I've visited Shady Grove a few times over the past few years and always have a pleasant experience! This weekend I went with a group of my girlfriends for my friends birthday. It was a Friday night and we had to wait about 30 minutes to get seated, which was fine with us since we were able to find seats at the bar while we waited! It was very busy but the bartender served us right away. I started with a cosmo, which was great! My other 2 friends had dirty martinis and they said theirs were great as well.
We were seated after about 30-40 minutes of waiting and we had a great table for the 6 of us! Our waitress was nice but you could tell she was very busy and rushing around. We started with the hummus, I order every time I go! They give a lot of hummus compared to the pita they give you, so we always ask for extra pita. For my entree I got the summer salad which is one of my favorites! It has shrimp, goat cheese, mango salsa, and sunflower seeds. Others around the table got ahi tuna, Cobb salad, and wraps. Shady Grove is a great place to visit while in Shady Side for a meal that will always be yummy!
