Absolutely delightful from start to finish. We arrived a little early and did a wine tour with Mike, the GM. He gave us great insight into their wine program, storage, and about the restaurant itself. We then settled into a table upstairs ordered a white rioja off the extensive (and fun) wine list. I got the chef’s tasting menu with the mushroom bruschetta and the short rib ravioli - all delicious. My husband got the fried portobello that came with a fried rice and Brussels sprouts which had great flavor. Would highly recommend for a low key but top notch dinner when in Savannah.
