    Great dining experience. Food was wonderful, service very good. Was a little loud, but that seems to be the norm, these days. We'll be back.

    Great food, excellent service. Very fun waiter. I think the pricing was great and the lobster roll was delicious. Definitely a nice place to get out of the sun and have dinner.

    As always the food and the service was impeccable at the Shanty. I had the Eggs Benedict with rock crab and the French Toast. Everything was delicious and finished off the meal with a Dark & Stormy cocktail. Our server was polite and attentive and I hope I remembered your name correctly Jeff :).

    Menu and beverages were both terrific. They accommodated a food allergy for one guest. Overall, it was very nice.

    Five people in our party and each one loved their meals and drinks. We mistakenly thought our waitress must be an owner because she was so attentive!

    The $28 scallop pasta dish was all pasta! The scallops were far and few for the Ala cart price. My husband had the TV dinner special and expressed disappointment that chicken lacked flavor-seasonings. We will wait awhile before returning.
