We are Randy &amp; Karen Basi, owners of A.W. Shucks Cocktail &amp; Oyster Bar since July of 2023. At the heart of our journey to owning A. W. Shucks is a shared passion for seafood, community and being in a place where people enjoy great food and good company.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d557f9a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d557f9a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0.14in;\">From the moment we stepped into this small but vibrant and charismatic little town of Carmel By-The-Sea more than 30 years ago, we instantly knew this was a special place. After several visits, we decided someday we would own a home here. Fast forward 12 years in 2005 that \u201cSomeday Came\u201d and soon we became locals and regulars at our favorite place: A.W. Shucks Cocktail &amp; Oyster Bar.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-10b122d elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"10b122d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0.14in;\">Why A.W. Shucks? Because consistently, we were greeted by the most<br \/>welcoming and friendly staff and given a menu showcasing an<br \/>array of fresh and delicious dining choices including several<br \/>seafood and traditional starters, salads and combination platters.<br \/>We especially fell in love with their fresh oysters, crab cakes<br \/>and fish and chips. After several visits we developed a craving<br \/>for the clam chowder, tuna melt, prime rib and turkey sandwiches<br \/>to name a few.\u00a0 We learned A.W. Shucks was originally Whitney\u2019s Bar, established 1933 shortly after the prohibition and became A.W. Shucks in 1992 and is known for its vast selection of high-end spirits including<br \/>bourbon and scotch, which is played along the original solid oak bar which gives it a warm, inviting saloon-like feel and are a reminder of days past. Let\u2019s not forget the beautiful, picturesque hand painted ocean mural on the walls. This mural over the years has become unmistakably recognizable and somewhat iconic background for many photos.<\/p><p style=\"margin-bottom: 0.14in;\">\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-14e32cf elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"14e32cf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0.14in;\">When A.W. Shucks became available, we jumped at the opportunity. With a mix of ambition, hard work, and a deep respect for the restaurant\u2019s history, we\u2019re proud to carry on the legacy of this beloved spot. We are honored to be a part of this amazing place while keeping the original recipes and only adding a few personal touches. We wish to continue to make A W Shucks a place where people from all over want to return time and time again. Come for a visit and perhaps stay for a lifetime of good food, laughter and memories.
