Excellent dumplings and gelato (who knew such a combo existed!) - and we loved the hosts! We came for the all-you-can-eat dumpling fest and had a blast…we’ll be back!

Love what has become of Bob's fish Market. Wonderful selection of il laboratorio gelaos. We got the ginger and the dark chocolate bourbon pecan. It's pricey but so are most places on Shelter. We also grabbed a loaf of sourdough but they make on the premises as well as other pastries and bread. It didn't hold together as nicely as I would have liked it to when I cut it. It was a nice bread.
They have an extensive menu of Asian dishes which we did not get to try but I've heard on the grapevine that they're quite good but $$$.
The woman was very pleasant. The French gentleman was a bit rude. He seems to have an edge that not only we noticed but other friends on the island also noticed. Strange attitude to have on an island where locals and even part-time residents talk.

We are loving having Opties and Dinghies on Shelter Island. The food is fresh and clearly homemade. The lo mein is delicious and full of fresh vegetables! It’s so great to have a place open late on the island. Service is quick and pleasant. We’ve been several times this summer and will be back to try more!

Wonderful place that services amazing dumplings, scallion pancakes, and bread. Will certainly go back.
The food is good considering there are limited choices in the island. But the owners( french and asian descent ) have no rapport with customers, rude , have no welcoming vibe and racial bias. They don't even update you of your orders! A 5 star review not only focuses on the food but the whole experience in the place. And the ice cream, You let them scrape the bottom for the last scoop!

Sweet place for a quick bite after the ferry. Eclectic menu plus bakery and gelato. Limited seating. "Real" plates & silverware would elevate the experience.
