Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the linguine pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta and set aside.
In a large skillet or sauté pan, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat until the butter is melted.
Add the minced garlic and chopped shallot to the pan. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant and translucent, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Pour in the white wine and bring the mixture to a simmer. Allow it to reduce by half, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the cleaned clams and mussels to the skillet, cover with a lid, and let them cook for 5-6 minutes, or until the shells open. Discard any shells that do not open.
Stir in the peeled and deveined shrimp, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the shrimp turn pink and are fully cooked.
Add the cherry tomatoes, heavy cream, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using). Stir to combine and simmer for 2 minutes.
Season the sauce with salt and black pepper to taste. Toss in the cooked linguine pasta, gently mixing to coat the pasta in the sauce.
If the sauce appears too thick, gradually add some of the reserved pasta water until the desired consistency is achieved.
Sprinkle the dish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately. Optionally, top with grated Parmesan cheese for extra flavor.
