In town for FFW at GSU and saw rooftop patio looked empty so we swung on in. Not a ton of parking unless you park in lot adjacent to them. However, lots of seating options! Outdoor covered seating, rooftop covered seating and indoor. It was pretty packed down below but we grabbed 2 rooftop bar seats up top. From there, everything was perfect. Honestly, this place was the best I've eaten at EVER in the 'Boro. 5 stars on atmosphere, food, view and service. We opted for brunch menu but did the pretzel appetizer with beer cheese. The beer cheese was thicker than normal but good. I did the French toast burger with fried okra. Daaayum, tasted like a fluffy McGriddle but much larger! I could barely finish it. GET THE LEE'S SAUCE FOR DIPPING! It's like the Zax sauce but with more tang and kick. We accompanied our meal with a pitcher of electric lemonade (a Statesboro staple, going back to the days of Wild Wings & Dick's Dawg House). The entire experience was like "The Run" by AP (no, not the runs ).

Definitely probably one of the better restaurants in the area though. The Diet Coke was really good. The fried okra was not. Well priced for the food. The restaurant lives up to its name as there are a lot of gnats. Once the staff turned the fans on it was not as bad. My chicken parm sandwich was good, but probably wouldn't order it again and would stick with more classic options. Good casual place in the area though that does the trick for a good price.

This establishment is basically attractive to live music lovers. They have plenty of room to dance. Make sure you go out on the deck to enjoy the view of the pond. However, due to having half of the building not being temperature controlled, it is going to be hot during the summer and cold during the winter. Make sure you dress appropriately.

She chatted with me for a few minutes asking about the football game I was in town to see. Even though I was rooting for the out of town team, Marshall, she didn't seem to mind;) I would recommend giving them a try!

You're sure to hear songs that you know and love as some of the musicians play acoustically and some with driving electric tones. Don't forget to visit the restrooms upstairs. The men's room is interesting and quite tight but nicely appointed down to the guitar-shaped mirror. I hope to see you there!

Acoustically tuned room, great sight lines and one superb bourbon, whisky selection available. They have sponsored blues music series that brings some of the very best blues artists to musically narcoleptic Bluffton, be sure to check that out.

Did I mention the bonbons and whiskeys are some of the best in town, plus they have tasting flights available. And yes it is a listening room, ample deck to talk loudly to friends on without drowning out music.

That would not be any further from the truth. Located above the Corner Perk, this venue appeals to all ages and provides great opportunities for "up & coming" musicians as well as those who have seen moderate success and looking to rebuild their musical careers. I would categorize it similar to Bluebird in Nashville or Night Owl Cafe in NYC where the venue is quite intimate, acoustics are excellent and staff is very friendly. They have a full service bar with drinks averaging around $9.00 for a cocktail----good pours, though. The higher cost seats are similar to church pews. There are lower cost seats off the side which I would refer to as the peanut gallery. You can also get seats at the bar if you get there early. Costs for admission during a featured artist could range from $15-40. Standby tix could be less. If you like live events with an intimate setting, this is your place.

It was your average dive bar. There was an extensive beer wall list. The drinks list was very sugary and more for 20-somethings. Not my vibe, so I went for gin. The bartenders were friendly and funny. I would go back to the bar for the music/vibes and stick with beer or gin & tonics.

While the restaurants for the most part are nothing to write home about (several of which I also reviewed separately), the ambiance and beautiful riverfront dining is. This is a multi-purpose area.

Restaurants range from pizza/Italian, Mexican/tacos, a rooftop bar, gelato, a chophouse. There is a burger place, a biergarten, seafood. A few places that sell art and some exhibits by artists in residence. Shopping includes jewelry, cookies, outdoor/clothing/apparel, and other boutiques. A great place to walk, browse, people watch, and just relax, and is nearby the main hub of Savannah.

One had fried banana peppers. The other side more classic with toppings. Son said it was really good. Others had the ahi tuna salad. Tuna was perfectly rare. Salad was good and the wasabi dressing had great flavor without being too spicy. Service was quick even though jam packed. Also very friendly.

Treylor Park was probably exactly what we needed at 11:30 at night…read more It's somewhere between a diner and a sports bar, but the decor is what makes it. 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.
