11 Best American Restaurants in Shelton

“I was excited to try a local food place and wanted something special for my birthday. First the guy taking orders outside seemed a bit grumpy. He kept saying he couldn't hear me from the passenger seat and I talk loud. He left to the next customer before I could tell him I wanted ranch. We got our food and shakes and the shake was good. But my onion rings were over done. The ranch was vinegary and unappealing. Even tho the rings were over done they were alright. Then I opened up my fish sandwich. I took a couple bites and it was pretty good at first and then I thought "this tastes funny." But I was so hungry I ate it anyways. My friend was about halfway through hers when she remarked... this tastes funny and I said yeah... it did. She thought it was her. I decided to call the restaurant and tell them and they asked me to bring it back so after we finished shopping I did. The owner came to the counter he seemed nice but also mad. Then he starts telling me he sees nothing wrong with the sandwich. I told him but it tasted fun. He asked like what and I said wet dog. It really did. I'm sorry but it did. I wasn't trying to offend him. But it wasn't right. He refunded my money but then I got home and gave the burger I got for my other friend to them and they were also not happy with the quality. I was so excited because I'd heard good things about this place and like I said this was my birthday dinner. I'm so disappointed. I hate to leave a review like this but it was weird that the owner wanted to argue about the quality of his food and seemed upset with the customer for not liking it.“

“Friendly staff, food is hot & tasty!“

“Have been going here since Sisters owned it , glad CJ kept a lot of menus items.Great food and good service, only one bad experience in four years, keep going back and you should try the Rueben!!“

“Fresh high quality food with friendly service. I have not been disappointed with any thing I've ordered. Try the sasquash omelet or seafood salad“

“I like the limited menu, seems to keep prices down and makes for easy choices. Their french fries are yummy and different from the ones served in the casino (which are also tasty.)

Quick service and lots of seating options.

Soup is from a bag, so keep that in mind.

Kid-friendliness: They will be able to find something to eat, but the menu isn't catered to kiddos.

Wheelchair accessibility: Whole place is flat. No auto doors for the front or the restrooms. Lots of seating options.“

“Great service and great food.“

“Enjoyed the Shang very much, was so comfortable I forgot time. Had their Ruben and was more than pleased. Everything was excellent. I will be back.“

“Stopped for lunch and was quite surprised as to the quality of our lunch! Blue burger, club and turkey wrap, service was good and everyone super friendly… very enjoyable“

“I don’t know why it has taken me so long to write a review, I seem to keep getting pulled away each time I try. This place deserves 5 stars and truly, more than that. I so enjoy coming here, wish it could be every day. The people are so nice, and the lovely gals that help us each time we order are just the sweetest! They always make sure we get what we want and they check our rewards to ensure we get the best discount too. They are friendly and polite and always greet us with a smile. The sandwiches here are amazing! They are always hot and fresh and the ingredients are the best tasting. The French fries are so wonderful! They are hot, super crispy out the outside and soft on the inside. The portions are great and I always feel like we get our money’s worth. I will absolutely keep coming here as long as I have breath in me!“

“Options for quality dining are pretty slim on the outskirts of Shelton. Thank God for Spencer Lake Bar & Grill. Great breakfast, lunch and dinner options. The menu is unbelievably large with so many food options that everyone will find something they enjoy eating. The restaurant itself is very "country" but that makes it "casual" and since it sits right on the lake, the views are relaxed and beautiful no matter the season. If you're in the area and want a cold drink or a good home style meal, give this place a try, you won't regret it!“

“One of the only Denny's in 50 miles that I enjoy to eat at. Consistent good meals, cooked to order. Crispy cooked hash browns. Pancake value menu is a screaming deal in this day in age.

Any other Denny's in the Olympia area I have felt unsatisfied with the food and or service. Not this one is Shelton, it is great.“
