    Pretty view of you sit outside. Our server was great. The food was just ok but absolutely obnoxiously expensive and the menu was super limited. Kind of mad we drove to DI for this. Definitely one of those expensive just to be bougie places, not because it’s great quality.

    Ambience and location are a plus! The swordfish special was only special in a bad way. The swordfish could be picked up with a fork and placed back down with a need to push the fish of the fork! No flaking and very dry! The grouper was slightly better but not up to par with the prices being charged.

    We were a group of six ladies on our last night having a dinner at an amazing place. Kingstide was a beautiful restaurant and views, amazing food and our server, Nicole, was awesome. We all said it was our best meal in the six days we were in Savannah and Charleston!!! :)

    We had dinner here for our anniversary- it is a beautiful restaurant on the water. Our waitress -Rebecca- was very attentive. Food came out quickly and was excellent. I had the blackened grouper and my husband had the swordfish. The fingerling potatoes are amazing as was the dessert.

    Peggy, Thank you so much for your 5-star review! I am so happy to hear that you had such great service and great food! I love our side patio as well. The weather really is great this time of year. The water view really is the best and is tough to beat! I do hope that you will come back and dine with us again soon. Thanks for all the kind words. Jacqueline Dornick, AGM
