Maria V's Bar And Restaurant - Shelton

This place is definitely a dive, featuring the usual selection of beers on tap and food that looks decent. A band was playing, which was a nice touch, but I found it strange that some patrons were vaping and smoking inside the building. It seemed like they weren’t accustomed to having a large crowd, as there were reserved seats in the back. A sign indicated those were for staff, but I highly doubt a bar of that size has that many employees, and if they did, I seriously doubt they would be smoking indoors. As for parking, it’s located in a strip mall, so there were no issues finding a spot at night.

The homestyle roast beef sandwich, generously topped with savory beef gravy and accompanied by crinkle-cut fries, makes for an excellent meal. When paired with karaoke, this spot is the perfect place for a fun night out!

LITERALLY THE SLEEPING GIANT OF SHELTON. The best burger and wings of ALL TIME. Karaoke is an awesome added bonus, like the perfect condiment on a delicious hot dog. The sweet, crispy crunch of a classic dog is unbeatable. Don't miss out on this incredible experience!

Good food good staff great band triple threat and soundcheck

I thoroughly enjoyed coming here! Very friendly staff, the owner her son are often working, and they have a great team working hard to please your dining/drinking experience. The menu has lots of great appetizers, I recommend the house-made fried mozzarella, it's the large triangles with a very good marinara sauce. My friend ordered the sea bass, and loved it. Lots of Portuguese specialties too! We saw an excellent live band while there, and it was a nice place to catch a show. Plenty of parking and easy to find. Well worth a visit!
