First time at this restaurant and first time in Savannah in general. Came for 4th of July weekend and understand that a holiday weekend is busy but nonetheless less disappointed. Arrived to see a much more limited menu than their normal menu that we were excited about. I ordered blackened shrimp basket, my boyfriend had the low country boil, and my friend had the mahi sandwich. We also came for oysters and came to see that they only were offering just one style of oysters. They came out small and with no accompaniments aside from lemon. It was hard to stomach paying $42 for 12 tiny oysters (later seeing their prices were actually upcharged from their normal menu). Service was fine. They were attentive but seemed disorganized and comfused because we had two different servers come to take our orders at different times. At one point they ended up bringing us our waters and drink order twice. The good: Beautiful location on the water perfect for scenery and people watching. The cocktail we had was pretty delicious. All in all the food was just fine. Best dish was probably my blackened shrimp. We probably won't return even for an off holiday trip because the small amount of food for the upcharged prices were not worth it. read more

District Seafood - Beer and the river - Seafood Near Me - Savannah, Georgia

The food was AMAZING!! I was in Savannah for a family trip and several of us chose to eat here. I ordered the Seared Redfish and it was delicious. My daughter, who's been here a few times, ordered the Shrimp & Grits and like her last visit said they were the bomb! My husband ordered Fish & fries and said the fish was good, but he didn't like the fries. I tried 1 then ate as much of them as I could. They were actually pretty good, so maybe his taste was off. The atmosphere was nice and I was sitting in front of the live performer and he did a fantastic job on the guitar. read more

It's a nice place to eat near the river and right outside the JW Marriott. There's some tables and a bar area under the shade. The fresh oysters are probably a hit or miss. The oysters I got were tiny and not plump. The Broiled Oysters - Rockefeller style I got were a lot better and more plump. These tasted smelled and tasted pretty good. Steer away from Anna's gumbo as it was inedible. The taste was so weird and so salty it was like eating salt. The shrimp was hard inside. Unfortunately I had to throw away $16 of gumbo. There was a worker that was just constantly eating French fries with his gloves on near the takeout station. read more

Came 20 minutes before closing Kaitlin sat us at the bar and didn't make us feel rushed. Put our order in and got 2 drinks in about 5 seconds. Friendly and accommodating awesome service from Kaitlin was awesome. I got the fried shrimps and old bay fries. Very tasty. Also the oysters awesome as well. Thanks for making our evening a great one. Will definitely be back. Beautiful views of the river. Over 50 restaurants in almost walking distance. But come by and get a drink and great service from Kaitlin!! read more

For one of the lunches my work team had while staying at the JW Marriott Savannah Plant, we enjoyed a meal outside at District Seafood with the Savannah River in our view. The menu is short and straightforward for lunch at least. Not a large selection, focusing on various fish and shellfish dishes revolving around shrimp, fish and chips, and oysters primarily. If you're looking for a burger or wings, you're not going to find one here. So take note. I enjoyed my crab cake BLT immensely with bacon and tarragon aioli. I also added some Cholula for good measure, as I like the creaminess of that hot sauce with the saltiness and savoriness of the crab cake and bacon on the sandwich. Overall, service was solid, and our drinks and food orders were taken fairly quickly. We enjoyed the view outside, as the skies were clear and not too chilly for the time of year we were there in November. But I'm sure it can get more nippy as you enter the winter months -- my Florida blood is speaking, so pay that no mind. read more

Nice spot to enjoy the Savannah riverfront with some food and drinks. They have TVs, I happened to catch Sunday Night Football during dinner. They have several good beers on tap and a pretty simple menu. I ordered the crispy fish sandwich which was good and a reasonable price. Overall a good experience for a nice casual dinner outdoors on the waterfront! read more

District Seafood - Fish bar by the river - Seafood Near Me - Savannah, Georgia

We were looking for seafood on the river, this place had decent reviews. Great location. Outside seating only, with a covered bar and an overhead open tent for live music with seating for eating. It was confusing trying to figure out if we seat ourselves, wait for someone to seat us or order from the bar and then seat ourselves. We waited in a long line at the bar just to be told, seat yourself and someone will come place your order. The servers were short staffed on a busy Friday evening and overwhemled. Most of the tables that were free had not been cleaned. The menus were lamitaed and dirty. They had food stains and visible fingerprints. It also took a while for someone to greet us just to take our drink order. Once our server came, she was apologetic about the wait, she placed our order and was doing her best to help several other tables simultaneously. Honestly, it didnt take long for our food to come out. The food was disappointing. One positive, it came out hot. We both ordered the seafood platter which was 27 dollars each, totally not worth it. The platter came with haddock. Gross, it was not fresh, it tasted like bland frozen fish sticks. The calamari, was seasonless, and fried super hard. Not enjoyable at all. The shrimp, were decent, but tasted like they had been just breaded and fried, no nothing added. The cucumber salad also had no flavor. We were so disappointed. Look at the pictures, you can also clearly see the portions were skimpy for a platter. Based off of this experience I would not recommend and certainly would not try them again. read more

This was our favorite place to come get a drink and watch the Savannah world go by. Excellent service! But we were not too happy with the food - not terrible, but the fish and chips were over breaded and the french fries were overcooked. But if you're just going to take a break and enjoy the scenery plus the live bands, they have on the weekends. it's a great place to stop and enjoy life on the Savannah River. read more

I wasn't expecting much food wise because of the rating. Of course the atmosphere is favorable and refreshing with the outdoor seating, and it wasn't too crowded. The staff seemed overwhelmed, but some were pleasant, and others were like a touch of melancholy with a bit of niceness attempting to push through. We had to place our order at the bar. Once the food came, I was pleasantly surprised. I ordered the fried shrimp. They were a really good size, fried well, and seem hand breaded in house. The flavor of the breading was really good. The fries were bearable. I do wish they were fresher. Everyone else seemed to have enjoyed their food as well. read more

Simply Trash. With a Beautiful view. Gumbo was at least four days old with a Burt rue. Oysters were smaller than squirrels nuts. Rockefeller I believe had cheddar cheese on them.

I had the pleasure of ending my night at District Seafood last night, Thursday of Memorial Day weekend. The staff were friendly, attentive, and kept my glass full. I witnessed a patron come up 15 min to close to ask that their oyster selection was an all the bartender Kevin Hart said was "if you'd like to order I need to put it in now because we're closing soon" and this patron made a scene in front of his kids accosting Kevin. It was quite shocking to witness - kind reminder to all who are out celebrating the long holiday weekend - staff are working so you can enjoy yourself, not to mention outdoor bars that are hot and high humidity. Let's be kind and courteous to them as they are doing their best to keep our experiences happy. Thanks Kevin and the rest of your team! I come monthly to Savannah for work and will def be back :) read more

On a trip to Savannah to get our son started in college, first night here we decided to visit the riverfront walk and grab some dinner. For a Tuesday night, District Seafood was reasonably crowded (usually a good sign) and we were still able to get a table close to the water. We enjoyed the views and the breeze and the staff were very attentive, friendly, and helpful. The food (blackened shrimp for one of us, shrimp and grits for me) was excellent but not "the best I've ever had" but honestly, for the price (which I suppose is boosted to help cover their rent along the water) I was expecting a little more food for the money. Again, quality was excellent but quantity was less (slightly) than expected. But I'd go back, just with more awareness this time! read more

Great ambiance! Terrible food. My wife and I stopped by for some wine and appetizers. I got the oysters on the half shell. She got a crabcake. These oysters looked like they were shucked yesterday! There was no liquid in the shells. I had to scrape one of the oysters off the side to even get it down my throat. One of those people that never sent food back, but I finally had to question the waitress and ask her about it and they brought out another batch which were somewhat better, but still not freshly shocked. You could just tell and my wife's crabcake was typical bar food, crabcake, deep-fried, overcooked, dry, and full of breading definitely won't be back there to eat. The waitress was wonderful though!!!! read more

Food was very good,wouldc9me back. Low seafood boil was rich & buttery! Shrimp & grits were awesome. read more

District Seafood is parked right along the riverfront, a long bar with no walls. You're going to experience the tugboats and freighters going downriver, the wind and weather (dress accordingly), and some pretty solid seafood. I grabbed a seat since its first come, first served, and ordered a shrimp Po Boy with kettle chips. Both were really good! I was a little disappointed that there was no draft list. They have quite a few taps and its tough to see what's available. There was live music as well, a singer/guitarist that was able to overcome the sound of the cherry picker that was working on the Marriott behind the bar. There are also several TV's playing sports. read more

Great food, decent portions, and great outdoor atmosphere. The service was a bit slow but they were crowded. So, it's not really their fault. Make sure to seat by the river to enjoy the view and the vibe. Very friendly staff. read more

Love this place on plantside property. Wife and I stopped here both of our stays in Savannah and at the JW Marriot. Nice open area, often with music playing nearby. Fried seafood and other fare is great. Or just a great place to have a drink and catch river views. Service is great at well. Deserves higher reviews. read more

Nice view, great food. Service took forever, we were there for almost 2 hours, I wasn't having any drinks only soda and it felt like forever. read more

I don't know why this place isn't rated higher. My husband and I had dinner here our final night in Savannah and we loved it. We were looking for something casual and outside since we wanted to enjoy the weather. This was a short walk from our hotel, the Fairfield Inn, so it was just what we were looking for. Despite this being right on the water in a more touristy spot, service was quick! We got seated at one of the tables and checked out the menu. We decided on the shrimp roll and the crispy fish sandwich. I don't think my husband and I spoke one word to each other while we ate because we enjoyed the food so much! My fish sandwich was so fresh, and I loved that it was with haddock instead of cod. The breading was thin which I appreciated. I think it had cornmeal which gave it great flavor. The old bay fries it came with were absolute fire. Paired with a nice aperol spritz, I really felt like I was on vacation. This was a beautiful spot right on the water, perfect to take a stroll after dinner and enjoy the views. Our sandwiches were $18 each I believe, so I think the prices were more than fair considering the location and quality. read more

My parents and I happened to pass by when we decided to come to the river for a couple hours and stumbled across this place. The view is spectacular and it's on the opposite end which is not very busy and much more clean on the river. (The J W Marriot Hotel Entrance) The vibe is very chill, we had to wait for them to "open" at 11. It's pretty pricey which is typical for Savannah I think. We had Bloody Mary's, Old Bay Fries and Broiled Caper Lemon Oysters. The service was VERY SLOW. We originally ordered the Rockefeller Oysters, said it would be 20 minutes for those and then came back like 7 minutes later and then said it would be an hour, so that's why we opted for the other broiled Oysters instead. BM's were good, but they're small. The fries were good, not too much Old Bay. The Caper Lemon Oysters were ok, they were hard to come off the shell. They didn't shuck them off the shell completely, which I thought was weird. I mean it was an ok place, if you want to be away from the hustle and bustle. But expect to pay the price. read more

This place hit all the right spots for me. It's completely outdoors and by the water, so dress accordingly. Pulled up the the bar and ordered the low country boil while a coworker got the platter. Both had plenty of food and were delicious. The platter was a full pound of shrimp, almost too much for one person! I think we paid around $85 for two and it was worth it. Would definitely come again. read more

Incredible spot on the river! Trista provided friendly, fast service, and the food was delicious. Prices were appropriate for downtown Savannah on the river. We shared the seafood boil and fish and chips between two people and it was perfection. Literally couldn't recommend more! read more

We had a snack and drinks here during our visit to Savannah while staying at the JW Marriott Power Plant. We had fried shrimp with fries. The shrimp was excellent, breaded well, very flavorful. The staff were very friendly and prompt. The weather that evening was pleasant and their location next to the Savannah River was made it a great experience. read more

Wife & myself decided to stop for dinner after a long day of walking & touring area. Staff were courteous & helpful with menu. Decided to have potato soup, french onion soup & split the seafood boil. All were fantastic. The Seafood boil was more than enough for the 2 of us. Actually we did not finish. Sad that we were so full couldn't find room for desert. Highly recommend. read more

We stayed for one night at the JW Marriott and it came with a $33 (weird number) voucher for food a drink. We walked up the the District Seafood bar to ask if they were still open since everything else around there looked closed. Clearly they were shutting down, but they happily made us drinks. Very nice of them. We have been there several times and we really love the Southern Belle cocktail and their shrimp is very good too. It has become a regular stop for us in Savannah and never disappoints. read more

Drinks met expectations--I had the district punch and my husband had a cider. Oysters Rockefeller were overpriced and gummy. Came out lukewarm--could have used another minute or two under the broiler, but I don't think that would have fixed the consistency issue. Service was fine. It was midday on a Saturday and the place wasn't super busy. read more

District Seafood is such a cool experience. It is an outdoor bar right on the river which has a cool environment. We were able to walk up and grab a few seats at the bar without waiting. The seafood gumbo was outstanding. I got the crab sandwich... I was honestly expecting a crab cake sort of sandwich but is was an entire crab which threw me off! My husband got the snapper sandwich which was so good. They had a great selection of local craft beer, and better yet you can take your beer to go! read more

Such a nice spot on the river. Food was sooo good. Everyone enjoyed their meals. Drinks were great. I have no complaints. Server did seem standoffish at first, but it was an extremely hot day so that could be why, but everything came out well.
