Google Review

Among the many Google Reviews, Local Guide Caron Cooper shared his experience at Shelton’s:

As a long time resident of the Greater Sugartit area I was delighted the restaurant opened in this spot.

I tried the very tasty pulled pork sandwich and the brisket. The sandwich was delicious along with the mac & cheese and sweet potato soufflé . I will definitely be going back and try more items on their menu.. I recommend the pulled pork anyway they serve it!
