"Housed in a former 1930s-era grocery store, Culberson notes this Savannah staple is “Southern with a twist.” Spearheaded by Chef Andrew Brochu, who helped guide Chicago’s Roister to a Michelin star, this unfussy, uncomplicated spot offers fan-favorite classics like fried chicken, oysters, and wings. For a unique experience, attend the Sour Hour on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 5–6 p.m. for pickled apps and inventive briny cocktails." - Karen Norian
"Brochu’s Family Tradition offers a fun, no-frills dining experience with dishes like a whole chicken dinner, featuring fried thighs brined in chamomile tea." - Caroline Hatchett
"Brochu’s Family Tradition simply describes its fare as fried chicken and fancy seafood. Dishes include a whole fried chicken with biscuits and pickles, oysters served seven ways, salads, and creative snacks (try the cheddar rillette with puffy bread at least once). The restaurant’s flavors are served in homes throughout the Lowcountry, but here, they come with unique details from ex-Alinea Group chef Andrew Brochu. Walk-ins are welcome, but with this restaurant’s popularity, reservations are encouraged." - Elizabeth Bowers
"Hathcock has been doing butchery work for Brochu’s (2400 Bull Street) while developing other culinary endeavors." - Erin Perkins
"A family-run restaurant with a chef who moved from Chicago to Savannah during the pandemic. The restaurant emphasizes family and friends in its operations, creating a welcoming atmosphere where diners feel cared for. The food is amazing, and the overall experience leaves a lasting impression."
