    It was a good experience until they charged a 2.5% fee for using a credit card. It’s such a poor and lousy way to add extra costs. I will never return nor recommend any restaurant that does this.

    Excellent food. Our server made excellent recommendations as it was our first time in Savannah. We sat outside with our dog. Pet friendly. Grilled octopus was delicious. My husband had the crab cakes. They were so fresh and delicious. I had the fried chicken with collard greens and Mac n cheese. Best fried chicken I ever had. The trio dessert was so yummy. Peach cobbler with peach ice cream and the cheesecake. Perfect sharing size. Got a taste of 3 amazing flavors! Drinks were great as well. Highly recommend when visiting Savannah.

    We have eaten here in the past and enjoyed it but this visit was off. The food and drinks were just decent, not cooked as requested($52 steak cooked well not medium). Had to return a drink because they put the wrong ingredient. Party of 4- 2 of the main meals came out 30 minutes after the other 2 meals. Shrimp and grits was consistency of mashed potatoes. The server was friendly and helpful but the experience overall was not as expected. I rarely write reviews but when you are on vacation and take time visiting specific spots you hope it is a great experience. I hope the restaurant can review this.

    Food was absolutely outstanding. We were celebrating my mom’s 91st birthday and we had the crab cakes which were spectacular. Hardly any filler whatsoever pure crab meat delicious. We also had the filet mignon, which was superb as well.

    The Shrimp and Grits was bad. The grits was just regular it usually have a very good taste, like they add cream or cream cheese to it. It had baby shrimp in it. To much scallions in it. It didn't even taste good, I was so disappointed. The Fried Chicken was cooked to hard, it was dry. I spent $80.00 for nothing!!

    Whenever we are in Savannah we always stop by Vic’s. On this night the service was a little slow to start. But our waitress was very nice. We both ordered the She Crab soup which came out cold. New soups were delivered. We also ordered the seafood Melange which was very tasty. The dessert trio was excellent!! Always a nice choice in Savannah.

    I dined at Vic's May 2024. It was beyond superb. Thus this return trip. June 28, 2025: Staff without exception were wonderful., efficient, personable, expert in every department. Our waiter was likewise wonderful. We started with the fried green tomatoes. If you go, be absolutely certain to order this appetizer. Vic's fried green tomatoes are a life-changing revelation. Incredibly delicious. My friend has been looking forward to Savannah's famous fried chicken. This dish is a generous 4 piece meal. The fried chicken was good but not extraordinary. Mac and Cheese--great. Greens OK. I ordered the grouper special. The sauce was similar to a piccata, but a little too salty for me. The grouper was fresh, and the serving was a nice thick piece. The fish was superb, but was kind of messed up by over salting. We enjoyed the experience, while the food was a little let down.
