    Crab cake sandwich
    Becca S.

    Boars Head is right on the river, in a good location. You can't miss it, it is just across the street from the trolly stop. I came in for a late lunch and had most of the restaurant to myself. To start off, my waiter, I believe his name was Kevin, was FANTASTIC. 5 stars for him. He was friendly, a bit silly, and made sure I was taken care of. I ordered Chef Philip's Crab Cake sandwich. And it was...disappointing. The crab cake was bland, it was also about a half inch wider than the piece of french bread it was on, and the whole thing just kind of came apart. The remoulade was tasty and added some zip, but you aren't paying $20 for a lettuce tomato and remoulade sandwich. The fries were tasty. It is an old stone building and has a great view of the river. I was told by a local that Boars Head can be hit or miss, but when they hit, it is out of the park. Maybe I just ordered the wrong thing. But if you are going to put your name on a dish, it should be a hit.

    Came here for the first time with my husband on a Saturday night. We had a reservation so I had no problem getting seated pretty quickly. Our server came over within a few minutes and got us started off with some drinks. For our entrée, my husband, and I both did the ribeye and crabcake entrée with a baked potato. I switched out my asparagus for the cheesy grits. The food came out really fast and was absolutely delicious! The cheesy grits were some of the best I've ever had! Highly recommend if you're in the area.

    Second time visiting within two years and still impressed! Wonderful service and such an inviting historic ambiance right on the Savannah River. Enjoyed the bouillabaisse and the shrimp-stuffed crab pasta. So rich in flavor and generous portions. Prices are appropriate for the quality of food you are receiving. My favorite dining experience in Savannah!

    This place is located right on river street. You have to walk up a small little hill to get to the entrance as it's on a second floor. You can make reservations but it wasn't necessary on our visit. There were plenty of tables available and we were seated immediately. We started with the hummus (6 out 10) and she crab soup. (8 out 10). Hummus had a weird tomato glaze, peppers and jelly on top? Not our thing. I would ask for that to be removed or on the side next time. Toasted bread had butter on it. A little greasy but tasty. The crab soup was probably some of the best soup I've ever had. I dream about going back and getting more! I thought it would be too rich and creamy but it was actually more like a stew. So flavorful. Entrees we got the shrimp and grits (9/10) and the blackened fish sandwich (8/10). The catch of the day was swordfish and that was served in the blackened fish as the fish option. The fish sandwich could use a better bun, it's a little dry. Shrimp and grits were incredible and had pieces of sausage in there too. Highly recommend. Staff was friendly prices were reasonable. We would come again

    Went here for my birthday it was amazing the drinks were great the service was wonderful and the food was even better most places on River st I avoid not here just can't say enough positive about this place

    Really good old fashioned

    We ate here several years ago so decided to stop in and grab a bite this trip. Drinks were really good, oysters were great and both entrees were really good but could have used a little more seasoning. Enjoyed our visit, wait staff were really good and friendly.

    The food I would say was hit or miss. My family had the Boar's Head Burger which they all liked very much. The Chicken Picatta was yummy according to my mom. The service was really nice and attentive. It is a very quiet restaurant which is nice compared to all the loud pubs around. Overall it's a nice restaurant to go to but nothing out of this world.

    Grilled Salmon Filet, perfect
    Alice J.

    First time visiting and the location was perfect, the style was spot on. I love the basement feel. Our sever explained all the highlights and what was out and what in. The food itself was very tasteful, I really cleaned my plate. The only thing that was a deterrent was the water glass that had lipstick stains all around the glass, we didn't notice it until after our meal ,getting ready to drink from it. But I will definitely try this place again.

    Chicken Caesar Salad
    Christine G.

    After spending a day exploring Savannah, we decided to try the local Boar's Head Grill overlooking the riverfront. It is a cozy tavern with window seating so we had a view of the water. Our server was Sharon, and she was very pleasant and welcoming. It was a very hot day in downtown Savannah so we were happy to take a seat and settle in here. We started off with an Oysters Rockefeller appetizer. Cheesy and Delicious. For entrees, we tried the black eyed peas burger, stuffed shrimp (2 of us ordered that: so good!) and a Chicken Caesar salad. Food here was carefully prepared and really tasty. I loved the shrimp stuffed with crabmeat. It was very filling! The black eye pea burger was yummy and looked great. The chicken Caesar salad was enormous and very delicious too. Loved the ambiance here as well. Boar's Head is located in a charming, old building, but the food is classy and nicely prepared! If you are in Savannah, stop in to the Boar's Head Grill and Tavern. Ask for a table by the window for a beautiful view!

    The Vinyl Room does differ t pop ups around the year, our first time had Alice in Wonderland as a…read moretheme. The drinks were delicious, and spot on with references. There are several drink options with your choice of spirit. The mixologist was lovely! She was super attentive and patient (i knew what I wanted, but was indecisive with all the choices). The prices are normal for downtown Savannah, but love that there's the decor and fun drink options that make it feel worth it. Last call is earlier than some other places, so be mindful of that. Unsure what it will turn into at the end of July, but either way, give this spot a try!

    Last Call in the Library: Vinyl Room Pop-Up (Running until Nov. 16th)…read more Step into a world of mystery and mixology with Last Call in the Library, a limited-time pop-up at Vinyl Room at The Drayton Hotel. Inspired by Clue, this immersive cocktail experience combines playful themes with seriously good drinks. Perfect for a night of intrigue and indulgence. Drinks: The Colonel - Bold and spirit-forward, with just enough spice to keep you guessing. Of course it's served in a mustard jar and accompanied with some bar pretzels for snacking! The Conservatory - Bright, herbaceous, and garden-fresh in flavor. Mrs. White Meets Mr. Black - Smooth, dark, and balanced with a clever twist. This take on an espresso martini with mascarpone vanilla foam was on nearly every table! Professor Plum's Prescription - A rich, layered cocktail that feels like a remedy in a glass... or should I say, bottle! A burglary almost took place but I refrained from taking it home with me. No food menu to review here. This one's all about the cocktails and the ambiance. However, you can always grab a delicious bite to eat from St. Neo's Brasserie and enjoy their beautiful dinning space. From the themed décor to the playful drink names, Last Call in the Library is more than just a pop-up; it's an immersive mystery experience. Book The Clue Experience through EventBrite to try your hand at solving the case and find clues throughout the hotel property! Don't miss your chance to play along before the doors close on Nov. 16th.
