Best Southern American Restaurants in Avalon / Oglethorpe Mall Area

Attractive little restaurant and bar with a lot of nice outdoor seating. Pretty on trend aesthetic. Nice staff and burger and chicken sandwich were very good along with interesting sides. Pretty neighborhood

Fantastic as always. Still the best fine dining in Savannah, hands down.

Our server was Eric and he was a wonderful server! The food was excellent! I have lived in Savannah for 2 years and consider this one of my favorites. The bartenders always have unique and adventurous specialties drinks to taste. The Raw Bar chefs have tasty and unique toppings to spice up the delicious oysters. This was our first time having the Brunch Menu which had a nice variety for our group. Sad there are not more choices for people with food allergies. Suggest the chefs consider adjusting the salad selection and adding vegetables sides to the menu so that entrees items can be adjusted for food allergy needs. As it was the afternoon, I was there for oysters and cocktails, and enjoyed the wonderful flavorful experience!!!

**Five Stars Are Not Enough!** 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Our anniversary dinner at Vick's on the River in Savannah was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, the warm ambiance, excellent service, and attention to detail made the evening unforgettable. My wife began with the French onion soup, which she adored, and savored the short rib for her main dish—perfectly tender and full of flavor. I opted for another bowl of soup and a Caesar salad, both of which were fantastic. The salad, in particular, was one of the best I’ve ever had. To make our anniversary extra special, the staff surprised us with a decadent flourless chocolate cake drizzled with raspberry sauce. It was the perfect celebratory touch! While crème brûlée was available that night, we were too full to order it after the indulgent cake, though it stayed on our minds. Parking that evening was a bit of a challenge, but even that couldn’t detract from the perfection of our night. The next evening, we couldn’t resist returning to try the crème brûlée! Even without a reservation, the staff immediately recognized us and graciously seated us in the bar area, just steps away from the live music that created such a timeless and relaxing atmosphere. This time, we avoided parking issues by taking an Uber—highly recommend this approach! The crème brûlée exceeded our expectations, making the second evening as memorable as the first. I savored a double Willet on the rocks, while my wife enjoyed another glass of the same excellent Cabernet from the night before. Vick's on the River delivered not one but two perfect evenings for our anniversary weekend. The food was impeccable, the staff went above and beyond, and the atmosphere was simply unmatched. If you’re in Savannah, don’t miss this incredible dining experience. It’s a must-visit gem that we’ll be recommending to everyone we know!

What a cool place to dine!! We were seating in the “Herb House” in a small room Full of historic ambiance. The food was delicious! We had She Crab Soup that was creamy and full of crab, Calamari with light breading that was so tender and the Honey Pecan Fried chicken that was moist, tender and delicious! Highly recommend this fun family friendly restaurant!
