This was an amazing experience! The food was a 10/10 and I highly recommend. The ambiance was so beautiful and I loved the hospitality of everyone in the place. Everyone really made my birthday special I even got a little note from the restaurant. This was my first time and I would definitely go back.

We had the most amazing dinner here. My husband had the pork chop with brussel sprouts and adored the sauce. I had the salmon with the beans and loved how perfectly cooked and flavorful everything was. We also had cocktails that we loved and to top it off the performer was amazing. It was a lovely evening and the next time we are in Savannah we will definitely be back.
