    Fish Tacos, crispy shrimp, Sliced Tomatoes, key lime pie

    Food quantity: 7/10 Food quality: 6/10 Service: 7/10 Ambiance: 8/10 Overall rating: 7/10 Food was just okay, sitting out on the dock was relaxing. Would not recommend the food, but it was a nice place to gather.

    I don't even know where to begin about this place! We came here on my fiancés birthday. We ordered fried shrimp with crispy okra, roasted oysters and a blue crab roll. Everything was so so so good and so fresh. If I could give this place 50 stars I would. The flowers everywhere were beautiful and it's perfectly placed on a quiet place on the water, with a great view of incoming military helicopters. We came back twice while in town, if it were up to me I probably would have come back daily. Everyone there was also very nice and made great suggestions for our food.

    The food was superb and the atmosphere was great. Amazing views of the water. I really enjoyed the fried okra.

    Favorite casual spot in Savannah that is dog friendly!! All outdoor seating on a deck along the water. Order first at the counter then grab a number. It was the middle of the day so we were just there for a snack but I definitely want to return for lunch so I can order more items. We got the she crab soup and grilled oysters and both were amazing. Seasoning on point and everything was fresh and flavorful. Highly recommend.

    Delicious food & drinks! Lowkey place during the day :) good vibes- casual & comfortable. You order at window and they bring you out food & drinks

    Sat on  the deck with our dog! Beautiful views &  you can pull your boat up as well & dock it.

    On the water with beautiful views, great ambience. The fish tacos were fresh and very tasty along with the side of seasoned black beans and rice. The area on the water was beautiful and we were allowed to bring our dog.

    Perfect Caesar Salad and Fish Tacos with a watermelon margarita

    The best part of the experience was the cocktail. It was perfectly balanced and tasted amazing. The food was good but nothing crazy. The vibe of the place if definitely what makes it special. Cool location. You also have to order yourself at the counter and they bring you the food.

    If you're looking for the perfect mix of laid-back vibes and fresh coastal flavors, Wyld Dock Bar is the spot. They deliver the backyard, friend with a dock atmosphere that you didn't know that you needed... or maybe that's exactly what you're looking for! Drink Highlights: The Sangria - Fruity and refreshing The Paloma - Citrusy but missing it's brightness Food Highlights: Oysters Wyld - Fresh, briny, and topped just right. I wanted more Ceviche - Light, zesty, and full of flavor Crispy Local Shrimp - Golden, crunchy perfection. I needed more Crab Roll - Soft, buttery bun packed with crab Crispy Rock Shrimp Tacos - A must-try with the perfect crunch! Hear me out, throw out the ketchup! Don't even look for it. You don't want that on their perfectly cooked fries. Use their house made horseradish tarter sauce as your dip of choice. Whether you're coming for the food, the drinks, or just the view and atmosphere -- Wyld is the kind of spot that keeps you coming back. IG: @thewylddockbar

    What to say that isn't good about this place? I'm from SoCal & was so excited for some good food while visiting GA. And this place did not disappoint: everything from the okra, to the tacos, to the rolls, wow: amazing! The servers and cashier were very very nice, and never rushed us. They were very helpful in guiding me what to order! The view is awesome here right by the dock: definitely a place to come to for that "southern" feel by the water! Honestly would come here more often if I was local! Highly recommend coming here!

    The scenery here is breathtaking and very peaceful! My son and I were recommended we come to this place for that reason. I wasn't really sure what to expect food wise. One thing that's different here i wasn't use to was that they wipe your card before you order and they dont close our your tap until you leave. My son ordered a cheese burger and fries. I had a shrimp roll and fries w/ bar drink. I dont remember the name of it. But it wasn't my favorite. The Shrimp roll had a very odd flavor to it. I wasn't a fan of. I would give it a 5 /10. My son loved the cheese burger he said it was one of the best he had. I will say for price I paid for everything the food wasn't worth it.

    You drive to the end of a residential area and the restaurant parking lot is in front of you. The place reminded us of our travels of seafood restaurants in New England. A little different service set up. As you walk in you are directed to a place to order your food and drinks. No sit down service. We ordered and got a number and proceeded to the deck with tables. They are under shade and they have fans throughout. We had our two beers to the table quickly followed by our food. We split fried clams, shrimp platter, and fried okra. The clams were fried perfectly and quite tasty. A perfect size to share. The fried shrimp and fries were also good. We got a good serving of shrimp and seasoned fries. The okra was ok. I like more of a batter on my okra. Once done you return to where you ordered and pay. Eating by the water was nice.

    I recently saw a Tik Tok video about this hidden gem and I knew I had to try it. Initially, the greeting we received wasn't very friendly or welcoming but after speaking with other staff members who were more helpful it got better. It's a bit confusing as a first timer because you pay for your drinks and food up front at a "concession stand" type location and then the server brings your items out. Otherwise no one comes around asking what you need or want. But everything we had was so delicious and the seafood was so fresh. The drinks were even a hit. You can't forget about the gorgeous views, I was able to take some amazing pictures. I will definitely be back!

    Went here with my daughter and her family. Love the setting. It's on the water and the raised planters were a nice touch. The food was ok. My apple goat cheese salad was really small and lacked any goat cheese flavor. The shrimp dishes we had were fresh shrimp. Tasty! They were very busy but the service was ok. Would consider revisiting if in the area.

    Fish tacos.

I ordered the Lowcountry Boil, which comes with shrimp, corn, potatoes, and sausage. The sausage and potatoes were good, and the seasoning was decent, but I was underwhelmed overall, especially considering the price. The shrimp didn't seem particularly fresh and had some white spots and discoloration that gave me the impression they may have been frozen for quite a while. As a result, the dish didn't quite live up to the hype for me. My wife ordered the Wassaw Redfish, which was recommended by our server, and that ended up being the standout dish of the meal. The redfish was cooked well, the garlic beurre blanc sauce was rich without being overwhelming, and the grits were creamy and flavorful. The shrimp and green beans complemented the dish nicely. Overall, the experience was mixed. The atmosphere was pleasant, and my wife's entrée was very good, but the Lowcountry Boil fell short of expectations. I'd consider coming back to try some of their other menu items, but based on this visit, I wouldn't order the boil again.

    In Savannah for work. Cotton & Rye was suggested on my previous trip but couldn't swing it because…read moreI flew in and out the same day. This time however ... I didn't have a reservation but I showed up minutes before opening to see if I could just grab a spot at the bar or luck out with a table since 1. it's a party of one and 2. I arrived before they opened. I should have bought a lottery ticket because not only did I get a seat, I had an experience that I won't soon forget. Starting with parking. There's a lot next to the restaurant. There's also street parking. I showed up early and was the second car in the lot. There was street parking too but when I left later in the evening, I didn't see spots available then. Then there was the service. EA was aces. She was friendly. Knowledgeable. Attentive. Just go down the list of all the attributes of someone you'd like to represent an establishment in the service industry and you'd check every single box. The team was just as great. As business picked up, the team took care of little things - even just checking in to see how I was doing. Then the food. See pics. I went with all of EA's recommendations including the wine pairings and dessert. If you're a follower, you know that I recommend checking out reviews we have in common to see if our tastes align - but here are my thoughts: Started with the Ceviche. Liked the flavor, though it was missing a punch like it was muted for my taste. I still cleared the plate. I really enjoyed the fried chicken, corn bread and broccolini. I liked both the seafood and mac & cheese but felt they didn't stand out like the fried chicken an corn bread. Remember now, that's my taste buds. I inhaled the panna cotta. Dessert is never optional. I'll sum it up and say that I'd order everything I had again, just probably not the mac & cheese. It was my first meal in Savannah. First time at Cotton & Rye. It won't be my last. And I don't even live in Savannah.

On this visit, we sat outside, and while the outdoor seating does expose you to nature and some insects, the restaurant does fan the area well, even offering table top fans to keep the flies away. The entree I ordered was overall decent, a crab cake Benedict with a side salad - I'm confident if I lived in the area I would find a standard go-to order that would be even better. It was accompanied by a Savannah banana iced coffee which truly hit the spot on a warm day. While the restaurant does have its own parking lot, it does appear to fill up quickly - there's plenty of paid parking available around the park, and for our purposes it gave us a good reason to walk around the park before our meal, and again to walk off our lunch afterwards. Pricing is reasonable at about $25 per person, obviously it can get much pricier depending on whether you're just stopping in or you're making a longer experience of your visit. I would highly recommend this restaurant, more so for the experience than the food alone.. but the food is pretty good too.

The drinks were flowing, the food was cooked well, the service was great--and when I looked over and saw the two-year-old at our table eating the Captain Crunch waffle exactly as intended, cereal AND waffle in the same bite, I knew we had a winner. We started with the mozzarella nuggets and disco fries. The mozzarella nuggets were some of the best I've had. Fresh cuts of mozzarella with this really thin, crispy, almost chicken-fried batter, so you actually get a good bite of CHEESE instead of mostly breading. They came with a chunky, fresh-tasting tomato marinara that worked really well with them. Then there were the disco fries. I'm just going to say it--they did not look good. Mushroom gravy and dollops of pimento cheese over fries is apparently not the most photogenic combination. But they were DELICIOUS. The fries stayed crispy under the gravy, and those little bites of pimento cheese were perfect with it. I'd zhuzh up the presentation a bit, but I wouldn't change much else. Now, back to these catfish and grits. The catfish comes over grits with a chorizo gravy, and when we first saw it, we thought there was no way the fish was going to stay crispy sitting in gravy. We were wrong. The batter was thin and perfectly crisp, the fish was cooked beautifully, and when you got the catfish, grits and chorizo gravy together in one bite? That was it. Easily the star of the meal. We also tried the short rib hash bowl, which was good, but I have notes. I'm personally not an over-easy egg person, but I understand why it's there because the dish needs that moisture. Without it, it's really short rib, potatoes and eggs. I think some type of gravy or sauce would round everything out and take it to the next level. Still good, still fresh--just missing that one thing for me. The chicken and waffles around the table got good reviews too, and for drinks we had the Pep Talk, peach and blueberry sangria, and mimosas with fresh-squeezed orange juice. No complaints from anybody. I also have to mention the service. Everyone was genuinely friendly. We had a toddler with us who was having a moment, and one of the hostesses brought him a little toy to help settle him down. It was such a small gesture, but incredibly thoughtful. Honestly, I don't have much bad to say about The Laundry Diner. If you're asking me where to go for brunch in Savannah, this is at the top of my list. And again--get the catfish and grits.
