    The rooftop view is breathtaking. The restaurant is immaculately clean and exudes a relaxed ambiance. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. We visited for the Mother's Day brunch, which was buffet-style. The food was delectable. Make sure you ask for Nicky to be your waitress. She was amazing, and gave some great advice and recommendations.

    Apple salad

    I always enjoy a good rooftop! This one was no exception. It's located inside of a hotel on the 8th floor. When you walk in, the vibe feels relaxed and adult which I look forward to when I'm vacationing. Unfortunately they sat a woman and two little children by me :(. I had a delicious margarita in my hand so I was able to move past it. The apple salad was refreshing and delicious. I was so pleased. Service was cool. The view is fantastic from many directions.

    Super cute rooftop bar at the top of the AC hotel. The service was great, ambience was nice, and the food and drinks were delicious. I loved how so many things were purple - my drink, the napkins, part of the staff's outfits. The drinks were definitely a bit pricey, but that's the norm for Savannah rooftop bars. Definitely worth a visit! Wish I made time to go back during the day to check out the view.

    Lavender Mule - delicious

    Lavender Rooftop Kitchen and Bar offers an exceptional view that truly stands out. I had the pleasure of enjoying their European-style breakfast at sunrise and an early dinner during sunset--both experiences were beautiful and memorable. The food offerings are decent, and the service meets expectations; however, there is room to elevate the overall food quality. I ordered the Manchego with Prosciutto, which was overly salty to the point that it became difficult to enjoy without accompanying bread. The short rib large plate was rather bland, requiring additional seasoning with salt and pepper to enhance the flavor. On the other hand, the Ropa Vieja was quite good--tasty and satisfying. I was surprised by the generous portion of rice served alongside it, which wasn't indicated on the menu, to the extent that it overshadowed the beef stew in the dish. I visited Lavender Rooftop Kitchen several times due to its convenient location near the Savannah Convention Center, where I attended a trade show.

    Albondigas (meatballs)
    Shizelle N.

    This place was a little bougie inside and out and I loved that. The Lavender martini was delicious. My friend said the Albondigas (meatballs) were delicious. They were served in a cute little cauldron. My hubby had the salad and weren't crazy about the croutons in the salad, but overall the salad was good. Churros were light and fluffy. Chocolate sauce could have been a little thicker. The view though is lovely! Seats were comfy. We had great service!

    Paella
    Andrea T.

    We have been to the Lavender Rooftop Kitchen twice and both times have been great experience! Make sure you go right before sunset to get a good view! The staff is amazing and very accommodating. Our favorite dish is the paella, hands down it is the best one we've had in a really long time. Definitely recommend!

    It is a great view. Probably one of the best I've seen while working in Savannah. The patio/deck is comfortable and has several different types of seating. Tables. Soft chairs with smaller tables. Larger tables with more chairs. My chair was cush and I could either lean forward and enjoy my meal, or lean back and relish my drink. Initially service was a little slow, but that wasn't my server's fault. He was sat with me, who had a reservation, and a large family. He handled it all with grace. After the initial double seat, Chris checked on my over and over and was so helpful and charming. I had girl dinner on this night, so chose from the small plates. I had the chef's selection, essentially a charcuterie board. Mine had a delightfully unexpected selection of wagyu cold cuts, I think a type of pepperoni, hummus, pita (it was cold, toast it better please!), another type of smoked cheese, and this super weird, yet somehow so cool French onion cheddar cheese. It was nutty, oniony, and super weird, but I have never had anything like it and applaud this random Savannah rooftop bar for stepping out on a ledge! I had no idea what it was, so my sever went out of his way to find out and even try it himself. We had a fun conversation about the taste. I also had the tomato and prosciutto toast, which in theory would be good, but just wasn't my style. Something tasted a little musty about it, but I think that's a me thing. Again, you could do a little better on the serving temp and seasoning of some of these things. And finally I had the duck fat fries. These were okay. Served with aioli. large and hearty, but I'm not sure I would order these again. They also have large plates, like fish tacos, the smash burger, short rib, steak, pappardelle, pork tenderloin. They also have salads (Caesar, roasted beet/fried green tomatoes, summer peach). The Lavender martini was too sweet for me, but others around me seemed to enjoy it. The shipyard margarita was okay, but I wouldn't order it again. The smoked Manhattan was indeed smoky, deep, and moody, and I would order that again. Happened to be my server's favorite. My server really was great. I can't rave enough about Chris N. He was attentive, kind, made great suggestions, and went above and beyond for me. He also worked with a hostess to address an overly intoxicated guest who was disrupting the whole deck. Thank you! Again, the views are beautiful. Located in the AC hotel. Worth a visit.

    The Lavender is located on the top floor of the brand new Marriott AC hotel in downtown Savannah. This establishment offers beautiful views of the Savannah River comparable to any restaurant in Savannah. Online reservations were pretty easy to make, and there is plenty of free parking in the area. As a dining establishment in the south, you would assume the Lavender offers fresh-brewed iced tea, but that is not the case. The iced tea I ordered was canned, so this was a huge disappointment. The menu is medium-sized and I ordered the double smashburger with fries, as well as several small dishes of crispy potatoes and chicken wings to share with Valarie G. The service was exceptional, with the food arriving hot with an above-average taste for a hotel restaurant. Our entire experience lasted about an hour and a half, with no pressure to leave at all. I enjoyed our time here at the Lavender. It is highly recommended, especially if you want to enjoy delicious food and gorgeous views of the Savannah River.

    Smoked Manhattan & Espresso Martini
    Lindsay S.

    Located atop the AC Hotel Savannah, the Lavender Rooftop Bar and Restaurant has a chill vibe. The color palette is neutral, a lot less showy than other rooftop bars in Savannah. With a low-key vibe, this is a great place to grab a cocktail, sitback and enjoy the river view. They have a delicious cocktail menu. I had the season pumpkin espresso martini. I'll be back to try the lavender martini. We ordered the crispy potatoes, which were good. My husband really enjoyed them. We also shared the smash burger. It was so good! One of the best burgers I've had in a while. The beer cheese on the burger was delicious. The spiral fries were also really delicious and such a large portion. I'm looking forward to trying more menu items!

    We loved this place. Food was good. Views were excellent. Service was very good. We had dinner during sunset and stayed awhile. No one rushed us out. We definitely will go again. There is a variety of food options.

    The most amazing view for a nightcap if you're outside. They also have friendly staff and surprisingly quick food service .

    Just check out the view from this place!

    Best views, try to get there right before sunset. Good drinks, I would like more vegetarian options but you know... it's the south.

    Smoked manhattan
    Harry G.

    This is the first weekend they are open and I'm thankful to have gotten the chance to try them. It's an amazing space and has so much potential for greatness. Got to have some of their signature drinks (lavender martini and smoked Manhattan) and had some of their food as well. The chefs charcuterie board is amazing but did have to order extra bread because they don't give enough. The crispy potatoes with pesto aioli is delish. Their calacas fish tacos are amazing though a bit wet/messy. Sara was out server and she was awesome and attentive. I think this will be a great addition to the Savannah rooftop scene and I can't wait to see all they do with and for the city.

    The view is breathtaking; however, the food is good with the price point. Drinks are good but not amazing.

To start, I had an iced matcha latte, which I barely drank because it was so sweet. I do not add sugar to my matcha. But the server didn't ask my preference either, so I'm not sure if there is sugar in the matcha mix or if it was added upon preparation. I had an avocado toast for my entree, which is categorized under the sandwich section and does not include a side. It was okay. The bread was generally thin and soggly under the toast. There were large chunks of feta which I had to cut up to make more palatable. The roasted tomatoes were interesting. Overally, not the best avocado toast I've ever had. I ordered a chocolate croissant to accompany my meal, and this was by far the best part. Laminated well on the outside. Soft on the inside. My server was nice. Food was delivered quickly. Overall, I would likely not return if I stayed at the Perry Lane Hotel again, since there are so many other breakfast places nearby to try.

Ambiance is prohibition bar vibes so a little more rustic and casual. I was a bit annoyed by the hostess. We had a reservation for our party of 6 and arrived about 15 minutes early. I asked if we could grab drinks at the bar and she kept coming up with excuses on why we couldn't stand or sit in certain areas. Finally, I just asked her to come up with a solution because we had 15 minutes to kill and they didn't have a waiting area. Funny enough, she decided then to get our table ready. It was just odd. Our server was from Ukraine so she was efficient and fast. Not super friendly or chatty with us which missed the mark on Southern hospitality and made our experience feel cold compared to our previous dinner experiences in town. I don't fault her for it though as she did her job. We ordered an excessive amount of starters and some of the entrees. The stand outs for me was the crispy Brussels sprouts, roasted bone marrow, steamed mussels, and grilled octopus. Skip any of the bread options. They weren't even toasted. For entrees, we also decided to share them. The pork chop and NY strip were stand outs. We ended up sending back the halibut. It tasted mealy and freeze burnt. Skip the crispy Japanese eggplant. I was expecting a grilled dish and it was actually fried with a thick batter. Too heavy for my liking. Overall, we enjoyed our meal but not somewhere I am dying to go back to.
