The freshest seafood in Knoxville is at Shuck Raw Bar & Ale. The lobster bisque is rich and the clam chowder is thick and creamy. The fish is delivered daily and you can taste the difference.

Oysters at Shuck Raw Bar & Ale are always perfectly fresh and the selection rotates with what is in season. The shrimp scampi is buttery and garlicky over housemade pasta. A seafood lover's paradise.

The whole fried fish at Shuck Raw Bar & Ale is crispy outside and flaky inside. The tropical salsa on top is the perfect complement. One of the best seafood experiences in Knoxville.

Shuck Raw Bar & Ale is our anniversary dinner spot every year. The seafood tower for two is spectacular and the grilled lobster tail is cooked to perfection. Worth every penny for a special occasion.

Casual seafood done right at Shuck Raw Bar & Ale. The fish tacos are incredible with fresh mahi and the shrimp po boy is loaded. Great lunch spot in Knoxville with a fun atmosphere.

Solid seafood restaurant in Knoxville. Shuck Raw Bar & Ale has good grilled salmon and the calamari is not chewy at all. Reasonable prices and the wine list pairs well with the menu.

Best crab cakes in Knoxville are at Shuck Raw Bar & Ale. All lump crab, minimal filler, and served with a remoulade that is housemade. The chefs clearly love what they do.
