Not named shaggys.... did that last night looking to go towards ocean springs possibly? We use to go to this place called Leo’s, but it’s no longer there.

Looking for some live music possibly.

The place that took over Leo's, Glory Bound Gyro Co, is family friendly. They have music as well. They kept the pizza oven and still do pizzas

Half Shell - it’s my favorite restaurant right now.

Favorites:

Dynamite lobster - it’s on the sushi menu, but it is light fried chunks of lobster with a great sauce. This is my favorite item off any menu at any restaurant right now.

Oyster sampler: charbroiled oysters the usual way, charbroiled with a cajun sauce, oysters Rockefeller, and oysters Bienville. The Bienvile are the best - they are topped with herbs, mushrooms, crab, shrimp, bacon, and Italian breadcrumbs. Sometimes I skip the sampler and just go all in on the Bienville.

Crab & Shrimp dip is also excellent.

Seafood gumbo - one of the better gumbos I’ve had lately - thick and rich.

I always get one of the fish selections for my entree - the herb encrusted grouper is excellent, the bacon & pecan crusted redfish is great, and one of the things I like about Half Shell is they always have redfish, snapper, and grouper that you can get grilled or blackened if you don’t want one of the other selections.

Spent a couple days at Hard Rock earlier this week so the wife and I could eat at Half Shell and Ruth’s. Half Shell was the better meal of the two.

ETA: There’s a Half Shell in the Hard Rock, another across the street from Hard Rock, and I think another in Gulfport.
