The Shelby

I did a comprehensive research of the entire Downtown area before selecting The Shelby, and the Shelby came out as a winner based on the following...

I've lived here almost about half a year and I love this place. Anthony and Allison are always so friendly and create almost a family like environment. The...

Had an amazing experience at the Shelby. Sam and Allison always helped me out when I needed them. Friendly and timely maintenance. Would live here again!

Ordered a lamb burger, they were out. Switched to the veggie burger. Dry and crispy, very thin, maybe 3 tablespoons of condiments and toppings. Hilariously a skewer was stuck through it as if there was any danger of it coming apart. When served it looked like just a plain bun on a plate with nothing inside. And for this, $15. I was with two others, we ordered a large fries to share. The burgers came, no fries. Server said nothing. I thought he forgot to put in the order so I asked. He said he did place the order but since they had run out of one of the sauces we ordered they needed time to make it. Not sure why he wouldn’t mention that when he brought the burgers. At least 10 minutes after our burgers were gone they finally came. Limp and greasy, fried at the wrong temperature. Sauces were bland. Difference between curry ketchup and regular ketchup was almost non existent. They did end up taking the fries off the tab (we hadn’t asked them to). For a place with such a limited menu it should be easy to do much better. Would not return.

Just left this place for the first time. Damn! The food is amazing! I had the house beef burger and it was amazing! And the duck fat mustard... Legit. My wife had the Animal Fries which were also crazy good! It has a cool, low key vibe to it. I was really impressed with the quality of food for the price. It was a little over $50.00 for the food and 2 beers /2 cocktails. I would say on par with any downtown burger place, for 1/2 the price!
