Chicago’s Best Seafood Restaurants | Eater Chicago

"It has the ambiance of a dive bar, but the food at Half Shell makes up for the environment. The Lakeview oyster bar has operated since 1968, providing diners with bivalves, king crab legs, soft shell crabs, and fish for less than what comparable places charge. During summertime, the front patio is a busy attraction. Bring some bills because it’s cash only." - Sam Nelson
