Restaurants in Shelton

“I’m in Shelton for a week for work and saw this resturant was highly rated and it did not disappoint. I ordered three things, the cashew nut with chicken, shrimp and chicken shumai and mango sticky rice. The main meals were tasty and full of flavour but the winner is the mango sticky rice. Honestly this is one of the best desserts I have ever tasted, it’s on my top 10 list of desserts. I am blown away by the flavour, it’s a mixture of creamy sweet goodness and the mangoes are so fresh and perfect. I’m trying to think of ways to bring it back with me to London without it spoiling because it was that good. For now it’s sitting in my fridge waiting for me to eat it ?. I will definitely be back!!”

“We mixed it up a little today by having Japanese and Korean. So we started with their 3 Sushi luncheon special with miso soup. We had the avocado , california and salmon sushi's. They were all made well - tightly held and evenly cut. Each roll sliced into 4 pieces. I found the sushi rice had a little sweetness and hint of vinegar which was balanced well. They make their own soy sauce which was perfect - a little sweet and slightly salted but more of the low soy flavor. I find regular soy sauce a bit too salty and perhaps a little to heavy. I ordered the SPICEY chicken tteook bokki. If you love food which has heat from the gochujang, sliced stir fried chicken, and beautifully soft but chewy rice cake with carrot and oniions . I love this Chicken ttteok bokki but not for the faint of heart that can't handle the heat. Although you can order this dish sweet instead of spicy as well. My wife order the beef bulgogi. The beef was sliced and very tender. It was marinated evenly throughout and very tastie. It was not spicy but balance with a litlle sweetness and saltiness. The dish was stir fried deliciously with cut broccoli. Of course it came with a cup of cooked white rice to bring everything together. Service was spot on. The waitress timed our food perfectly with an easy constant flow coming. Never felt rush and the waitress came back a few time to make sure all was well. The restaurant was very clean, cozy, moderate modern and yet comfortable. This could be one of your date night places. Not sure if they serve alcohol or BYOB (Beer) or BYOW (WINE) We had their bottle of Perrier. But Yes Way. I'll be coming back!”

“We had Miso Soup which was excellent!Main dish: Szechuan Crispy Beef & Szechuan Hot Pepper Chicken, Shrimp & EggplantFor dessert a Cappuccino Truffle GelatoAsian StyleEverything very nicely presented and tasted superb-delicious.We arrived without reservations and got promptly seated.Service was very attentive and very pleasant throughout. A great place to return to.A keeper to come back again.”

“Absolutely fantastic! Hip atmosphere, accommodating staff, and creative menu all add up to a memorable evening. Both of us commented it was the best entree of it's kind we have ever had! We look forward to many repeat visits.”

“This place is amazing the young lady that works there is the best she’s super knowledgeable and goes the extra mile to make my family feel welcome. The paletas are delicious and super refreshing ”

“Did curbside pickup. Food came out within 2 minutes of me arriving. Even my special request for A1 was in there like I asked. Cost is good for the amount of food you get.”

“Ever since moved here, this has been my go-to Italian restaurant. They offer a classic italian menu and seasonal cocktail list. The service is top-notch, and they can almost always accommodate whatever requests you may have. Even after spending my time in NYC I still would take this hidden gem over anything else I have had. I find their seafood in particular to be a cut above the rest. If you haven't tried it yet, its a must.”

“This is an amazing restaurant! I had the Sammy Salmon and the food was amazing. Super fresh and seasoned to perfection. The kids meals are also a great portion for kids, my daughter is 8 and wasn’t able to finish her plate. For dessert we had the Tres Leches Cake and it did not disappoint, super moist and just the right amount of sweetness. Definitely recommend for the entire family!”

“I came here for a birthday celebration and it was an amazing experience for me as well as the birthday boy. The service and food were amazing and the hibachi chefs were professional entertainers. We all had a great time and I will definitely be going back.”

“First time coming to Wellingtons restaurant and it was a wonderful experience. I don't usually give over 4 stars but this was well deserved. We got lost due to a map issue but after speaking to a employee they helped guide me to the correct lo”

“Was my first time trying arepas and they were so delicious! The meat was perfectly seasoned and soft. Service was also great. The employee was very patient and kind :)”

“We doordashed from Ari Bella and was delicious pasta dishes. Restaurant forgot to include butter for the bread and cutlery for our hotel room - but the food was scrumptious.”

“Ordered a classic bowl, grilled chicken pita and Avgolemono soup. All were amazing! Fresh & flavorful. Staff friendly. Place is spotless. The soup is incredible! I'll be back for a bigger size of soup next time.”

“Have been a patron of Cafe 4 for four years and they have great offerings for both breakfast and lunch…. always fresh and delicious. The service is top notch and prices are reasonable!Vegetarian options: N/a”

“Amazing food truck located in one of the plazas on the River Road, drive too fast and you might miss it. Stopped here for lunch, we got 4 tacos and we could also not leave without trying their Crunchwrap. They have a wide variety of flavors of protein to choose from, each come with two dipping sauces. Options include mango habanero chicken, ground beef, chorizo and a host of others. We got a chorizo, birria and a sweet chili chicken taco. All outstanding! The tortillas were super crispy and have a brown cheesy coating on the outside, that's what makes it stand out from the rest. We also got the Mango Habanero Chicken Crunchwrap, outstanding as well. Service was quick and friendly, they are passionate about what they do. Hours are limited and they only have one table for outdoor dining, best bet is to take this to a park somewhere, that's what we did!! We will absolutely come here again, amazing food.”

“Excellent! Dinner was delicious and service was beyond expectations. Highly recommend. Make reservations very early if you want to go on a Saturday night though.”

“Pramod runs an excellent business. His attention to detail is spot on and he's a very good guy. I used to frequent his variety store in Shelton when I used to work in town.”

“Love that you can order single tacos. Order yucca fries everytime I go there. Never have enough room for dessertParking: Tried stree eceral times, ended up in free parking in the lot across the street. Walk over was a little dicey due to the ice.”

“I take out all the time. My parents live up the road from them and they go there all the time. May is a great server who takes excellent care of my parents. As a server and bartender myself, I have a lot of respect for this restaurant. The feelings and level of service we get from them, they're more than just a friendly neighborhood restaurant. Definitely one of my go tos in town.”

“The restaurant was extremely busy at 6:00 PM on a Saturday night. I am thankful to have made a reservation. My server was Mario, he was friendly and attentive. Our food was excellent as always. I highly recommend this establishment. All the meals I have tried have been great.”

“Obsessed with this adorable spot in downtown Shelton! I talked to the owner who was so nice, and they’re super dog friendly so seeing all of the pups really brightened my day. It’s one of those spots where almost everyone is a regular and they all know each other, so it felt very community oriented! My fiancé and I grabbed a sunny table near the window and had such a delicious breakfast of avocado toast and the George’s sandwich with our coffees. I really liked the iced pumpkin one I had! I will definitely be keeping this spot in mind for future trips to downtown Shelton!”

“Staff is amazing . She is so welcoming and friendly !! The drinks are out of this world !!! Don’t get me started on the meal replacement bars !! This place is a GEM!!”

“Our children love going to the farm for ice cream! You’ll find us here once a week during the summer and often during the fall for pumpkins and ice cream. I love the rotation of flavors all summer! The kids love seeing the cows too. Very tasty ice cream favors and love the cold brew milkshake too.”

“This place is awesome I highly recommend it food is great atmosphere is great it's family the waiter awesome waiter we went on a Saturday night so Saturday evening and it was busy for two waiters and a bus guy they did a great ”

“I went during prime dinner time and they were understaffed, so they could've been more prepared. The bill came out to $236.00 plus tip for two adults and the food was spectacular albeit pricey!! Parking was a problem, beware. I'll definitely return, the food was that good!!”

“Nice coffee shop. Tried the banana mocha—was okay, but personally not my preference. But would go back still and try something less adventurous on my next visit.”

“I was working in the area and noticed this place was there, so I gave it a try.I had a tasty Bacon, egg, and cheese on a hard roll. It tasted great, but was a little bit greasy. Then again, it is bacon. Really not too bad, but perhaps worth mentioning.Another bit of information that is worth mentioning is that it is cash only here, but there is an ATM on site.The people that are running it were both really nice and I was in and out quickly, which I really appreciated.They do have a couple/few tables inside if you want to eat your food here.”

“Love the ambiance of this social-inspiring atmosphere. Televisions were on the current games, the menu was impressive with it's quality and variety. Great beer selection and value! I'd say this is a must stop if you're looking for a social spot in town.”

“The food ??!? The service ?!? The environment ?!? TOP NOTCH!!!! If you are thinking of going to Shelton from Bridgeport for this food ?!? It is definitely worth it! The food and the service always has me hyped up! I love you guys!!”

“I've been here twice now. The first time, we dined in, and yesterday we experienced the hibachi grill! Their sushi appetizers are absolutely amazing—definitely my favorite! They are so flavorful and simply delicious.Although the service was good during our hibachi experience yesterday, the hibachi itself (I tried the house special) was not the best.Despite that, I'll continue coming back for their sushi and appetizers! The ambiance is also very nice.”

“Hands down one of the best ice cream places around here. Both the ice cream and ice cream cakes always taste fresh. Take out only but there is plenty of outdoor seating.”

“Great little coffee shop. I've been cooking here since it was Auntie's. Although the name is different the food and coffee remain the same. Can't go wrong ”

“This has quickly become a staple spot for me and my family. Everybody is so friendly, it feels like you're surrounded by more family. We always have a wonderful time and the food is just fantastic. Bravo! And thank you all very much!”

“The receptionist from my job brought in the Shelton Business Paper and told me about a new pizza place that was opening in Shelton. She knows I love pizza so she brought it into work to share it with me. If you follow me then you know my kids and I love pizza so we had to visit. Upon entering the restaurant, my daughter and I first noticed how clean the restaurant was. The first thing that pops out at you is the animated wall print on the wall. I loved the fact that it was bold, bright colored, but not too much to overwhelm the customers. We we're greeted as soon as we entered the restaurant and I even met the owner. He gave me a tour of the restaurant since it was my first time visiting. There are three interlocking restaurants that he owns which is Parker Pizza, Fatty Patty, and Parker's Eatery and Bar. As a customer, you can finish your pizza and walk towards the back of the restaurant and have a drink at Parker's Eatery and Bar. What a cool idea!! Parker Pizza also has self serve beer machines in the restaurant if you like beer. My daughter and I ordered a cheese pizza with half pepperoni. The pizza was thin and the cheese pull was the best. The pizza was a little oily but the flavor was definitely there. The sauce was flavorful and the crust had that buttery taste but in my opinion the crust was too thin. All in all, it was a good pizza. The customer service was excellent as I got a tour of the restaurant and the young gentleman that was are server was great. Great attitude and very pleasant. The pizza is good, the atmosphere is great, and they provided great customer service.”

“Always great when we come here. Staff are always friendly, the food is always good, and it’s always quick to get our meal. It feels like a good value too especially their dinner specials.”

“Food was good, price was good. My only gripe was that 2 diff days ordered the same thing but the total was different (wasn't worth dropping a star for that however).”

“Amazing unique food. Everything was great. The drive thru guy rushed me. I asked him to give me a minute to check the menu, he said sure, and 3 seconds later asked me what do I want.”

“Big thanks to the nice kind gentleman whose name was “ Angel” who helped me on 3/14/24. Keep up the good work!! Wendy’s is lucky to have a good worker like you. Wendy’s give him a raise !!”

“I always try to order in advance and when I show up to the drive thru I must say that the employees are the most friendliest and cheerful I've seen at any Dunkin. I always give cresit when it's due. Keep up the good work!”

“My only hold up with this place is that it is always packed. The drive-thru is in a bad location so it makes it very difficult to get in and out but otherwise no issues.”

“This BK is our favorite in the area! The food is always super fresh- hot & crispy! They have self-serve soda fountains & icee machines. The staff is quick and friendly. They have a PLAYSPACE!! (The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is bc the playspace is not very clean or well maintained but it looks like they are renovating that area of the restaurant.)”

“I really like this gas station/mart/ DUNKIN DONUTS. It is one of my local favorite gas stations and Dunkin donuts. they have everything that a gas station with a mini mart should have in it and they also have a Dunkin donuts in the place. They have diesel along with gas.”

“idk why there’s so many negative reviews on here because this dunkin is by far the best in the area. they always make my drinks AMAZING, food is always perfect too. They remembered me even when i haven’t been there in a while which really made me feel special. 10/10 would ”

“Amazingly delicious and fresh juices + ginger shots, fire cider, etc. Reasonable prices too. Leslie is so welcoming and knowledgable about ingredients and their benefits. Will definitely be back!”

“I come here solely for the fries. I haven’t tried many other things from here but the fries alone are worth a stop. Love all the different dipping sauces for the fries too!”

“Nice place in downtown Shelton, where many of the locals meet. Good selection in their menu: burgers, Nachos, appetizers, and salads. Service is friendly. Good place to meet with ”

“Food amount is too little, one plate only filled 60%. The other noodle was separated, then white noodle sticky together. Maybe eat in would be better. The service is excellent and the decorated atmosphere is good too. ?”

“Love this place! Absolutely love the girl Kara who works there. As soon as I walk in, she knows exactly what my father and I like and she starts making them. The other girls even know what we like so they check us out while Kara makes our smoothies. They all are so friendly in there!”

“I drive a considerable distance just to come visit Bobbi the bartender. She’s the best around! Funny, fast, excellent. It’s also hard to find such a welcoming fun crowd and cheap drinks anywhere else. The new owners are regularly around and you won’t have to look hard because they’ll greet you with a smile. Great guys. Can’t say enough great things about this great place. Only thing that would make it better is if they had a karaoke night!!!!”

“The best traditional thin crust pizza I've found in the area. I particularly like their saussage. I've also had them provide trays of food for a working meeting - everything was very tasty. We usually take out.Parking: Adequate parking - at busy hours you may need to wait a moment for someone to leave.”

“Happened to stumble on to this place. I'm always keeping an eye out for health spots or juice/smoothie spots; and this place is phenomenal. I've visited here on two separate occasions and both experiences were very friendly. They are knowledgeable and have a positive energy and atmosphere. I truly enjoyed talking with them about health & fitness as well as local small talk. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a great smoothie and/or tea.”

“Can not say enough about Caloroso's Eatery.Food was excellent, staff was gracious and professional.We attended a function that was held downstairs in a private area. They helped me on the chairlift and helped me off. It meant the world to me.. I thought I wasn't able to go.. So, thank you for the lift!! LOL.So yes the food is fantastic,staff and owners are great and if you have a hard time with walking downstairs, don't worry they get you down.......”

“Comparatively speaking about pubs in the area, this one is a good one. Good atmosphere. Nice staff. Decent apps. I just can't find a pub that is comfortable like in the real Irish style around the area. All that complaining aside, the pub on Howe looks good from the street and has a vibe that you can settle into.”

“BEST BOBA DRINKS IN CT!! I’ve tried MANY around the state & country, love it here! Always come back. Taro boba has always been my favorite, great flavor unlike some other places that are watery. Thai is our second favorite, too bad they ran out tonight. Love their boba, it was the perfect texture when we had it every time.”

“Good place, great service! I would have left a comment if I had an option on the website instead but just coming to say, we miss the booths! We used to go all the time but it is just not as comfortable with the kids without the front rooms booths. Still everyone should give it a try!”
