Located in a building full of eateries/ restaurants serving varied cuisine local, asian, western, etc. There’s only one Shell-Out though. Place is spacious with ample seatings. Window is with view of the lake, the Iron Mosque and walkway below. Below view include the night activities such as bicycle ride, electric scooters and other rides available for rent. Nice internal atmosphere for dining. Lighting and ventilation is adequate for dinner. Ambience is simple but cozy. Food quality is always good and fresh at Shell-Out with the awesome signature sauce. Service is courteous and friendly. The waitress serving my family even help with cracking and opening the Crab shell. Extra service well appreciated. Pricing is acceptable with the quality of food. It a good place serving fresh and good quality seafood with pleasant and professional service.

Dropped by Shell Out® Putrajaya for a seafood feast and went straight for the Ocean’s Delight Set 2. The set came loaded with fresh and juicy crabs, prawns, clams, and even broccoli, corn, and potatoes, all drenched in their signature spicy Cajun-style sauce. Every bite had that rich, buttery heat that seafood lovers dream of. The sauce clings perfectly to the shellfish and sides. Paired it with plain white rice which balanced out the bold, spicy flavour of the seafood perfectly. Service was quick and friendly, and the staff were happy to offer glove refills and water without needing to ask. The ambience is relaxed and casual - great for friends, family, or special seafood nights. Ocean’s Delight Set 2 is perfect for sharing - fresh, filling, and full of bold flavour. If you’re in Putrajaya and craving seafood, Shell Out is the place to go.

Celebrated my beloved’s birthday here and overall the service was great. The seafood boil sauce was a little too thick for my liking (if you lick it directly, it can feel a bit overwhelming and salty) That said, the seafood itself was fresh and tasty. Will definitely come here again. The total was RM304 but we got discount so it was RM274+-

I was so excited to find this place. I really wanted some American style seafood. I've been to Louisiana many times and understood Cajun style seafood and immediately went to this place. I will be going back. Everything was good, the service was superb. Please check out this place.
