Dave MacMay 25, 2017The "Little Hilbo". NOT little. Very delicious. Highly recommended. The duck fat fries just mop up the bourbon cream and veal demi-glacé.
Nikki TaylorOctober 17, 2021Alligator Soul did NOT disappoint! Not only was the food and drinks delicious, the bar tender was a great host! The ambiance was on point too. This was the catch of the day, Mahi Mahi.
Micah ChilesJanuary 7, 2017Fun, inventive cuisine that reminds me of a lot of dishes from NYC with local ingredients. Must order: she crab soup, also if you haven't tried the Justin cab, it's great
Fran EppingerDecember 29, 2014The Shrimp and Grits were off the charts good. Bison braised beef was also very delicious. Extremely friendly and polite staff, wonderful service. I would definitely return when back in Savannah.
- AndrewOctober 5, 2016Had the Alligator Boudin (very good), Shrimp & Grits (very good), and the Bacon Wrapped Filet (fantastic!). Worth the visit
Paige HartmannApril 10, 2016The service was excellent as well as the unique dishes. A must taste in Savannah make a point to dine here!
stacee amosJanuary 2, 2011Amazing food. Eclectic menu, although the chef's vegetarian plate was FAB. The owner is a vegetarian and makes it a priority (according to my waitress) to have impeccable choices for veggie-folks. Tof
Dawn RatnerJuly 20, 2015This resturant is our gotto when we can't decided. The food and service have always been amazing. Diffently one of our faves!
Christopher BAugust 17, 2015Definitely get the oyster appetizer. Baked to perfection. Frog leg jambalaya was excellent
Craig KJanuary 13, 2013Incredible! There can't be a wrong menu choice. Tonight I received a 4 sq check in bonus! A complimentary glass of wine or a microbrew!
Jenn ElstonMay 8, 2011The veggie tasting menu was inventive and so refreshing. All the food was prepared perfectly- orange blossom corn muffins, pea polenta and the veggie chili are not to be missed!
Katie ParkmanOctober 1, 2012The Oysters Beinville appetizer was great. I had the fish of the day- very fresh and cooked perfectly!
Paul JorgensenJuly 25, 2014Great cocktails. Local sourced ingredients. Fantastic atmosphere. Wonderful service.- Boss HoggMarch 23, 2013Pork 3 ways was excellent, as were the shrimp and grits. The fried green tomatoes and jambalaya were only ok
Matt 👀February 22, 2014Pork loin was phenomenal. If you don't like sweet sauces it won't be for you.
Shraddha NunziataAugust 22, 2011Warning: newbie special only valid with entree. While the food is fantastic (shrimp/grits is the best), they will be cunty if given the opportunity.
Carla JohnsonOctober 25, 2011Their food has complex flavors that made my taste buds sing! I wish it were a little cheaper, so I could eat there more often.
Nathan LeehmanDecember 31, 2010Cheese plate and meat plate would have been an amazing meal...and then they brought out the Lamb! A great meal!
Brenda P.July 15, 2011The Ribeye was top notch! High quality meat, exquisitely prepared and easily feeds 2 people!
Tim RutherfordSeptember 5, 2011Bold flavors and big portions highlight Chef Chris Dinello's menu. Cozy, intimate and relaxing.
Rohan DsouzaFebruary 9, 2012Amazing food, and the staff was really friendly. Make sure you cash in on the four square special
- Eric FultzSeptember 23, 2010Excellent fried green tomatoes....and great service. High end soul food...will definitely come back.
Nick LoReApril 24, 2011The shrimp and grits are ridiculously delicious. Definitely come here when you're in Savannah...
Colby CApril 22, 2011Sit in the bar and have the amazing Wendy whip up something for you. She's awesome!
Aaron DougherJune 23, 2015I heard the employees are treated/paid poorly which leads to inconsistent food and service. They recently were investigated by the U.S. Dept. Of Labor and found several violations.

Suzanne ConwayMay 4, 2013Good food, but the ambience is a bit off. Be forewarned, they charge for sparkling water.
Brittany WilliamsJune 8, 2014I feel it's over priced. The food was good, but didn't match the prices in my opinion. Service was great!
