    Fazzoletti with gluten-free noodles
    Chris W.

    This was my first visit and is now one of my favorite restaurants in Savannah! We came for my birthday. Foodie-approved, delicious food. Attentive, friendly service team. High-class, elegant dining in many home-inspired rooms in this historic building. Gluten-friendly for those intolerant! We started with the GRILLED OCTOPUS. The seasoned, charged flavor was outstanding. It was not the most tender octopus that I have enjoyed, but it was very enjoyable. I love me some octopus. They provide bread, which was good, but not authentic to Italian style. It was a bit like mushy white American bread. I would love to see them bring a more structured bread with crusty exterior. The SEASONED OLIVE OIL served with the bread was very high quality. The oil was peppery, a testament to its freshness. They even had gluten-free bread for my daughter. Next course, we enjoyed a SHAVED ASPARAGUS SALAD. I have never had such a salad, and thoroughly enjoyed it. They literally shave thin slices of asparagus stalks and mix in snow peas leaves. For the pasta course, we enjoyed the CAMPENELLE, a mushroom-forward dish. Super delicious! My daughter enjoyed the FAZZOLETI, a butter and cheese sauce with a runny egg. Also very tasty and buttery delicious. They make their own pasta fresh in-house. They offer gluten-free pasta which is not made in-house, but glad to have the option for those that need it. For main course, we enjoyed the BISTECCA FLORENTINA. It's a 24oz, Koji aged prime cut with porcini butter and bone broth. It comes with T-bone but pre-cut from bone and sliced which makes things easy. We ordered medium rare and they delivered. For sides, we selected the SPINACH and PEARL POTATOES. They were simple but good. I would have appreciated if they were more highly seasoned or topped with a sauce. Perhaps offer creamed spinach. TIP: Dishes are good sized. If you are thinking about a full 5-6 course meal, you can easily share with one or two people. This helps you from overeating and helps keep bill down. For dessert, we enjoyed a FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE CAKE. I loved it because it was choclatey without being too overly rich...so your body doesn't feel bad after eating it. They have a large drink menu with lots of wines. I was not familiar with the available Italian wines and our waiteress was able to help make selection. In another testament to service, my water glass had a smell, and they not only gave me new glass but also brought a whole new bottle of sparkling water, even though the water itself wasn't the source of the smell. It wasn't on the after-dinner drink Menu but you can ask for LEMONCELLO for the true Italian experience. I am not sure if they made it or not, but it was yummy. This was not a cheap dinner but considering it was a 5-course, high quality, elegant dinner, the price was extremely fair. I will be back!

    Burrata with Black Berries and pickled onions
    Dan D.

    Understated yet elegant and delicious! A bit of effort to find Saint Bibiana is required. Don't look for any signage just look for the address and the house number above the door. If you know, you know - shh! This is a hidden gem of a spot in Savannah, just off Forsyth Park in a historic building that blends well with the surroundings. Apparently, next door is a hotel discreetly tucked into the same building. Inside you will find a classy atmosphere with a beautiful bar, white tablecloths and elegantly decorated dining rooms and alcoves. The service is professional and refined. The menu features many tempting options whether house made pastas, seafoods or land based proteins catch you eyes. Excellent choices appear available in every segment of a multi course designed menu. A word to wise, be sure to hear the specials before commenting to any bit of the menu offerings. We started with a Burrata with Blackberries and a shaved Asparagus Salad. Both were well plated and delicious. My wife choose a specials item of Seared Scallops on a Squash Purée and I opted for one of the menu based pastas, the Paccheri with Shrimp. Once again beautifully presented and quite delicious. Both proteins were perfectly cooked and my pasta was exceptional. Richly flavored Calabrian Pepper, Parmesan and Roasted Breadcrumbs provided tasty bites. Sadly, we didn't have room for dessert. Perhaps next time. They offer more than dinner including a brunch, lunch and even breakfast. In addition, cooking classes are available and sound like another item for our next visit to Savannah. This is quite a place.

    Found this gem while walking around near Forsyth Park. What a beautiful building inside and out. Was able to get a table for two for dinner right away and even got a nice window seat! Amazing service first off and everything we chose was delicious. They also had a bread guy who provided two different types of focaccia bread. I ordered the Blue Crab antipasti plate and the side of roasted ox heart carrots and my mom ordered the Paccheri (shrimp pasta). Surprisingly our favorite dish was the carrots! Roasted to perfection and seasoned with some sort of charcoal? The crab was also fresh and delightful. Very meaty. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Savannah!

    We absolutely adore a pup, friendly patio.

    From the moment you arrive, this place feels like something out of a dream. Set within a beautifully preserved historic mansion, the restaurant effortlessly blends old-world elegance with a modern convince and design. The outdoor seating is perfect, dog-friendly, thoughtfully arranged, and offering serene views of the park that make you want to linger long after your meal is finished. The experience is elevated even further by a truly exceptional team. The sommelier and staff are not knowledgeable, they're deeply passionate, guiding you through the menu with precision and genuine enthusiasm. Every dish and bottle feels intentional, every recommendation spot-on. The wine list deserves special praise: it's both sophisticated and playful, filled with unique finds and staples from all over Italy. It's the kind of list that surprises you in the best way possible, it is so evident that they take great pride in their cellar. As for the food, it's simply outstanding. Every dish we had was seasonal, impeccably fresh, and beautifully presented, refined without feeling fussy. The flavors were vibrant, balanced, and fresh. We ended the evening with a flight of Negronis, which was nothing short of brilliant. Each variation was distinct, thoughtfully crafted, and a perfect finale to an already unforgettable meal.

    We stopped in for drinks. The ambiance is very special. It is located in Hotel Bardo and the decor, the U shaped bar, the art and the furnishings all give an immediate "wow this is a cool place" vibe. I ordered the Bloody Mary, it was very good but extremely spicy!! Lots of pepper and some kind of Parmesan liquor, topped with a pepperocini, burnt leak, fresh dill and cooked celery. My mouth definitely came alive with this drink.. took a few glasses of water to calm it down. My husband enjoyed his Negroni. Stephanie our bartender had only been here a week and she was amazing! We will return.

    Torchetti pasta
    Breanna A.

    Quick stop into St Bibiana's for some brunch because we had to stop here with all the rave reviews and I'm a sucker for pasta. We were able to walk in and grab a table Sunday afternoon for brunch. Ordered the fra lippi cocktails- definitely more sangria forward, and the torchetti pasta. Wish they had more pasta options on the brunch menu but that torchetti pasta was perfection either way. I hope to come back one day for dinner and try some more dishes!

    I really really wanted to love St. Bibiana's, as I had heard so many raving reviews. I made reservations for a girls night and upon entry the ambiance and scenery were impeccable. It was just so cute, especially the seperated screened in dining area. My waitress was very helpful and attentive. They were able to accommodate me and make me a drink not on the menu. Unfortunately, we just didn't like the food. The bread service was cold and the risotto was mushy. It reminded me more of a porridge than risotto and it lacked flavor. I would return for drinks or to try the appetizers in the future.

    Very nice restaurant but a bit pricey. Old fashion was great and hears the martini is good too. Dinner food was very good but brunch was pretty basic with small portions. Reservations are through Resy and the open spots will disappear the day of (even though there was plenty of open tables the hostesses also said they were full). Luckily we got in but reserve ahead to avoid issues, even if app or venue looks free! Bartenders were super nice, loved sitting in their section!!

    The interior of the restaurant was nicely decorated. We came for some drinks and appetizers and didn't have a reservation and they nicely let us sit at the nook under the stairs. The complementary bread was nice with an oil and vinaigrette sauce on the side. I got the mocktail which just tasted like a flatter sprite to me. The burrata was nice and plump and soft. The octopus salad was my favorite as the octopus was cooked well and soft, but I wish the serving size was larger. The crudo was my least favorite as it was not fresh with a fishy taste and had a weird taste. I've eaten plenty of sea urchins before to know the sea urchin I ate was also not fresh and was not sweet. The appetizers were pretty expensive for the amount.

    Came to Saint Bibiana for a friend's birthday dinner and had a great experience. We were seated earlier than our reservation at a super comfy table with couch seating. They brought out complimentary caramelized onion and rosemary bread that was so good we ordered another round. The birthday girl also received a complimentary drink and dessert, which was a really nice touch. We ordered the Bucatini Neri, Bibiana Pomodoro, Cavatelli Sardi (looked amazing but couldn't try cause I'm vegetarian), and crispy potatoes -- everything we tried was flavorful and well done. Our waiter was super friendly and attentive. Overall, a lovely spot for a fancy night out or special occasion.

    If you're headed to Savannah, this is a wonderful fancy restaurant to add to your list. We were able to have a long, drawn-out (perhaps 3 hours) meal here amongst friebds and spend quality time together. They never rushed us along or out, and it was surprisingly easy to make a res. within a week of going! We ordered a bunch across the menu and shared everything. I think this restaurant is great for that. I must say, the Antipasti's/Verduras stole the show for me-- reach was better than the next, and all were highlights of the meal. We didn't get anything we didn't like. Note: during your meal, a bread server comes around with (unlimited) Rosemary and/or Onion focaccia. This is great to note in case you want to pass on a Bruschetta or bread-based starter! Also my friend ordered the BEST and perhaps most-unique cocktail I've (possibly) ever had-- the Theodora. Lastly, don't miss the Grilled Mediterranean Octopus (Antipasti)! The consensus was that this was our fav item

Its intimate and inviting when you walk inside. Chef Joe and his wife Barbara were warm and greeted us right away. There were 20 people that came tonight, a full house! Chef Joe went around the room and personally introduced himself to each person before the cooking began and tried to get to know each person a little. Sitting at each dinner setting is a menu detailing the night's courses and the recipes for all of them. Make sure to bring a camera to take pictures and a pen to make notes. Chef Joe adds a lot of details as he cooks and gives suggestions on variations of each dish. Tonight was the Dinner Party and our menu consisted of Crab and Corn Chowder, Roasted Rack of Sage Rubbed Pork with Madeira Jus Lie, Hoppin' John, Rustic Macaroni and Cheese, Stewed Okra and Tomatoes, Southern Collard Greens, Hoe Cakes and Peach Cobbler with Vanilla Ice Cream. I have to add here that I don't care for seafood, anything that has a fishy taste in the slightest is not for me. I was nervous about trying the Crab and Corn Chowder... but it was delicious! I couldn't believe how amazing (and non-fishy) it was especially considering he used a seafood stock to make the base. My mouth waters even thinking about it. It will take too long to go over each dish but each one was sooooo good. My favorites were the Okra, Mac n Cheese, Sage Rubbed Pork and Peach Cobbler. I've never had cobbler so good in my life. I cannot wait to go back for more and I cannot wait to make all these dishes myself. I have a feeling a few of these recipes are going to go into heavy rotation and make appearances at pot lucks, holiday dinners, and parties....
