The Shack — Restaurant in Town of Huntington

My husband and I have been Shack fans for years; this is our second visit there this summer. We ordered a cold lobster roll, crab cakes, and fried clams. While still very good, I noticed the portion of lobster salad in the cold lobster roll was definitely smaller than last year's. The amount of whole lobster pieces was also less (most of it was ground up lobster). If you are as picky as I am w/lobster rolls (lol) it wasnt as satisfying as I expected.

Overall, it came off as cheap with their portions and value. Definitely not worth $40 a roll, and I left still hungry and...

The food was great as always...but the staff working there had little to desire....as though they reallly didnt want to be there or they were super tired. We were 2 people who showed up on a cooler night. We spent over $70. I would have hoped they would have appreciated us coming & giving them our business...but I think they could care less. The younger girl was actually sitting on the floor behind the counter & the other lady behind the counter was leaning on the counter eating food with her fingers. Certainly didn't give us a warm &...
