Reviews for Shorty's Place in Watertown, NY
Tried this place for the first time today and I loved it! Food came out in a timely manner even though it was busy and food was... great! Really love their home fries, better than other places homefries. We usually go to longways for our usual weekendbreakfast but I think we'll start going here! Server brought butter, ketchup & syrup without even having to ask! Only complaintis my husband's eggs Benedict was so overcooked that it was like a boiled egg. My breakfast was great though(I got the bigbreakfast platter). Highly recommend :) Read more
Food came out quick and was delicious! I consider myself a gravy connoisseur and their gravy was amazing. Also, our server... Jennifer was very kind and helpful with the menu. I'll definitely have to come back soon:) Read more
It's been quite a while since we've been here just because it's so far away and they close fairly early. Just as good as I... remember! If you're in the area while they are open, it's worth a visit. Read more
Super clean! I am very impressed how clean this dinner is. Service is so good and food is good! A must try in Watertown! Best... dinner! The decorations. Is amazing too. Read more
Lovely retro place. Walking in the door feels like traveling into the past. From the juke box to the pictures and memorabilia.... Even the color scheme inside is mostly white with a black and red accent. Most importantly the food is good and a wide variety.The only downside is they don't have leaner options like turkey bacon or turkey sausage etc. But if you know that going in youwon't be disappointed. And the prices are pretty cheap. We had breakfast for a family of 6 and paid less than $70 whereas if wehad gone to a Denny's or IHOP it would be no less than $100. Read more
The environment was exactly what I wanted when I went to this diner. It was just that, a diner that reminds one of a nostalgic... time. We received some of the best customer service here and largely due to such a great waiter. He was phenomenal andprofessional. The food was great for me and not so good for my wife. My black and blue burger was cooked to perfection and theyadded an over easy egg for me at no extra charge. (I didn?t want the onions and lettuce hence it looking basic.) It wasdelicious! The fries needed some salt but other than that they were very good. The milkshake I got on my way out was one of thebest vanilla milkshakes I have had in a long time. My wife?s chicken pesto wrap looked really good but the red peppers didn?tmesh well with it. Even though her wrap wasn?t awesome - the atmosphere and service warranted a five star review. Read more
Very cool, 50's vibe restaurant, there's even a 57 Chevy sitting out front. Is ample parking right off the interstate exit. Skip... the chain restaurant right across the street this place was fantastic! I set at the bar and within seconds Paula arrived withmenu and coffee in hand. My coffee cup was never empty during the whole meal. I ordered the steak and eggs with home fries andtoast. I ordered the steak medium rare but it came well done not that big a deal it was still very tasty. My only complaint isthat it was a New York strip I would have much rather had a thin cut breakfast Rib Eye. Bottom line, food was excellent, thevibe was excellent and Paula was excellent. I'm just sad that I'm just discovering this place, 3 weeks in to a 4 week trip. Read more
Just off the Rt-81. Unique 50's retro diner. We had an amazing breakfast, fair price, very clean and nice service.
