After having done much research via Yelp on Savannah restaurants of note [planned trip to the city] we settled on Noble Fare. I can definitely validate the 'family feeling' between the front and back of the house that so many have referenced, but the enthusiasm I saw in other reviews over the culinary work escapes me. Prices for the dishes are not posted online, so have a hefty available reserve on your card before you sit down. I understand the need for a menu of easily repeated recipes, so the fact that there is only one 'dish of the day' didn't surprise me. This was a special dinner for our daughter and son-in-law who wouldn't have selected this for a destination. None-the-less, our meals were well represented on the menu and by our server, and reasonably proportioned. The duck breast was a bit tough. The lamb shanks--so often lauded--were true to the dish. Full flavored and succulent through slow and low cooking, they represented all of the promise of the dish which I'd had many times, but I was disappointed that there wasn't a "Noble Fare" take on the dish. It was like a new jazz singer's routine performance of the song 'Sentimental Journey' without making it their own. Satisfying but not distinctive. Own the presentation. Make it distinctive! Value is OK, and service quite respectable. Wine list could use some 'hidden gems' but worth considering for a repeat visit next time we are there. read more

Let me start off my review by saying that I'm NOT a food snob; I've worked in tablecloth restaurants, on the front-end and in the kitchen. I've eaten at very expensive restaurants that serve lousy food, and inexpensive ones that pulled off great meals. I know good food and good service, and can appreciate the fact that others might have had a good dining experience at this quaint place. That being said, the waitstaff was excellent. Unfortunately, the food didn't pass muster. It's one thing to have to send back one plate that wasn't good, but when you feel like you have to finish a second attempt at an entree because you feel some sort of obligation, then it's likely that you're going to not recommend that restaurant. Most of the reviews of this restaurant are pretty old. I think if more people were verbose on Yelp! about their meals, the owner could make some adjustments/corrections to the quality of the food being served. What started out as a promising and much-anticipated visit to this well-reviewed restaurant ended up being an overpriced and poorly executed culinary attempt at fine dining. I read the reviews of prior visitors, and that was what prompted a visit this evening. As I stepped inside, it smelled like the belly of a fishing boat. Very overpowering scent of seafood, that lingered until you got acclimated to the smell. It was dark inside, and the lights flickered at times. It is a cozy restaurant (read:small) with ample room to seat 4 to a table comfortably. The menu was simple, and offered a few choices of entrees and appetizers. The first item brought out was a small piece of salmon, on top of a crustini. It was ok. The clam chowder was tasty, and had croutons incorporated that gave it almost a potato-like crunch. Very rich, and not overpowering. You could definitely tell when you got a piece of clam; it was cooked right, and was very flavorful. I like the fact that they heat the plates prior to serving the food so it stays hot while you finish it. The soup was hot up 'til the last spoonful. So far, so good! The server brought out a little spoon, and I didn't know what to expect. I was then surprised with a spoonful of citrus sorbet. It was very tangy, and tasted great. Just enough to make you want more. I decided to try their signature dish, "Duck Duck - No Goose. Presentation was clustered together, with a good color of the duck. I'm not sure if the menu has changed, but there was no foie gras stuffed into the meat. The risotto was flavorful, the spinach was green and lacked flavor, but when you pay that much for a plate, the meat better taste good. It was dry, and bland. It didn't taste good at all. I normally don't do this, but I sent the plate back, and asked for another entree. The Meat and Potatoes was up for the next attempt. Presentation was better, the cut of beef, I don't recall. Beef was on top of fresh asparagus, which was plated on whipped potatoes. The potatoes were decent, but the plate was sub-par. Perhaps it was due to the blackening of the steak; it was so overpowering that it ruined the taste of the entire plate. I have a gas grill at home which has two settings: "OFF" & "HELL". I think the chef has one of these as well, and used it to cook the steak. In retrospect, I wish I would have gone to the store and bought some good cuts of meat, and cooked them myself. I defintely would have saved a LOT of money, and had better food. I'll count this as a lesson learned; not every restaurant that has high price for entrees makes for quality dining. read more

Called 4 times with no answer. Was tight next to our hotel. Restaurant was not full when we got there but would not give us a table. Girl at front had an attitude and was extremely rude read more

Please take your time to review all the 1 and 2 stars here and on TripAdvisor because I, like the others, just fail to see how this place can get so many 4 and 5 star reviews. The alarm bells went off for me when the waitress said. "All the steaks are wet-aged because that's what he prefers and he can get a nice char on them." Translation: We pay a lot less for our beef and it's hidden by the fact that we burn it so you cant tell the difference anyway. My steak came out completely over-cooked. I sent it back, the next one came our still mooing. Sent that back and, again, asked for medium-rare. They took that one, burnt the outside even more (think a piece of coal by now) but it was still cold red in the middle. At that point I gave up. Nothing about this place is up to the hype or marketing they put out there. The red wine was way too warm, the fish over-cooked as well, the soup was ok, and the bread tasted of nothing. They tried to dress up the bread by offering some butter, cheap olive oil and balsamic, and some pecan paste stuff that, again, tasted of nothing and you just ask yourself, "why do they even bother"? They refused to comp the other dinner despite that having been kept back under a heat lamp (thus overcooking it even more) and me not actually having a main course. They did agree, reluctantly, to not charge for the steak given that, in their opinion, I don't know what a medium-rare steak is and I sent it back 3x. There are so many good places in Savannah, this isn't one of them. read more

Fantastic food great service and ambiance my wife loved it. I would highly recommend it.

What a nice experience. Enjoyed our dinner immensely. Lots of positive things to say and only one negative. So listen up: Attentive service/wait staff: check! Reservation ease: check! Decor: check! Cocktails: check...full bar: double check!! (My manhattan was sublime...) Wine selection: nice! Romantic: yes (even though I brought my mother-in-law) Mood: check! Great music which is so rare these days. No Muzak. No top 40. No twangy country (ugh)...Miles Davis...Chet Baker....low ...just the right volume. So nice. Some places just don't know how important music can be to set a mood. Noble Fare gets It right. The negative: the cheese plate. I know. I know. I am being too picky here...but a cheese plate for $20 should be, well, a gd cheese plate. We got actual crumbs on ours. The Irish cheddar (which was delightfully sharp) was served in crumbs. I am not kidding; two shards and then crumbs underneath. The goat cheese was like the tiniest amount of goat cheese...perhaps half a teaspoon...and the manchego was also poorly represented. Blue cheese...what blue cheese? Just give me a presentation that I feel is worth my money. Raise It $5 and then put the darn cheese on the plate. That's it. The only negative. The scallops were delish. Filet mignon: awesome. Plenty of home made bread and Parker rolls. I will go back, but will likely steer away from the very sad cheese plate. read more

My bar tender from andaz hotel turned me on to this place. I'm very happy he did. Not to many people know about this place. It's not mentioned in the tourism seen and that is one of the big reasons I wanted to go. The places the locals recommend are usually the best. The food was excellent. The place was super cute and the service was superb. I have nothing bad to say about this place. read more

We tried this quaint place during the busy Restaurant Week. There's seating for 38 people. Service was good and the food was excellent. The salmon over crab and corn risotto was fantastic. There is a private dining room/event space with a small bar upstairs that seats 38 as well . read more

Food was so so good! Best we had in Savannah. We had fish and filet mignon, both were amazing. The tuna carpaccio was too. And the panna cotta. It was a nice ambiance, the only down side was the AC was not very good (they mentioned they're was a Freon leak) and it was hot, but they had fans going so it wasn't unbearable. The AC was the only thing that kept us from going back again the next day. Staff was awesome! read more

This is one of my favorite places in savannah; I have only one complaint which I will get to in a bit. The restaurant is a little small, but for me, I enjoyed the limited space it offered as it felt cozy and exclusive. The decorations were adorable, something of a mix between Paris and the south; cute chandeliers and curtains, and there were matching flowers placed at the table. I really enjoyed this, having dined in every major city in the us, this was unique. We had the cheese plate for an appetizer which consisted of imported cheeses from around the world (awesome!) they also brought out breads with a pecan basil spread and a paprika and aged balsamic dip which was amazing. Our server also offered us specialty cocktails; I had a mint lemonade (9/10). We waited way too long for our food, and the place wasn't even crowded. This bummed me out as there were only 3 other tables in the place, we weren't even given an estimate on how much longer the food would take. Additionally, the menu was a little too small for my taste. This is the only reason why I can't commit to the 5 stars, but better 5 than 4 (so is say 4.5, but what the h, let's give them the benefit of the doubt. ) Overall, I thought my food (catch of the day) was well prepared and presented. We enjoyed the atmosphere and food greatly, although I wish it didn't take so long to reach us and the server was a little better at communicating what was going on (honestly for a moment I thought she may have forgotten about us completely). read more

Noble Fare - So cute - New American Near Me - Savannah, Georgia

Ah Noble Fare... I hate to say it, but you're the very reason I signed up to Yelp. I use the app for reviews and I never say anything but I had to. First of all, let me say our waitress was amazing. Let that be known, I can't remember her name but she was a delight. Very knowledgable and obliging and professional with great interpersonal skills. So we arrive at the quaint French corner restaurant, with high hopes. The stairs lead to private-esque dining rooms, oddly passing the open kitchen on the way up, which is for some reason, a little off putting. Was this building previously a brothel? Or is it used for porn films after hours? Once you get passed the ghastly decorating, prepare for your amazing waitress to wow you. I have a feeling this is the kind of place that people think is good, because of the whole food art thing. The presentation is given a lot more thought than actual taste of the food and I am under the impression that it is that, that allows people to over see the lack of fresh ingredients and basic quality of taste. It tries to be fancy and to some, perhaps that overwhelms them. I had a romain salad with prosciutto which was essentially half a lettuce and some ham and balsamic vinegar excitedly whipped over it. Meh. My husband ordered tuna tartar and it came out cold and mixed with a mango concoction, which was bland and tasteless but it did have cute little swirls of sauce around, so that's gotta count for something right? Between entree and main, we were given a stale cracker with cream cheese and salmon on it that had been prepped and then refrigerated all day, so it lacked fresh flavour. My mother in law had the duck every one has raved about, which was just duck dressed up. It was incredibly underwhelming. I had the filet special, and it wasn't bad. It wasn't great. And that's all I can say about that. read more

Had visited here 3-4 years ago when in town for a convention and have told countless people about the amazing, wonderful food and service we received and how welcome we felt by the owners. The grouper I had the last time I was there was probably the best I've had in my life. This visit last Saturday was a little different. Felt like something was a little "off" with service but couldn't put my finger on it. The food was excellent, sadly no Grouper, but still very good. Wild mushroom soup was delicious. There just seemed to be a lack of energy by the staff and I'm wondering if it was an off night for the owners or maybe a post holiday blues. At any rate, will give it another spin next trip but I truly hope that Noble Fare hasn't devolved from a special place to just another restaurant. read more

I had researched Savannah restaurants ahead of my visit, and when I walked in to see if I could squeeze in for a dinner-for-one, I was told that "there is a Mellow Mushroom around the corner." Can't rate the food bec I didn't get to try it, but the arrogance was ON POINT. read more

We ate here for the first time last night, but it definitely won't be the last time. The food was great, and our server Rochelle was excellent. The food portion sizes are very good. Not too much so that food goes to waste. The Citron Bubble drink is inventive and delicious. Our daughter goes to SCAD, so we have tried many restaurants the last 3 years, and Noble Fare is the best. read more

Ate here for dinner on Saturday, 1/14/17. I was really looking forward to eating here after living in Savannah nearly 10 years, trying all other fine dining establishments, and never having tried it. I made reservations for 10, and as this was a special 30th birthday dinner, I looked forward to a great experience. Things started off fine with the first courses, but several people ordered a steak, which had been touted by the waitress as award winning - and 3 out of 5 steaks were egregiously overcooked. I believe the waitress heard the people in our party as they cut into their steaks - medium rare was what was ordered, and the meat was barely pink and was actually cooked to a brown gray in some bites. She ignored their statements. After she came back a second time, we asked her to show them to the chef. She was not very apologetic. We did not have time to wait for them to be recooked and sent out again, so some people just shared other people's food and one person ate most of it simply because the food had taken a while and we were all hungry. The two steaks that were half eaten did get comped, but the person who ate most of their steak, the waitress rudely stated, "Well, since you ate yours it will not be comped." I have never before in my life experienced this. When you spend $40 on a steak, it had better be cooked perfectly, and usually someone will come out within your first bite to ask - how is your steak cooked? This never occurred, and again, when we did complain, the bare minimum was done to resolve this. We did not stay for dessert, even though it was a birthday and I had planned to, we didn't really want to spend any more money there and be treated poorly. Would not recommend, which is their loss because I am a person who does spend money on a good meal and dines out frequently in Savannah. Unless something was done to resolve this, would not eat there again, and would definitely let friends know that we had a poor experience there. read more

Outstanding food and service! Chef owned and operated with his wife. My wife and I had a wonderful evening out with our son who was in town. Not to missed! Very hands on chef that prepares ever meal to perfection. We will definitely be back read more

This sweet place charmed us. Mom ordered a filet mignon and I had the scallops. Her filet was amazing - so tender and delicious. My scallops were perfect. Only seared on one side, which mom doesn't prefer but I liked. The wine list is impressive and reasonable. I highly recommend this restaurant for dinner. read more

Excellent experience! Mushroom Bisque was amazing! Scallops were perfect! I had the lavender bubble drink- super cool and delicious! Husband had the coffee rubbed pork tenderloin and Charred Caesar- also amazing! We had a great time! read more

Lovely company, lovely place, lovely food! I bit tight. The server was not as put together and knowledgeable as the place presents. The food was truly lovely, nice clean flavors throughout! I'd definitely go back! read more

Everyone knows that Savannah has great restaurants and we love trying a different spot every time we are here. Last night we celebrated our anniversary at Nobel Fare and I can honestly say it was the best experience we have ever had in Savannah!! It is a small intimate place which is perfect for a romantic dinner! We did the Chef's Tasting Menu with wine pairing and everything was delicious! Just a note that you need to reserve this in advance and you will not be disappointed. The service was excellent! We did not have to ask for anything. Samir did a great job with the wine pairings and we each had a cocktail that was not only amazing but the presentation should be on the cover of a magazine. Everything from the appetizer to the dessert were perfect! The combination of flavors and presentation created by the owner/chef made for the perfect dinner!! read more

On our most recent trip to Savannah to visit my Partners parents we were invited to Noble Fare. Good news first? The food was awesome and beautifully plated. The beef carpaccio appetizer came out quickly but lovingly prepared with the beef delicate, translucent and tasty. The salads we all ordered were crisp, fresh, and perfectly dressed. My duck breast over sweet potato mash was red in the center yet had that crispy skin one associates with well prepared duck. The scallops were nicely browned with soft juicy centers, which was wonderful to enjoy as scallops are far too often over-cooked. We are not dessert people but the cheesecake and creme brule were as one expects with fine dining; excellent. Not served straight from a cooler, the creme brute had a solid crust and succulent custard at its center. The Carmel cheesecake, made in house, was rich with Carmel flavor and as smooth as cream. French pressed coffee made table side and served with real cream was awesome. Sadly, our server, who did not deign to introduce himself, was haughty to the point of rudeness. For example, without asking he removed the plates of our hosts while my partner and I were not close to finishing. I honestly thought he was trying to provoke us to the point of confrontation. Perhaps if service is beneath him he might pursue an ambassadorship to Luxembourg? Next King of France? Truly awful. His deportment detracted from the meal, which is unfortunate. It was a Tuesday night, we dined right at opening, maybe that was the problem? read more

Great anniversary dining experience. Service and food were fantastic. Salmon and scallops were crispy on the outside and tender inside. Cozy and romantic Great job! read more

My brother, the super duper Russell P., set us up with some great meals in Savannah. In my opinion, this one topped the mark. When you walk in, you realize that this place is hip, trendy and stylish. It's sheik decor of hot pink and black makes you feel like you are in a more modern Victorian home. The restaurant is very tiny, seating possibly 14-16 tables. Due to the fact that the people at our table before us stuck around for a while, we were thirty minutes late being seated. That was little bit of a downer for such a nice place. But, I got over it because the drinks and company were all great. I knew immediately when I saw it that I wanted the Duck Duck Duck Goose. It was Duck breast cooked medium with foie gras, duck confit and gooseberry demi glace. Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, it was spectacular. They were a little skimpy on the foie but it was all so rich, it did not really matter in the end. My husband had what they (Georgian's) call a bone-in rib chop. For you normal people out there (the rest of the country), this is a bone-in ribeye. His was charred medium rare and was one of the best steaks ever. This trip was Memorial Day weekend and he is still talking about that steak...which he demolished. All of the food, from the appetizers to the bday cheesecake for my grandmother were received with high praise. The only strange thing was our waitress. I could not decide if she had no sense of humor or if she was just really dry. In the end, she won us over by providing good service. I would return here in a heartbeat. read more

Note the 5 stars. Not usually a 5 star giver, but this kitchen, this chef, the serving staff, & dining room management is exceptional. It was a rainy Thursday night and my close friend and I decided to stay at the "Mans" on Forsyth Park and have a go at this new place. I am SO glad we did. The menu was beautiful. If a restaurant has a tasting menu I quite nearly always order it, and so glad I did. Despite a debacle with our last tasting menu at Alex in Vegas I persuaded my companion to try once again! How could we go wrong?...only $69 !! The kitchen was also most accommodating of my request to have no red/white meat only fish and veggies. We didn't pair the wine since they had an exceptional and affordable bottle of Amarone on the wine list!! It was 7 courses of pure lusciousness and high quality fare...noble is exact. The menu which changes nightly I think (and is mostly local and organic) was well done. The chef who is so personal and friendly and EXCITED about his restaurant threw us some wonderful house made bread crisps/sticks, goat cheese amuse bouche, perfect seared scallop, firm but tender halibut, fresh heirloom tomatoes, al dente risotto! I'm drawing a blank of the other courses--need to write it down. A final (dessert) course of house made bing cherry ice cream and chocolate cake sealed the deal. The biggest kicker was (my friend and I were the final guests) and I asked to compliment the chef, and what a great guy. He took us all over the restaurant to experience his vision for the future and treated us to ice wine and port. What a great guy. Down to earth lover of food. Top it off with the fact that his wife runs the intimate dining room that feels like your southern rich aunts house!! All the aspects of this place work well. Applauds all around for Noble Fare! I CANNOT wait to go back my next time in Savannah! Ok all praises aside--I have to make one and only complaint. They don't have cappuccino for after dinner. read more

Rarely has a restaurant of any purported fame inspired me to have temporary thoughts about setting up a competing venue to simply outperform them on the basics of restaurant management, great food, and even better service. Not that opening and managing a restaurant is an easy process, but if Noble Fare is the shining example culinary excellence in Savannah, then the clouds would part for the rays of light when my French-style restaurant, in honor of La Tour Rose in Lyon, would open in the vicinity. My experience started with an ably met reservation that put us into a warm and well decorated restaurant of possibly 16 tables. It continued with a missed wine order, a double undercooked meat problem, slow or forgotten service where other tables came and went with expedited service, and dissolved with a manager's apology like an alka-seltzer in Perrier water. While I prefer to overdress in honor of a good restaurant, it takes more than a wee dram of whiskey for me hide my dislike of restaurants that don't honor their own rules of conduct. No cell phones? Smartly dressed for dinner? No baseball hats? Guess what I saw... Looking back at Noble Fare, I may return in the future to see if my impression was misplaced or it was just an off Friday night in hot weather. read more

If you are looking for a small intimate fine dining restaurant in Savannah, look no further. We recently were looking for a nice restaurant to take my mother in law to for her birthday and decided to come here based on other reviews we read. We were not disappointed at all, this place is amazing. The restaurant is pretty small so I would recommend reservations. The decor is elegant, dimly lit and very classy. Once we were seated we were given an amuse bouche and bread which was a nice touch. We ordered dirty martinis as well and they were excellent. We started with a house salad and clam soup. The candied pecans were delicious in the salad. After the apps our server brought us a sorbet which was delicious. For my entrée I ordered the NY Strip with truffle whipped potatoes and it was amazing. Huge portion of steak that was cooked perfectly and the potatoes were sooooo good. My wife ordered the Duck Duck No Goose which was really good as well. I mean how do you not like foie gras stuffed inside of duck breast with risotto and duck jus. The duck was cooked perfectly and I was torn between which dish was better between the duck and steak. My mother in law ordered the scallops and they were very good too, but I'd recommend getting the steak or duck over the scallops. Unfortunately we were all too full for dessert but they looked amazing. The service was top notch and they really focus on the small details that you would expect from a fine dining restaurant. I didn't order coffee, but saw that it is served out of an individual sized french presses which I thought was really cool. Great restaurant for a special occasion! read more

We should have gotten a round of drinks from the dishwasher - we sent back ALL clean plates! Food was CRAZY delicious - my duck entree, my friends salmon, the steak - even the salads were really delicious! Loved the intermezzo surprise too! Our server Stephanie was extremely knowledgeable about wine and menu - made wonderful suggestions and paced our meal perfectly. Exceptional service, be sure to ask for her! A delight! read more

This place got my attention when it beat out Pink House for "best dinner" in Savannah Connect's Best of Savannah. After eating here, I can understand why it won. Let me start by saying everything I ate was superb. They gave me a scallop and pineapple amuse that was unique. I had the sweetbreads as an appetizer, and it was exceptionally well cooked. My entree was duck breast, foie gras, and confit risotto. It was probably the best duck I can remember eating. They also gave me a sample portion of their honey-orange sorbet which was surprisingly wonderful. I finished things off with the key lime creme brulee which was great as well. This was an amazing meal. It's a cozy setting, and the staff is good. Honestly, I can hardly wait to go back to try more stuff. This place is top of the line. It'll cost ya to eat here though. Highly recommend. read more

Fancy Shmancy! But the place was OK. I had the salad with the candied pecans, lil moo and and pesto. It was extremely soggy, which was kind of gross and didnt taste at all good.. Blegh. My entree was the diver scallops with truffled corn relish and this delicious sauce. It was amazing, and I'm not a big scallops fan. The desserts were whatevs nothing different. I tried the lava cake, creme brulee and pannacotta with a hint of orange (those were the only three they were serving). We had a little palate cleanser between appetizer and entree that was perfection at its best. A little raspberry sorbet sphere. Mmmm as small as it was, that was the most memorable part of the whole meal. I do have to say they have BIG portions for it being such a classy upscale resturant. read more

I went here on a Friday night for a very romantic night out. Although the restaurant isn't a secret by any means, it may take some searching as it is a little off the beaten path. The menu was fresh and local. They offer a tasting menu, which I'll definitely be trying next time. I'm not sure why, but they weren't offering it while we were there. That was okay though as everything we ordered was delicious. The experience was intimate, and the owner even came around and talked to each table, helping us select a wine and pairing it with our meals. After dinner, the hostess was nice enough to call a pedi cab for us, completing the night. Although there are so many places to eat in Savannah, I can't wait to come back to Noble Fare. read more

While I live just a couple blocks from this wonderful establishment, I don't make it here very often on purpose. This is not the kind of restaurant you go to on a nightly or weekly basis. Going that often would spoil you. There is not a single item on the menu I would hesitate to order again. However, if you are going for the full experience, do have the tasting menu. The owners/chefs do a wonderful job of sourcing local food and making sure everything is on point. read more

Toured Savannah for a day and was looking for great food and a comfortable place to kick back. A local we met at SCAD recommended Noble Fare and she was spot on. We arrived in a rain storm with two kids in tow and were warmly greeted and ushered in to a nice table. My wife and I loved the menu. Not pretentious and plenty of deliciously described options. The kids were offered several choices to choose from although there is no children's menu. Cocktails for my wife and I were executed with care and settled our nerves from a mid summer thunder storm. Then the food arrived. Duck duck goose was my choice and while they suggest rare I have always like my duck closer to medium. Yum. perfect to the bite filed with flavor from the foie gras. My wife had a hot and delicate fish of the day, black grouper, and loved the deft hand from the kitchen. Kids chowed on steak and were quiet. A bonus. all in all asking a local generally pays off and for us we were thrilled. read more

Not that good. Went a few weeks ago for dinner on a Friday and found a long brown hair in my meal. Overpriced and hastily made dishes. Noble fare? More like Medieval Times. read more

The decor is sort of brothel/gothic. The lighting is low. The atmosphere is intimate and quiet. The server was friendly , attentive and accommodating. The amuse bouche was a thoughtful little bite. The grapefruit palate cleanser was a refreshing treat. The salads were very over dressed. The complimentary breads lacked flavor and freshness. Our entrees were severely in need of seasoning. The entrees were very bland and also were served at room temperature rather than piping hot fresh out of the kitchen. The mashed potatoes were watery and tasteless. We dined at a table of 10 and all of our entrees were served with the same side dishes. Doesn't the chef have enough creativity to customize the vegetables served with each protein? The desserts were small and ho hum. The French press coffee was too weak. read more

My husband and were looking to get out for a date the night before Thanksgiving. We selected Noble Fare bc we were looking for some smaller portion tastings as opposed to a huge entree (knowing we had a 30lb bird to cook the following day). We both ordered the tasting menu sans wine pairings and while the food was outstanding the portions were a little large to be just tastings (not necessarily a complaint - just an observation). Among my favorites were the grilled romaine salad, pork cheeks and the tuna tartar. We were offered the two nightly specials (one a swordfish and the other a strip steak). The swordfish was slightly over done and the strip steak came following duck and pork courses so it was a tad heavy. We did enjoy the two flavors of creme brulée for dessert (one chocolate and one vanilla) and they waiter did offer us a complimentary glass of champagne which was a nice gesture. We did feel like the ONLY ones in town - as we were one of 3 tables. Which brings me to my only complaint about our service. We made a reservation and were the 3rd of the three tables being utilized in the entire restaurant. We were seated directly next to a party of 4 who had yet to receive their entrees and had clearly had several drinks. They were loud and a little obnoxious to be sitting in such a small quaint restaurant. There were several other tables away from them that would have been more suited for us - a couple - obviously looking for a romantic dinner together. Luckily they ate quickly and left before we had our 3rd course. A wonderful bottle of Austrian Pinot Noir had us wanting more though and I love the creative name - Patrick and Jenny = NOBLE & FAIR in Gaelic! read more

Truly a fabulous dining experience! I just love the initial experience the restaurant offers, with black painted ceilings, mostly black walls, a gorgeous black-and-white damask wallpaper and red accenting. It's tiny and quite intimate and greatly enhanced by the overall decor. Then it helps that the food backs it up! Our wait service was quietly competent throughout the entire meal and was a thorough pleasure. We started with a tasty little amuse-bouche and followed it up with two salads: a baby wedge and the grilled romaine. Both salads were excellent. I loved the charring on the romaine along with the resultant depth of flavors. So good! Our entrees were excellent as well. My husband had the duck dish. HIs was cooked perfectly and very lovely. Subtle, homey and delish! I had the strip steak and that was outstanding. It was prepared philadelphia style, with an herbed, slightly charred crust and served over potatoes and asparagus. SO highly recommend it. We NEVER indulge in dessert - but our server was QUITE the little salesperson and, two minutes later, we were enjoying a bit of chocolate love cake...that was love in chocolate form. So good. Overall bill was reasonable and the evening was delightful. VERY highly recommended! read more

Wow! Came here for a special occasion birthday dinner and it did not disappoint! The food was great and the ambiance unlike anything else in Savannah. You feel like you're eating dinner in someone's elaborately decorated home. What was so fun is we had gotten to the restaurant early and had a chance to grab a drink at the very intimate upstairs bar. The staff was very attentive and we had great meals. I got the short ribs which were delicious and best, already off the bone. And my boyfriend got the lamb shank special that was a ton of food. We both left full bellied. The wine selection was great, and I can't wait to come back! read more

Amazeballs, y'all. Went here as a special anniversary dinner (because we don't have enough coin to eat here every day, but I wish we did). Seriously one of the best, if not THE best, dining experiences ever. Noble Fare's location is just off the beaten path, in an unassuming corner of the world. The intimate dining room makes it feel like a secret supper club. We spoke with our server (Derek, I think his name was) about how amazing the meal was (the Duck Duck Duck No Goose made me want to slap someone - out of joy. My husband's grouper was the best he's ever had). He let us know that the owner, AKA the chef, shops every single day for ingredients and spends all day in the kitchen whipping up the magic that ended up in my tummy. No Sysco Food Service trucks here. Why the heck would you eat at some chain restaurant or Paula Deen's place when you could eat here? Worth the money, the experience was gorgeous. read more
