Shuck Shack in California

"I knew I wanted to head here before we even got into town - they had me at "Gilda"! Everything about this spot is a pure delight. Perfect seaside location with indoor and outdoor seating (all with a view). Sweet and friendly and helpful owners and staff. Absolutely scrumptious everything (we got a mushroom pizza, smoked fish dip, anchovies, orange wine). Record collection spanning Sade, LL, Jimmy Cliff, The Doobie Bros - what more is there to love! And they've only been in business for 1 month - so impressive, definitely rooting for them."

"Great oysters, extremely fresh, as would be expected. The staff were very green but friendly and with a good service minded attitude. This is not a lunch or dinner spot— just oysters or snacks and wine."

"Very fun oyster and wine bar. We got some self-shuck oysters and Matt from behind the bar showed us how to do it! Very fun! Good wine and great bread and butter!"

"Our favorite spot in Avila! The food menu is simple but it’s literally perfection and such a fun experience shucking your own oysters. We stopped by with our pup and grabbed seats in the cute backyard area where there’s plenty of spots in the shade or at the counter if you want to people. We had a bottle of petnat (loved it!) and a dozen oysters and both were exactly what we were looking for on a hot sunny day. Everything here is local, the petnat is from SLO and the oysters are from Morro Bay and mignonette is also made from locally grown ingredients. We love oysters and the ones from Morro Bay are in the top 3 we’ve had for sure. The service was top notch and the only suggestion I’d make is to stay open longer; the backyard had cute cafe lights and would be a fun hangout spot in the evenings."

"Sweet place with super yummy food. Great wine, pairings! Very helpful and knowledgeable staff. Gorgeous picturesque location."

"What an amazing experience! This place let's you do the work! Learn how to shucks an oyster while you sip on wine and snack. The pacific is inches away at this unique little spot! The team here are lovely and enjoy serving and telling you about all there is to explore. We enjoyed some wine cheese crackers ans oysters on the half. Go here for good food and good fun.

"We stopped in to try the Oysters and a Glass of wine. They have a great local of wines and diverse selection Thomas was so helpful and explained the wine selection. We had 1/2 dozen oysters"

"Very nice Tuesday in January during happy hour. Fast efficient service. Can’t go wrong with 30% of wine bottles."
