We had the barbecue chicken and fries and pulled pork it was very good and we enjoyed our server Phil who made us laugh a lot would really recommend coming back it’s a great place

As always the ribs were meaty and delicious. The server was the best!

I've been eating at Shorty's for 60 years. It's a legendary Miami, Florida USA restaurant and the delicious barbecue food is as good as ever. I'll be eating here frequently and I definitely recommend it to others. If you want to enjoy the true Miami Dining Experience... forget Versailles and come to SHORTY'S !
