Had a great time at the Salty Cowboy with the Cabana Club. Excellent Ribeye, Fantastic Burger, and local Shrimp were spot on! Austin did a great job (it’s hard to find great customer service, he beat expectations for the 9 of us). Karaoke night had all of our favorite 70s, 80s, 90s, and 00s songs. Will definitely come back from “The Hill!”

A cool casual place to go for a relaxing evening out. Foods good and friendly staff. We were there on karaoke night and what a fun atmosphere.

Small town vibe, Big time Food and service. Been there twice and both times were amazing. Service was awesome with Austin! Limited menus during the week due to help and cooking that do not disappoint and make up for it in Flavor. Looking forward to the next trip on the weekend for the full menu! My son spilt his tea and Austin made no big deal of it and even made my son laugh about it so he wasn't embarrassed! Come to the bluff regularly during hunting season and now will visit Salty Cowboy regularly when we dont want to cook. Thanks yall for the hospitality and people do yourself a favor and try the cheese curds, chips and queso and the Blackened reddish sandwich. And wings and their fried pork chops.....well you get it try the food!

DO NOT EAT HERE. Super burned take out pizza. When I called to discuss it, they hung up on me immediately. When I called back, the lady put the phone down and I was subjected to horrible, blaring country music. This place sucks. No one else in town would even answer the phone to take an order so this is where I landed. Save your time and money and drive to Darien or Brunswick. DO BETTER.

We have been a few times now and it is consistently good. Austin is beyond great! He makes you laugh and feel like you're having dinner with a friend! This has become a go to when we are in Shellman Bluff.
