    I ordered the gumbo,does not look like gumbo. Lots of chicken, very little or the ingredients not present to taste. Not worth the value asked and simply not good at all and especially for $19. Two pieces of sausage and says it has crab in it. Can not taste the crab. Not worth the money!!!

    First impression wasn't great as the floor seemed super sticky walking in... turned out it may have just been the finish on the flooring. We were sat in the back area at a half bench half chair table which was super tight. I may be a little flabby but I should be able to slide in easily like most places and it was snug. Table did not adjust out because I assume if we did that it would block the door to the outside. Server arrived quickly and promptly took our drink & food order. I got the slider burger which was tasty. Only thing I would recommend is if you are a burger joint ask how the person wants the burger cooked... mine was pretty red & I'm a barely pink girl. My hubby got the shrimp po boy which he enjoyed but noted the shrimp was supposed to be blackened & was not. He enjoyed it anyway. The home fries were amazing... probably my favorite part. We would return and give it another whirl.

    If you find yourself in NE Cedar Rapids or Marion and needing a cheer bar and burgers Look no further than Shorts. Shorts is one of our favorite places in town now. Brennan the bartender knows how to make a great drink. He remembers you if you sit in his space. He is amazing at his job. He makes me a Tequila sour instead of a Whiskey sour and its out of this world. The fries are sliced in house and made which why they taste so good. They recently added fried Dill pickles that are also homemade. Fun fact their beef is also from a small farm in Columbus Junction, Iowa! Your Homemade goodness is brought to you at a bargain here. The prices are fair and you are leaving with a full belly. They have done community nights with Iowa giving crew and gave a portion to them. Charity and burgers bring it on.

    Great place to eat. We loved the decor and the waitress was very nice. Food was great. And best part is we only live four blocks away so we will be coming back more often to try all the other burgers

    Gravity burger - jalapeño cream cheese, green chilies, onion

    Sat at the bar on a busy Friday night. I ordered the Burnout burger and it was delicious. Service was fast and good sitting at the bar.

Our dinner was wonderful and two weeks later my husband still raved about the fried chicken sandwich! Service was good, considering how busy they were but we had a little frustration taking care of our tab when we mentioned we were headed to a show and needed to be headed there,
