Enjoyed an evening at Alligator Soul. Food full of flavor and beautifully presented. Our waiter Samuel took great care of us and the restaurant has numerous staff looking after you. Will definitely return and look forward to trying new items on the menu. Oysters a La soul and the gumbo so full of flavor and could have eaten a dz frog legs that came with the gumbo. Who would a thought!

We thoroughly enjoyed our Valentine’s dinner! As we were led to another part of the restaurant, the set up was romantically decorated just enough to be a bit whimsical. Our server, Amelia was outstanding…attentive and considerate too. The food was tastefully delicious…from the warm crusty bread served with herbed butter; second course of seared scallops with risotto was heavenly; followed by raspberry sorbet with white wine to cleanse our palate; then the warmth of the flavorful tomato bisque with a ball of mozzarella; then the chef himself served us a canapé of lump crabmeat and shrimp in aioli …just enough to prepare us for the main course was delectable. My pesto crusted salmon was cooked perfectly matched with charred broccoli which I enjoyed very much. My husband’s steak Oscar was delish and the accompaniments with it was tasty too. To prepare our palates for the last course, the heart shaped marshmallow drizzled in pineapple syrup with edible flowers, was a perfect touch. Lastly, the finale, a box full of assorted made in-house desserts was a feast for the eyes… strawberries enrobed in golden milk chocolate, cherry filled dark truffle chocolate, red velvet with cream cheese frosting, caramel cheesecake, and napoleon with pink leaf white chocolate was a perfect ending to this romantic feast… every dessert was just the right sweetness …imaginative and creatively delicious! In addition, they were gracious to accommodate my request to have a bowl of fruits for dietary reasons for dessert as well… they didn’t disappoint…thank you so much! But wait, before leaving we were given take-away boxes filled with linzie cookies and their homemade teabags…a nice remembrance from this Valentine’s dinner at Common …in a wonderful “un”common experience… Thank you so much for making our dinner experience extraordinary! Till next time…

Everything was wonderful...from the appetizers, mains, wine and service. Our group had the whipped ricotta, beet salad and mussels for the appetizer. For mains, we have the seared duck breast, house made garganelli and the mustard crusted grouper. All fabulous! Highly recommend and we will be back.

It was my first time in Savannah, and although a reservation for dinner on Valentine’s Day was unavailable, we were able to get one for the night before in early evening. When we found the table for two to be quite small, we were quickly and pleasantly moved to a table for four. Drinks were the Savannah Peach (smooth and not too strong). Our dinner included French onion soup, grouper, crab cakes, and sides. Dessert (excellent choices) was chocolate mousse cake and the Peach Trio. The entire meal was absolutely delicious. Our server was attentive, accommodating, informative and not at all intrusive. Over all, a wonderful experience for a special, romantic long weekend. Our only regret - we wanted to return for dinner on Saturday evening, but there were no tables available. Next time…
