The Menu

As you might expect, the menu at Sharkey’s is full of seafood classics, but there are also plenty of non-seafood options to suit everyone. Start with appetizers like the shark bites or calamari fritti, then move on to entrees like the scampi sautée, chopped sirloin, or surf and turf. Feeling something lighter? Select the house Caesar salad or the lump crab cake sandwich. You can also select from several pasta options, market-fresh seafood, and of course, plenty of mouthwatering desserts!
