    Very small bar located in the Westin. The hours were limited, and it was very busy- so took sometime to get our drinks. Small food menu - also long wait. Staffing is tough these days! Everyone was nice. My only reason for 3 stars. This big resort needs a bigger bar to be open.

    Vegetarian Bowl
    Leah O.

    I'm torn on how many starts to give this restaurant. The view, the service and the Caesar salad are a strong five start. My daughter and I ordered the Mushroom Ravioli and the Vegetarian Bowl and they were only three stars. The combination of flavors on both of these dishes was just weird. And the Vegetarian Bowl was cold which surprised us. We normally eat at the poolside bar and everything on the menu is excellent. This was my second trip here. The shrimp cocktail was bad but the French fries are great! Maybe the meat dishes are better here. The atmosphere is very nice and the view is beautiful. And both visits I had very sweet servers.

    Sliced Beet Salad
    Jonathan W.

    First off, Trudi at the bar was GREAT. I got here late due to travel so I was trying to be courteous and move things alone for her. She slowed me down and made me enjoy! That's such a great quality in a bartender/server. Any general employee honestly. The sliced beet salad was fantastic. Nice mix and balance with the goat cheese, pistachio, red/golden beets and the balsamic/arugula. A+ The short rib was very good. Better than a couple I've had at places touting theirs here in Savannah. One piece was perfect and the other was slightly dry. Great flavor and the sides fit it perfectly. If not for the slightly dry piece it would be a 5 star experience. 4.5 in my book. Thanks Trudi!

    Amazing service, good food and drinks and a great view. The downside was the rooftop seating was closed outdoors so that was disappointing since the weather was lovely...

    Service was great and food was spectacular. The gumbo was worth the drive and the other dishes did not disposing either!

    Lunch menu

    Made reservation through OpenTable for lunch on a Saturday and requested window table for the view. They don't have a bartender in the afternoon so I choose not to get a drink even though our waitresses offered to ask the manager to make a drink. I started with the smoothie, which was good but nothing like I can't make. I chose to go with the restaurant week menu and started with the Tomato plus Burrata, which was good but definitely not the best one I have ever had. It's was a good portion size. For my entree, I got the tacos and my date got the Collard green melt, which came with fries and was definitely better than my meal. Highly recommend sticking with southern food here. I got the red velvet cake, which for some reason has cheesecake icing instead of cream cheese frosting. My date got the Leopoldo's ice cream sandwich, which was delicious- highly recommend it over the cake. The service was slow even though there were not a lot of people at the restaurant. Overall, I had an average experience.

    The Aqua Star is the restaurant located inside the Westin Savannah Harbor Golf Resort and Spa on the second floor. The restaurant has windows that face the rivers, allowing diners to eat and enjoy the river view at the same time. The Aqua Star is open for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. This review will only be for the breakfast and the Father's Day Sunday Brunch. The breakfast buffet had a pretty good spread. They had their omelet station with a chef there to cook omelets or eggs any way you want it. They had their usual hot food station with Bacon, sausage, potatoes, and scrambled eggs. In addition to oatmeal, they also had grits. Bread and toast were also available. After spending the previous days at the Embassy Suite in Orlando, the Aqua Star was a welcome change from the Embassy Suites madness. Missing were all the teenagers and unruly children. It was nice and quiet inside the the restaurant in the mornings. I could enjoy my cup of coffee and watch my the ships on the Savannah River. It was nice. Even though they both had bacon, sausage, and omelets, the food at this Aqua Star tasted much better. The waiters and waitresses did a good job and cleared my plates whenever needed, and were helpful in topping off my coffee. It was a good breakfast buffet. What was interesting was that they also had 2 griddles where you could make you own pancakes. They had the batter and 4 ingredients consisting of cranberries, blueberries, chocolate and pecans. The pancakes were very good. Father's Day just happened to be on the Sunday that we were staying at the Westin Hotel. Both my wife and daughter wanted to celebrate Father's day by eating at the Father's Day Brunch at the Aqua Star restaurant a few hours after eating at their breakfast buffet. In addition to the items that they served at breakfast, they also had other items like seafood. They had oyster's on the half shell, chilled shrimp, oyster's rockefeller, salmon, smoked shrimp, smoked scallops, and a wonderful seafood pot pie. They also had a carving station for the rib roast, and a dessert station where they made banana's fosters. Everything that I had was delicious. They had a pasta station at brunch as well. They let the chef's do their own thing. Instead of making pasta, one of the chef's made a wonderful shrimp sauce for me so that I could have some shrimp and grits. While another chef made some shrimp and waffles for me. Both of the shrimp dishes were delicious. Overall, the breakfast and Sunday Brunch were pretty good. The breakfast was part of a package deal from Westin. It was a great package deal. Unfortunately, the breakfast package did not include the Sunday Brunch. We had to pay for that separately. This is a nice place for both breakfast and brunch.

    Egg White Omelet with Broccoli and White Cheddar with Perfect hashbrowns
    Lori R.

    This review is for breakfast only. They had a buffet for $22. Neither of us felt like we could do it justice, so we opted for off-the-menu. I loved the sound of the egg white omelet with broccoli and white sharp cheddar. It came with perfectly browned hashbrowns and good grain bread toast. Although it sorta kinda sounded healthy, there was a lot of butter going on. Good thing calories don't count when they're not your fault, huh? Meanwhile, Husband enjoyed his scrambled eggs with hashbrowns & bacon (they forgot the bacon, but brought it when he pointed it out). Before we left our Server actually gave us her card and told us she wanted to know about any dining concerns. Wow, never had a Server give us a business card before! We left feeling like they really cared. Another plus here is the view...they even have a couch pointed at the window overlooking the river. Would be a cozy place to hang out and look out.

    So we had read pretty good reviews and it is kind of the only real sit down place in the Westin but tonight with the Christmas stuff going on the food was buffet style. We are not big buffet fans but at $31 each it was a pretty good deal. First off the soup and pizza were cold. They tasted ok but hard to get passed being cold. Overall we were disappointed with the buffet food. Hopefully we will be back to try the menu.

    Half of my Classic Egg Sandwich and breakfast potatoes. Yum!
    Arneja R.

    Eggs n Cheese Sandwich and hash browns very tasty. Small staff long wait. But excellent customer service. That one guy was the cashier the hostess and the takeout order guy.

Loved the dark atmosphere and romantic vibes- we only wished we had known about the Friday/Saturday night performances that are offered, so we could've planned better (maybe next time). My hubby ordered the dessert sampler... truthfully, only really would order the cheesecake and chocolate cake- the other two samples were odd tasting (but every palate is different)- just would not order it again. I do think a nice gesture of having a free dessert, being it was our anniversary, would've been nice (just a future suggestion). Street parking available and a game bar is next door, if wanting more fun entertainment after dessert!

The afternoon was warm and sunny and we found a cute spot in the shade, facing the water. It was such an inviting place to take in the view and have a drink, while we sorted out our itinerary for Savannah. We were never pressured to hurry up and order or to hurry up and finish so they could turn over our table. It was truly a wonderful experience with a great view. We ordered a beer and a Strawberry Schooner cocktail and later on shared a pasta appetizer. The cocktail was well balanced, not watered down or overly sweet. The pasta dish was definitely freshly made and was satisfying for a quick bite for a mid afternoon snack. Jessica, our server, was attentive but not intrusive which topped off our satisfaction with Top Deck Bar. We could have sat for hours, but wanted to get out and about exploring Savannah. Be sure to add Top Deck Bar to your stop while in the area.

For the tapas, we began with the Uni Toast. The uni was fresh and delicious, and the caviar was excellent. My only criticism is that it's a single piece of toast, so at $16 it felt a bit pricey, even though the quality was outstanding. The tomato salad was another highlight. The tomatoes were fresh and flavorful, and the aioli brought everything together beautifully without overpowering the dish. Our favorite savory dish was the braised cabbage. It arrived as essentially half a cabbage--about the size of a brain--which made it a little awkward to eat. That said, the flavors more than made up for the presentation. The gochujang barbecue sauce was rich and slightly sweet with just the right amount of heat, and the roasted oyster mushrooms complemented the cabbage perfectly. Overall, Sombramesa delivered a fantastic meal with creative, high-quality food and excellent service. While a couple of dishes leaned toward the expensive side for their portion size, the quality of the ingredients and the execution made for a memorable experience. We'd happily return!
