Take a taxi!
Designated driver.
Walk if you can.
Please don't drink and drive!!!
As for the parking, the owner of the building Jay Odom, created I know at least 10 new parking spaces for Shorty's on his own property and I think two nice handicap parking spaces right next to the side with the stairs go up. How great though that you can now go through the front door!!!!
For about 15 years parking has always been an issue. If people will work together on Hotz Avenue and come up with some alternative parking solutions that benefits everyone, then I believe all would be well in Grayton's little world. Think how far out you have to park in Baytown...or get shuttled in.
Good luck to all!!! Hotz Avenue is such a unique place and there should be something for everyone. Just a suggestion. I can't wait to see the new restaurant and dine...but I'll wait a while.

Will finally got around to getting his license yesterday, and I sent him on his first errand- down to Shorty's to grab a menu. I will tell y'all- it looks great! Perfect at the beach food, reasonable prices. The scanner is not hooked up right now, but here are a few highlights (in my book at least)...
Ceviche- Fresh Gulf grouper or shrimp marinated in lime juice with onions, peppers, and cilantro. It's a cool delicious bite for a hot day. Served with crispy tortilla chips. $8.50
Lime Soup- Tangy veg and chicken soup made with lime juice and served over tortilla chips. Light and refreshing. cup 3.50 bowl 5.50
There are 3 big salads- garden, crab and grilled shrimp- house citrus vinaigrette or ranch, and mini muffins.
For entrees, it runs the gamut from fired or grilled shrimp, fried grilled or blackened grouper, shrimp n' Grits, crab n'grits, grilled veggie pasta with pistachio pesto, steaks, cheeseburgers, poboys, chicken sandwich- prices range from $7.50 to 23.50. The sides are great looking- lots of choices, and a kids menu with the highest priced item being $4.50.
If the food is as good as everyone is saying it is- winner!

Nice.....will definitely be trying this place this weekend..it sounds solid!!
Ate lunch there today - YUM!!! Had the Grouper Sammy with fries and it was delish - fish was cooked perfectly and I could've eaten the accompanying tartar sauce with a spoon! Great lemonade, too. Loved the decor of the joint - very beachy with lots of aquas and whites. And was impressed with the size of the downstairs bar. Definitely could see myself enjoying a margarita saddled up at the bar after (or before) a trip to the beach. Appeared flip flop and suit casual. Way to go, Shorty's!
The "Off the Leash" Cheeseburger is the bomb. I ate there today and was really impressed. The burger was grilled perfect and the side order of Dawg Fries were a hit. I also tried the Lime soup that was written about earlier in this post. It was fantastic as everyone said.
I learned the place is named after the owners long time dog that passed away. Hence all the menu references to treats, biscuits, pups, rewards, ext.. I will gladly eat there again. The prices are good especially for the servings.
The staff was courteous, fast and attentive. I can see this place being a family hit. The kids menu is cool.
