"Shelter looks and feels like a modern, rustic lodge that’s always busy—both inside and outside. The open wood-fire grill serves double duty for Neapolitan pizza and the oven-baked Argentinian empanadas, which gives them a nice char and an earthier flavor. The Humita with sweet corn, scallion, nutmeg, and bechamel is my favorite, but the ham and cheese and beef (sirloin, onion, hard-boiled egg, scallions, cumin, and paprika) are also good choices. You can try all three at this North Williamsburg spot for $19.50." - Monica Prestia

"Imagine a big, warm ski lodge filled with lots of wood and a big fireplace. You know, the kind of place where when it’s cold out you just kind of want to move into. That’s basically what Shelter’s like, but with the additions of empanadas, wood-fired pizza, and lots of cocktails. This Argentinian spot in Williamsburg currently offers outdooring dining as well and is a great place to meet up with friends for weekend brunch or stop by for drinks and snacks whenever you’re walking near Wythe and 7th and think, “I could really go for an empanada right now.” Theirs are baked in a wood-fired oven, which gives them a nice char and earthy flavor. The Humita with sweet corn, scallion, nutmeg, and bechamel is our favorite, but both the ham and cheese and beef (sirloin, onion, hard-boiled egg, scallions, cumin, and paprika) are also good choices. You can try all three for $18." - Max Bonem & Monica Prestia

"Another New York City import has made its way to Miami, this time its Shelter (10 NE 27 Street) a wood-fired eatery specializing in Italian and Argentine cuisine. On the menu guests can find starters like steamed mussels, crispy artichokes with pecorino cheese dip, a meat and cheese board, truffled mac and cheese, and ceviche mixto. Pizzas, all available gluten-free varieties, are a star of the menu with some highlights including Brussels sprouts with smoked mozzarella; fontina and pancetta; ham and peppers with mozzarella; quattro stagioni with mushroom, artichoke, olives, and prosciutto cotto; and the truffle pizza with fontina, mushroom cream, mozzarella, Parmesan and, of course, truffle. Another favorite are the empanadas filled with items like sweet corn, scallion, nutmeg, and bechamel; and mushroom, kale and goat cheese, among others. Main plates range from a roasted half-chicken with mashed potatoes to parillada for two with ribeye, chorizo, morcilla, skirt steak, chicken; and slow-braised double rubbed pork ribs. Taking cues from the original Brooklyn outpost, which debuted in 2013, the space features woodsy, “hunting lodge chic” design. Think lots of wood elements, deer antler chandeliers, and designs that evoke a ski lodge feel — even showcasing snow shoes on the wall. Keeping with that theme at the bar, which offers a large variety of whiskies, scotches, and bourbons, alongside an extensive beer, wine, and cocktail list." - Olee Fowler

Its a cute and cozy place. Perfect for dates and celebrations! When we went there was an issue with the AC and it was super warm inside so, that took away the joy a little bit. Everybody enjoyed the dishes and dessert. I was not too impressed by their pizzas. Overall, great appetizers and service.

Such a cozy place!!! We had a charcuterie board to start and then we had the parrillada, both were delicious! Their bread was very yummy, I assume is same dough they use for the pizzas. The staff is so great and super friendly!!! We came back and we loved it because they are dog friendly restaurant, we had our little doggy with us so it was amazing we could sit inside with her!

What a lovely place and great atmosphere. The outdoor seating for Covid is stupendous! Large, socially distant, plants, umbrellas or a giant plastic roof. Bottles of hand sanitizer on every table. The food was delicious! Empanadas were so good. I had to try the skirt steak and fries since this is Argentinian place and was not disappointed at all - huge piece, perfectly medium rare, juicy - and the fries crispy cooked to perfection. The pizzas also looked amazing. Need to try that when I come back! Yummy

When you go through the door you feel like you are entering a cabin in the middle of La Patagonia, Argentina. You should try the beef empanadas! Delicious, it worth every cent!! As an argentinian living abroad for many years, this place was a real "shelter" because every time I went dinner I felt more close to my home country 🇦🇷❤️

I love this place. The log cabin interior transports you, the fire place is cozy in winter, the empanadas and anything else from their coal fire oven are memorable, and I really enjoyed the Italian wine they had available by glass last time I went. The cocktails are really fun and interesting and also really good. I always end up sitting at the bar in front of a random Pedro the lion album and as a big emo it makes me just love this place even more.

I had a lovely time here! The atmosphere is very warming and romantic. The light was very dim but in a way that it creates a lovely aura to the room. Though there isn't any central air, it was well ventilated and I never felt too hot here. The food was out of this world. It was perfectly cooked and tasted delicious. We had the Ribs, Truffle Mac And Cheese and the empanadas and I tell you I did a happy dance while I ate. Even the drinks were delicious! The beer was very refreshing and tasty. I'd come here even if it was just for drinks! I was extremely happy with my choice to eat here and look forward to eating here again. I am convinced this place is what heaven is like. Everything was beyond amazing.

Turned up about 20mins before they're supposed to open and they let me and a lesbain couple in. Really friendly service, fire place and wood fired pizza oven. Interesting decor, nice place to chill out in.

This is my favorite pizza place in Williamsburg. It’s pet friendly, the atmosphere is amazing, servers are super nice and pizzas are unbelievably delicious. My favorite is Quattro Stagioni. Very close to European style pizza. And yea, they have great wine selection as well!
