While visiting Savannah we found this little gem Food--10/10. What a delightfully unique menu. The peach glazed chicken and the pecan encrusted chicken were superb. The grilled chicken sandwich, while ordinary, was juicy and perfectly grilled. Service--8/10. We arrived late in the evening and there was perhaps only be waiter working. Food took a while but when it came it was wonderful. Atmosphere--7/10. It's definitely off the beaten path but that is most things in Savannah. It was very modestly and simply designed. read more

One of the most disgusting places I've ever visited for food. The service was horrendous and the food was just gross. Who makes a BLT on a dang sub sandwich roll??? No One that's who. It was gross. They didn't even cut the core black portion off of the tomatoes. The lettuce was like chopped and the bacon was okay. No mayo or any condiments in the bread. The mashed sweet potatoes looked like vomit. The interior was nasty. The cook was nasty looking as was the manager. The waitress was sweet but needs training. So glad I have to never eat there again. I'm the it was a bad day but guys, do better. read more

This was a random stop the afternoon before seeing the Savannah Bananas play. We saw on the sign that that they had the best banana pudding and we were sold. We ordered a couple entrees to share and obviously went for the pudding and they weren't lying. It was so delicious!! I'm sad to see on Google that they have permanently closed. read more

My group of 4 came in for an early lunch on a rainy Saturday. The wait staff was efficient and friendly and we were seated and had drinks quickly. The restaurant decor appears dated and dingy. Our waitress was great. Food: The menu looks fantastic, but the taste didn't live up to expectations. My unsweetened tea was half and half, green beans were very salty, corn pudding was way too sweet, and chicken was dense. Tartar sauce was very good and tasted homemade, but would've been better if cocktail sauce was an option for shrimp. read more

All Good things must come to an end. 90 A health score. The vibe wasn't the same as my previous experiences, The restaurant felt damp and Old, and update is in order from the floors to the ceiling and in between. As always the food is tasty. Service a plus. So again I'm not going give up yet, one more try later this year to see if my feeling improves the perception on good old Sweet Potatoes Kitchen. read more

We stopped in for lunch a few weekends ago and had no idea this hidden gem would be the perfect lunch spot!!! We were greeted by incredibly sweet staff who were positive and welcoming. We were sat quick, as the dining room wasn't too full. I cant remember our servers name, but she was super nice and helpful too. She talked us through the menu and some of her favorites - we LOVE recos!! We took her up on the meatloaf sandwich and lima beans per her feedback, and couldn't have been more pleased. We also got a wedge salad. The Meatloaf was delicious and hearty and the sweet potato fries were delicious too. But the lima beans... OMG!! By far the best I've had in a while. They were a little lemony, with some dill, and perfectly cooked. My mouth is watering thinking about them right now!! The Wedge was also a great portion with fresh bacon crumbles and loads of blue cheese. YUM!! We will definitely be back!! thanks to the staff for a lovely lunch!! read more

We decided to try out Sweet Potato Kitchen, and I'm so glad we did! Each of us ordered something different, and every single dish was absolutely delicious (see photos!). For four plates, two soft drinks, one small dessert and two alcoholic beverages, our total came out to $98. A little on the pricier side, but worth it--the food was clearly homemade and high quality. The restaurant itself is small on the inside, but it has a cozy, homey feel. From being greeted at the front door to the attentive service from our server, the staff made the whole experience wonderful. Definitely a great spot to stop by if you're in the area. Highly recommend! read more

Sweet Potatoes Endearing Foods is an absolutely amazing southern cuisine restaurant. Their meatloaf actually ranks within my top 10 best and that is saying a lot because, I am a true Mealtoaf connoisseur.! If ya'll ever find yourself in Savannah Georgia, I highly recommend this little hidden jem! Oh, and the chocolate pecan pie is absolutely wonderful as well! This restaurant definitely recommends reservations during peak times and weekends, I visited here on the late Tuesday evening and it was not busy at all. Everyone was super nice and it was a very relaxing atmosphere. read more

Came here with my husband for a dinner on a Friday night. They were out of their fried chicken pieces, which was really excited to try so instead I got the deep fried cod with a side of mashed potatoes and the corn pudding. My husband got the fried chicken breast with mashed potatoes and french fries. For dessert we shared the banana pudding. Overall, everything tasted really good! The corn pudding was too sweet for my liking, but still good. They run pretty lean with staff so service was slow but still kind though. read more

I place where I use to be a semi regular, I haven't been here in 3 years cause I moved to Atlanta, I just moved back. This is a place I would have given 4 to 5 stars before . Today, I wouldn't give it a 1star, the portions were small, my country fried steak was way over cooked, how do we do that in the south, it's our thing. It was so bad and inedible I sent it back and just ate the vegetables, the corn pudding was great, the mash potatoes, dry and cold, it wouldn't even melt butter. This is a place I use to highly recommended, not anymore. It a shame, the service was great. You can Steve doesn't own it anymore. read more

Mixed reviews on this place. People are super friendly and willing to share recommendations. The food was flavorful; I had the pecan crusted chicken (comes with one breast for all chicken dishes), garlic mash, and Brussel sprouts. The garlic mash was delicious but the roasted Brussel sprouts were mushy. We asked for corn bread and we should have skipped it. The texture was crumbly and not in a good way and was drier than the Sahara dessert. Also, not sure why some of them were an inch or so thick and others were a quarter inch. All of them were the worst corn bread I've ever had. After we ordered, we waited about 20 minutes before they came back and told us they were out of some of the sides. Three of us had corn pudding but they came last minute to tell us they were out. While the chicken was good, we all mentioned that we wished it came with one more piece to make the meal feel full. The saddest part, in my opinion was that they have on their menu and website they have a top rated banana pudding, which is the real reason we were excited to come, but they were out. Would have loved to know that at the beginning as well. Wish they were out of the cornbread instead of the banana pudding. Plenty of parking. read more

Without reservation we decided to "come early" for dinner on a Saturday evening. The place closes at 8, so we arrived slightly before 6.30. Smoke parking and there's no line which is a good sign. There were 2 other parties in front of us though. Soon after they seated the 1st party and we were told to wait (no specified amount of time). We were probably waited about 20ish minutes before we got out table. The place is packed. Lots of people came after us and had to wait for tables as well. I was getting worried as I read past reviews while waiting but decided to stick with our venture. We were not disappointed! My fried chicken is super moist even though it was chicken breast. The taste is spot on and the right crunchiness as well. The catfish is flaky and light. My husband enjoyed his Jerk chicken. This is super rare because chicken is his least favorite meat, so for him to compliment a chicken dish it must be VERY good read more

After reading the great reviews, my husband, friend and I went to Sweet Potstoes last night. We were not disappointed. I got the fried chicken (only available 3 days of the week). Usually I just eat the yummy crispy outside and some of the meat when I get fried chicken, but the here meat was so tender and delicious that I ate the whole thing. The dilled lima beans and garlic mashed potatoes were very good too. My dinner companions were quite happy with their dinners also. Of course, we couldn't leave without trying the banana pudding. It was absolutely delectable! I tried to wriggle the recipe out of the server and owner but only got a few hints. I also have to mention that our server was a very nice young lady - smart and cheerful, with no problem offering her opinions on the food when asked. Everyone we spoke with there was nice, in fact. The ambiance was fresh and comfortable and very clean. It's a great place to go for some delicious southern cooking. I look forward to coming back the next time we are in Savannah. read more

We stopped here on the way home from nc and it was SUPER FAST! It was great so we could eat and relax for a bit and get back on the road. I ordered the buffalo sand which and it was SO good. My boyfriend loved all of his food! I was not a fan of the garlic potato's so my boyfriend ate them up lol. Super quick service and kind waitresses. The place is super cute. read more

This place used to be my go to place...the food was great and portions were reasonable... yesterday I ordered my favorite, the black and blue pork chop. The pork chop was half the size it was before and extremely dry...I had trouble even cutting it with a steak knife...the portions were smaller and the corn bread I got was so hard and dry that I almost broke my teeth...I am very saddened by the new ownership...I will not be back... it's not worth it anymore...it was horrible... read more

The food was good, but the to go portions were really small (mine and my husbands). I have heard plates in the restaurant are plentiful.

Our experience here was wonderful. Our server was so amazing and let us take our time, never rushing us. The ambiance of this restaurant feels so authentic, and it really makes you feel like you're on vacation! The food was perfection and some of the best I've had. In my opinion this is a hidden gem in Savannah you must try in this lifetime! read more

I came to this place to get some chicken gumbo and they were out. Bummer but I understand that happens. I wasn't wowed by this spot but it was ok. Parking: Our GPS took us to a back lot that I assume is for employees. I'm not sure what the parking is like in the front. read more

Took a trip to Savannah, Ga and saw there were good reviews for this restaurant. My friends and I decided to check it out. The special that evening was fried chicken. None of us ordered it but we probably should have. I had a vegetable plate with marinated cucumbers, sweet mashed potatoes and cornbread, My food was okay. It was seasoned but didn't give me any major aha moments. Our server was really busy but attentive. She was very sweet and assisted us through the night. read more

Southern Comfort Food Done Right This place has become my go-to spot for lunch when I'm at the firm. Every dish I've tried here has been fantastic! I've sampled several of their entrees, including the hamburger steak, country fried chicken, meatloaf, and ham steak, and each one was absolutely delicious. They all come with two sides, and I always opt for the dilled lima beans - they're honestly one of the best things I've ever eaten. I also enjoy rotating through the other side options like black-eyed peas, collard greens, side salad, and Brussels sprouts. They do an excellent job with takeout orders, and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. read more

The last time I went, the food didn't seem as fresh as I used to be when it was toucan café, but I had the Moroccan salmon which I always used to get, but it was missing the orange pieces. Hopefully, the next time I go back, it'll be a delicious as I remember. read more

Marley was an excellent, friendly waitress. Large portions, loved the roast with gravy and the sweet potato with pecan butter. My husband enjoyed the banana pudding! The restaurant is in the back past the house. Just a suggestion to paint the ceiling black; it would make the other colors pop. read more

10/10 recommend and will be back many times before I head back to the west coast in a few weeks. We arrived 15 minutes before closing, not realizing they "close" at 8 pm. We were met with friendly greetings, assured it wasn't an issue and seated. Server, Jessica, was as friendly as could be and not the sickly fake kind. She helped us make our menu choices as we were undecided. Good was fresh and quick. The fried catfish was so crispy and flaky, large piece not several small ones, and the porkchop topped with blue cheese was so thick and juicy, cooked perfectly. The sides were . Garlic mashed potatoes, green beans, sweet potato fries, and corn pudding. Dessert... take a look at the photos, they speak for themselves. Homemade and amazing! Watch for next review of the next menu items and I assure you deserts again. read more

Nothing special, food was mediocre, my order was wrong. Very friendly service but I would not come back

You ever had your mouth watering for food ppl raved about and be disappointed. Walked in was greeted warmly, great colors on the wall, read the "home message " was seated. Great so far. Waitress was friendly and warm. Excellent, even if there's no pink lemonade. :( ordered my food... mouth watering...lol. It's here,yes, I'm digging into this potato salad first Nooooooo, dill pickle taste, why ... not happening. Bite of the catfish, noooooo pure salty. Sip my Arnold Palmer mmmmmmmmm tried the potato salad again and catfish yeah this is wrong for my pressure that I don't have. I was scared to try the biscuit and fries but I actually enjoyed that. When my waitress asked " do you need a box" the look I gave her said it all. I paid for my meal,tipped and left. I should've ordered the salmon lol read more

Wow! Traveling I-95 and saw the reviews of this wonderful place for lunch! Definitely worth the distance from the interstate. Had the Moroccan Salmon and the best banana pudding ,since I was a child, for dessert! Our waitress was awesome too read more

Saw this place on Utube channel JOLLY. Stopped in today around 1:30 pm. Overall experience was 3.5 stars. Cucumbers were amazing. Vegetable plate was just barely warm, corn pudding was too thin, brussel sprouts were old ( been cooked and sitting in warmer too long. Fried chicken however was very hot, moist and delicious. Had their FAMOUS banana pudding for dessert. It was hands down the best EVER. It is unique. Will most definitely stop by again to get Banana pudding to go, wouldn't eat there again. Oh and sweet tea was good, right amount of sweet and tea flavor. read more

Sweet Potatoes Kitchen - Roast /Mac & Cheese/apples - Southern Near Me - Savannah, Georgia

Let me just start with not a bad looking building on the outside, but the inside is very dated.. The hostess was nice and polite . She recommended the jerk, chicken and sweet potatoes, which I ordered. And she also said that their biscuits were very delicious.. but to my surprise, my food was not desirable. I was very disappointed in my jerk chicken it lacked flavor and size. It look like three little chicken tenders that they gave me from the kids menu. The biscuit that she raved about. Was dry, cold with no flavor. Sweet potatoes were okay I guess , but that was about it. read more

Oh, how the mighty fall!! This restaurant for many years provided a delicious twist on "meat and three" concept by offering a variety of foods in traditional ways but with a little something extra like an unusual blend of spices or a slightly different ingredient to a staple. But when it changed hands recently, the name remained the same and some items on the menu stayed but the prices went up, the portions became smaller, and that little extra flair was gone. It became MUNDANE. Last night we ate here for the first time in several months. Although we did come early (before 5 pm) we were only a party of four and only one other small party was there. The service was VERY slow despite several servers the few customers. The second thing we noticed was the prices were up at least $2 or more for each entre. Okay, we could forgive that one---prices are just going up. But when the plates arrived, the food looked lonesome on the plates. Each item seemed segregated to a portion of the plate presumably to make the portion appear larger, but in effect it brought attention to the smaller quantity of the food. Under the previous owners, I could count on taking half of my food home to enjoy again, but last night I left food on the plate because there was not enough to take and it lacked the enhancements and proportions that made it worth taking home again. I know it is hard making a living in restaurants, and this was such a good one for simple fare cooked right. I somehow hope you find the right balance to make this place work for you. read more

Local to Savannah now for 3 years and finally made my way here to eat. I've heard good things and also a fan of Man vs Food so I was excited. That slowly faded away as it took almost an hour from walking in to food being served. This was a Tuesday at 1pm so it wasn't slammed busy. The meatloaf was very loose and almost runny and on the small side. The sweet potato was nothing special and also on the small side. I noticed all the plates were to come with a biscuit and my plate didn't have one and I had to ask. So underwhelming and with the long wait I didn't even bother with the banana pudding. I unfortunately won't be returning. read more

Sorry but I don't understand how this restaurant has such a high Yelp rating. I had high hopes going here for lunch but what a disappointment. Service was friendly but kind of slow. I ordered the fried catfish w/potato salad, side salad and biscuit. The potato salad was tasty but a very small portion and the biscuit was the smallest biscuit I've ever seen. The fish, again good, but just one medium size fillet. All for $18.50? I left hungry after spending well over $20 with tax and tip. Not a good value. read more

Sweet Potatoes Kitchen - Good but overpriced for skimpy serving size - Southern Near Me - Savannah, Georgia

Sigh. This place is not good. At least it wasn't good on Memorial Day weekend. Despite being empty they tried sitting us in front of the kitchen. Then they put us at a tiny table against a wall. Our food took forever and was quite sad when it arrived. The catfish po' boy BLT was piss po' small, soggy and missing bacon. The buffalo chicken salad was barely a salad and the chicken was tough as all get out. At least the sangria was good. The waitress took it in stride, apologized and said it'd do better if we came back during the week. Don't think we will. read more
