The owner, Xinh, is a world famous owster shucker. If you have never been here, you need to go just for the experience. If you are an oyster lover, you will be in heaven! more

I read all the reviews here before deciding to add my two cents. I can understand those who gave this restaurant five stars. I"d do that . But, I can also understand the one with one star. We've eaten here several times already. Xinh's is not consistent. However, It is surprising to find a restaurant of Xinh's quality in Shelton... more

For those travelling to Olympic National Park and cruising along Hwy 101, Xinh's in Shelton is one of those remarkable finds that you will rave about forever. For those of us who live nearby, it is a gem. Xinh's is a small, rather modest , restaurant that serves some of the best asian-pacific seafood you will find. If you love... more

I agree that the food is wonderful and that this place would be packed every day if located in a metro area. The service is also top-notch, and the atmosphere quaint. I ate at this restaurnt during a week and half excursion in the Pacific Northwest. If I could go back to any one restaurant from that trip, this would... more

Three of us just dined at Xinh's restaurant last weekend. As is our habit, we each ordered something different so we could taste as much of the menu as possible. The Thai egg rolls and baked oysters on the halfshell appetizers were superb. One of us had the seafood soup (mussels, clams, calamari, plus more), another had the clams and... more

My father and I are oyster lovers and heard about this place in an article in the Tacoma News Tribune. Anybody who does contract work for the state of Washington in Olympia must be good. So we made the long trip to Shelton from the west sound and we were not disappointed. Other reviews stating that this place is overrated... more

We had heard about this restaraunt in the past and intended to stop but she was either not open when we went through or we had already eaten. Then, we saw her featured on the Mike Rowe Dirty Jobs program and we had to try it!!! This time was the charm. We had her geo ducks and they were wonderufl.... more

I ate here on 12/30 for my birthday. First of all, let me say the service was great. Things got off to a very good start with the appetizers. We ordered 1/2 dozen oysters on the 1/2 shell. 9 came out, including 2 of a different variety that I had asked about, but decided to order a different kind. The... more

Xihn's was highly recommended in Shelton and we went. The sauces were over done and the actual seafood barely recognizable to the palate. This restaurant doesn't cook seafood they slaughter it, it was horrible and all in our party were very very disappointed with the food. If you don't like to taste seafood when eating seafood then this place will... more

I really don't want to write this review but I am compelled to do so. (I want to keep Xinh's all to myself) I can tell you this: if Xinh's was located in New York, Chicago, San Francisco or Seattle you would have to call weeks ahead to get a table for dinner; and it would be worth it. The... more
