Dine at Shorty's

We also had an EXCELLENT evening at Shorty's, including meeting Shorty. Next time I am going to get the ceviche as it looked incredible at the table next to us.

My dh said the gumbo was as good as that found in Louisiana! That will be a great thing on a cold day - gumbo and looking out at the beach!

I thought it was named after Shorty, "in memoriam"....I did not think he was still with us (except in spirit....)

Maybe one of those deals like with football mascots where you get the name passed down to five plus different critters over the years.

This is true, maybe Gidget met Dewey? Dewey is a current member of Henry's family. She is a white bull-dog mix. You can find a beautiful portrait of Dewey (by T. Cline) located above the bar downstairs at Shorty's.

Or did you meet Henry and think he was Shorty? Wouldn't be the first time! ;-)

On a serious note, Shorty was a wonderful and spirited Westie Mix who is greatly missed.

Best thing about Shorty's is the sushi - they were lucky enough to steal that sushi chef from chops on 30a and thank god. I don't feel bad going in to eat sushi in shorts and flip flops... Oh yeah, and the prices are FANtastic!

LOL what was I saying?? I met the owner hee hee - I knew Shorty was a dog yet I called the owner (don't know his name - beard, really nice) Shorty.

My bad!

I have a suggestion. NA beer. I no longer drink but with certain dishes I LOVE having something besides just water or tea or juice. I asked the waiter (who was great btw) if Shorty's had O'Douls or Kaliber, etc... and he said no they didn't carry any NA - perhaps you guys could stick a few six packs in the fridge as I WILL BE BACK for that ceviche!

Thanks in advance,
Gidget

Some friends came to visit yesterday so I took them to Shorty's. I got the ceviche - which was very refreshing! She got the oyster poboy and her husband got the fish sandwich. The view yesterday was fantastic!

Here's a few pics.






The generous fish sandwich and that's potato salad - my camera didn't pick up on the nice chunks of potato. I had the pasta salad with my ceviche - a wonderful dill twist that again, on a hot day was nice and refreshing. Also, they serve regular iced tea AND iced green tea which was a plus for my friends.



It was the perfect place to take friends - especially on a day like yesterday when the water was so lovely.

Sushi?? Did you say sushi??

You can order limited sushi upstairs, but the sushi bar is downstairs and you can pull up a stool to enjoy.

Thanks SWGB!!
I've been longing for great sushi, but my "deerlike" sphere of evening travel precludes trips to OFFH to partake.. because with sushi MUST come saki

Yummy lunch, huh? Good to see you, and once again, you got the hottie thing going! Lunch put me in in the right frame of mind to handle the carpool line from hell. I survived, thanks to wenches.

Definitely Grayt Wench Lunch!
Thanks for the reinforcement!! I need all the help I can get.
SOOO glad the carpool line didn't succeed in destroying your harmonic balance... 'cuz that kind of traffic could have the ability to induce potential "postal"

You can get sushi at lunch there? How did I miss that?

Good food, lovely company, great service, and a gorgeous view of a green flag day at the beach.

Shorty's Sushi Hours

Hi Everyone!

At this time, Shorty's serves Sushi every night from 5PM 'til close! Although, it is a lot of fun to watch John and Bom work their magic while seated at the Sushi bar downstairs, you can order Sushi from any seat in the house!

Thanks,

Henry and Staff

Hubby & I had a great back to school celebration lunch at Shorty's today! He loved the oyster po-boy while I enjoyed the Mahi sandwich. It was delicious! We loved seeing so many familiar faces and will definitely be back soon!

Thanks SWGB!!

Definitely save the trip, that other establishment has hit absolute rock bottom, even with the sushi.

Sushi & Sake

After the beach last night we stopped in at Shorty's to try the sushi & sake.
We asked John to just get creative and fix us whatever he was in the mood to make. Man-o-man did he ever fix us up!!!

John, I don't know what that second beautiful, glorious, decadent, delicious creation was... but you'd better name it:
MAGIC!!

Folks, if you like sushi then get thee to Shorty's ASAP and visit...

JOHN * the SORCERER of SUSHI!!

We are headed down for Labor Day next week. Shorty's is at the list of our list of new places to try! Cannot wait!!!

Have heard so many great things about Shorty's & the menu looks delicious! Can't wait to try it out! Gotta get my husband to take me on a date soon!

Went today for lunch with a large group. Love the colors & the art by Teresa Kline on the walls! Great view & atmosphere. I had a grilled fish sandwich with fries (the fries are great!), the tarter was very tasty. Some friends had the burgers & they looked & smelled amazing (just because I am vegetarian doesn't mean I hate meat, I just choose not to eat it...that's another story!). Sean, my husband, had the veggie sandwich, I didn't try it, but he ate it all. We had a great lunch & the prices can't be beat! Can't wait to go back at dinner to try the sushi!

I've had such a great week in SoWal. I decided for my birthday dinner I wanted to give Shorty's a try! So glad I did. Wonderful food, service and loved the decor! Thank's Shorty's!

One question, do you have desert? I was busy ordering dinner and didn't notice. We will definitely be back!

We took my Mom on Sunday night- she loved it! It was nice watching the stormy looking clouds at sunset while eating a yummy dinner. Thanks's Shorty's!

FYI- tried the $5 happy hour priced margarita. Tastes like a $15 margarita.

We were down 9-5- thru 9-12. We made the Shorty's dinner on the 9th. It did not disappoint. The filet was unbelievable, the pork chop with mustard sauce ,I think that's what they called it , was as good as any chop I've ever had. We will be back as often as possible.

Had lunch at Shorty's on Wednesday. Had the Grouper sandwich (fried) and it was fantastic. Husband had the cheeseburger. Cooked as ordered and well seasoned. We also had some ceviche to start which was really tasty. The chips that they serve with the ceviche were kickazz!
