Shorty's True American Roadhouse

The bartender noticed us enter and quickly offered us a seat at a table in the bar area. Our food was delicious, the lunch special prices were great, and our server was on top of it all! Super experience! 👍🏻

I have a very strict diet and couldn't find much from the menu. I wish there were more gf options. Luckily, one of the waitresses helped me find something I could have. I like the atmosphere and the fireplace. Womens restroom was clean!

Overall the food is pretty good but the prices are on the higher end for barbecue. Have been there three times and the quality is consistent. The cornbread muffins are oddly sweet, taste like a combination between cornbread and a plain cupcake… Not a fan

They had me hooked in the parking lot. The smells that came out of this building were intoxicating! Thought we have this place to ourselves on a Monday afternoon, but no no no, not the case. It was crowded at 11:30. We ordered the BBQ sampler onion rings and a baked potato and had lots of leftovers to take home. The cornbread muffins and honey butter were delicious snacks until our meal came. Looking forward to trying something new each time. Clientele varied in age from 4 to 84, all seeming to be right at home in the friendly, casual atmosphere. Saw some large party business lunches taking place also. FYI, there is a convenient to-go window near the entrance for those who can't stay.

Meats were all good but we did not enjoy any of the sides. Service was good and decently priced for the portions.

The food is amazing!!!!!! I will definitely continue to eat here! Service is great and they get the food out pretty quickly.

Ribs were delicious & very meaty, brisket was great too, the baked beans, mac & cheese & corn bread was great as well. The big sampler platter was also tasty..... so pretty much EVERYTHING my family & I tried was AMAZING. Staff was very friendly & attentive but not the least bit overbearing. Great atmosphere & great food @ a decent price; what more could you ask for. I recommend & suggest this place to everyone.

When you walk into Shorty's the first thing that hits you is the delicious aroma of smoked barbecue. I would literally pay just to stand in Shorty's. After sitting down in the dining room (which is very relaxed and casual-perfect for any day of the week) you get to decide what's for lunch/dinner. I would highly recommend the brisket, but you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. The pulled pork, ribs, steaks, and salads are all fantastic.

My favorite place to eat! The ribs are good, the sweet tea is good and the Mac and Cheese is amazing. I would eat here every day If I could but obviously Health purposes I can´t!

Very good food, friendly atmosphere and staff, will be going back regularly

Came here with my daughter and her cousins before the JoJo Siwa concert. The service and food were both great.

Solid BBQ place, with a good menu and reasonable pricing. The wait was acceptable, as was the food. We had the 1/2 platter to share and it was enough for 3 adults with leftovers to bring home. It was a busy weekend, but our thirty minute quoted wait only ended up being 20. The kitchen area is part of the dining area, filling the place with the smoky aroma of BBQ. This is a fine choice if you are in the mood for bbq.

We may have had an unatentetive server but the food was amazing. I would recommend it even if you get the same server

Great ribs and great service! I will definitely come back when I am in Toledo.

This place is so good all the time, it never let's us down! The menu is fantastic, portions are huge, food is excellent, the staff is friendly, the outdoor seating is open air now so it's very nice, the drink menu is so good. Hands down the best BBQ in the city in my opinion.
