    First time there for brunch. Upon walking in I knew we were in the right place by how busy it was. The rock crab and lobster Benedict’s were fabulous!! Our server Brian was efficient and attentive and friendly. Can’t wait to go back.

    Dinner at The Shanty was great. Have the Yam Fries, you won't be sorry. We had the Blackened Shrimp and the Brisket with Gnocchi. Both were well cooked and delicious. The gnocchi was heavenly. We took dessert home and it was slightly disappointing. One side of my cookie pie was hard as a rock. Maybe it would have been better had we had it at the restaurant, warmed and served with vanilla gelato. Our waitress was great, just the right amount of attentiveness. All in all a 5* experience.

    There were 4 of us celebrating our close friends graduation. Our server was great and attentive and made the whole experience special.we started off with drinks to toast our friend. We had pomegranate mimosas and they were delicious. For my brunch I had the chicken and biscuits with eggs and home fries. Everything was cooked to perfection. Others had the Benedict, Chilequiles, and an omelette. Everyone raved about their meals as well. We ended the meal with the toll house pie and blondie. Soooo gooood!! It was my friends first time here and I know we will all be back soon!!

    Delicious, creative menu. The scallops casolet and salmon dishes were especially good. Service unobtrusive but attentive.
