   First time going there and it was a date night and the atmosphere was perfect for it. The food was outstanding, the cocktails were delicious, and the server was awesome. She even took pics for me of me and my date. 10/10 ! Will return soon. Oh, and the bathroom was decorated was cute I took a ton of bathroom pics. Lol

   Oxtails were good but need gravy as an option and our libations had no garnish. More effort is need in preparing beautiful cocktails… not a fancy establishment as they try to market… wait staff needs a professional consistent uniform wearing black is not enough. Wait staff doesn’t know the menu either and what sides come with the meal.

   It was kinda too dark, I did like the light on the table, the chairs felt a little flimsy. Wanted the catfish plate, but they were out, settled for the chicken breast. Didn’t like the drinks at all, ended up with a lemonade. They have enough staff, they just need better organization of task and who does what. We sat at our table for almost 20 minutes before the waiter brought us water.

   My favorite Black owed restaurant hands down! Food is always delicious, staff is always professional/friendly, the energy and music never fails to amaze me. As long as they are in business I will continue to dine here.

    We were blown away by this restaurant- the meals are pricey (and the drinks really are!), but the portions were plentiful and the taste and presentation were well worth the cost. I would highly recommend it. My only very slight issues were that between the din and the music it was a little too loud and difficult to hear the waitstaff and our dinner party. And it’s a little difficult to find even with the GPS. But those are minor things in comparison to the quality of the meals and the attentive and friendly waitstaff

    They ran out of oxtails, forgot to bring my drink twice and brought out the wrong order for my date. He order the chicken dinner and they brought him out fish, which he’s allergic to. I tried to wait on my dates meal to come out before eating so by the time his food arrived, my food was cold and his chicken was hot but sides were cold. Not to mention my jambalaya was not season too well.

    Service could have been a bit more polished, but the food was of exceptional quality, we sampled quite a bit, no complaints about anything from our whole party, and the snapper entree was outstanding. Ambience was very very cool. Will definitely return!

    Have been a few other times in the past and this recent experience did not meet prior experiences. Our first few visits were excellent - notes were followed from reservation, service and food was amazing. This visit started off well but fizzled out unfortunately. The food while good, just didn’t meet the taste of prior visits. The fancy plating and presentation were completely missing. Our table and wall were visibly (like dried liquid running then dried on wall - white liquid on dark wall) dirty. The lighting changed from candles to dimly lit table lights - okay but the candles were a nice touch. The server was great but maybe it was his first day - drinks took forever. After receiving one drink, we found out the other was out of an ingredient and reordered + 5-10 mins. Our server seemed to be out of cadence and many times we flagged down to put in various orders (drink, app, entrees). Apps were good - no complaints. We ordered two entrees and after about 25-30’mins, we’re told one of the entrees can’t be made due to another ingredient not being ready. We reorder another selection and legit 2 mins later, the originally ordered food arrived. Apparently there was miscommunications between the teams. It was my wife’s birthday and each visit the remembered and surprised w/ the complimentary dessert - unfortunately we had to tell the server & again, mix up in the kitchen but the dessert eventually arrived - no candle but whatever. Will likely return, maybe it was an off night. I hope the service improves as we love the place.

    Overall service was good from the entrance to the hostess to the waitress. Very pleasant and made you feel at home however waitress asked If I wanted my change. Food was mediocre. Wasn’t great but was good enough to eat and be satiated and enjoy with company. Lamb pretty expensive for lack of flavor. Sauce was good for them as well but still lacked seasoning. Overcooked lamb. Asked for medium rare. Mac and cheese was enjoyable and yams were also pretty good. Greens taste as though from can. Cornbread was good. The drinks are strong so that a good thing if wanting to get your moneys worth.

    We went to Savannah Blue for NYE dinner. From the moment you enter, you’re embraced with great service and amazing ambiance. Our appetizer was the crab dip- super delicious and flavorful. We both had the lamb chops- really nice seasoned and loved the fig sauce on it. We normally eat lamb medium rare but tried their suggested temp of medium, turned out really tender. For desert, we had the bread pudding- wow. It was like a southern hug with the brown butter and praline toppings. For warning, this restaurant doesn’t mess around with their drinks! I had two pear cocktails that were delicious and not shy on the liquor haha we can’t wait to come back again!

    The hostess was great! Very nice and genuine. The atmosphere was good, we didn’t realize there were two sides to the restaurant. Had we known we would have preferred the side by the kitchen and not the bar. Our waitress seemed like she didn’t want to be there. The red snapper was excellent. The Cornish hen sucked. We had the cauliflower appetizer and it was very good. Too expensive for sure!!!

    I wished they had cleared used plates without being asked. Or packed our leftovers rather than bring the co Rainer to the table. That would give the more elegance factor I think they are going for.

    We arrived almost 15 minutes late for our 4:30 reservation. Parking lot across the street is a bit crazy, slippery walking out. Anyway… Nice greeting from the hostess, and we were immediately seated at our table. Morgan, our server was prompt. We apologized for being late and explained we needed to leave at 6pm for Aida at MOT. I’m telling you all this to set the stage for dinner. 1. We never felt rushed. 2. All 4 of us ordered catfish, extra crispy, as recommended by Morgan. Amazing!!! 3. Nice wine selection, we enjoyed a bottle. 4. True to her kind words, Morgan brought the check with our meals. 5. We left on time for the show! I don’t usually write a long review. The layout of the restaurant is very good, intimate and warm. The restrooms were sparkling clean without smelling like medicine. The food - oh, get the catfish! Delicious with collard greens and sweet potatoes. Ok, I’m not a fan of sugared sweet potatoes, the others totally enjoyed them. The serving size was plentiful, and we took home the leftovers. Hope all the waitstaff is as sweet and attentive as Morgan. Not pushy, but she had to remind us when we needed to order to be out timely. Great find. We’ll be back!

    Going up a flight of stairs to the establishment was challenging. The table for 4 adults was very crampt. Barely enough room to put the food and drinks we ordered. We had to ask our wait person for water. Food was pretty good. I'm salt sensitive and I knew it would be salty beforehand so I was not really surprised by it. However; it was not as salty as it was the first time I ate there years ago.

    Had an amazing dinner here. Service was outstanding. Michelle was our waitress and she was extremely attentive and personable. I had the ribs and a margarita and everything was delicious. They have a very nice bar area and the dining room has a great ambiance and over looks the street downtown. We would definitely go here again.

    Got there at opening, the staff in the back was cursing and playing rap music. The macaroni and cheese was just elbow noodles and melted cheese on top, barely any flavor. The salmon jambalaya had a horrible base, flavor was lacking. The only thing I liked was the crab dip.

    Everything about the experience was phenomenal. We felt welcomed by the greeter as soon as we entered the door. The hostess was very polite, knowledgeable, and friendly. The atmosphere was incredible. Our waitress Kennedy did an amazing job. Our food was DELICIOUS and very affordable. I sooo thought my bill was gonna be over $100, but nowhere near. I had the kale Caesar Salad, lemon drop martini, catfish platter, and bread pudding 😍. Sooo good. I will definitely be back!!!

    A disappointing dinner from the get-go. They were out of the first 3 drinks I tried ordering (white wine, beer, cocktail) so ended up getting a red wine. We received our drinks after the appetizer arrived and the stem of the wine glass was sticky, bottom was greasy and had obviously not been washed properly. Both in our party ordered the shrimp + grits - there was no salt/seasoning whatsoever in the dish. There were 4 shrimp + 2 pieces of andouille sausage - not nearly enough to justify the $28 price tag. Service was extremely slow, albeit pleasant/polite, but the restaurant was not packed by any means. This is not a good place to go for anyone with any physical challenges/handicaps. Very steep stairs need to be navigated to access restaurant; no elevator option. I really wanted to enjoy this restaurant, as I always love a wonderful soul-food filling meal, but this meal experience totally lacked soul or caring from beginning to end.
