We were visiting the area, and were appealed to this restaurant due to its old time diner look and…read morethe vintage car out front. Once we were inside, that vibe continued. The vintage diner feel was cozy, and the Coca-Cola light fixtures were unique. Each table also had its own vintage jukebox. We came on a busy Sunday morning, but got lucky and were sat right away. From the beginning, and throughout our experience, the staff were very friendly. Our sever brought us drinks within minutes, and we were able to put in our orders pretty quick. Like I said, it was a busy Sunday, so it took awhile for us to receive our food. But this gave my wife and I time to talk, and enjoy the ambiance. I ordered the breakfast lasagna (had never seen this before) with white toast and a side of corned beef hash. When the food came out, it was warm and fresh. The breakfast lasagna had a nice flavor from the peppers and onions and meats that were baked inside. The base was made from what seemed like mashed potatoes which threw me off a little, but wasn't bad. The toast had a good toast to it, and was nicely buttered. I am a corned beef hash lover, and Shorty's was pretty good! The flavors meshed well together and the texture was great. My wife ordered the sausage gravy and biscuits which was not great. The sausage gravy was lacking flavor, with the main taste being cream. The sausage within the gravy was cut up sausage links, and for myself and my wife at least, we prefer ground sausage. Lastly, the biscuits were nothing to write home about. They were not bad but they didn't wow. Overall, I gave Shorty's a three because the food didn't wow me. There was not anything wrong with the food we had at all, and we will probably be back in the future to try some of their other food. Otherwise, my wife and I also loved the feel of the diner itself.

When we had an error trying to pay with the pay tablet all of the managers that came by were extremely polite and not mean. This means a lot to me as I am very scared of adults yelling at me. We had a really good time, we really liked the food, we had the chicken & gnocchi soup, salad , breadstick, the sirloin, and the shrimp and steak bucatini and I really like the gnocchi it was very soft and the main dishes had very vast favoring. everything was a good eating temperature not too hot I had to wait and not cold. We especially enjoyed the cake. We had the Black tie cake even though they had to pull a fresh one from the freezer it was really creamy. We also liked the cheesecake with the strawberries and I liked how it wasn't overpoweringly sweet. The atmosphere was very nice and warm though my boyfriend thought he was going crazy as the lights dimmed.

Thinking oh great is this place closed. Do we need to find another place. The shear panic. All the signs say open so we went in. What a quiet little "truck stop" diner. So conveniently located. Easy on easy off. Ashamed it wasn't busier. So please go here and support the flying spatula so it stays! First off there is a lot of choices. Everything sounded good. Kiddo got a blueberry muffin. It came hot and delicious. He also got a slice of French toast. Both very good. Wife got the chicken tendies and fries. (She panicked and wasn't ready so she ordered the old reliable) As for me I ordered the turkey club and it was hands down top turkey club I've ever had. This skyscraper was massive. We bother ordered the homemade fries and they were meah. Better with some more salt. All in all I think we'll stop every year we're in town and will recommend to everyone headed that way.

We ended up having a great conversation with the sweet 87 year old owner and a plan to go back to try more of their food! The chili we had was a very good traditional chili. It came with some delicious homemade corn bread. The corn bread was a little on the sweet side, just the way I like it. Speaking with the owner we found out that she makes the desserts from scratch, including the pie crusts! She also makes the tomato sauce, lasagna, meatballs and everything is fresh and not frozen. Excited to go back and try some of the other food dishes! After hearing about the desserts, we tried the carrot cake and the banana cream pie. Both were good, but that banana cream pie, can't wait to go back and have another slice!
