Shelter
When Shelter opened a decade ago, it was meant to offer the basics—food, wine, shelter—along with a few big-screen TVs and a lively, upscale casual feel. Since then, it has become so much more than that. Owner Jay Gildenhuys is so serious about his food and drink, he started the Feast food fest here in 2010, and he welcomes guest chefs. (In early 2014, he welcomed Vancouver’s Wildebeest restaurant and their famous “bone luge” of marrow bones and sherry shots.) You can expect the usual casual dishes, such as burgers, pizza, and Asian-inspired bowls enhanced with lots of local seafood and a good selection of libations. You can also expect everything to be exceptionally well made, and the service to be friendly and attentive. A great spot for lunch, dinner, or cocktails.
