We had a group of nine that dropped in Shortys unannounced. Our wonderful waitress, Katie, and her teammates did not miss a beat. We tried all the appetizers, flatbread, and nine of the entrées. All were loved.

Fabulous food with great service. This is a hidden gem with some of the best almond crusted haddock I’ve ever had! The cod is great snd my spouse enjoyed the steak. Service was attentive friendly snd accommodated a special diet. I highly recommend! Side salad...was like a full dinner salad, too! Very tasty!More
Just good, not awesome as previous reviews. Seven in our party. First timers. The two that chose Salmon said it was perfect. We didnt think there was anything awesome with the steaks. If area, we would give it another try. We wouldnt make a special...trip, like we did this time.More
Food is pricey, and its pretty dark inside.We were not impressed.We were there during the off hours.
Today I had quite possibly the best 8oz filet, I've ever had. Wow. Talk about melt in the mouth. The steak I ate today, was the best ever! And they make a pretty good Long Island as well. I grew up in Garrett for many...years, and there have been a few standards the residents had for a long time in and around town. We know who they were. But they are gone. The only one that remains, that I recognize, is out at the Mile Corner. I recently moved back to the area after a long absence, and I very much love the fact that I can get a meal of this quality, and service for the the price. Melted in my mouth!!! And Ill go along with some of the other comments. Everybody seemed to work very well together. Fine Dining, the comfortable small town way. See you all soon!!More
We eat at a fine dining restaurant 20x a year. This was one of the best. The new owners have taken a old small town resturant with a good reputation and turned it into a great facility. The physical facility has doubled in size and...if totally today and professionally designed. Management is totally professional. Never saw staff work together as well. Menu is great and covers all bases. Food preparation was fantastic. This is our new go to place.More
We were driving our 1930 Model A through Garrett and stumbled upon Shorty's around dinner time. Stopped on a whim and had an excellent meal. While we didn't have a steak since we'd been eating heavy meals all week, we enjoyed our salads very much....They were fresh and the chicken was tasty. We hope to make it back again when we're in the area.More
Great place, nice vibe, lots of menus items and selections. Very substantial list of seafood, steak, pasta specials to choose from. Kelly at the bar was awesome. My wife had seafood and I had the prime rib, couldn’t have asked for better. Prices were reasonable,...service was great, I would go back in a heartbeat.More
High-end steakhouse. Reasonably priced. Great service. I’ve had a number of things off the menu, both lunch and dinner. The steaks are excellent. The barrel Old Fashioneds are excellent. Seating is limited, and parking is on the street. Definitely worth a drive
Went there for a Friday nice dinner expecting a good meal. Had a great meal. The menue was cutting edge,expertly prepared using top quality ingredients. Had a prime rib that was delicious with virtually no scrap. Service was outstanding and highly professional. Overall as good...as any big city steakhouse.More
Lunch: First of all, their regular menu is excellent. The wraps (teriyaki chicken is my favorite) and burgers (jalapeño bacon tops my list) are excellent. But 90% of the time I get their lunch special. It is always unique and always tastes amazing!! Dinner: Some...people just “get” food. Shorty’s chefs are those people. The dinner specials are great quality, great taste, and great presentation. I pick Shorty’s over ANY restaurant in the region.More
Loved the quality of food and atmosphere at Shorty's. Our server was awesome, and was the perfect balance of accomodating but not hovering. Drinks we're on par and overall an excellent find. We will be back!
Shorty's is a great place for steak or fried fish dinners 10 miles north of Fort Wayne in the small town of Garrett. The steaks are large as are the sides. Prices are reasonable. It is best to reserve in advance as this place is...small and fills up quickly, especially on Friday and Saturday nights. You cannot find a better steak dinner for the price anywhere in Fort Wayne.More
We went there at 6:30 on a Saturday night and was able to get right in at the bar rail. Our food was amazing and the service by Amanda was top notch!! Cant believe I hadn't been there soon. Will definitely go back. Dinner and...drinks for 2 was only $50.More
Maybe my expectations were too high? Service was excellent, My salad was a sad little salad with lettuce that reminded me of a high school lunch room, my steak / filet was cooked properly, the steak itself was served cool (not hot), the sweet potato...was also served cool (not hot), and the filet was NOT good meat. My sons sirloin was grisly, my wife’s Chicken was WAY over seasoned but at least it and the potato were served hot. I dropped $175 bucks for 5 adults and 1 child leaving me feeling taken advantage of. The meal reminded me of the last time I visited Outback Steakhouse. I expected a small place with fresh produce and a chef that cared what he/she served. I won’t be returning.More
