Sharing meals at Shulas

[tarheelmjfan]

After reading so much about the large portions at Shula's, I've been thinking that our family (DH, DS(10), and myself) could order two steaks and two sides and one or two desserts and split them. I'm sure that neither DS nor I could finish an entire steak. DH could just order one of the larger steaks and share some of his also. How do you think they will react if we try this here? Our family is really into football and we love Don Shula. We were huge Dolphins fans until Dan Marino retired , then we had to become loyal to our hometown Bucs. I think our DS will love the atmosphere.
Also, if you think they will be fine will the 3 of us sharing 2 meals, what do you recommend on the menu? Any opinions are welcome and appreciated.

You may want to check but DW thinks there is a $10 charge for plate splitting. This would only apply to the steak since we share sides and appetizers and it's never been a problem.

Eeyore2U,

Thanks for the info. I don't mind paying a $10 fee, if that is their policy. I'm just not crazy about the idea of my DS and I both ordering $33 steaks and only eating half of each.

What sides do you recommend for our family? I'm not sure that any of us would care for the creamed spinach. I was thinking maybe potato cakes and another. It sounds like you have been to Shula's a few times, so I value your opinion on what is good. Also, a good dessert is a must for our family to end a meal. Any suggestions???

Has anyone else tried sharing an entree at Shula's?

The potatoe cakes are very good, almost like hasbrowns. The baked potatoes are good too. DW liked the asparagus.

As far as desert, we never get that far.
