This feels like a true hidden gem and local dive with tons of locals and tourists pouring in all day long. The manager Karen was so friendly and attentive, she made my experience excellent by being so kind and warm!

For dinner we had to try the local favorite kettle chip baked cod with potatoes, which was the perfect mix of salty and crunchy.

This was a loud place with good-sized bar and a menu that changes daily it seemed. They had lots…read moreof unique choices on the menu. The service was okay while the food came out in a timely manner. I liked that some of the fish items listed the fishing vessel on the menu. Three appetizers were ordered which consisted of a beet pickled deviled egg ($4 each), chilled oysters (Half Dozen $18), and the local fluke crudo ($17). The egg had a crispy clam strip and espelette pepper. This was solid. I thought the clam strip was a little too overpowerful given the size of that and the egg. The pickled beet egg was interesting, and I liked how the filling was also under the egg, so the egg did not move. The Riverhawk oysters were fresh and tasty. The mignonette was simple and paired well. The crudo had an herb mayo, pickled ramps, kelp crisp, and pickled sugar kelp. This was alright. It seemed like fennel or a similar type of herb was used in one of the pickling items, which took over a little bit. The kelp crisp was nice and paired well with the fluke. For an entrée, I had the local scup a la plancha ($37). It came with Marshall Cove mussels, fondant potato, English peas, and a saffron emulsion. This was a nice sized portion. I thought the saffron emulsion was key and went together with everything else on the plate. The mussels were fresh again, and the potatoes were cooked perfectly. It was a well-done dish, but the use of scup made it feel more modest, but maybe that was the point, so what do I know? I also tried the scallop dish that came with green crab crispy rice, chili crispy, and a garlic aioli. The rice was very crispy, and it reminded me of a traditional hibachi rice, but elevated. The scallops had a perfect cook to them too. For dessert, the oyster ice cream ($10) was tried. It had to be tasted when it was on the menu. It had a slight briny flavor, but nothing too overpowerful. The ice cream itself was very creamy with a nice texture. I believe Greek yogurt was used, which probably helped with the oyster flavor that was incorporated. Will I go back? Sure.

Yes, there's usually a wait, but that's kind of the point. When a place is always busy, you know they're doing something right. We didn't mind at all and enjoyed the vibe while we waited. Kenzie was extremely helpful and even double checked a few menu items for my food intolerances, which I really appreciated. Customer service like that goes a long way. We both ended up ordering the seasonal Benedict special and it was absolutely delicious. Pro tip for next time (and for anyone planning ahead): put your name in online before you go. We'll definitely be doing that next visit.

My wife ordered the 'homemade' corned beef hash special and nothing special or homemade, tasted like right out of a can from Sysco Foodservice. Her home fries were well over done. My meal was a special omelette with 'small batch' sausage and apples with cheddar. How does a short order cook over cook (dead on arrival) eggs to the point they're dry ? Anyway I've Never sent back ages but did so this time. A new omelette was much better but the sausage apples and cheese just didn't taste good yuk ! The building is a nice big open space and very updated ambiance. We will not be returning to the Narragansett RI location again! FYI: Owners Anthony and Tina Ciao,

I found The Shanty on Yelp…read more The moment I opened the door I was greeted, by the owner, with the most upbeat personality and smile! She showed me to my table, brought a carafe of water, and welcomed me in. I was quickly welcomed by Sergio, my server, who shared the special and the soup of the day. Once I ordered my soda I took in the ambiance of the bar, new lights, and the rest of the restaurant. It's not a large building but they make every inch count. Now, the reason you're reading this review- THE FOOD. I ordered the Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich with a Caesar Salad. The chicken (photo below) was perfectly cooked, topped with hot honey, slaw, pickles, and ranch then placed on a soft brioche bun. The meal was reasonably priced as well at $33 which included tip. I will absolutely be back to the Shanty next time I'm in town.

The fries were great, sandwiches were also really good! Would like to come back and get one of their main dishes as they all sounded pretty good. We got the bread pudding for dessert (sorry forgot the photo) but that was really good!! Would get again.
