Epic Christmas Eve dinner. We decided to go with the chefs tasting menu and wine pairing and I’m so glad we put our trust in the chef and kitchen. The gnocchi was light and delicious. The octopus was a favorite at our table as well. Every wine was a perfect complement. By far, the best thing about the experience was the service. Our server Kalona was a delight. Really personable, kept us well informed about the food and wine. She even wrote down the name of the wines we enjoyed the most. This will likely be a new tradition for Christmas Eve.

Always a pleasure to dine here when in town. Dined for Christmas Eve dinner. Food and cocktails were excellent. Two of us had the house made Garganelli and beef ragu, one had the coconut curry with shrimp and one had the caesar salad. Mackenzie was an excellent server even though it was a packed house and she was very busy with multiple tables.

Outstanding food… The shrimp gumbo was superb and there how specialty of piquant glazed fried chicken is simply amazing! Really fun place to visit and we had from Bob.

Our first time to dine at Vic’s. A little confusing finding and walked down to the river front and went to Vic’s River Grill next door. The host at VRG kindly walked us to the Vic’s on the River entrance and explained about going through the coffee shop and using the elevator to go up four floors to the restaurant. Come to find out they have a street level entrance that we used after dinner. We had a reservation and they let our son, whom we were meeting, be seated at 5:45 or we would have been 10 minutes late so that was good. The atmosphere was great and we had a table with a window facing the river. Our server, Alix was very friendly and knowledgeable of the entire menu. She took our cocktail orders and brought us out a basket of homemade biscuits. The martini’s were very good and my son’s Malbec was good also. My son and I had the braised short ribs that came with mashed potatoes and fresh green beans which was very tender and tasty and my wife had a Caesar salad. We found the prices to be very good. We will definitely be adding this restaurant to our Savannah dining list but will find a closer parking garage and now know about the street level entrance.

Our reserved dinner table was ready upon arrival & our waitress was knowledgable and very helpful when questioned about entrees & wine. The menu offerings all sounded excellent and my short rib dish was excellent. The manager & sommelier both came by to ensure our dining experience was satisfactory. I plan to dine again & would highly recommend giving B Common a try.
