Pollock expressed disappointment over the current state of Shorty’s, saying, “When we put our name on something, we know there must be a standard of excellence that comes with it. In this instance, I personally failed by allowing Shorty’s Waterfront to fall short of the standards that are at the very essence of every restaurant in the Legacy Hospitality Partners family: great food, stimulating décor and memorable hospitality.
“If any one of these standards falls short, we fall short. And in this case, we fell short.”
