    Fried Chicken Thighs
    Meg A.

    Staying near Thomas Square, my innkeeper recommended the fried chicken at Cotton & Rye. As fortune would have it, there was a seat at the bar on a busy Saturday night and I counted myself lucky indeed. I was greeted warmly and ordered a Cuba Libre, which was crisp and well-balanced. Though their chicken wings are James Beard award-winning, I opted for their very attractively priced fried chicken dinner. That first bite - with a little dab of ranch dressing - was the best bite of fried chicken I've ever tasted. The dish came with mac&cheese, which was perfection: cavatappi with a rich béchamel sauce and lightly broiled on the top layer, along with crisp pickled cucumbers, a sweet/spicy dipping sauce, and a trio of cornbread donuts. Oh my god! I would happily return to eat here and would frequent it if I was a local. They offer a fantastic menu of regional dishes and the desserts looked to-die-for. On Thursday nights, they offer a burger, fries, and martini for $25. That kind of offer from a popular and well-regarded establishment goes a long way in my book for engendering loyalty. Thank you Cotton & Rye for making this Yankee feel right at home in Savannah.

    The first thing I want to mention is the excellent service from the staff at this restaurant. We dined here during our anniversary trip to Savannah. The kindness and helpfulness of all of the staff from the moment we came in until we left was almost worth the experience itself. In a time where good service can be touch and go with dining, this stands out as exceptional for service. Our waiter was on top of taking great care of us the whole time, and brought a nice anniversary cookie to us to celebrate. He even added candy bars to our take home boxes as a special treat. The food was excellent. We almost loved the sides more than anything else that we tried. We shared and highly enjoyed the roasted brussels, broccolini, and cheese grits. The wings had a unique flavor. If you are used to buffalo wings, it's not quite like that taste. It is more of a spicy barbecue mixed with a little bit of Asian influence, but I'd say worth a try. The fried chicken was fresh and enjoyable. I especially appreciated the taste of the Mac and cheese. If you like Mac and cheese, it's very well done and worth a taste. The layout of the restaurant is great. Not a bad table or place anywhere. It can be a little noisy if very busy, but it died down while we were there as some started leaving. Definitely get reservations ahead of time like we did. 5 stars. Thanks for a great evening.

    Absolutely OUTSTANDING food and service! Make sure to snag a reservation if you want dinner service. It's a little lively inside as the building is a remodeled old bank and pretty packed in for a smaller space but so worth the experience. This place has been overlooked by Michelin for sure. The menu is seasonal and the website isn't always updated for special menus so you might find yourself choosing what you want upon arrival. We got the Duck breast (which arguably was the least notable on the entire plate, but the cabbage was PHENOMENAL), the seafood crudo (by far the best octopus we've ever had) and the bread pudding (from their onsite pastry chef and which was the perfect ending to our dinner).

    Cotton and Rye in Savannah is an absolute triumph and one of those rare places that feels special from the moment you walk in until long after you leave. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming with a sense of care and craft that shows up in every detail from the service to the presentation to the flavors on the plate. This is the kind of restaurant that reminds you why dining out can be such a joyful experience and why Savannah's food scene deserves so much praise. The Brussels sprouts deserve their own standing ovation because they are quite simply the best I have ever had anywhere. Perfectly cooked with incredible depth of flavor they manage to be both comforting and exciting at the same time. Even people who claim they do not like Brussels sprouts would be completely converted after one bite. They are balanced rich and addictive and I would happily come back just for them alone. They set a standard that feels almost unfair to other restaurants. And then there are the candy bars which are nothing short of magical. They are nostalgic and elevated all at once delivering pure happiness in dessert form. Every bite feels indulgent thoughtful and incredibly satisfying and they end the meal on the highest possible note. Cotton and Rye is a place that gets everything right from start to finish and leaves you already planning your next visit. It is a must for anyone visiting or living in Savannah and truly one of the best dining experiences around.

    Probably the all-around best eats and drinks we had in Savannah, which is saying something. Brendan gave us probably the best service of the trip, too. Loved our mains. Loved our side. Loved our drinks. Pricing was reasonable. The room (physically cold) and music (annoying folk/rock) were downsides - both things drove my wife nuts. One ordering mistake on my part: Everyone foodie-ish I met loved hearing that we'd made reservations for Cotton & Rye and talked up the dessert chef (Peanut), all mentioning the "Twix bars" in particular. Me being a fool, I opted to try the special dessert (a gingersnap/apple bread pudding with ice cream) instead: it was fine, but not revelatory. We are planning to return to Savannah - and a big part of why is that we'd like to eat at Cotton & Rye again.

    Cotton and rye has nice outdoor seating. Our waitress was friendly and offered honest suggestions. Felt the food was just ok - a bit of hit or miss, and the quality didn't align with the high prices. We had the wings (very good, liked they gave moist napkins to clean hands), the low country perloo (meh - a subpar paella, oversalted and sausage was almost non existent and tasteless), burger and fries (fries are homemade and very good, burger patty dry/overcooked, tasty special sauce). For dessert, we had the candy bars (tasted great, just like a Twix). All in - I'd consider coming for dessert, but otherwise would suggest looking elsewhere in Savannah.

    Savannah Crab Rice
    Annalise W.

    This review is for dinner and coming from a non-local. Visited Savannah and this was by far the best meal we had on the trip. I'm honestly still dreaming of it! Ambiance / Service: casual, almost has an industrial feel to it. Minimal decor. It felt like this was a less touristy place, with more locals dining here. Server was super friendly and they split most our food into two plates in the kitchen for us which was nice. Food: I would come back here again solely for the food. I ordered the below for 2 people and it was too much, but I'd still order it all over! -Award Winning Chicken Wings: I know there's mixed reviews, but I thought these were amazing. Drenched in sauce & so flavorful, but somehow still crispy. More sweet than spicy. -Mussels: delicious. Sauce is creamy and flavorful. -Savannah Crab Rice: this was unique. Felt like it had some Indian inspired flavors. If you can't do spicy, I would skip. -Strawberry Panzanella: good to share. Fresh, light, and refreshing. -Fried Chicken: because I got so many apps I split the entree with someone. We each got a big piece of chicken. It was the perfect serving. Chicken wasn't greasy at all. Loved the homemade hot sauce & buttermilk ranch. Mac n cheese was delicious too. Comes with cornmeal doughnuts - recommend ordering as a side if your main doesn't come with. Sooo good! -Pimento Cheese Grits: YES. Sooo good. My favorite side. -Green Tomatoes: I didn't love the goat cheese with it, but this was a personal preference. Nothing "wrong" with the dish. -Collard Greens: very smoky flavor. -Peanut Butter Pie: no photo. Got this to go. I think it's an award winning pie. Literally tastes like a pb&j sandwich. It was really good. A bit rich, so recommend sharing.

    An old bank is the setting for this very cool restaurant with one dining room even set in the old vault! Our waitress was extremely nice and helpful which added to the good experience we had. The cocktail list is extensive as is the wine list. We started out with an old fashioned and an Indiana Jones which were very good. The steak tartar starter was tasty. I had the seafood perloo which was excellent and my wife had the local trout on crab rice which she enjoyed. Make sure you save room for desert as their deserts are special. We had the candy bars, chocolate mouse, and vanilla cinnamon ice cream all made in house and delicious. When in Savannah, this is definitely a place to try!

    Seasonal cocktails
    Samantha E.

    This place is fantastic. It gets very busy so reservations are helpful; when we got there, there was a wait for the bar. The cocktails are solid, though perhaps not the most varied flavors for the season. But they can make off-menu classic cocktails as well. The beef tartare was a great starter, fresh and light. The pork shank was rich and delicious. The trout was the showstopper, with lightly spicy tasso ham/crab rice. And do not miss the peanut butter pie. I haven't eaten that much of any dessert in years.

    This place continues to shine and set the standard of quality for the city. Jason and Jay behind the bar make it fun. The servers are great and make coming here feel like a family; Asia, EA, Olivia, Kaitlin, Brendon!!! The food is excellent and the venue just makes your experience that much better!!!! This is a must stop when visiting the city.

    Fried Chicken Thighs
    Bianca I.

    The food was very good, portions are generous also. Restaurant had a cool vibe inside, unfortunately we were sat outside under a tent during a thunderstorm so felt a little overpriced for the experience. Our server was efficient. Drinks were also good, recommend the mocktail! For dessert, we got the candy bars and peanut butter pie. The candy bar is like a homemade Twix bar. The peanut butter bar was rich but tasted very good and came with a scrumptious homemade brown sugar whipped cream on the side.

    A fantastic start to my time in Savannah. I heard it was good but didn't realize HOW good. Every course I had was mindful, impactful, and memorable. My first impression upon arrival to Cotton & Rye was that the vibes were immaculate. It's a smaller and more intimate set up with a staff that was warm, approachable, helpful, and kind. My first impression carried throughout the rest of the meal. The shrimp and grits appetizer was absolute perfection. The trout entree was incredible, each component playing an important role in the harmony of the dish. For dessert I ordered a glass of the vin santo and a biscotti. Overall I can't think of anything that required improvement. I will always eat here whenever I'm in town.

    Chicken Parm
    Jack R.

    Looking for a perfect date night in Savannah? This has to be top of the list. Everything we ordered came out perfect and paired well with the drinks on their menu. Latkes were crispy and had great accoutrements, wish they'd been on the side to avoid getting soggy but still great. Best part of the meal had to be the wings. "Award Winning" and they are every bit of that. Smothered in a sticky sauce that had a smoky chipotle flavor with a hit of honey and a blend of spices. Extremely crispy and fell off the bone. Chicken parm could have served two people! Huge cutlet and serving of bucatini with a mislay spicy sauce.

    Ask the Community - Cotton & Rye

    Do they currently offer a Happy Hour for food and drink? - asking in July 2021.

    No they don't offer Happy Hour.

    We are traveling and have our dog with us, he's 6 pounds and sits in a stroller. Will he be allowed if we will be at the outdoor area?

    They have an outdoor seating area that is covered and heated and a pup was there when we were. :)

    Is this a kid friendly restaurant? Traveling from Charlotte and wanted to try this place but will have our 10 year old and 1 year old. They are both well behaved and act right but I'm just not familiar with the place

    Yes kid friendly

    Can they order McDonald's for me?

    Dumb question.

    What's the attire? Traveling from Texas and thought jeans and nice shirt would be suitable?

    I'd say 'smart / casual' but I saw men in shorts and jeans.

    How loud is this restaurant?

    Not at all. At least when I was there. Just regular table chatter. This is more of a date night restaurant then hang out for drinks after work restaurant.

    How is the outdoor patio for those who have dined there? Planning a large (12+ adults) group dinner there in June and was told that was where there was seating availability. Thanks in advance.

    The patio and garden are really nice. They have a covered and uncovered area. It was a little windy when we were there though.

    How is the fish and grits and how much does it cost?

    I have only seen the shrimp and grits and it $13

    Is this restaurant accessable?

    Yes. It's one level, spacious seating and very accessible.

    Will be traveling with our dog. Outside seating pet friendly?

    Only if it's a service animal.

    During our Savannah eating bonanza, we had brunch at Common Restaurant. The brunch menu is fairly…read moreextensive, so we had some difficulty choosing what to order....but definitely come hungry because the portions are large and the food is pretty rich. To share amongst the table, we ordered the cinnamon toast banane and crispy gouda grit croquettes. Thumbs up on both, particularly the croquettes which were the right balance of gooey and structured enough to eat with the delicious sauce on the side. The cinnamon toast banane was not so much toast as cinnamon rolls with bananas foster; the cinnamon rolls were really tasty and the bananas foster was good, though the bourbon flavor was strong. For my entree, I ordered one of the lighter vegetarian dishes - the mushroom tartine with tomato soup. I think it is one of the lighter dishes - certainly lighter than what my dining companions ordered - but it was still quite rich with a fair amount of gouda fondue in the tomato bisque soup. The mushroom tartine/sandwich was really flavorful with the pesto, cheese and tons of mushrooms. The restaurant is quite large with an upstairs seating area.

However, the lady at the front was not welcoming to us with our children. She said upfront that there are no kid menus, high chairs and strollers had to be placed elsewhere. I get it, it is good for us to know but it came across a bit unfriendly. She also did not want my daughter to momentarily sit in the waiting area with the other guests. I would understand if this was a fine dining upscale restaurant that was quiet but the ambiance was very ordinary. There was regular restaurant noise and people dressed casually. If you are going to advertise your establishment as "good for kids" please consider the way you are talking to families who want to dine here.

Best dinner we ate the whole time we were in Savannah! Everything was cooked to perfection and seasoned perfectly and deliciously!

I'm absolutely glad I picked it. Walking in, we were greeted with smiles. The house/restaurant was stunning. It was quirky but still had its charm. We were escorted to our table, which was an odd little table halfway up the stairs, away from everyone. We were told that table was meant of anniversaries/intimate events. It felt awkward at first but it ended up being fun people watching and listening in to conversations as people walked by. Colton was our server. He was great. Extremely knowledgeable. He walked us through the menu, offered great suggestions on food and wine, did a proper wine service, and even properly pronounced the region in which the wine was from. Colton definitely made us feel special and gave us an incredible experience. I'll definitely give it to Common Thread. The knowledge in which every staff member presented was incredible. As every person dropped off an item at the table, they accurately described the dish in detail before they walked away. I've been in the restaurant industry for almost 20 years; serving, bartending, and managing numerous different types of restaurants, from casual to fine dining. I've opened up a few restaurants and have been a trainer as well. Common Thread is operating at a high level in terms of the staff's ability. The food: incredible. We started with one of each oyster, and it was insane how much flavor was packed in them. Our first course was also accompanied with the hand roll and the apple beet salad. The hand roll was fantastic. The beet salad felt like it needed some sort of acid/citrus with it, but still had great flavor. Course two was the mushroom cannelloni and the orecchiette. Both were phenomenal. My wife was obsessed with the cannelloni, the butternut squash puree was a perfect accompaniment. The pesto/parmesan foam on the orecchiette was an excellent touch. Course three we went against Colton's suggestion for the pork chop (almost got both, we were stuffed), and got the Ribeye. Great char, cooked perfectly. The peppercorn jus was an excellent topper for it. For dessert, we opted for the sticky toffee pudding. Although it wasn't sticky, the ginger pairing with it was an excellent touch. This is one of the best experiences we've ever had at a restaurant. This will be a staple for us whenever we're back in Savannah and will definitely be asking for Colton again. He is the kind of server I'd like to have at my restaurant. Props to Common Thread, props to Colton.

Looking around at the tables around us nothing really caught our eye after reading the menu, we didn't want to leave since we were able to get reservations so we got some starters and shareables. There was a couple next to us who was having the same dilemma after over hearing their conversation. The kale salad was okay but a little bitter for my liking and the potato soup had a thick layer of oil on the top which looked intentional but wasn't our cup of tea. The cornbread and mashed potatoes were good but nothing crazy in our opinion to write home about. Service was okay on our end, once our waiter realized we weren't getting any main entrees it felt like he ghosted us with no water until our food came out and then never came back to check in on us until he brought the check. We are going to try to come again next time we are in town in hopes we have a better experience and different menu!

    You must come here at least once to experience this food, service and ambiance…read more Elizabeth on 37th is located in a huge old mansion with dining spread out all over the various rooms. We were sat in what I believe used to be a front parlour, by a window over looking the street. We had a dual service with one person being the "main" server, his name was Michael. He was in charge of giving us the spiel and answering our questions. A woman (I forget her name, sorry! But she was lovely) was in charge of running the food and clearing the plates. It was a very well run machine. The menu is pre set, but there were choices on some of the courses, like course where an option was a soft shelled crab - I definitely wanted to take advantage of that! We started off with Biscuits with butter and homemade orange marmalade, these were delightful, so fluffy and soft, and the marmalade was sweet, not bitter like it sometimes can be. The Amuse bouche was a trio of tiny items: a pimento cheese tart, a mussel with chipotle sauce and panko, and a square of salmon with mild wasabi and ginger. The salmon was definitely my favorite. The fifth course had a special as I noted before, so I opted to go for that, it was a soft shell crab with garlic, herbs and a vidalia onion slaw. Topped with peanuts and a white wine sauce. I think my favorite course of them all was the scallops with the carrots and the whipped ricotta - so simple but so delicious! Phenomenal special occasion place or just to cross off your bucket list. If I am in Savannah again (and the likelihood is high, its such an amazing city), I will be back.

It was dimly lit and had a warm, inviting atmosphere and our server was awesome! To start, we all got the cucumber blossom cocktail. I got mine with tequila and the server was very knowledgeable about the drinks and the liquors that would work well with each one. We decided the best route for us was to split 2 apps and 2 entrees. For appetizers, we went with the focaccia and the crispy brussel sprouts. Both were AMAZING! I always love bread to start a meal. And the Brussels were nice and soaked in balsamic glaze, which maybe diminished the "crispy" in the title... but I didn't mind because they were delicious. For our entrees, we went with the gnocchi and the catfish served over grits. I would say the standout was the catfish. The gnocchi was good, but not as good as the other dishes we had. Overall we had a great experience splurging a bit on a nice meal. I would definitely recommend getting a reservation on the weekends. They seemed to be busy!
