    Traveling home after a Florida weekend we got off the craziness that can be I-95 and happened upon…read moreSally May's while driving the back roads. It's a small and super clean. You order at the counter and they bring it to your table. The gals working at the counter were very friendly. My daughter ordered a catfish po-boy and I got a dinner portion of their Lo Country boil. I should have had the lunch portion as I ended up taking half of it home. The lo country boil was the classic shrimp, sausage, red potatoes and corn. It was perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of kick. The cocktail sauce served with it had a perfect amount of horseradish. We also shared an order of "firecracker" shrimp. So tasty. My daughter reports her sandwich was tasty if a bit bready. The portion of catfish on the sandwich was plentiful. Sally Mae's is just off the interstate and worth seeking out if you are in the area.

    Mediocre at best. I was excited to try this place because of the good reviews. First of all, the…read morefood came out and it was cold, so not a great start. Not even warm but cold. The mac and cheese was fine but not great, the brunswick stew was watery, and the banana pudding was super liquidy and tasted like sunscreen (my husband said soap lol). It was also mostly whipped cream somehow. The hickory bbq sauce was great, the hush puppies were fine with the cinnamon butter, and the cornbread was really good. The portions are also TINY for the price. Staff was nice but we will not be back.

    Amazing! We are from a place where you can't get fresh seafood so this place hit the spot! When we…read morearrived the place was busy but they had a lot of seating both inside and outside. We opted to sit outside because the weather couldn't have been better. We had a view of a canal where we were able to see some dolphins swimming around which was fun to see. To start our meal we ordered a bucket of steamed oysters (we had to shuck them but it wasn't to hard) For our main course we decided on a Half and Half Seafood Boil and a Snow Grab plate was the perfect amount for us to share. We did order a couple of the local beers they had in stock and they all were very good.

Everything was fresh, seasoned perfectly, and exactly what you hope for when you're craving a seafood boil. The beer was ice cold, which made it even better. The setting is what really makes this place special. You're eating right on the water, the picnic tables have built-in trash cans for all the shells, and the whole place has a laid-back, old-school coastal vibe that's hard to find anymore. After we finished eating, we fed the alligators, which was such a fun way to end the meal. This is one of those places you remember long after your trip. We'll be coming back every time we're in the Savannah/Tybee area.

    Well worth the walk and the price. The salmon tonight, which I had on an amazing caesar salad, is…read morethe best I have ever had. Skin on and pan fried to crispy perfection- any and all complements to the chef. In addition to the delicious food, the ambiance was relaxing yet classy. 10/10 would recommend and will be back!

    I have been here a number of times, both as solely a patron and also as a guest of the hotel…read moreimmediately above the restaurant. I've been with big groups and sat by myself. Been here for both dinner and lunch. All this said, I think my approach to this review is comprehensive. With regard to food, I think they have a decent (not expansive) selection of food, which I think lends itself to quality. They do most things really well. This said, I do think there is inconsistency based on staff at the restaurant. On one occasion they have accommodated a request, and on another I was denied the exact same request. I found this frustrating. On one occasion I've also seen management talk down to staff here, which is a big no no for me. All people (especially staff) are due respect and this rubbed me the wrong way. This was an isolated incident but it definitely made my dining experience uncomfortable. Especially because I was getting excellent service from the server!!! I've always had quality service from servers here. In the future, I would come to Rhett for convenience as a hotel guest (the hotel is lovely), but would likely not spend my money if I wasn't staying at the hotel. Overall- it's good food, decent ambiance... but there are soooo many good options in Savannah. You have to be exceptional to stand out in that city.

    Had an amazing meal! Wish I was still in Savannah this weekend so I could enjoy the all you can eat…read moreseafood boil. I had it for dinner last night and it was fantastic! Spicy and so good. Mom enjoyed her po boy. Said it was very good. My daughters LOVED the Mac n cheese and really it was delicious. I may have stolen a couple bites. We also enjoyed a couple tiki drinks during happy hour. Strong and good. The service was good overall. And it's a nice looking restaurant. I did not like that for a family of four they wanted us at high tops. By my little one was asleep for a bit and then just sat on our laps. As a short person I hate high tops.

    We had an excellent experience until we encountered the management…read more We visited Savannah for the first time and eat out frequently while traveling. Our Uber driver highly recommended Sorry Charlie's, so we decided to give it a try. Our first visit was genuinely pleasant, which is why we came back. However, our second visit was ruined by an encounter with the manager. This person was extremely rude and dismissive--I'm genuinely shocked she works in the service industry. We arrived for dinner and were told there would be a 10-20 minute wait, which we agreed to. After approximately 20 minutes, the manager stormed across the restaurant and yelled at us as if we were children, demanding we not stand by the hostess stand. We had never been instructed to wait elsewhere. My wife reacted as anyone would have and expressed her frustration. The manager then escalated the situation, exchanged words with us, and ultimately kicked us out while threatening to call the police. Hoping to resolve things professionally, I returned the next morning to have a mature conversation about the incident. The manager's response was condescending: "You guys are brave coming back in here." This unprofessional comment from management spoke volumes. The food quality is excellent and the staff is great, but this manager is a significant problem. She is unsuited for customer service and needs to find work elsewhere.

    Great service. ! Kind a quirky but cool place…read more My wife ordered the flounder and crab and I had shrimp and grits. Crab dip appetizer. Appetizer was great. - really nice The only reason for 4 out of 5- very little / non- existent crab with slightly too fish my flounder. Also the shrimp and grits while good had overcooked red peppers and uncooked onions.

    I'm going to start off by saying that I am visiting Savannah, Georgia for the first time and within…read morea day of my travels, this place was recommended to me twice. At this point, I didn't know if this place was actually that good or if it was a tourist trap. Initially called the restaurant to see if I needed to make reservation orders or if I can walk in, was told that they typically take reservations, but if I were to walk in now, I would be able to get seated. Decided to take our chances and dine in by walking in. There were plenty of seats. Hosts greeted us, but we're not very friendly. Got seated immediately. The table we were at, maybe I was sensitive, but the light that dangles from the ceiling onto the table was not low enough and aligned with our eyes. Uncomfortable honestly. Our server was very quick, you can tell she wasn't trying to work that day. Cornbread was complementary, wasn't very tasty to be honest. Extremely dry, even the jam was helpful. I opted for the New York steak with fries, nothing wow. My boyfriend got the award-winning house fried chicken with pecan sauce on the side. It was pretty good fried chicken, but not something to always come back to. Honestly, we were very disappointed because this place was very overhyped. I'm glad I tried it, but it's not something that I would recommend because it was mediocre.
