Motored over on a beautiful day to enjoy an anniversary meal on the water. If you're a boater, free parking!!!! We started with their drink of the day, a peachy mule. Delicious!!!! I need to talk about my jambalaya...it was the best I ever had! Three huge shrimp, 3 scallops, and lots of spicy chorizo. The seafood was cooked perfectly and the dish was full of delicious mildly spicy flavor. The broth makes a dish, in my opinion, and it did not disappoint. Just a perfectly flavored dish. I could eat this every day. Hubby got the tuna bowl. It was beautifully presented and delicious as well. The service was great. Our server was attentive and friendly. A perfect dining experience. read more

Steamboat factory turned into a restaurant on the water. The brick building has a lot of character inside and out. They are known for their smoked meats. We ordered the ole savannah chicken and the nachos. Ambience during Christmas time was classic lights, Christmas decor and factory beams. Limited vegetarian options. Service was good as well. read more

The food is really good. Prices have gone up a lot in the past few years but the quality is really consistent so that's fine. We used to go to the Sunday Brunch, which is amazing, but that was when it was $19.95. It's too much (29.95) now for our senior citizen pocketbooks. It's really good and I miss it. The brunch offerings are wonderful. The Bloody Mary's were pretty good and the staff is very attentive. BUT, and you know there is a but, we went for Happy Hour and NO PINA COLADA! so we went outside by the creek and ate-all good. So tell me dear readers, where can I get a pina colada in Kingston and good food? read more

The service was bad, but at least the food was cold! We sent back every dish we got because it was lukewarm at best - the service was completely complacent and the prices too high. read more

I coordinated a retiree mixer here and I have to say the place, the charcuterie platter, the price, the service was EXCELLENT. The day and weather were perfect. There were 24 of us and our server allowed us to gather outside on the Rondout Creek. The platter was available inside and drinks were very reasonably priced and the wine was a generous pour. She put 'to go' containers' for us to take our leftover bountiful platter which was very much appreciated. I have heard nothing but rave reviews from my fellow retirees. Highly recommend. I can't recall our servers name so I have a picture here, she was the BEST!!!! read more

I went to Sunday brunch at Ole Savannah the day after a wedding in town and I'm told this is the spot to go to for brunch. It's a buffet type which is great to see back, it's like being in the before time. They also had a self-serve mimosa and bloody mary bar (part of the wedding thing) which was very nice. What I like about a buffet is not the volume (it doesn't make sense for me) but rather the ability to try a bite of a number of different things. At ~$25 this buffet makes good sense. I tried the eggs benedict, mac & cheese, pulled pork, 1/2 bagel with cream cheese and smoked salmon, and the brisket. All were very good. read more

We ordered take out from this restaurant because we had good experiences during the pandemic ordering take out. However, this time it was very disappointing. Not only the meal was overpriced for the amount it served, the taste of food was only okay. Fried chicken was mediocre and brisket was too dry (and without bbq sauce!). Please see the pic, with this amount of food we paid $65. This is insane even with inflation. This is more expensive than dining in NYC! read more

I really gave this place THREE tries. Rude servers and subpar food. All 3 times were disappointing to say the least. The last time was this past Sunday, I came for brunch. We were sat and our waiter came over and immediately said "what do you want to drink?" I looked at him confused because I DIDNT KNOW WHAT THEY SERVED. Do they have mimosas? Do they have bottomless mimosas? I said "I dont really know I guess water?" I thought there would be brunch drinks- I'd also like to know the prices of things before i named off something in my head i wanted to drink. But okay. he walked away and came back with water and said "no menu today it's buffet style you can go up" Okay so I go up, I see a lot of people going up to grab their own mimosas and I was confused if that was included in the buffet price or not. I feel like that's something our waiter could have gave us a LITTLE information on, but he didn't seem to like us very much for whatever reason. Then we got to the food, it was ALRIGHT! Nothing blew my mind but that's okay. The only issue I had was the fact that the eggs Benedict was not cooked enough for consumption. Of course they are supposed to be runny eggs but the yolk was perfectly intact and the whites of the egg were also runny. Pretty sure it's not supposed to be like that. All in all, service sucks and the food isn't good enough to deal with the servers attitudes. read more

The Fried oyster sliders were absolutely amazing. My wife had BBQ Sliders were not even close to those. Sweet with a touch of heat BUT way too much fat on it. The ducks on the River were cute and loved all the extra fat we threw to them. Slow getting our 2nd drink the Awstruck hard cider so tasty. But the killer was NO PAPER TOWELS In the men's room All over the counter and floor and just a big mess. I told the owner he didn't seem to be in a rush to take care of it. Management needs to work on that. If they can't manage a clean restroom, I'd really hate to see the kitchen. I'm a cook at a golf course, easy stuff to make and Never had any food come back. The reviews for this place are really sad. Such a nice looking place in a nice place on the river yet it needs a lot of work. Get rid of the manager and start over. We will NEVER be back. read more

Visiting the area in search of lighthouses, we arrived in the later afternoon on a very hot Sunday in July and were enticed by the idea of sitting outside, watching the boats come and go on Rondout Creek. To our pleasure, we were able to sit outside. The outdoor dining area was lovely and clean, with tables spread out for social distancing. Our waitress promptly arrived with iced, cold water and asked for drink orders while we perused the menu. We ordered a Stella draft and a hard cider. We both enjoyed the breeze and watching the boat traffic on the creek while dining. For the appetizer we had the corn fritters with maple syrup butter. Good portion size, crunchy, tasty fritters. My dining partner did not care for them too much, but loved the maple syrup butter and wish there had been more. We also ordered the house made biscuits. These were like little cornbreads and they did not look nor taste homemade to me. My dining partner thought they were fantastic! Main courses: Pulled pork shoulder with coleslaw and baked beans, and blackened catfish with grilled corn salsa and cucumber tomato salad. The pulled pork was moist and tasty,the barbecue sauce was on the sweet side. Excellent. The baked beans were flavorful and rich. The coleslaw was kind of bland, but still o.k., although the servings seemed very small. Both entrees were $19.95 with my side salad being an additional $4.95. The blackened catfish was flaky and tasted fresh, yet it tasted like it had been coated in breadcrumbs. It lacked either lemon or butter as a topping. I did ask for lemon and it was brought immediately. The hot fish was placed upon the huge serving of cucumber and tomato salad--which made the salad warm. The salad itself lacked any flavoring or spices and it did not at all to go well with the catfish. There was some grilled corn atop the catfish, but it was definitely not a salsa of any kind. Service was friendly and prompt and I found sitting outside to be most pleasurable and relaxing. Restrooms were clean and the inside of the restaurant was tastefully decorated. If in the vicinity, I would like to try some other menu items at this place. read more

I've been here a few times now for regular dinner, the brunch buffet, and the Mother's Day buffet. The good news: almost everything fabulous! I love the location, the parking, the ambience, the drinks, the space between the tables, the hours, and the impeccable service. Can't say enough good things about the service from everyone I've met. The bad news: the food is consistently mediocre. I've had a wide variety of apps, entrees, and desserts and have found every dish to have something major off with it, although presentation is always on point. Overpriced for the food, but not for the whole experience. Summary: I'll always go back because it's a nice time, but I don't go to enjoy the food read more

Service, service, service... we waited 45 mins for a couple of starters. And both were room temperature. Place had high hopes but failed terribly with the service and quality of food. On top of that the waitress put it upon themselves to tip them 40% on the bill after the service. There were about 100 servers walking around the place so I'm not sure why the food took so long as they definitely were not under staffed. read more

Food is very good. Ambiance is cool. Every time I go in, no matter what bartender it is, they are preoccupied. Wait for a drink, wait for the check. Another customer mentioned that the bartender was too busy watching TV to get him another drink. And it is usually between lunch and dinner service. They need to step up. read more

I am truly not aure why the poor rating for this restaurant. We went twice and we loved it. Th first time sat outdoor (stressful since there were so many bees, so careful!) and wanted to chill an try a small bite. We ordered the pulled pork sliders and were SURPRISED. SO GOOD. I am always hesitant ordering pulled pork because many times restaurants served it a on the dry side. Let me tell you that the whole combo of bread, meat was... so so good. So, we came back another day (sitting inside) the place is huge and Inloved the decor. This time we had the shrimp which were super tasty as well, brisket, ribs, mac and cheese and the asian noodles. Again, food was delicious. Brisket was really tender but the real star was the ribs. They melted in your mouth and the taste was perfect. Not too much sauce that you could not really notice the meat flavour but the perfect amount for the twist. Noddles were average, and tbh, I wouldnt order them i a place like this but ny son really wanted them so... Oh, conr bread on the house 100% recommended read more

My wife and I went there to celebrate her birthday. We had wings for appetizers they were good. For main we order the ribs and brisket. The ribs smelled fishy and the brisket was over cooked. We send it back there's was no problem there, that was great. We order the chicken it was taking a while so we ended up taking it to go, we had other stuff we want to do. When we got home later that night we wanted to eat the chicken one bite in we see raw chicken. Also very dusty place there was a wire i think it was for the lights over our table cover in dust just hanging from it. Hope you have a better experience. read more

Sorry Had to Walk out. First and Foremost , I m absolutely a Dog lover/Owner, and Have no problem with well Trained Dogs in Outdoor Restaurant Spaces. I've travelled extensively in Europe , and most restaurants allow dogs, and yes most are well behaved, but I think it beyond acceptable to have a dog on a Barstool in a place that serves food. I was lunching with my Aunt , who is extremely allergic to dog .It certainly seems that a dog , indoors , ON a barstool in an establishment that serves food would not pass Health Code Regulations. The one star is for a beautiful Location. read more

My husband and I met friends at Ole Savannah for Sunday brunch, it was the first time for all of us trying it. The buffet selection was impressive and the food was fantastic. We sat outside on a beautiful summer morning, can't wait to do the same in the fall, but the inside is beautiful! The waitress didn't need to do much since it was a buffet, but she came around often to check on us and remove our plates. We had a great time and can't wait to go back! read more

Ole Savannah is such a great location and the building/ambience is fabulous. Unfortunately, both times I've been the food is just so so for the price. It is fine, but nothing to write home about. I will say their drinks are very good, and would definitely go back to sit at the bar, but for me the food isn't necessarily worth it. read more

Overall, the food was tasty and our server was attentive and helpful. The smoked buffalo wings were a big hit, as were the brussels sprouts appetizer. The nachos are interesting, as they are drizzled with barbeque sauce. So if that's not your bag, ask for it on the side. Chicken and waffles were tasty, and the burgers were substantial. Prices were not bad, and the atmosphere is very nice. read more

The food was mid at best. More like bar quality food. I ordered the kong pao cauliflower and the pretzel app. The cauli was clearly just a pre packed bagged, super over breaded cauli that they deep fried. It was okay. The pretzel was soooo stale when it came out. I got the mushroom risotto with scallops which was also just okay. Maybe Applebees level quality. I got the margarita flight which I was very excited about and was also just okay. Our waitress Molly was awesome and super friendly. The staff were all very nice. The atmosphere was also great. It was my first time here and most likely my last. read more

I've done Lunch, Brunch and now just done dinner, one thing about this place,the service is impeccable, our server was on point. She explained to us that certain special that you find on FACEBOOK are not available everyday however they do have other specials available with the regular menu. We started with the bacon and eggs deviled eggs (had a nice kick to them and very good). I ordered the fried chicken, coleslaw and biscuit with a side order of macaroni and cheese,the macaroni and cheese needed more seasoning however the fried chicken was moist and crispy and the coleslaw had a sweet and crunchy texture. My wife said the chicken and waffles was fantastic especially the spicy honey sauce which goes over the chicken. My daughter said the mushroom risotto with the seared scallops was fantastic. 3 desserts was tried Pecan pie, Lemon meringue pie in a mason jar and the brownie overload sundae and they were all an excellent ending to our meal. So I can highly recommend this place for Brunch,Lunch and Dinner. read more

This used to be an excellent southern restaurant, but apparently they've tried to "broaden their audience" and have removed a substantial number of their southern dishes and replaced them with a variety of other options. Food seems all over the map. Quality of food has declined significantly. The corn bread was no longer fresh. Honestly not sure I'll come here anymore now that it's not a go to for southern cuisine. read more

Food was not good, many of the menu items were excessively sweet with no flavor. I ordered the quesadillas and they were exceptionally sweet even when adding hot sauce.

Friendly service and beautiful restaurant with overpriced food that is not very good at all. My wife and I have visited this place 3 times. And this was our last. First time we thought maybe it was an off night after a disappointing dinner. Second time we walked out after being seated at a disgusting dirty table for lunch. Third time back after a river cruise and ordered smash burger which was mushy and just not good at all. Fries cold. Poke bowl was bland and half full. 80 dollars for a very disappointing lunch. read more

I have been here a few times and I cannot deny that the food is good. The latest was for a brunch buffet this past Sunday. They give a really good spread from breakfast items (French Toast, eggs, bacon, sausage, etc) to lunch items (fried chicken, Mac and cheese, etc). Everything was good. My really big complaint is that given the size, they have way too few wait staff. Our waitress was good, but clearly harried having to take care of approximately 15 to 20 tables AND having to bus the tables. She was so harried, she neglected to tell us about the mimosa and Bloody Mary bar. And this was not an inexpensive meal. My advice is to hire more people! Give your wait staff a little help. read more

Went to Ole Savanna on Sunday, 6/2/24. Food was good but the utensils were dirty with old food stuck on them. Gross and the waiter rolled his eyes when we nicely asked for clean utensils. Replacements were not any different. This means a staff member wrapped up these dirty utensils in a napkin, many of them, and never looked at their condition. If I wasn't having a burger I would have walked out. read more

We saw the waterfront seating and decided to give Ole Savannah a visit. When we arrived it was a little chilly, so we opted to have a seat at the bar. The Rondout Valley is gorgeous and features a trolley and maritime museums. Very cool area! The bartender arrived quickly and we ordered a couple of craft beers which were excellent. I ordered the New Orleans BBQ Shrimp and my partner selected the Brisket Sandwich. The food arrived in a timely fashion. New Orleans BBQ Shrimp with Grilled Baguette: This is probably my favorite dish in the world and the high-water mark is Mr. B's in New Orleans. Ole Savanah really nailed this dish! The shrimp was tender and the sauce carried me right back to New Orleans. Seriously divine! The issue is that they don't give you that much bread and when I asked for more it never arrived. Wasting that delicious sauce felt criminal which is part of the reason I sadly can't give them 5 stars. Brisket Sandwich: This was also fantastic and the brisket was cooked perfectly and super tender. The bread was also delicious. Unfortunately the sides were a bit weak. The cole slaw tasted unseasoned and was almost just like sliced cabbage. It needed more vinegar, and perhaps some caraway seed and celery salt to give it some zip. The french fries were also disappointing. The fries on the very top of the basket were okay length, but rest were like half an inch long or smaller - more like french fry nubs. They were also a bit rubbery. Blanching the fries before frying is a great technique to prevent this, but does add additional time to the preparation. I'm surprised, because the main dishes were so excellent, I thought the sides would be in the same league. Service: The bartender Jon was attentive at first, but only came by once. I asked for more bread that never arrived, and my empty beer sat for a long time. I wanted another one, but too much time had passed. I believe he was working the high-top tables surrounding the bar as well, so maybe this is not entirely his fault, but he was not at the bar for over 10 minutes at a time. I will certainly be back to Ole Savannah. I want to try other menu items and sit outside on the Rondout Creek next time. Even with the minor misses on the sides and service, BBQ Shrimp of this quality is something really hard to find outside of New Orleans. Just be sure to order extra bread up front. read more

We went for the Valentine's Day dinner menu, which we never do. We both had the surf and turf, which was a filet mignon and lobster tail with mashed potatoes and green beans.

It came with a bottle of champagne which we took to go since we wanted to order different drinks. I have been here for brunch and had my daughter's baby shower here. Service was always great and the staff was very accommodating. All the food I have had has been great also. I would give 5 stars except I feel the drinks are overpriced but that seems to be the norm lately. I will definitely go again. read more
