    Bufftato
    Olivia S.

    Super fun concept for a quick service restaurant! Spudnik is located at the end of Broughton Street, so it's a little bit outside of the super busy areas. The restaurant is very small with only a few booths and some stools, so I wouldn't come here with a large group unless you're taking your potatoes to-go. You order at the counter in the back and then find somewhere to sit or wait. There was one employee working the whole place when I visited, and they did a great job cranking out potatoes and taking orders! The menu is all loaded twice baked potatoes. They have some really interesting flavor combinations. There's vegetarian/vegan options too. The Bufftato was super tasty! I would never have thought to put crushed up tortilla chips on a baked potato, but it works! The portions are pretty large and filling! This is a great place to grab a quick lunch to fuel your shopping and sightseeing on a trip to Savannah!

    So yummy

    So a group of us were out on a Friday night and decided we were hungry at about ten o'clock. One of us remembered there was a potato place near by. None of us had been there but it sounded interesting. This place is super cute. It's small With three booths and four stools towards the front along a counter. But the potatoes are serviced in a paper bowl with a plastic spoon kind of like a bowl of ice cream so you could literally walk down the street and eat your potato. They have so many fun varieties. I wasn't in an adventurous mood so I just got a potato with cheese and butter. It was so good. We all loved our meals. And the prices are amazing. You can get a dish for 9-11 dollars. They also service alcohol which is fun. We will be back for sure! .

    We were looking for something open late after a concert. This place is open until 2 am. No one wa in at 11pm except the staff. They were so friendly and helpful. I wasn't sure that a baked potato would taste fresh that late....it was so fresh and moist. I had the monterey (nachos in a potato) just the right amount of jalapeño and sour cream. Very tasty. Price is very reasonable. Definitely check this place out if you ate in downtown Savannah.

    At the far west end of Broughton is this small counter-service place specializing in potato entrees. Very simple and basic, reminds me of a fast serve place near college campuses. Good value for yummy savory potato meals. Think many iterations of stuffed potatoes. But can get a good filling meal for about $11. Better a takeout place than sitdown.

    To be brief, this was genuinely one of the most surprisingly good places I've been to. The food was amazing, and we got it after taking to a singular server, who was incredibly kind, patient and helpful! The atmosphere was also great, and the place was really kid friendly. SCAD posters are hung on one side of the wall, while the other wall was covered entirely by sticky-notes, which you're allowed to add to while you're waiting. Overall, this place is great! I'd definitely come again!

    Interesting take on potato dishes. My husband and I had a craving for salty food. They have a good selection of either mashed potato or sweet potato combinations with different toppings. Very tasty. Each dish is quite large.

    The potato bowls were amazing it was flavorful and surprisingly not busy. The person running it was very nice and the atmosphere was quiet and intimate.

    Floor is tiled in Pennies...surprisingly, some have been pried off and stolen. #StarvingArtists

    OMG this place is awesome! Baked potatoes smashed together in a bowl with your choice of gourmet ingredients. The Pizza-Tato seems to be the most popular, but I went with "The Rustic", basalmic glaze mashed with black beans and green onions. My only complaint, and it's not really a complaint, is that these are TOO filling! They only offer one size, and none of us were able to finish! Fun fact: all options are gluten-free. And it's easy to go vegetarian here, too. Fun fact 2: the vintage robot toy holding the menu board has a twin just up the street at the Planet Fun vintage toy store (another of my favorite Savannah shops).

    Just happened to walk upon this little place and really enjoyed it. So much so I broke my number one rule when out of town. Don't go to the same place more than once. Went back the next night for dinner. I had the Monterey and the rustic added grilled chicken each night. There was only one guy working and he was very nice and friendly. The inside is small so you may have to wait for a sit but it is a quaint little place.

    Potato to topping ratio in the Porktato. A lot more potato but I had less total ingredients. Add more to yours!

    Solid bowls, small place. Build your own off menu! Yes, a restaurant centered on potatoes. They have lots of pre-set bowls but they are ready to customize with their add-on menu. I ordered the Porktato, without the tortilla chips but add jalapeños. The pulled pork on top with lots of potato underneath was a great portion for a small dinner. Sadly no potato peel base in the bowl like when I came a couple of years ago! I how they bring those back. The place was nearly empty so it only took about 5 minutes to come out. With the small booths inside and one outside table, this is more of a to-go place. They would be great for a food truck in Starland Yard or elsewhere. Next time: Someone ordered a build your own type bowl after me. It's not listed on the boards behind the counter, but I'll be trying that next time.

    The front door at 10 pm when the time they posted for closing was 3 am(5 hours later)

    I'm a Five Guys fan. I love their food. This experience was incredibly surprising. I write this…read morereview disappointed and upset that I have to. My friends and I grabbed burgers, fries, and drinks in the evening after nine. We were not greeted when we entered. They were not busy. Only two other people were currently customers eating. My first friend has a gluten allergy. She told the gentleman at the register about her allergy. He was incredibly rude. He told her well I'm glad you told me about your allergy, because I didn't hear you the first time. When she repeated it to him at the end. She only wanted to make sure it was on the order clearly. He mocked her with his tone and attitude it was unacceptable. I placed my order and listed out my toppings for my burger. He informed me that was "All the Way" minus pickles and mayo. I told him I wanted pickles but no mayo. He was not thrilled and added the pickles. He then told me for next time not to list out everything. I completed the rest of my order. My friend and I did not tip. We felt his customer service was incredibly lacking. He then announced that people who do not tip get their food last. We had another friend with us she was last to place her order. She then felt pressured into tipping. She placed her order and tipped. While our food was being made the staff in the back was talking about how people who do not tip get their food last on repeat. It was like it was a joke to them. I was going to wait for my food. The service and treatment were ridiculous. We got our food. I actually got mine first, my friend whom ordered last second, then my friend with the gluten allergy hers took the longest to come out. She saw her food up on the back counter. They were just waiting longer to give it to her. The entire experience was unexpected and unpleasant.

    The restaurant was empty other than two young girls eating. I was with two friends. I ordered first…read morebecause I have a food allergy. We were not greeted. No warm welcome like at Moe's. Toward the end of ordering, I couldn't remember if I had already told the cashier, it was for an allergy, So I informed him it was for an allergy. His entire demeanor changed. He starts to angrily tap the screen and tells me that I should have informed him at the beginning of the order and that he couldn't promise it would be right. The body language and the tone of his voice changes toward me at this point on and he became very rude. At this point the line behind our little group has gotten longer so I'm just trying to hurry up. I did not tip for my food because of the customer service and tipping is an option. As soon as my receipt prints up and the cashier see my receipt he becomes loud and obnoxious. He turns around and announces to his team that we have a NON-TIPPER. I get dirty looks from the two staff in the kitchen, and they start repeating loudly "non tippers get their food last" "non tippers must wait" It's late and I really don't want to fight. I've had a long day, and I just want food. I stay at the counter to watch them make my food which is a habit because I have a food allergy. I take my eyes off them for 5 minutes because I noticed that one of my friend's look upset. I step over to check on her and she looks upset because she really wanted an Oreo milkshake, and I know she because she had been talking about it for HOURS and apparently the machine wasn't working so she would just get a coke. This is when the cashier makes this grand and loudly announcement that if she tips, he could make it work for her. So, she is forced into tipping to get a milkshake. I step back over to the counter to watch for my food, but it looks like they are already done? They are putting the bowl into the brown bag on the side. My friends get a table, and I stand to the side to wait for my food. A few minutes go by my food is still sitting on the side. The staff have continued to make announcements to the room about no tippers not being welcome. I almost feel like they are making a game of it. My friends have all gotten their food and I'm still standing there. The cashier is flat out ignoring me. I wave for his attention and point to the bag of food. He looks directly at the bag and tells me that my food isn't ready. He then makes this grand show almost like we were in a drama like he is finally seeing my food. Claiming that they are waiting on fries. I wait a few more seconds, I'm losing my patience and ask how much longer. He then gives me a scoop of the fries and hands over the bag. My friends have long since finished their food. I'm also upset. I open the bag to check on my food. The fries aren't fresh or hot, my burger in a bowl isn't warm or greasy. My paddies are lukewarm and since I didn't watch them make my food and they have been harassing me. I am too scared to even eat my food. I threw the food out. I can't risk it with an allergy, and I don't feel like making a hospital visit. As we are leaving the cashier makes a point to come over and ask how our food was? Ha! I've been to all the Five Guys in town and downtown in the past and I've never been treated this disrespectful over something so simple. This is completely unacceptable and uncalled for, and I feel like I was singled out and targeted.

This is definitely an experience you should try at least once when you're in Savannah. You sit at a communal table with other people who stood in line with you, and the food is already waiting when you sit down. It's served family style, which makes the whole experience feel very unique. The food was delicious! We both especially loved the fried chicken and cornbread dressing. The meal was $35 per person and included sweet tea and dessert. For dessert, you can choose between banana pudding and peach cobbler. Definitely worth stopping by if you're in Savannah!
