    Mushroom bisque. Blah, needed salt.
    Doug E.

    I wanted to like this better, but I feel like the food was sort of hit or miss. I had a mushroom bisque that was kind of tasteless. I also had the duck dish, which is highly recommended, but I didn't like it at all, and I usually love duck. My friend had this trout special that was amazing. And then we shared a limoncello cake that was also amazing, so maybe it has to do with which dishes one orders. I don't know. The people were very friendly, but it seemed like they were trying to get us in and out as quickly as possible. Oh, also we had glasses of a delicious Chardonnay from South Africa. So I don't know whether I can recommend it or not. Given the prices, I feel like it should have been more consistently good.

    For dinner, I finally made it to Noble Fare, and wow... what a charming fine‑dining gem tucked away in Savannah's Historic District! This intimate restaurant, with only about 38 seats on the main floor, is beautifully designed with a cozy black‑and‑white interior, fuchsia drapes, and sparkling chandeliers--perfect for date nights or special celebrations. I started with the Limoncello Spritz, which was the perfect drink! My date ordered the Southern Smash, and it was just as delicious. For starters, we both had the wedge salad, and don't even get me started on their house bread... I was this close to canceling my main dish and just eating the bread--it's that good! But I'm so glad I didn't because my 1/2 Lobster Thermidor was absolutely mouthwatering. My date's rainbow trout was equally amazing. Everything about this restaurant was perfect, and I can't believe it took me this long to try it! I'm already dreaming about going back.

    Coffee Rubbed Pork Tenderloin

    Noble Fare delivered on every detail. Atmosphere was welcoming and intimate. Staff was friendly and not overbearing. We were chatting when we first sat and they just let us catch up with family before ordering with no rush. We started with 1/2 lobster thermidore appetizer and it was delicious. Our entrees were the coffee rubbed pork tenderloin and NY striptease. They both had flavorful complimentary sides and were cooked to perfection. The candied glazed bacon grilled with the steak was a tasty addition. Noble fare offers a variety of signature cocktails nicely prepared. Portions were plentiful but we still had to finish with the crème brûlée and it was as creamy as expected. Don't skip over this quaint little corner in Savannah. It was an unforgettable experience and I'm quite sure we'll return.

    Great meal and experience from entering through meals end. The staff was very friendly, helpful and attentive. Tried the tuna ceviche (wonderful!), beef carpaccio (very very good but not the largest portion), the mushroom soup (excellent) and the baby wedge salad (top notch). The special ribeye was massive and delicious, the duck was different than I've ever had and very tasty, diver scallops that were out of this world and an excellent salmon. We winged it with them for the martinis and got a creative and delicious fruit (was it dragonfruit?) martini. Highly recommend Noble Fare on all fronts.

    Crème brûlée and coffee
    Andy V.

    Loved the ambience here - a small dining room with an intimate bar. The wait staff was excellent, constantly refilling drinks and replacing silverware and folding napkins. Towards the end of the evening we informed our waiter that we all wanted to split up one of the party member's checks because it was his bachelor party weekend. The waiter said he could easily do that and he went as far as to give us a round of some limoncello/lemondrop shots that were sweet and sour and really meant a lot to the group. The food was absolutely delicious. I love a smaller, focused menu where the chef can really shine. I had one of the specials (all of which sounded amazing). The veal chop was seared perfectly, great crust, really good seasoning with a savory, slightly sweet au jus, and a perfect medium rare cook through the middle. The whipped potatoes and French green beans were good but I wish I had more in comparison to the large chop. The mushroom bisque starter was fine but I think there could be a little more flavor. The desserts were excellent as well. I had the crème brûlée which was one of the best I've ever had. The coffee was a great end to the night, and I loved the presentation of the waiter pushing the plunger on the French press, showing how freshly made it was. The one thing that our entire party was pretty consistent on was that the drinks were a little lacking. They were reasonably priced, $12-$13 cocktails, but they left a little to be desired. Overall, cannot recommend this place enough! Listen to your waiter and lean into the specials.

    Absolutely a gem! Wonderful food and service- just delicious. Can't recommend highly enough.

    Have upgraded my review from a 4 to a 5. They truly shown last night at their valentines dinner. If you're looking for a date location in Savannah this is the one to go too. The dining is intimate, the decor is pleasant to the eye, and the music is low enough for conversation but not so low that you're involved in your neighbors conversations. We had Jasmine as our server and she was excellent. She had a great demeanor and was very helpful with the entire meal, never rushing us and truly allows the prix fixe menu schedule to just flow. The menu was a very good representation of their chefs abilities and the filet Mignon was some of the best I've had in a while. If you want a nice romantic spot to dine, this is the one.

    Our experience at Noble Fare was delightful. The service was spot on,not too fast or too slow. Jodi was courteous and attentive. The food was fabulous. We chose the chef's tasting menu and were not disappointed! Will definitely return when we visit Savannah again.

    Interior upstairs

    Noble Fare is a restaurant that continues to impress me. The owners are a local husband and wife duo. It has wonderful food, drinks, staff, and atmosphere. It is located on Jefferson street. The Liberty Street parking garage is in front of it. This is convenient for parking if you would like. But of course you can park on the street too. The restaurant is in a lovely two story home. There is seating upstairs, downstairs, and a few seats outside as well. Bathrooms are on each floor. Upon entering you are greeted with the host/hostess area so you will not need to wonder where to go. The tables are set with classic white linens and silverware. There are small fresh flowers on the tables for a delicate touch. The colors of the restaurant are black and white with fuchsia accents. You will see those colors throughout the entire space. I highly recommend a reservation. It is easy to book on their website. You will be required to give a card to hold your table. Do not worry, you will not be charged for this. It is to make sure you show up or cancel your reservation within the time allotted. I also recommend sitting upstairs. It has more space and is quieter. You feel less like you are in a crowded restaurant upstairs. But fair warning it is a tall staircase. And there is no elevator. You will have to walk up and back down the steps on your own. The staff is knowledgeable about the menu. If you have questions or want to know about a pairing ask your server. They will most likely will have a good suggestion for you. The food is excellent! The menu changes seasonally. But there are a few items on the menu that are classics that you will always find. We started the evening with a cocktail each. I got the Southern Mule. It is a play on the Moscow Mule, it has bourbon and blood orange in it. My husband had the Smoke & Mirrors. I am not a fan of mezcal so I did not taste his. The drink was lovely to look at though. And he very much enjoyed it. I love their soup(bisque). The evening we dined it was a wild mushroom, with a large well seasoned crouton, truffle oil, and fresh parsley. It was creamy and delicious. For my second course I had the ahi tuna tartar. It had a pineapple relish and curry oil. The dish was in a word yum! I had a scoop of the evening's risotto which was spinach. And I felt like a classic so I had crème brûlée for dessert. It was perfection. My husband enjoyed his baby wedge salad. It was another classic done extremely well. His main was the duck duck no goose. It is comprised of pan seared duck, duck jus risotto, wilted spinach, and a star anise syrup. It was a beautiful plate of food. And he enjoyed eating every bit of it. If you are looking for a date night or romantic restaurant Noble Fare fits the bill! Or if you want a fantastic meal with wonderful service give it a try. We enjoyed our experience with them.

The restaurant was absolutely packed, and it was clear when I ordered the Oysters Rockefeller and asked if the jalapeños could be left off (their version has bacon, cheese, shrimp, kale and jalapeños) it was a "premix". Makes sense for efficiency, but anyone with a dietary or allergy restriction wouldn't have that option. Presentation also had a lack of personal touch. A friend and I each ordered a half dozen oysters, and instead of serving them separately, both orders arrived together on one large platter, but he was seated several people down the table, so we ended up placing the tray in the middle and reaching across. When I asked for another plate to separate them, there seemed to be some confusion and I was simply given an extra small plate instead. Everything was just "okay". One friend ordered the shrimp and grits and really enjoyed it, and the drinks arrived quickly and service was fast in general. Unfortunately, the low point was a friend ordered a half dozen raw oysters, but they didn't arrive until the rest of us had completely finished our meals and were asking for the check. Thankfully he had also ordered a po' boy sandwich, because otherwise he would have been sitting there hungry. To make matters worse, the oysters that finally arrived didn't taste especially fresh, and at $22 for a half dozen, they were hard to justify. Our server was friendly, but throughout the meal she had to be reminded of several items we'd ordered, almost as if we were placing the order a second time. On a positive note, the rooftop bar upstairs was a nice surprise and probably ended up being my favorite part of the visit. Overall, it felt like a restaurant designed for volume and convenience in a tourist-heavy area. Plenty of people seem to enjoy it, and I can see why it's popular. Our experience didn't live up to the hype. If I'm looking for seafood in Savannah, I'll probably explore other options next time. Glad they have covers for the patio when it rains.

The brunch menu is fairly…read moreextensive, so we had some difficulty choosing what to order....but definitely come hungry because the portions are large and the food is pretty rich. To share amongst the table, we ordered the cinnamon toast banane and crispy gouda grit croquettes. Thumbs up on both, particularly the croquettes which were the right balance of gooey and structured enough to eat with the delicious sauce on the side. The cinnamon toast banane was not so much toast as cinnamon rolls with bananas foster; the cinnamon rolls were really tasty and the bananas foster was good, though the bourbon flavor was strong. For my entree, I ordered one of the lighter vegetarian dishes - the mushroom tartine with tomato soup. I think it is one of the lighter dishes - certainly lighter than what my dining companions ordered - but it was still quite rich with a fair amount of gouda fondue in the tomato bisque soup. The mushroom tartine/sandwich was really flavorful with the pesto, cheese and tons of mushrooms. The restaurant is quite large with an upstairs seating area.

I would understand if this was a fine dining upscale restaurant that was quiet but the ambiance was very ordinary. There was regular restaurant noise and people dressed casually. If you are going to advertise your establishment as "good for kids" please consider the way you are talking to families who want to dine here.

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.
