| - Well, my friends, where to start on this place? Let's see if this approach works. First, I am allergic to shellfish, so oysters is out of the question for me. With that said, I went there only with the solely expectation to have a good steak and wine dinner. I don't have to mention (I give the place only 2 stars) I was completely disappointed from the very beginning. First, I asked for a glass of Malbec. I have nothing to say there. I never get disappointed with Malbec. I then ordered, a shrimp cocktail. Four pieces of Jumbo Shrimp well cooked (overcooked to my taste) with cocktail sauce, which was a little bit spicy. I will say, 3 out of 5 on this plate. Then I ordered a Filet Mignon (usually I take it medium, it came medium well, and it was almost closing time, so I just 'ate' it) with a side of roasted broccoli. Honestly my friends, I don't think that was the kind of steak I will expect from a place of this category. I will expect that kind of steak from The Keg not from this place (well... after a search on the internet, I discovered, The Shore Club is owned by The Keg, no wonder why the similarities). Considering the prices and ambience of this place, I will expect something better. I finished the beef and the broccoli (which was the best part of my meal, honestly), ordered a drink, finished it, paid and left. As you might guess right now, I left for good.
You might be wondering why did I give this place 2 stars if my experience was that bad. Well, the ambience is really nice and the service was good, that's the reason for the 2 stars. Anyway, guys, if you are in the mood for steaks, look around the neighborhood (or look my reviews), you'll find better options, almost at the same price range. Cheers.
