Shabo’s: 🍂 Fall Flavors, Last Chance for Summer Specials

Hello Friends of Shabo’s Bistro,

Fall is finally here! The air feels cozier, the flavors get richer, and we can’t wait to share the season with you around our tables. 🍁


🦃 Thanksgiving Reservations Now Open!

The holiday season is around the corner, and we’re thrilled to welcome you to Chef Shabo’s Thanksgiving feast! From perfectly roasted turkey with house-made stuffing to decadent pies that taste like home, let us make your holiday stress-free and delicious.

✨ Seats fill fast — book early! To-go orders require advance reservations. Early pick-ups available for corporate parties and travelers.

Last year, we were showered with compliments on how juicy Chef’s turkey was — and the requests for extra stuffing and homemade cranberry sauce kept coming! In fact, the stuffing was such a hit we even ran out. Don’t worry, Chef is making plenty extra this year to keep everyone happy and satisfied. 🥂

Wild jumbo shrimp sautéed in a rich lemon-garlic sauce. (Gluten-Free)
