The "Little Hilbo ". NOT little. Very delicious. Highly recommended. The duck fat fries just mop up the bourbon cream and veal demi-glacé.

Nikki Taylor

Alligator Soul did NOT disappoint! Not only was the food and drinks delicious, the bar tender was a great host! The ambiance was on point too. This was the catch of the day, Mahi Mahi .

Micah Chiles

Fun, inventive cuisine that reminds me of a lot of dishes from NYC with local ingredients . Must order: she crab soup , also if you haven't tried the Justin cab, it's great

Fran Eppinger

The Shrimp and Grits were off the charts good. Bison braised beef was also very delicious. Extremely friendly and polite staff , wonderful service. I would definitely return when back in Savannah.

Andrew

Had the Alligator Boudin (very good), Shrimp & Grits (very good), and the Bacon Wrapped Filet (fantastic!). Worth the visit

Paige Hartmann

The service was excellent as well as the unique dishes. A must taste in Savannah make a point to dine here!

Amazing food. Eclectic menu , although the chef 's vegetarian plate was FAB. The owner is a vegetarian and makes it a priority (according to my waitress ) to have impeccable choices for veggie-folks. Tof

Dawn Ratner

Definitely get the oyster appetizer . Baked to perfection. Frog leg jambalaya was excellent

Craig K

Incredible! There can't be a wrong menu choice. Tonight I received a 4 sq check in bonus! A complimentary glass of wine or a microbrew !

Jenn Elston

The veggie tasting menu was inventive and so refreshing. All the food was prepared perfectly- orange blossom corn muffins , pea polenta and the veggie chili are not to be missed!

Darlene Copeland

The duck was perfectly cooked and the candied gator was delicious.

Katie Parkman

The Oysters Beinville appetizer was great. I had the fish of the day- very fresh and cooked perfectly!

Pork 3 ways was excellent, as were the shrimp and grits . The fried green tomatoes and jambalaya were only ok

Paul Jorgensen

Great cocktails . Local sourced ingredients. Fantastic atmosphere. Wonderful service.

Pork loin was phenomenal. If you don't like sweet sauces it won't be for you.

Warning: newbie special only valid with entree. While the food is fantastic (shrimp/grits is the best), they will be cunty if given the opportunity.

Their food has complex flavors that made my taste buds sing! I wish it were a little cheaper, so I could eat there more often.

The beef tenderloin will melt in your mouth

I heard the employees are treated/paid poorly which leads to inconsistent food and service. They recently were investigated by the U.S. Dept. Of Labor and found several violations.

Good food, but the ambience is a bit off. Be forewarned, they charge for sparkling water.
