    Vanessa, the bartender, was amazing. She walked us through the menu and we had a lovely meal. We shared the quail app, which was wonderful. My wife had the crab cake (beware it’s huge!) and I had antelope. The antelope was so tender, I was honestly shocked having never eaten that type of game before. Please be sure to reserve well in advance. Thanks to Alligator Soul for making my birthday dinner one to remember.

    This was an amazing experience! The food was a 10/10 and I highly recommend. The ambiance was so beautiful and I loved the hospitality of everyone in the place. Everyone really made my birthday special I even got a little note from the restaurant. This was my first time and I would definitely go back.

    We were promptly greeted by the hostess and seated before our reservation time. Our server, Hannah(sp?), was fantastic. She provided very detailed descriptions of the wine, specials, and food offerings. She was attentive, but not annoying. Her enthusiasm was refreshing. She was quick to clear our table, when needed. Hannah was very personable and friendly, while remaining the consummate professional, which my husband and I truly appreciated. Our meals, from the appetizers to desserts, were phenomenal. The Chef and his team prepared and presented, in our opinion, Michelin and James Beard quality everything. While the price points are high compared to other restaurants in the Savannah area, Alligator Soul is worth it. Especially because the offerings are exotic and unique, but still “familiar.” We have dined here a few times over the years, pre-Covid. The dining experience is just as exceptional this visit as it had been in the past. We highly recommend Alligator Soul because of the Chef, the Sommalier, and Hannah, our server.

    My husband and I had the pleasure of dining at Alligator Soul the first night of our honeymoon and it was exquisite. The service was unmatched. Our server was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and took such good care of us. My husband had the bison short rib, which melted off the bone and I enjoyed succulent quail in corn chowder. The dishes came out quickly and were even better than described. Chef made sure that we were well looked after and made sure our night was special. I look forward to visiting them again the next time we are in Savannah!
