Service and food were top tier. Our table shared the mac-n-cheese, catfish fritters, collard greens and kale caesar salad with grilled shrimp. Food was seasoned exceptionally well. Came out fresh and hot. Absolutely delish! I will say, the sweet potato cheesecake missed the mark. It lacked flavor. I’ve had the shrimp -n-grits in the past, also delish. Service is top notch as well. A definite place to add to your dining rotation. Job well done, Savannah Blue!

We drove over 7 hours to dine here, because it is phenomenal! Absolutely everything is lovely from being greeted at the street, the hostess showed kindness to servers attentiveness. The three appetizers were delicious followed by three mouthwatering entrees. The crab cakes were worth the long drive alone. The adorable corn bread muffins and hummus were awesome. The shrimp & grits were incredible. The ox tail and salmon were so good. The portions were huge. It was very hard to enjoy dessert but we did it because it was fantastic. This dining experience is one to remember and wish to repeat again. Thank you for a very special dinner.

Wow is all I can say. Been multiple times. But last night tasted like my Grandma was in the kitchen. Chicken for me and catfish for the wife. Came out fresh and hot with lots of flavor.

The mood lighting was such that I could not appreciate the visual presentation of that amazing meal. Please consider adding an LED over-head bulb to put shine on the table such that the experience can be highlighted and not dim! It is dark in the dining room…much lighter in the bar area.

this place has HORRIBLE customer service, the food is very high priced compared to the amount of food they put on your plate. you can't make any substitutions on the items that's included in the dish, the drinks where warm, the cornbread mini muffins where super TUFF and grainy. jiffy mix is WAY BETTER then this high priced nonsense. majority of what's on the plate is GARNISH NOT FOOD. they automatically add %19 gratuity into your bill WITHOUT letting you know about this ANYWHERE, NOT ON THE MENU NOT IN THE RESERVATION, NOT EVEN ON THE WEBSITE! THIS PLACE IS A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY! I HATED I WENT HERE FOR MY BIRTHDAY AND I LEFT OUT OF THERE STILL HUNGRY AND WENT TO THE CONEY DIRECTLY AFTER LEAVING HERE!
