    I walked in to order to go. It looked like they don't really like it but anyway they agreed to it. The wait was pretty long so I ordered a beer at the bar, then half an hour later my order was handed to me in a plastic bag, even though I saw Client living with a nice Paper bag with their leftovers. when I got the bill I saw that they had a charge for "to go" so I waved the tip and when I got home, I saw that the salad was missing! so honestly, I'm glad I didn't leave any tip and by the way the salmon was very salty, I don't think I will go back over there ever.

    At first glance, we didn't think we would be able to be serviced with the parking lot compeltely full and cars parked around the side of the building. We were pleasantly surprised to be seated immediately. We loved the atmosphere, which felt quant in spite of a huge amount of seating. The food here is absolutely excellent. We tried some delicious fried green tomatoes with a twist as an appetizer. Next, the Steak was melt-in-your-mouth and able to be cut with a fork. The side dishes were tasty and perfectly cooked. For dessert, we ordered some bread pudding which was equally yummy. Very rarely does a meal deliver on all points, but this was an amazing first experience. The awesome food had service to match. Our waitress was both attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. They're doing great things over there in Richmond Hill: an area where they could easily be mediocre and still successful as the only game in town. They don't skimp, and do a fantastic job. Don't get scared away but the premium steak option prices. We were able to find some real gems that were affordable and equally memorable. Give them a try!

    The ambiance and service was exceptional.. really good food. This will be my go to spot on my rap trips up and down the coast. Jeremy was my server, he did a great job.

    Been a long time since we were here so thought I would update the review Started with French onion soup. Amazing. The depth of flavor was so nice. Then I had the crusted halibut on risotto. So good and perfectly cooked. They have some great cooks here. Deb got the surf and turf special. Filet and scallops. All cooked so well. Steak cut like butter. Just an amazing place. Service and atmosphere are so nice. Haley took good care of us.

    I was excited to try this restaurant, as we are in town for our one year wedding anniversary. Unfortunately, the only good thing was the ambiance and the dirty martini. Our waiter ignored our existence, didn't bother telling us any of the specials, walked away from the table when we were trying to order more drinks, and took my empty glass without asking if I wanted anything else, resulting in me having nothing to drink with dinner. The meatloaf was overly salty and the steak and mushrooms seemed like it was flavored with only black pepper. I was so hopeful, but sadly, incredibly disappointed.

    Really solid steak house on the outskirts of Savannah. They have a nice southern ambiance and it's perfect for a nice night out. Service was great, they came by at the right frequency. Really liked the fried green tomatoes as the appetizer. I also got the wet aged bone in strip steak. My steak was perfectly seasoned, just the exact amount of saltiness that I like and it was a good sized portion for the price. It chose the green beans and potatoes as my sides. Good complements to the steak and the green beans were very light. Really enjoyed it!

    Casual Dining at best. Services is excellent. Food was delicious and the beverages great.

    One of my favorite places to eat in southeast Georgia. Every time I come here I tell myself I'm going to try something different and I always end up ordering my favorite the porterhouse pork chop and a side order of mac & cheese. I've also had the steak rolls and onion rings for apps. They are both delicious. The hubby had had different steaks, strip, ribeye, and had enjoyed them all. And the mil loves the salad and steak and mushrooms.

    The food here was incredible...The restaurant is situated off the interstate and easy to get to. It's in an area you wouldn't expect to have a fine dining establishment. But upon entering, the restaurant gives a welcoming feeling and is family friendly...the food is the best we have had in Richmond Hill, hands down. We have passed this place so many times. And now we will be making this a regular stop!

The staff that greeted us was very nice and accommodating with our reservation and the time moved quickly to get us seated. The place and the kitchen were extra busy to be expected...The problem I have was with the service... if you have read any of my reviews it has to be rough ..because I am service team defender #1. She made several apologies ...understood... BUT... and this is my problem especially if you have worked on tips and it's not a normal service day... even if the kitchen is backed up - at least keep the contact with your table, water glass and coffee cup filled.. and before we start to defend the service she had 3 tables at the most and we had to ask several times IF we even saw her on the floor... for coffee or water. At times she would just walk by and not even make an attempt to check. Look I get it and I'm not here to bash but when you are spending $$ the wait is easier if you have a full drink and some interaction with the staff. (I don't need to be baby sat) Here's what hurts... we have frequented ABE for over 10 years starting in PCB. After an hour of sitting, the food finally rolled out. The beignets were doughy on the inside. The crab cake Benedict was soggy... the potato's were lukewarm, the grits were good not going to beat everything up and when we could get coffee it was great... I watched her other tables (because I had Plenty of time while staying engaged with my people) and it was obvious they were having the same experience. OK the bail out... will we go back "yes" probably not on a holiday... LOL. It could have been a bad day for her... it could be she's new.. based on their standards... overall for me it was disappointing and not the best experience... what's redeeming is when the mother of your children is gracious and forgiving...

    My friend and I went to The Toasted Yolk on the recommendation of my sister-in-law. We went on a…read morevery busy Sunday morning! The parking lot was so full! But we did not let that deter us and we went in and used the electronic device to get us on a waiting list. We were told 15 minutes, but we waited no more than 10. I am going to take into consideration the massive crowd, and say that our food and drink came in very reasonable time considering. We were not in a hurry, and kind of enjoy the bustle and the people. Our waitress was exceedingly friendly, very helpful and very accommodating. My friend and I each got a fancy Sunday brunch cocktail. Mine was strawberry, and it was delicious. She loved hers as well, she got the grapefruit one. They were lovely to look at and delicious and refreshing. A very fun way to start our Sunday morning. We both ordered the California club sandwich and I asked for gluten-free bread. The sandwich was delicious and the gluten-free bread was good. If you know about gluten-free bread and the heartache of searching for a decent slice, then you'll appreciate this bread on your sandwich. I got french fries which seems I have to order every single time even as I contemplate the healthier side choices. They were great, hot, fresh, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. My friend got a side salad which she was happy with, obviously far more willpower than I have. She was not happy with the dressing she had chosen and the waitress happily brought her a different one. While we were there, I noticed everybody was working so hard and the customers all around us seem to be very much enjoying themselves. I don't know if this should really be relevant in my review but there was a group of four people who were sat down in a table nearby who upon being seated asked the waitress immediately if they could get their food quickly and she told them that it probably would not be as fast as they would like it. At which point they got up and left. The waitress seemed to feel bad about that, but when the manager came over to investigate, he simply took it in stride and then started to clean the table off for the next group. My friend and I had to wonder who would come into such a bustling and packed restaurant and think that they were going to get served especially fast. Another thing about we noticed about the manager is that he seemed very much hands-on and all over the place in the restaurant. He was very friendly when we looked at the check-in device and wondered what we were doing ~ he made jokes that made us feel less Luddite like. He bussed tables and sat people, and checked on things, and generally looked like the kind of manager of that Gordon Ramsay would appreciate. The menu has something for everybody! And some very exciting options that we have to go back and experience. Lots of add-ons for everything, a huge variety of choices. My sister-in-law had recommended the avocado toast, and I was tempted. I was also tempted by the biscuit and gravy and the eggs Benedict, which are hard for me to resist at brunch. but I reasonably only ordered one meal for me. It's been a long review, but I have to say the meal really was that good and the whole experience was very enjoyable. Not only will I be going back but, I will be recommending it, wholeheartedly, to everybody. Thanks for a great meal!
