I went to The Shelby for the first time over the weekend with my family. Located at the Hamilton Crossings, Shelby is a fine dining restaurant with a limited menu.
For drinks they give you complimentary water, then you can order another drink. I asked for a mocktail but they came back after I ordered and told me they didn’t have a crucial ingredient so I stuck with water which was really disappointing.
For appetizers, we got the Shelby Melanga Chip Nachos which had flavorful beef chili con queso, guacamole, sour cream, and homemade tortilla chips. I totally recommend getting this when you go because the guacamole is fresh, the beef is flavorful, the chips have a perfect seasoning, and topped with fresh pickled peppers and cilantro makes it simple and flavorful. For the price of $12.95, I thought it was fair pricing for the amount of food given.
For my main meal, I got the Hot Crispy Chicken, which is crispy chicken thighs, smothered in a hot & honey sauce, topped with lettuce, tomato, and pickle, with a creamy dill dressing. I would totally get this again. It was really crispy but also juicy, the chicken thighs were huge and with a side of fries for $14.95 it was a pricey meal but worth it for the taste and the amount.
Overall my experience at Shelby was great; service was fast and consistent. It was on the pricey side but for the amount of food given and the service, it was well worth it.
