First time here and will definitely be back! Super chic and intimately cozy decor. With the tin styled ceiling, leather chairs and rough grained tables, it really had a genuine speak easy atmosphere. The food was devine! Had the short rib, mashed and asparagus for dinner and the pumpkin tres leche cake for dessert... so delicious!! Service was impeccable. They were getting ready to split the venue for a private event in one part with public access still going on when we were getting ready to leave. Noise level increased as more patrons coming in as we finished up, but not too loud. Nice place to meet friends or for date night. Recommend!!

Please never change. Food always very creative, delicious, worth sharing. Service feels personal, delivered with joy. Atmosphere feels real- great energy, people happy to be there, dynamic. As a 61 year old, I feel like a part of the cool crowd. I simply cannot get enough. I’m sure I should be trying other places but I can’t because I just have to have the potato chip and ice cream dessert.

We love the Shanty and the Corner House, same owner. Kara has taken a former local bar and turned it into an incredible restaurant for all. Normally you can tell a restaurant by the cars in the parking lot. Tonight there were pick up trucks, SUVs, older model cars and a Rolls Royce. The staff is tremendous, always smiling, seemingly a "family" and you are part of their family. The food is always incredible. Great portions, tasty, hot or cold, depending on the item with an innovative menu. Tonight the specials were too good to resist and then there is the "Big Ole Burger" another favorite. It was our second time this week, the first was a takeout after a long workday. The second, a meetup with friends.

Jessica our service professional was great. Her recommendations were spot on. It was a Monday and the restaurant was full but not aggressively loud. Nice atmosphere. Will go back when in the area
