    Great experience, our first time in Savannah on Vday and Cindy/Syndi was our waitress. She was fantastic, checked on us and made awesome suggestions for drinks and food. The place was fully booked for the night but still very quiet and intimate. 10/10 would come back. Thanks!

    We had a great experience with our server Clinton who was very knowledgeable of the menu. The peach margarita was delicious, but sweet! For an appetizer we ordered the crab dip which was a decent portion! For our entrees we had the mahi sandwich and blackened mahi - both meals were delicious!! First time in a long time that we cleaned our plates. Overall great experience!

    Featured items on the website are not on the menu. I specifically wanted the seafood medley dish - discontinued. Food was under seasoned and bland. Service was great.

    Our waitress was nice. We have been here a few times and enjoyed the food very much. We looked forward to another good meal. Unfortunately, the food did not meet our expectations this time. My Blackened Corvina with shrimp and crab rice came out cold and bland. I told our waitress it was cold and she offered to replace it with a new plate or warm it up. I still did not enjoy it.

    By far the worst meal we had in Savannah. The bisque was very oily for some reason. My filet was overcooked and a poor cut of meat. The oscar topping came on the side in a very small cup and looked like watery slaw. Thankfully the server removed the extra charge for that upon request. The wife’s salmon was overcooked though she liked her mashed sweet potatoes. Would never eat here again and cannot recommend it at all. The service was good though.
