Thanks Jim, that tip led to this good-enough-for-now solution:

GtkMenu {
  border-width: 1px;
  border-color: #cccccc;
  border-style: solid;
  box-shadow: inset -1px -1px 2px #777777;
}

GtkMenu is equivalent to .menu as far as I can tell, and both worked for 
me -- can anyone comment? The .menubar style class does not work as these 
are popup menus, not menubars. (Curiously, .popup does not work, which 
would seem to apply according to the GtkStyleContext man page.)

My earlier attempt with

* {

did not work because I wasn't specifying the correct property entries. 
(border-width and border-style are key, I was incorrectly using margin 
before.)

Box shadows seem totally unattainable on my MacOS system if I do not use 
the optional (!?!) 'inset' specifier. I actually do not want an inset 
shadow (I want outset?) but the above specification creates a shadow 
that's subtle enough that you can't easily tell the difference.

Many minor gtk3 style inconsistencies remain between my MacOS and CentOS 7 
boxes, but I think for now I've whacked all that exceed my personal 
hideousity threshold.

Thanks!
