Pinch me awake because I’m still dreaming of the crispy salmon over root hash, sigh. Delicious. The gnocchi swimming in beef short rib and Gorgonzola? The absolute best little pillows of heaven and the short rib payed homage to the life once lived. The yam appetizer with cilantro garlicky goodness dip? Restrained myself from dipping and licking my finger it was that good. We agreed our meal at The Shanty was the best quality and value for the quality we can remember enjoying in a looooooonnnnnngggg time. Thank you Shanty we’ll be back soon—before the salmon rotates off the fall menu!

Best burger in town. If you are lucky enough to have Mike V as your waiter and Haley as your bartender you will be assured of a great time. Always a friendly, happy vibe and the food is consistent from visit to visit. We'll be back soon.

This was our first time dining at this restaurant. We had reservations and were sat down upon arrival. We were sat at a booth near the large bar area. The atmosphere was upbeat and lively. Our waiter, Sergio was excellent. Greeted us quickly and was personable and friendly. His recommendations were perfect. Salads were fresh and well proportioned. The short rib special was flavorful, fresh and also well proportioned. The food was excellent!! Highly recommended The Shanty and will definitely be back.

Revisited this fine establishment for our anniversary meal after spending one of our very first dates here. Our server Karen was considerate of our special day and provided perfect service. The food was well prepared and hit the mark on every course that hit the table. The Shanty is a special restaurant and a must-go for anyone on the fence of trying something new.
