We had such a great time our first experience at Savannah Oyster. My wife and I ended up having 48 raw oysters and a few small plates. We sat at the bar the whole time I usually don't like that but it was so comfortable and the bartender was great to hang with. I would definitely recommend this spot. The deco was soothing and food was delicious read more

We had James as our server and loved him! He was very knowledgeable on the oyster menu specifically. Everyone at the table enjoyed their meals fully. We also loved the seafood tower with the shrimp, oysters, crab Louie, and ceviche The seafood tagliatelle was full of calamari, shrimp, and mussels with a very southern spice inspired sauce read more

Some of the best oysters we've enjoyed in a long time. We truly enjoyed our dinner here but felt like the server was upselling and wanted to turn our table quickly. Nice place and decor. read more

This one has been on my list for a while! Had a wedding in Mooresville and had to make a resy. We started with a seafood tower and a bottle of red. Man, we were stuffed after the tower! Our server recommend the whole bass and the scallops. So good. Large portions! Charleston and coastal vibes. Wonderful service, beautiful interior and fresh seafood! Highly recommend checking them out. read more

It is quite rare for me to write a negative review, but this experience warrants one. We dined on Mother's Day with a confirmed reservation for the covered patio. Upon arrival, we were instead seated indoors. We inquired several times about being accommodated outside, as originally reserved, but were told it was not possible and that only fully sun-exposed tables were available. This explanation was difficult to reconcile, as we later observed other parties of similar size being seated on the patio during our visit. In an effort to address the inconvenience, we were informed that our drinks would be complimentary; however, they were ultimately included on our final bill, which was disappointing and undermined the gesture. Regrettably, the food did not meet expectations either, falling short in both quality and execution. Overall, a disappointing experience, particularly for what should have been a special Mother's Day occasion. read more

I had an excellent meal at Savannah the other night. A great New England style clam chowder with homemade saltine crackers. That was special. Oysters Rockefeller done true to the original dish. A shrimp and crawfish gumbo on a perfect Monday of rise and a piece of crispy fried flounder on top. They are also serving $2 raw oysters between 4-6 everyday. read more

Service was great, food was good, ambiance was mid. We were seated immediately upon arriving and our server was quick to take our drink orders. She was very attentive throughout the whole meal. I had the Steak with Demi Glaze. It was good. The drinks were well made. The restaurant felt very bright to me. Not a big complaint but not a cozy date night place. More of a family night occasion place. I do not like seafood so I probably won't be back but the three others we were with were very happy with their food. TLDR: You like seafood you like this place. Have fun!!! read more

We simply love this restaurant. The menu is top notch. Try the Branzino ... best around. The decor 'Hemingway' based is colorful and classy. Say hi to Eric. Staff are very knowledgeable and super friendly and proffessional. Starting the last few weeks, we go often. Thanks for being in Mooresville'. read more

Experience the best of Mooresville NC at Savannah Oyster Co; a haven of delectable delights. Every sip and bite is a testament to their exceptional food and drinks. The Raw Bar's oysters are a revelation - fresh, plump, and bursting with flavor. Natives of the South Carolina Coast, we're delighted to sing praises of this standout land-locked restaurant. The cozy coastal ambiance is the perfect accompaniment to a truly unforgettable dining experience. read more

This place was not for us, but would be great for some, maybe even most. Very nice atmosphere. Food quality looked great, but expensive. We ended up not staying for dinner. As soon as we were seated and served drinks, the fire alarm went off . That part was not enjoyable - so we left. $15 mocktails - very good Oysters were small and $4-5 per shuck - weren't there long enough to try. read more

A group of us came here for some drinks & dinner! We ordered a bunch of apps to share and then individual entrees. Fried Green Tomatoes - Very tasty and lightly breaded Calamari - Prepared well, breaded but overall quite light Boiled Oysters - Very flavourful and cooked perfectly Seafood Tower - 100% recommend all the seafood included was so fresh Shrimp & Grits - Very tasty, grits were delicious and the shrimp was cooked perfectly Scallops - Prepared well, but the overall dish felt average read more

Several weeks ago I made reservations for a Saturday night dinner. We had people coming in from out of town and we were all looking forward to a nice night out. I got a call on Thursday evening that they were cancelling my reservation to accommodate a wedding party they had booked. I sorry but that is just piss poor customer service. We had to scramble to find another restaurant for our guest, which was a difficult task on a holiday weekend. I will no longer be a patron of Savannah Oyster Company! read more

Our server was fantastic! I can't remember her name but she mentioned that she worked in Ft. Walton Beach, FL at one point, she was simply fantastic. As far as the food goes, very limited menu options and very pricey. We order a dozen raw oysters, all very fresh, sweet and briney just how I like them. We also ordered the chivie, very fresh and really good. We also ordered the "smoked fish dip". This was the worst fisj dip I've ever had. Zero fish flavor, zero smoke flavor. It seemed like cream cheese with some kind of "texture" mixed into it. Served with pickles red onions and fresh "pickle" slices. It was as simple bad, just not worth eating. In physical facility it's self was clean and well presented. Not over "ocean" done, just enough. read more

This was our second time here and immediately upon walking in your transported right out of Mooresville and right to the coast. The decor and ambiance is so beautiful and inviting. We got our wish and Lauren was our server again! She is passionate about the food, incredible knowable about the menu and overall just kind and engaging, goes above and beyond! Honestly one of the best servers I've ever had anywhere! Once again the food was outstanding. I will be going back for the crab cakes and soup very soon. I forgot to ask for the chefs name tonight but cheers to the chef, everything was divine! read more

We ate outside on the patio and it was busy but not packed. Appetizer came out promptly - was lukewarm but not bad. Took a while to place order for entrees, but we were not in a rush. My husband's dinner never came nor did my glass of wine. The server didn't know this because she never came back to check on us. When she finally came back to see if we wanted dessert, I politely explained that they never came and asked to have them removed from the bill. She said okay. No real apology, no offer to bring his meal right away. Nothing. Got the bill - his entree was removed, wine was not. She did unenthusiastically offer us a dessert on the house, but my husband of course was looking for dinner. Finally got the corrected bill. No thanks you for coming, come back again, nothing. Large bill for horrible service and expensive oysters. Left a decent tip only on the assumption that she needed to tip out the bartender and shucker - hope that she remembered to do that... read more

A very nice establishment. I didn't really know what I was going to eat since I am not a big seafood eater. Besides the octopus, calamari and other "exotic" food from the sea, they did have a variety of other food items for those not into seafood could enjoy. I'm pleased to say, that it was not just a menu filler! One in my party had the ribeye. It was really good. I had the shrimp and grits. They were really good too. Our server was very attentive ti the table and knowledgeable about the menu and history behind the restaurant. We went in a Saturday evening and it was a very nice crowd. We had reservations. I recommend eating here. They were generous with drinks too! read more

Savannah Oyster - Shrimp and grits. - Wine Bars Near Me - Mooresville, North Carolina

We heard good things about Savannah Oyster and was looking forward to trying it. Met up with some friends and off to the races. The decor and atmosphere was really fresh and airy. Our server greeted us and again was really excited about the experience. We started with the grilled octopus and it was really good. For our mains, we had the Mahi Mahi and Shrimp and Grits. Both dishes were good and did enjoy our meals. However, I think that everything is a little overprice. I'm not above spending some extra money for an amazing meal, but this for me was not an amazing meal. I'm sorry to say this, but for me I will pass. read more

Great vibe and atmosphere. Good was beautifully presented and had great combinations of flavors and textures. You get a fresh load of sourdough bread and 3 spreads. We shared the crab dip and clam chowder. The crab dip didn't have many large lump crabs as described, but the clam chowder was delicious! Matt got the halibut special, and I got the NC trout. We were both happy with our choices. For dessert, we shared the chocolate cake, which was not super sense but packed with chocolate goodness. Also, for dry January, I got a mocktail. I'm not sure what it was as I described flavors I like, and this yummy drink showed up! Fun night out! read more

Southern charm meets coastal chic: the oysters are fresh and the drinks are strong! This second restaurant from the team at Barrel & Fork (check out my review on Yelp) is delicious and unique for upscale dining in Lake Norman. I personally loved the oysters on the half shell, the mussels, and the mezcal smoked old fashioned. The ceviche gets an honorable mention and the saffron lobster risotto with green peas and bacon was some of the best I've ever had. The lobster was sublime. Service was knowledgeable, attentive, and came with a big ol' dollop of southern hospitality. Hemingway looms on a wall nearby and Spanish moss drapes over the cozy seating vignettes for a relaxed and sexy southern landscape. Don't sleep on the sourdough bread service - the pimento cheese is bussin. I'll be a regular here! Two things I wished were different: lower lighting in the evening with maybe some candle light/tea lights on the tables. Perhaps some noise dampening wall panels or other implement. Not too much though - I love a great buzz and Savannah doesn't disappoint. The bar is beyond stocked and creative... coming from the team and Barrel & Fork, would you expect anything less than "wow"?! Park on the street or in one of downtown Mooresville's designated lots and walk over to Liberty Park after dinner. It's so beautiful and has a great venue for live music + playgrounds for kids and a basketball court. Protip: dress to impress or dress casually chic, but prepare to see and be seen. You'll feel like you're out in Charleston here! read more

A lovely new restaurant for Mooresville. Reservations seem to be an absolute necessity. You can choose Dining Room (tables) or a Raw Bar Stool (be warned, these are backless), where you can watch the oyster shuckers. Some people dressed for a nice evening out but there were many who didn't dress for the restaurant. Our server was very nice, very attentive and very professional. She forgot to share the specials which was disappointing as I overheard them when shared with the table next to us, but otherwise she was outstanding and perfect. My point being - they DO have specials so be sure to ask what they are for your night. Complimentary sourdough bread is served with teeny, tiny portions of a very good, slightly smokey pimento cheese, tasteless butter and blackberry jam. As another reviewer said, a serrated bread knife is needed. The bread is generously sized, warm and fluffy but because you have to tear it to share it, your piece will be flat by the time you put it on your plate. We (there were 4 of us) wanted to try a lot of different dishes. We got 16 oysters (2 kinds) and our server was able to guide us on the different qualities of each and help choose the right ones for us. They were excellent, plump and delicious. $4 per oyster for all but two of the options which were $5 per oyster. Lobster Crabcakes: sweet corn soubise, green tomato jam, crisp country ham $18 on the starter menu were the size I expected - 2 smaller crabcakes with plenty of lobster and not a lot of filler. They were fried rather than sauteed. The first bite was a pleasure. The Ceviche $18 was in a teeny bowl, again a starter size, not in a larger bowl like in South America. On our evening the ceviche was made from sea bass. Served with housemade tortilla chips, it's the right size for one but could be lightly shared. A nice Clam Chowder: caramelized pearl onion, carrot, celery, potato, lardon, oyster crackers $9 Crab & Avocado Timable: dressed jumbo lump crab, sliced avocado, crisp shallots, frisée, grapefruit vinaigrette $16. I had high hopes for this one and it was very nice but unfortunately mostly bland. The grapefruit vinaigrette either was tasteless or it needed plenty more. Lots of nice jumbo lump crab, crispy shallots and fresh green avocado, it was beautifully presented. (Edited: I brought half home for the next day. I should have asked for a little bit of grapefruit vinaigrette but forgot to so I added some lemon vinaigrette I made. That's all the dish needed - a little more vinaigrette and the frisée torn into bites rather than one large leaf and it was now perfect.) Chilean Seabass: potato & scallion rosti, caramelized onion soubise, broccolini, green tomato jam $46. A moist, good sized serving of fresh Seabass topped a rosti (clearly housemade - shredded potatoes made into a cake and quickly browned, very good). Broccolini had good flavor as well. NC Catfish: cornflake crust catfish fillet, Carolina gold rice, HRF andouille. house pickled okra, Jalapeno-tabasco tartar sauce $34. Our seafood-hating friend went with this choice since it was a mild fish and fried. She cleaned every inch of her plate and said she was thrilled with her choice. Karaage Calamari: ginger marinated squid steaks, panko, sweet chili sauce, hot and sour slaw $16. These are squid steak bites instead of squid rings (which is what you get 95% of the time). Very good altogether. Seafood towers and smoked bourbon drinks were carried past our table frequently. Drinks are pricey here, just fyi. Club soda was $2.50, a cocktail was $12, a recommended blueberry cinnamon cheesecake martini was $14 and a Blanton old-fashioned was $26. A special shout out to Savannah Oyster Company on their environmental consciousness. They use small compostable boxes for leftovers (no plastic here!) and metal straws for cocktail drinks. Big points for doing small things - every little bit helps. A+ It's on the louder side in the restaurant and every seat was filled. Tables are very close together. A glass decanter of water is brought to each table as seated and refilled if needed. We were seated at the exact time of our reservation and all food was brought out promptly, no long waits. They're doing a thriving business already and everyone is very happy with this needed addition to the 28115. read more

Honestly, the only reason this is a three is because the food was very good. It would have been a 1 or 2 otherwise based on our experience. 8pm reservation. Seated between 8:35 and 8:40 - don't remember the final time we were finally acknowledged to be seated. Admittedly I wanted to leave, but the people I was with really wanted to try the place. Two other parties were there also talking to us about leaving because they also hadn't been seated for their 8:15 reservations. It was also very loud. At our four seat table we had a hard time hearing one another. 8:50 a server comes to our table and gets an order for drinks. At 9 pm we get water, shortly after drinks... we get bread at 9:15. This was ridiculous. The bread came with a butter knife, but needed a bread knife to cut it so that was kind of a mess. Again, everyone loved the food they ordered - from scallops to tuna to sea bass. Everyone liked it. When a friend ordered bourbon it was about 10 minutes later that he found out they were out of that bourbon. They kept bringing up specials and then saying they were out. I get that we were a later reservation, but just don't bring it up if you know you're out. Will I go back? I'm honestly unsure. read more

Wonderful addition to the Lake Norman area! LN was in desperate need of a great quality seafood restaurant and this one meets the standard!! They have a fresh raw bar, great service, and high quality modern entrees and back of the house made desserts. The only opportunity is that the bourbon bar needs to be stocked up. I'll be back!! read more

Came for Mothers Day. Oysters are best feature here, duh! The Sea Bass Ceviche is good but tiny servings for an appetizer. Sea bass dinner was good. Now the bad. Sea Bass dinner was tiny maybe 3oz fillet, all Extremely small servings. Fish and Chips by one of our party was terrible oily and they ran out of fresh cut FF but went out and got more !?? On a Sunday!?? They must have gone to Food Lion. They ran out of chicken!?! Lmao. They brag about the Tequila and Bourbon selection but don't have a sprints list?! Craft? Cocktails hahaha Fail. Once again this is another Charlotte metro area restaurant attempting to be worth the price. read more

The oysters were very good, extremely tasty. The service was great. We really enjoyed it.

Okay, First off in writing this review I was contemplating heavenly on should I even leave this review, but I was so bothered when I saw this that I truly couldn't help not too. I was invited out to Savannah Oyster Company this pass Saturday to have dinner with some friends of mines. Now before I inform you about this I want to mention service and food was impressive. I have eaten at both Barrel and Fork and Savannah in the past. However this particular day we sat near the bar and had dinner. I was really enjoying myself until I saw a server that I recognized being from the Florida area. I was completely in shocked because I immediately asked my friend who is also from the Florida area that this particular server looks very familiar. When I found out his name I immediately knew who he was. Now the only reason I am saying this is because I was in fact impacted by his schemes. To the point I didn't even want to pay for our dinner with my credit card because of who he was. It really has taken me sometime to sit with this information and send it out but again me and my family was impacted by this particular server. All I'm saying is please do background checks on who you hire because you can be hiring someone who in fact is a high risk to your patriots. read more

Would highly recommend Savannah to anyone craving some great seafood and cocktails. Ambiance 10/10, service 10/10, and food was exceptional.

Ridiculously overpriced and pretentious! Got there at 4:45pm on a Friday just to try them out. I said I would sit at the Raw Bar since I was alone. After I was seated the hostess said she had to check if the bar was reserved? At 5pm? She never returned with a reply so I guess not. Each oyster is individually priced between $3 and $5 each, most being $4 on the menu; although there were no $3 oysters on my bill after I ordered one of each! That was $26 for 6 VERY small oysters and $14 for a rather small drink. Service staff were friendly, if not very knowledgeable. They were holding the pre-service run down beside me, an hour after the doors opened and I was told that dinner isn't served until 6pm even though they open at 4pm. I honestly thought about leaving, but heck I was here already. Perhaps it would be outstanding? It wasn't. I guess this side of Mooresville is closer to NYC than I thought! read more

This place is amazing!! Oysters are some of the best I'm ever had! Everything on the menu is delicious as well. Great bar service, bar tenders take pride in their drinks! We love to go there for Happy Hour! Discounted drinks,, appetizers, and oysters! It's a must go... read more

Great food and service. The seafood is not inexpensive, but it is fresh and well prepared.
