    What an amazing find! Service was amazing! The chef is incredible and as a result our meals were so delicious! This 1800 home which has been converted to a restaurant is such a great setting. Don’t miss out and make a reservation! You won’t be disappointed!

    Had great drinks and an entree. Appetizer dish (beets) was very dry and very bland. Waitress never ask about my dishes, I had to ask someone else for a salt shaker. And at the end she just left the bill, before I even had a chance to ask for dessert menu. There was no thank you from her either. Other than that, I’ll give this place another try. Banana espresso martini was to die for!

    Delicious food, excellent service, great portions, accommodated our gluten allergy well. Plenty of drink options, but not like some Savannah spots that are counting on you to booze your way through subpar entrees. Great spot for a date, family meal, or a small gathering of friends. I Recommend the Fried Green Tomatoes, and at $25, the Shrimp and Grits delivers on savory value.

    6/6/25 We were able to move our 8 pm reservations up to 6 pm but were seated at the downstairs bar. For a couple out for an early Friday dinner, this worked out very well. Sarah L. was the bartender and took wonderful care of us! She was incredibly busy as the place was hoping (again, it’s a Friday night!). She was very attentive and friendly. The restaurant offers great options. The food is delicious! We also observed different dishes coming from the kitchen which were beautiful. We shared the local greens salad and gnocchi. Fabulous! Of course we had to try local partner Wicked Cake’s raspberry and white chocolate. Scrumptious and not too sweet! B Matthews sources lots of local providers which is also important in supporting local establishments. Overall, Sarah L. provided OUTSTANDING customer service and the food is superb! We highly recommend B Matthews!
