    Chicken and waffles
    Reixa C.

    9/20/2025 - Party of 4. No reservations. We were told about 20 minutes. We walked upstairs to their rooftop bar and patio. Our waiter was excellent, very friendly and polite. We had 3 sangrias, and a rosemary sweet tea. We received a text that our table was ready so we cashed out upstairs . We sat and looked over the food menu. Our server, Juliana came out and greeted us. We told her we needed a few minutes to look over the menu. She was gone for quite sometime. After she came back, I ordered chicken and waffles and my friend ordered a quiche. We did not see our server for the longest time, I got up and ordered two sangrias from the bartender. She told me "I don't like taking money from the servers, I'll find out who the server is and I'll send them over" which I thought was odd. I wasn't going to open a separate check. I was just having her make the drinks for us and putting them under our tab. Our food arrived, The waffle had no taste and was overcooked. The chicken tenders were ok. They gave us a small container of syrup. The plate was so plain. I had a taste of the quiche and it just tasted store bought, very bland. The server finally shows up and tells us the sangrias are coming. We finished our meal. The drinks were brought by someone else. We told her we were done with our meal and we did not want them. Our check was brought by someone else. Basically our table was forgotten. Absolutely the worst brunch. Both food and service. DO NOT RECOMMEND. It is not worth the hype at all!!!!

    We stopped here while shopping and regret it. We were so hopeful that it would be good since it had a cute rooftop. However, were so disappointed. The place is dirty. There is mold on the bathroom ceiling, the floors had food all over them, the walls are super scuffed up, and the floors were sticky. The food... well, the guacamole was completely brown, the salsa looked like it had sat out for days, and the pineapple on our drinks had mold on it. Therefore, we didn't end up eating the chips and salsa or the drinks. Therefore chicken and fries were decent and the waitress was kind. However, we would not recommend going here.

    Rooftop bar

    Found the Grove while exploring Savannah on a Monday before work meetings. We found the rooftop and were the only customers which made the experience more pleasant. We initially sat out on the patio but it started to rain so we moved inside. Drinks and food was all good, and our server/bartender was friendly and gave us some tips on places we could visit during our trip. I would go back if I lived here, a nice causal spot downtown with a nice view and cozy ambiance.

    Waffle, potatoes, chicken sausage

    We made a reservation for brunch which didn't seem necessary once we were in there but we also got there right when it opened. They wouldn't seat me until my husband was also there, which was annoying given the fact that no one else was even here. Service was fine, she did the deed well. This seemed like a cute spot for you to come with your girlfriends and do brunch, very bright and simple...Martha Stewart's vineyard vibes. Everything was done very well, the waffle and potatoes were delish. My husband said the breakfast sandwich was good too!

    A great place to sit on the rooftop on a nice night! The rooftop menu had just what we were looking to eat for dinner. The waitstaff also frequently checked in with us throughout our experience.

    Yes, we were a large group, but we also had orders in BEFORE we got to the location. Even with that, the wait was painful. The MAHI TACOS - Three wild-caught mahi tacos drizzled in a brown sugar jerk sauce, topped with a pineapple relish and cilantro lime cream sauce were actually decent enough to make for a two-star review rather than a one.

    I've been to The Grove in Savannah many times and usually have a great experience, which is why this visit was so disappointing. We went to the rooftop on Sunday when it wasn't busy. It took about 20 minutes for our server to greet us, which we didn't mind. However, his attitude immediately stood out. He was dismissive, rude in tone, and REPEATEDLY walked away mid-sentence while we were speaking. After checking our IDs, his demeanor noticeably shifted. We are of legal drinking age, but it felt like we were treated differently because we were younger. As someone who is ServSafe Manager certified and has worked in the service industry for years, I know how important guest interaction and basic courtesy are. This was not handled appropriately at all. He carried himself as if he were running the place, which felt very off-putting given how we were being treated. He was the oldest server working on the rooftop, so it was very clear who he was. After checking our IDS, His demeanor made us feel uncomfortable and unwelcome, which is not something we've ever experienced here before. We've always enjoyed coming to The Grove, so this was surprising and disappointing. I hope this was just a one-off experience and not reflective of their usual standard. wouldn't mind paying $16 for a drink if the service was at least halfway decent...

    Pink Parody

    A beautiful rooftop. Terrible drinks - we ordered the Rosemary Sweet Tea and 2 Pink Parodies. Both drinks were not good. The atmosphere was fine. Weather was perfect. Service wasn't bad, they were busy. We left as quickly as possible.

    Charcuterie board

    I ordered the charcuterie board and Cajun Angels to go. The Cajun Angels were delicious and definitely the highlight of the meal. Unfortunately, the charcuterie board was extremely disappointing, especially for the price. At over $27, I expected an actual assortment of cheeses, but instead I received what were essentially large pieces of cheese rind with very little edible cheese. There was also no fruit, nuts, or other accompaniments that are typically included on a charcuterie board--just a few slices of meat, bread, and dipping sauces. It felt incomplete and nowhere near worth the cost.

    Rooftop hoppin!! We came to check out the view and grab a few cocktails as we enjoyed Savannah during a recent trip. Kept it simple with a Don Julio Reposado and a Ketel One lime and tonic to refresh us. Alejandro at the bar was friendly and great and the vibe on the actual rooftop was chill. Convinced us to also try the summer Capri pouches which were refreshing and gave a great buzz. We didn't do food, but when you enter from the main entrance, lots of people were grabbing lunch. We even stopped by a bit later to see what the evening was like and it stayed busy with traffic so assuming the traditional menu of food was good.

    Stopped in at The Grove on a Saturday afternoon to watch March Madness. Great set up with a nice bar in front of a large screen TV. Very friendly service! Great stop!

    Cool place. Service wasn't great from the start. Also, ordered a $8 mocktail and added a shot of casamigos which equaled $23 (no itemized receipt). That's fine but, my drink had a bug in it as soon as I sat down. When I showed the bartender & asked if I could have a new one, she said it was the risk of sitting outside? (I was holding the drink the entire time so it was pretty obviously in the pineapple juice can or something.) For $23, kinda wild. *Edited to add stars* manager and downstairs staff were great & made me a complementary to go drink!

    great good, super cute! fun cocktails and food was very delicious. i would definitely go back and recommend it! the rooftop was super cute too

    Good for kids?

    I don't think so, especially not at dinner. It's more of a bar with food and loud music than a restaurant.

    How are they handling COVID-19?

    The staff is wearing masks and their tables are cleaned after each group of customers. Their downstairs is spaced apart already so feel they have decent separation. Upstairs bar is spaced apart as well and feel you will feel safe there

    Is it pet friendly?

    I didn't SEE any outdoor seating, so probably not🤷‍♀️best to call and ask it was March when I was there, perhaps they do have outdoor seating in the summer?

    I have been hearing wonderful things about Darling's Oyster Bar since it opened near City Market…read morebut hadn't had a chance to check it out. It's right in the heart of downtown off Congress Street and across from the Rail Pub. There is street parking, but being downtown, it can definitely be limited. I finally stopped in after dinner hours around 7pm on Friday. Since it was date night we ordered the raw tower, which comes stacked with everything under the sun: oysters, shrimp, snow crab, lobster and mussels. I also ordered scallops and asked if it could be prepared without butter because of my dairy allergy. The kitchen has no problem making them with olive oil instead. Super delicious! I enjoyed it so much that I came back the following weekend with friends. I made reservations online during happy hour (4-6pm) and we were lucky enough to be seated in the small back dining room tucked away behind the bar. Our server was wonderful and very attentive, and I especially appreciated that she actually paid attention to the allergy notes I included with my reservations. Of course we all ordered a dozen oysters each because they're $1 during happy hour and who can beat that? I ordered the scallops again because I liked them so much the first time, and around the table we had a mixture of lobster, mussels, dressed oysters, turtle cheesecake, finishing everything off with espresso martinis. Hands down delicious. The service was top-tier too. Our server never hovered, but somehow always checked on us at just the right time and made sure we had everything we needed. Two great visits so far and I'll absolutely be back to try more of the menu.
