious! Now for the Lobster roll, it is pricy but it was the best tasting FRESH Lobster that simply melted in your mouth, I ate the sandwich with a fork and knife didn’t want anything to go to waist and I simply licked my plate clean.More

Was looking for a seafood spot close enough after dropping our bikes at Finnemore’s after a 23 mile ride on the island and this place popped up with rave reviews and a 2 minute walk. Others reviews were spot on-the clam chowder was the best...we’ve had in a long time. Cod, clams and waffle sweet potato fries were just the way we like them. Highly recommend!More
