    Rakeem was amazing. So pleasant and really shared his insights on the menu. He was wonderful. We took some attitude at reception. I am a repeat customer and made this reservation 2 weeks ago. Nonetheless, we were moved from a tall top in the middle of the bar to a table next to the server station where it seemed to be a dead zone. It was a let down considering my guests were in from of out of state and the the hostess had no interest in hearing my concern. She basically said - make your own fun. Nonetheless. Great food. Amazing server. Will sit at the bar if I ever come back again.

    So what can I say it was a great experience. I want to say my server went above and beyond to make it a special occasion. My order was incorrect which happens and it may have been my fault but she was so nice and accommodating that I was so impressed.

    Great experience! First time to Savannah and chose the Pirates house because of the history and the menu was right up my alley. The waiter was friendly, food was delicious (lots of awesome seafood choices). Crab cake was one of the best I've had and I'm a foodie and seafood lover! When we come back into town, we would definitely come here again. Thanks for a great dinner!

    We had the most amazing dinner here. My husband had the pork chop with brussel sprouts and adored the sauce. I had the salmon with the beans and loved how perfectly cooked and flavorful everything was. We also had cocktails that we loved and to top it off the performer was amazing. It was a lovely evening and the next time we are in Savannah we will definitely be back.
