The Shack, situated on Gerard Street in downtown Huntington, has closed. The seafood-centric restaurant was the table-service offshoot of the The Shack in Centerport, a seasonal outdoor counter-serve spot for clam rolls, burgers and hot dogs.
The Huntington restaurant garnered one-and-a-half stars in a review in March of this year, with praise for such items as its briny whole baked clams oreganata, crab and corn chowder and “knockout” blackened tuna salad.
