Baobab Lounge

We stopped by Baobab Lounge during our recent trip to Savannah, and it was such a memorable experience! The place has a unique and stunning interior, decorated with African-inspired decor and a warm, inviting ambiance. The combination of brick walls and wildlife-themed accents creates a cozy yet sophisticated vibe that makes it perfect for a night out or a special occasion. The menu offers a great selection of dishes with prices in the $20-30 range, and everything we ordered was beautifully presented and delicious. The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure we felt welcomed throughout our visit. We loved the creative and exotic atmosphere - it’s a perfect spot to try something new and enjoy a fun evening with family and friends. Highly recommended if you’re in Savannah and looking for a unique dining experience that blends culture and style.

Strolling River Street after a sunset cruise, we were looking for a spot to dine for a late dinner. I am so glad we spotted Baobab. To enter, you must first walk down a short flight of stairs. There I saw the most beautiful tribal African statues. Immediately when I walked in I began snapping photos. The atmosphere is absolutely stunning! Whoever curated the art did a wonderful job. After admiring the atmosphere, my friend and I grabbed seats at the bar. We enjoyed several small plates including chicken skewers, wings, dried beef and a short rib dish. I thoroughly enjoyed the handmade pita that accompanied the skewers, the pickled vegetables that accompanied the dried meat and the wings which had a delicious peanut flavor that reminded me of a few familiar African dishes. This experience was beautiful and the flavors were delicious.

Nodia was such an amazing host. She took through all the amazing artwork in this spectacular establishment and ensured she explained the history. The food was spectacular. Ambiance 10/10. Strongly recommend and please make sure you tip well. Everyone here is simply amazing !

So glad I came by here walking through the beautiful JW Marriott. This is one of the most unique restaurants I’ve been to in Savannah. When you walk in, there’s this sense of history like you’re going back in time. The paintings, statues and decor was so cool and it gives a sense of place and an ode to African culture. It was hard to pick what to eat but I settled on the Saboob which was delicious! The brisket, with the sauce on the crispy pita accompanied with my tamarind martini was spectacular! It took a bit of time for someone to greet me but once we got there everything else was great. I can’t wait to go back and try more!

Great drinks are here and the price is fine. Just place but quick great service. Didn’t eat so no refuse on that but did see many people with food. Very unique and upscale. Will go back as I can.

My wife stopped in and grabbed a quick drink. The decor is very cool and feels like you are sitting in a african safari lounge. Taxidermy from all over and a unique vibe. I definitely wsnt to go back to try the food and drinks for myself.

Every time we visited Savannah, we passed by. This time, we stopped and had drinks and dessert. A great experience, unique drinks and dessert, in the middle of a unique style from Africa. Just a reminder, Baobab is inside of the Marriott, at the riverfront.

One of the most unique stops on my trip to Savannah. The decor was absolutely original, and the food was amazing. Service was very good even with a packed house.
