    Great spot for Thanksgiving dinner. The traditional turkey dinner was tops. The cocktails were fantastic too. The Pumpkin Spice Bread Pudding was off the charts. After dinner, a stroll through the Pearl offers nice Christmas decorations that put you in a festive mood. Looking forward to the next visit.

    Our first time to Bliss was wonderful. Nick was our waiter and he did not disappoint. He shared the history of the building and the restaurant. His knowledge of the menu and sense of humor provided both me and my husband a wonderful and memorable evening. I would recommend Bliss to anyone looking for an intimate dinner with unique and delicious food.

    One of a kind experience at Savor. The team taking care of us were just a few weeks away from Graduation and it showed. We had one of the teaching Chefs swing by and talk with us for a bit (mostly talked about how my 5 year old was taking care of her meal 😂. The 4 course meal was excellent the attention to detail was palpable. This place is a must for everyone visiting SA.
