    Requested a window seat when I made the reservation and they honored that so we had a great view of the river while we ate. It was a Monday night, so it wasn’t crowded. Service was prompt. I had the lobster and crab bisque. Tasted great, though there no lobster in it. We both had the grouper Oscar, which was wonderful. The grouper filet was a good size and cooked perfectly. Overall a very good experience and a decent value for Savannah.

    Service was very good and prompt. However, our entrées were overcooked and very dry. The sauce on the entrée was very thin and flavorless.

    Thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear that the service was prompt and attentive, but we're sorry that your entrées didn’t meet expectations. We appreciate your comments on the preparation and sauce, and we’ll share them with our kitchen team to ensure we improve. We hope you'll consider giving us another try in the future.
