    I'm not sure if five stars is enough! From the moment we entered (as soon as they opened!) everything was perfection. We sat at the bar - not for cocktails but because we like sitting at bars. I wasn't sure and asked Simon, our waiter, if the chicken & biscuits was good, he didn't hesitate and totally steered me in the right direction. The biscuits were flaky, with a bit of spicy pimento & crispy bacon to help the sausage gravy & chicken. Sooooo good. Wayne had a veggie scramble with crispy potatoes, veggies, biscuit & gravy. I don't think we will have lunch - too full from a great breakfast.

    AMAZING, per usual! I absolutely love The 5 Spot, the food is always freshly prepared, so flavorful and always compliments one another, the service was pretty good and the staff was friendly and welcoming. I can't wait to come back!

    Went for lunch. Also got the collard and bacon dip but forgot to snap a pic, but it was my favorite. On the po'boy, the shrimp were fried very well, bread toasted nicely, with the tomatoes were whole sliced versus decided, and something was a tad too salty but I don't know if it was the shrimp or the sauce on them. Good fries. Fair prices. Great customer service. Clean restaurant, though it smelled a tad bit like cleaning chemicals. Fast seating with ample parking.

    I've always wanted to try the 5 Spot and I'm so glad we were able to try it today! Located in the Habersham Village- there's a lot of parking available. It wasn't busy for a Saturday afternoon. The employees were all very kind. The hostess didn't bring us a high chair for our toddler, but luckily they were within viewing distance where we could grab one. The restaurant is pretty spacious. The menu has a great mix of different tavern-like foods. We opted for some sandwiches and our toddler got Mac n cheese and the tenders. The food was delicious. We all ate everything off of our plates! I got a margarita and it was $10 for a good-sized drink. For a family of 3 we spent about $60 with tip. Final Verdict: I do think we will be back! They seem to have a lot of happy hour deals and the brunch plates look like a good deal!

    I returned to this restaurant 5 years later when back in the area and was disappointed in the changes to service, flavor & cost. I couldn't get over that a simple meal like low country shrimp & grits was $20. I chose the fried green tomatoes appetizer for my meal at about $14. While it was a crunchy crust, it hit the flavor of the tomatoe slices. The menu did not note that the "remoulade" was "nose-running spicy". I also chose a blueberry bread pudding, filled with blueberries and flavorful under a nice vanilla ice cream. It was not evenly warm tho, with cold spots. The biggest disappointment was the ten minutes it took to get service and a simple glass of water. There were ample (3) servers socializing in the small register area, and 2 socializing at the hostess stand, it just didn't seem anyone was there to work. the place was relatively empty at a meal time. Maybe others noticed the failings in service, taste and cost this time too.

    I was surprised to see how low the rating was. I've only been here once but the service was great, we didn't have to wait long, and the shrimp and grits were very good! We got the parm Brussel sprouts for an appetizer which i would definitely order again

    The food was great, and came out quickly. Bonus, they have delicious ranch. We were there for lunch around noon. I like the calm day time ambiance of the restaurant and imagine it's a little more hectic in the evenings. The service was good as well, kind welcome and friendly service.

    Yep. He huungry again. Food- amazing. Love and miss this place but visit it almost every time I'm in over from the Boro. Oh and happy hour 4-6 M-F with five amazing drinks that are twofer one! Service- great wait staff and some of the best and friendliest bartenders in town. Ambiance- huge upgrade from the old breakfast place. And they've updated recently including barstools , chairs n HVAC. Thank you! And I'm friendly with many of their staff. Please please hurry up and get one in Statesboro!

    Avoid the French Onion soup, it's way too salty and there is no excuse for using Provolone in place of Gruyere cheese.

The brunch menu is fairly…read moreextensive, so we had some difficulty choosing what to order....but definitely come hungry because the portions are large and the food is pretty rich. To share amongst the table, we ordered the cinnamon toast banane and crispy gouda grit croquettes. Thumbs up on both, particularly the croquettes which were the right balance of gooey and structured enough to eat with the delicious sauce on the side. The cinnamon toast banane was not so much toast as cinnamon rolls with bananas foster; the cinnamon rolls were really tasty and the bananas foster was good, though the bourbon flavor was strong. For my entree, I ordered one of the lighter vegetarian dishes - the mushroom tartine with tomato soup. I think it is one of the lighter dishes - certainly lighter than what my dining companions ordered - but it was still quite rich with a fair amount of gouda fondue in the tomato bisque soup. The mushroom tartine/sandwich was really flavorful with the pesto, cheese and tons of mushrooms. The restaurant is quite large with an upstairs seating area.

However, the lady at the front was not welcoming to us with our children. She said upfront that there are no kid menus, high chairs and strollers had to be placed elsewhere.

I would understand if this was a fine dining upscale restaurant that was quiet but the ambiance was very ordinary. There was regular restaurant noise and people dressed casually. If you are going to advertise your establishment as "good for kids" please consider the way you are talking to families who want to dine here.

It reminds me a bit of the Goblin Market in Mount Dora, only not as busy with the decor. Service is top notch and I believe reservations are required, although I'd HIGHKY recommend reserving in advance either way. We reserved the night prior and only 9pm was available, which is way later than we usually eat. Anyway, we ordered the she crab soup, shrimp and grits, corn bread fried oysters, sweet potato ravioli, and the chef's fried chicken. Our favorite was the Shrimp and grits, but really every bite of every dish was amazing. After the horrendous meal we had earlier at the River House, it was truly a delight to have my already high expectations for Olde Pink House not just met, but blown away! I'd give 10 stars if I could!

Been here for both dinner and lunch. All this said, I think my approach to this review is comprehensive. With regard to food, I think they have a decent (not expansive) selection of food, which I think lends itself to quality. They do most things really well. This said, I do think there is inconsistency based on staff at the restaurant. On one occasion they have accommodated a request, and on another I was denied the exact same request. I found this frustrating. On one occasion I've also seen management talk down to staff here, which is a big no no for me. All people (especially staff) are due respect and this rubbed me the wrong way. This was an isolated incident but it definitely made my dining experience uncomfortable. Especially because I was getting excellent service from the server!!! I've always had quality service from servers here. In the future, I would come to Rhett for convenience as a hotel guest (the hotel is lovely), but would likely not spend my money if I wasn't staying at the hotel. Overall- it's good food, decent ambiance... but there are soooo many good options in Savannah. You have to be exceptional to stand out in that city.
