   We had an excellent dining experience. Our waiter Sergio, provided us with good, friendly service at a nice pace. We did not feel rushed and enjoyed a relaxing meal. The food was served hot, fresh and was delicious. Would highly recommend dining at The Shanty.

   Great service, drinks, and food. Braised ribs were delicious… Fried chicken was delicious, but maybe needed some more flavor/ seasoning underneath on the chicken itself…

   My party of four was seated as soon as we arrived. Our server, Michael, was wonderful. we started with the Chicken Wings that were crispy , and flavorful. The short ribs over polenta was outstanding seasoned to perfection. Finished with a brownie Sunday that was out of this world! Will definetely go back.

   We went to Brunch, had a reservation and were sat right away. I had the Breakfast Burrito, it was delicious! My mom had breakfast omelet filled with bacon, cheese and tomatoes. My daughter had The Shanty Breakfast with yummy Sourdough toast. Server was very attentive and friendly. Worth a visit!

   The service was outstanding. The food was very good. We had the mussels followed by warm lobster rolls with butter. Very good cocktails. The others in our party had desserts which they loved. The sound level was fairly high, but we could still have a nice conversation without screaming.
