    Hushpuppies
    Emily K.

    Stopped in for an early dinner and it was a fine spot. We got seated at a table then went up to the counter to order which was a little odd! I got the peel and eat shrimp which were seasoned nicely but a little mushy and overcooked. We also split the hush puppies (again, slightly undercooked and pale/mushy inside) but the fried shrimp was good. It was decently busy while we were there! The one woman working the counter was attentive and brought our food out quickly, but I imagine there's better seafood spots to hit downtown.

    Clam strips
    Al J.

    The setting feels relaxed and highly welcoming. Staff members are notably friendly, and the food is excellent. We tried the clam chowder, crab pie, and fried clam strips, all seasoned to perfection. We will certainly return.

    Our Famous Lowcountry Boil, side of cold slow and sweet potato fries.
    Christy C H.

    The seafood was very fresh. We went for lunch and weren't that hungry so we didn't order as much as we wanted to. Out of everything we tried, my husband's favorite was the corn. It was so good that we ended up ordering an extra side. Since it was lunchtime, it wasn't very crowded. We actually tried coming the night before around 7:30 pm but it was quite busy and we had to catch a 9 pm movie, so we didn't want to wait. The service was good, and all the staff were friendly. They explained how the ordering process worked once we were seated. The space was nice and the tables weren't too cramped together.

    Seafood boil!

    Loved our lunch. I will say as good as it was, I'm giving it 4 stars because I think the prices are high for order at a counter meals.

    Fried Fish Cone
    Michael N.

    We opted for fried fish here for lunch. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and very helpful. My wife loved her shrimp tacos, and my fried fish cone was unique, yet very delicious. There was a large amount of fish in my cone. It was very filling on its own. The coleslaw inside was spicy (had some tumeric flavors) and really counterbalanced nicely with the sweetness of the cone and the tanginess of the shack sauce. The location is casual and relaxed but clean and inviting. Many other diners were eating the low country boil or other fried fish. I highly recommend this for seafood while in Savannah.

    Seems like they're slicing scallops to make one go further.
    Hali S.

    The quality of this place has gone downhill over the years. We visit Savannah every year and have made this place a staple every visit, but I think this time was the last. The prices have gone up and portions down. Not only that, but the quality of the ingredients seems to have gone down too. We did the Shack Attack and split it as we always have-- it seems like they're taking the scallops to a mandolin and slicing them into strips. Every scallop in our basket was about the thickness of a quarter. Unfortunately we won't be back.

    Shrimp in Steamin' Combos

    The shrimp is not fresh at all...tastes bad and smells off Shrimp & Snow Crab Leg steaming combos

    Chicken tenders and sweet potato fries
    Rick P.

    Read about the "voted best low country boil in savannah. Had to find out. And yes. Definitely lived up to the name. 2 cobbettes of corn. Lots of shrimp and andouile sausage. Make sure it is deveined and tails off on the shrimp. Very good. Candyce had the chicken tender combo with the sweet potato fries. With hush puppies to share. Very good all around and worth the wait.

    Chloe M.

    Super tasty quick lunch while shopping in the historic district. Perhaps a tad on the top end price-wise but the portions are plentiful. Seafood was fresh and the smoked sausage was top tier. Our itinerary had a short window to eat and the fast casual service setup ensured we were able to make our meetup. Will definitely stop in again when in Savannah.

    Fried Shrimp Po' Boy & Crawfish Steamin Combo
    Claire H.

    Craving seafood? This is the place! They've been recognized in multiple channels like food network, so definitely take their word for it. My friend and I were lucky to not have a long wait. Once you get sat and decide what to order, you go to the counter to order. We went ahead and ordered the fried shrimp po'boy with sweet potato fries and crawfish steamed boil. The total came out to be around $40 with tip of course. The po'boy and fries were so flavorful; the seasoning was all there and so fresh. The crawfish was good too. It comes with potatoes and 2 corn on the cobs, but it was hard to get the meat out of the tail (I've been told that means it's not as fresh as it should be). But the seasoning was also there, and brought everything together perfectly! Service was good too, and the staff were very attentive and welcoming. Definitely worth the try!!

    Fried Calamari Cone Boiled Red Potatoes
    Jordan P.

    Great food and fast service! Got the hush puppies, calamari cone and seafood boil with everything and added sausage. Food was absolutely incredible and tons of flavor, just wish the food came out hot or at least warmer. Love that the cone was sweet. Would recommend!

    Low Country Boil
    Jim C.

    Just a few doors down from Leopold's Ice Cream, this is the perfect spot for a low country boil. Packed with shrimp, beef sausage, potatoes and two pieces of corn on the cob. It's dripping with buttery spices but I he lemon pepper and Cajun seasonings are both pretty light. You can add cocktail sauce, tartar sauce and hot sauce and I'm sure you can request extra seasoning. It's a filling meal with just enough room for Leopold's to follow.

    Steamed boil ready to be unwrapped
    Phi L.

    This restaurant is brilliant! You are seated, but when you are ready, you go to the counter to order. Fountain drinks so you get at many refills as you wish. Food is steamed or fried. They offer gloves and bibs. My family of 6 was able to eat a variety. Staff were efficient and quick! Clean and easy and very tasty.

    Ask the Community - Savannah Seafood Shack

    Is there outdoor seating for people with dogs?

    Yes, when we were there they had two small tables outside for two people each. Two people were eating outside with their dogs and one of the workers even brought out a water bowl for the dog.

    Is this a sit-down restaurant with servers or just a place to get take-out?

    Sit-down, but pretty much no service. You stand in line to order at the counter, find a place to sit (or they might help you find a place to sit), and someone will bring your food to you. Think of Panera Bread.

    Do they have a raw bar?

    No. This is more of a fried seafood place.

During my visit, we…read morepopped in here for an early dinner and, even without a reservation, we got seated fairly quickly. So, that was already a great sign - considering the restuarnt was quite busy. We opted to sit outdoors to enjoy the lovely weather, and as soon as we were seated, we were greeted by our server, and it was smooth sailing. Our drinks and food arrived quickly, and everything was pretty tasty. The restaurant has ample seating throughout, ranging from indoor to outdoor and rooftop seating. It has a modern feel to it, with nautical decor to play on the Oyster Bar it is known for. The staff are super chipper (or so they were that day we arrived). And the overall service was pretty quick in my opinion, even during the start of their dinner rush. So, overall, I was already pretty impressed. For the food, we decided to share the Pomegranate Ceviche, which included their market fish, pomegranate, pickled green tomatoes, shallots, serrano peppers, and okra hot sauce. It was served with fried wontons as a chip substitute, and WOW, oh WOW! I had never had fried wontons used as chips before, and it was absolutely delightful. For our entree, we also shared the Seared Red Snapper (which included sweet & sour bell pepper escovitch, spinach, and yellow rice), and it was YUM!! I don't remember the exact drink I ordered, but it was also very tasty. Overall, the first-time experience was quite delightful. I would definitely visit Sorry Charlie's again! I'd also like to try their Brunch out as I heard it was also a vibe / great experience.

One of us ordered the ceviche and she said there was no flavor in it whatsoever and didn't eat more than a few bites. The Mac and cheese was delicious, I could've eaten a larger size but the side size was definitely a healthy portion. The oysters were the stars of the show for the rest of my party as they are all fresh. One person ordered a po boy to go and it came out on a plate so we asked for a to go container and it took two to fit the sandwich and fries. We asked if they had a bigger container as it was one of the round plastic ones and the waitress said no but that's what they usually put it in and we cut it in half and still had to squish it in there which was just a little odd. They were having some plumbing/running water issue or something and all the bathrooms were closed so we had to go use another establishments restroom while eating, luckily we knew where we could go that was close. Just an odd experience overall. Not terrible, not great.

Been here for both dinner and lunch. All this said, I think my approach to this review is comprehensive. With regard to food, I think they have a decent (not expansive) selection of food, which I think lends itself to quality. They do most things really well. This said, I do think there is inconsistency based on staff at the restaurant. On one occasion they have accommodated a request, and on another I was denied the exact same request. I found this frustrating. On one occasion I've also seen management talk down to staff here, which is a big no no for me. All people (especially staff) are due respect and this rubbed me the wrong way. This was an isolated incident but it definitely made my dining experience uncomfortable. Especially because I was getting excellent service from the server!!! I've always had quality service from servers here. In the future, I would come to Rhett for convenience as a hotel guest (the hotel is lovely), but would likely not spend my money if I wasn't staying at the hotel. Overall- it's good food, decent ambiance... but there are soooo many good options in Savannah. You have to be exceptional to stand out in that city.

It's right in the heart of downtown off Congress Street and across from the Rail Pub. There is street parking, but being downtown, it can definitely be limited. I finally stopped in after dinner hours around 7pm on Friday. Since it was date night we ordered the raw tower, which comes stacked with everything under the sun: oysters, shrimp, snow crab, lobster and mussels. I also ordered scallops and asked if it could be prepared without butter because of my dairy allergy. The kitchen has no problem making them with olive oil instead. Super delicious! I enjoyed it so much that I came back the following weekend with friends. I made reservations online during happy hour (4-6pm) and we were lucky enough to be seated in the small back dining room tucked away behind the bar. Our server was wonderful and very attentive, and I especially appreciated that she actually paid attention to the allergy notes I included with my reservations. Of course we all ordered a dozen oysters each because they're $1 during happy hour and who can beat that? I ordered the scallops again because I liked them so much the first time, and around the table we had a mixture of lobster, mussels, dressed oysters, turtle cheesecake, finishing everything off with espresso martinis. Hands down delicious. The service was top-tier too. Our server never hovered, but somehow always checked on us at just the right time and made sure we had everything we needed. Two great visits so far and I'll absolutely be back to try more of the menu.

The whole place is designed to feel like the inside of a trailer--spray-painted antique chandeliers, old pictures of different trailer parks, and random little details everywhere. It's kitschy, but very intentional, and honestly pretty cool. We came in late after a 4h drive into town after work, and the staff was still super friendly and accommodating. No "we're about to close" energy, which I appreciated. We started with the creamy collard dip, which is basically their take on spinach-artichoke dip, but with collards. Really good. I do think the chips were a little too heavy for the dip--a thinner chip would've been perfect--but that's a small note. The chicken pancake tacos were probably my favorite. The chicken was fried perfectly and still really moist. And at this point, I'm convinced Savannah just knows how to cook chicken. Everywhere we went, the chicken was consistently good. My partner got the grilled apple pie sandwich, which has fried chicken, grilled apples and bacon. He's not even a big pork person, but that bacon was so crispy and the whole combination just worked. Even the waffle fries were good--crispy, fresh and actually seasoned. We had the Grateful Dead and Wicked Kiwi cocktails, plus a couple of shots, and the drinks were strong, good and reasonably priced. Honestly, I don't have a ton of notes here. It's not trying to be some elevated dining experience. It's just a really good late-night spot with good food, strong drinks, friendly service and a fun atmosphere. We sat inside because Savannah in August was not about to have us sitting on anybody's patio. Definitely recommend, especially if you're looking for somewhere to eat late. It was a vibe, the food was good, and it did exactly what it needed to do.
