Shorty's Steakhouse is a unique dining experience. Established more than 20 years ago, along the historic Randolph Street in downtown Garrett, Indiana. Shorty's Executive Head Chef James Morrow has created & curated our menu over 10 years, carefully straddling the line of fine steakhouse dining, with small-town Indiana fare.

We are located in Garrett, Indiana, 10 minutes from the historic Auburn downtown and the ACD museum. Also, 20 minutes north of Fort Wayne, Indiana, 15 minutes from Kendallville, Indiana and 25 minutes south of Angola, Indiana. We love that we bring all these communities together at Shorty's.

Shorty's is proud to offer bar seating, family room seating and an outdoor patio we completed last year.
We are laid-back and believe our guests' enjoy the incredible service & food without having to "dress-up".
We embrace the great and growing community of Garrett, Indiana and love that we can share amazing cuisine in an unexpected location.

See you soon!

    Our dinners were delicious and overall we had a great experience. Our server Lexi was also the bartender so she was sometimes quite awhile getting back to us with our drinks and then again to take our dinner orders. But overall, Very Good!

    Seated quickly. High top not our favorite. Server was excellent. Food good. Two of us had Caesar salad. Not enough dressing. Asiago grits were great. Pork ribeye was flavored wonderfully. Overall very good. Center was a bit underdone and somewhat fatty. Steak salad was great. Carrot cake to share was very small. Overall an excellent experience.

    I took my team of 10 to dinner at Shorty's on a Thursday night ~5:30 They had our table ready and the server took our drinks and gave us time to review the menu. I was surprised that it wasn't packed this close to the holidays, and being able to reserve for 10 on OpenTable was amazing. I dislike calling restraunts. Noise level was pretty low and they had the area semi-decorated for Christmas. The food was fantastic and for 10 of us with appetizers, drinks and meal was ~$65/pp. Very reasonable for great food. Everyone loved the holiday themed drinks. Wait for food was not long at all. Will definitely return.

    Lovely time with excellent food and great service from Eli. You really need to promote your in house scratch made desserts by letting your servers taste and describe them to guests. They were AMAZING!! Would have passed on them if it were not from the fun interaction with our server. Excellent end to our meal!!!
