    Me and my party of 3 were welcomed with smiles. We were seated immediately. We had a very nice waitress named Liz. She was super attentive and answered all of our questions about the menu. All of our food came out piping hot and so very flavorful and delicious. Will return in the future.

    This was one of the best meals we had in Savannah. The fact that they can present such quality food and service while being that busy is amazing. We love kitschy and the Shrimp Factory gives it in spades but also has cute little touches. I had the Artillery Punch which comes with a souvenir glass. At other restaurants you might get lucky and get a fresh glass in a bag. Here the new glass came neatly in a box. A small but endearing gesture.

    Quirky place with very good food and great service. I had the shrimp and sausage creole and my wife had the blackened grouper. Both were delicious! Our server, Liz was excellent! She not only did a great job, but her warm, southern hospitality made a good experience - great!

    The crab legs were amazing!! Fresh tasting and filling. We got the hushpuppies as an appetizer and those were also divine. Cocktails are strong.

    My and I went for Valentine Day Dinner she love seafood so I thought would be a Great Spot. We Had a 7:45pm reservation got there on time If you go please make sure downtown a little early for parking if you can’t get parking on River Street please choose Bryan Street parking garage it is closer. We got seated by a table by the restroom and we order appetizers Coconut Shrimp they ok real crunchy and the sauce was good and then we order entrees I got the low country boil that could be seasoned better and my wife got the shrimp and lobster pasta which was flavored full but didn’t have to meat we ordered another appetizer fried green thick cut tomato that was ok and got two non alcoholic drinks with free refill and a two to go cups . So far as price everything was under $100 which I thought was a little pricey for the portion. Sorry no pictures

    Thank you for choosing to spend your Valentine’s Day with us! We appreciate your detailed feedback and are glad to hear that the shrimp and lobster pasta had great flavor and that the coconut shrimp and sauce were enjoyable. We’ll share your comments about seasoning and portion sizes with our team as we always strive to improve. Parking downtown can definitely be a challenge, and your tip about the Bryan Street garage is a great one. We truly appreciate your visit and hope to have the opportunity to serve you again in the future!
