    The food and experience at Church and Union is one of a kind. Our waiter, Kyle, was an incredible host as he guided us through courses of delicious food and drinks. Be weary of a later reservation as the restaurant has a live DJ starting around 10pm. Overall, a must go to while traveling through Charleston, SC!

    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…

    We enjoyed EVERYTHING at Common Restaurant! Our server, Bryan was terrific - friendly and very efficient. We liked every single item on the Chef's tasting menu. The first item was 'bread and butter' - which might sound uneventful but I wish I could have it every day. It was slightly grilled and totally terrific. Following were excellent choices: our favorite was the short rib ravioli. and we preferred the hazelnut dessert choice over the panna cotta. The price was actually a great value! The hostess and bartender were personable and professional (sorry, can't recall their names - we remembered that the bartender had a boyfriend in the service). We had a wonderful evening, and would gladly return!
