8 Best Seafood Restaurants in Savannah

"Shabazz boasts “fish so fresh it was swimming in the ocean just last night,” which ends up in dishes that keep regulars coming back, including a fried fish sandwich that some believe is the best in town. Other options include fried shrimp and fried whiting baskets, which come with french fries and juice, and the Yasmin Crab Sandwich: a baked patty with lettuce and special sauce. For dessert? Bean pie." - Sam Worley

Got the Shabazz Fish Sandwich Supreme with cheese. It was ok. They used regular bread and it had stuck to the fish.

I am writing to express my extreme disappointment with my recent experience at your restaurant. I ordered a shrimp dinner, which I have had multiple times before, and instead received a fish dish. As I do not eat fish, this was a significant issue. When I contacted the restaurant, I was met with defensiveness and a refusal to acknowledge the mistake. I was told that "they know what I was supposed to receive" and that they would not argue with me. This dismissive and argumentative response was unacceptable. I have dined at your restaurant several times and have never encountered such poor customer service. I am deeply saddened by this experience, as I have supported your business in the past. I simply requested a remake of my order, which I believe was a reasonable request given the circumstances.

After hearing the hype of the establishment having the best fish sandwich in town, I decided to try it. It wasn’t horrible however I will not be back. Was it the best fish sandwich I ever had? Definitely not. However, it is the only fish sandwich I had with bones in the fish. Once I noticed I could not eat any more. Fries were just okay & the drink was watered down.

I will not revisit this establishment simply because they were not open on the times posted. I visited on 1/3/25. The hours stated on google that they would be open at 12 pm. We arrived at 11:30 and waited. At 12, the owner and staff were no where to be found. At this point there is a line... 12:30, the place still was not open. We took our money elsewhere. Black owned businesses make it hard to support them when they don't have a clue on how to run a business. So much money left that day and I'm sure they don't care and still have an attitude. They should've never had this place on Fresh Fried and Crispy. Read the negative reviews, they're definitely true.

I’ve driven past this restaurant many times throughout the years but after seeing it on an episode of Netflix’s Fresh Fried and Crispy, I decided to finally stop by. I ordered the combination dinner with shrimp and fish. It was insanely delicious! I definitely plan on coming back! It was too hot to eat outside so I ate in my car. Very friendly people!

I rarely leave negative reviews, but unfortunately, I have to be honest with my followers. I recently ordered a fish and shrimp plate, and it was extremely disappointing. I could barely eat 10% of it—the food tasted frozen and pre-cooked, lacking any freshness or flavor. Surprisingly, the best part of the meal was the tartar sauce. While the portions were generous, the taste simply didn’t match up, especially in a city like Savannah, known for its fresh seafood. The price was reasonable at around $24–$25, but as the saying goes, you get what you pay for. Honestly, I would have been better off chewing my tongue. Given how many times this restaurant was recommended to me, I expected much better. Unfortunately, I have to give it a 0/10. Sorry, Shabazz, but I have to keep it real with my followers.

Delicious fish sandwiches. Fries were crispy and seasoned well. The shabazz juice was just what we needed in the heat.

Supreme Fish Sandwich combo was very good including the fried and juice. Sandwich is really big and had lots of fish on it!!

Best fish sandwich in town! And they got a "A" health score. For the price and quality, you can't beat it.

I got the Yasmin combo, soggiest sandwich I've ever had. Lots of mayo, not enough crab. I think it was breaded? But can't really tell because it was mush. On I toasted wheat bread so it was just even mushier. Fries were really great. Seasoned well and perfect crisp. Malika juice tasted like a cheap fruit punch

After watching Daym Drops' review of this spot I had to drop in and check it myself. My wife and I ordered the Shabazz Combination Dinner with fish and fried shrimp. Let me start by saying the service was fast and friendly, but let's get straight into the food portion of the review. The fish was just ok. It wasn't seasoned as I like and the breading was too soft, meaning it wasn't fried for the long. I usually like a little crunch on the exterior, but I suppose that's not what Shabazz does, or maybe I should have told him to fry it a little longer for that crunch. I also wasn't getting fresh as the advertising states. The shrimp was also ok, but like the fish, wasn't seasoned well. I wish they had an option between wheat and white bread. I know I'm being picky on this, but most fish spots or fish frys you go to serve up white bread. The French fries had zero seasoning on it. Salt, seasoning salt, or Old Bay would go a long way to make those fries pop. The fries were also soft. No crunch on the exterior. It was like they were baptized in oil and brought back up. We seriously have to do better on those fries. Salad was basic, crunchy iceberg and and two grape tomatoes. I wanted to love this place as I patronize black businesses everywhere I travel, but I felt let down after Daym's great review on Fresh, Fried and Crispy.

Their dept of health score is posted and every year it's 90+. The food is fresh and amazing. The staff are so pleasant. I went twice in one day this weekend and when I returned they remembered my name! Have to get the punch it's so good and not too sweet it's perfect! It's a Savannah jem

Disappointed may have been because it wasn't busy so good wasn't moving but it wasn't at all what I saw on television. Great seasoning though. Will have to give it another try when we travel to Savannah again.

Well came here once a year ago and it was so good. We planned on traveling back just so we can have it again. We came 4 times one different days and it wasn't opened on the scheduled time. Veryyyyy disappointing.

I have seen this place mini mini times, but had yet to stop again. Another coworker wanted to go eat lunch normally I don't go anywhere to eat lunch so she wanted fried fish. We went to Shabazz seafood restaurant I think the sandwich itself and all the ingredients was good I didn't care for the french fries. They came with the Shabazz Fish Supreme but overall it was good. The juice I drink was a little too sweet for my liking a half of that I will go back and try theYasmin Crab Sandwich on my next return. The service was quick and efficient the ambiance was okay, we got to sit outside while we were going on my food which was nice. I'm glad it wasn't raining or too hot but this is a place that I can see myself going back to again.

Saw this place featured on a Netflix show and came for lunch during my visit to Savannah. Food is cooked to order so there was a short wait...I ordered the fish and shrimp combo. The shrimp was bomb! The fish was ok. I also ordered the Malika juice which is was just red Kool aid lol, too much sugar for me. I would come back whenever I'm in Savannah for the fried shrimp.

Saw this establishment on Fresh, Fried and Crispy on Netflix so I had to stop by and try the food. The Shabazz Fish Supreme Combo was ridiculously good. The side of fries was nice and fresh and the punch was very good. The customer service was very nice, the owner even gave my daughter an ice cream cone . The exterior of the building really gives the small local business appeal. With how busy it was though, it would make more sense if they open up a second window for pickup while the other window can be for orders.

place has been here I know ever since I came to savannah over 10 years ago and never came because it looked small and hard to get to. from what I see all that is still true for my first visit. I would wish they would relocate but who am I to say. anyway I first pulled in and couldn't park because the parking isn't controlled and ppl parked crazy. service is slow and u have to scream thru a small box to place ur order.. as so far as the food I'm still wondering what salaam beef means and Malika means for the juice. food quality is good not great. burger served on regular wheat bread. food not seasoned like I thought should fish should be. I saw this restaurant on Netflix and had to try it.

I had previously seen this place on a Netflix show, Fresh, Fried, and Crispy. The food looked really good and the host gave it a really good talk up. So on a family trip my husband and I stopped in to support a local, small business. What a mistake. We ordered the Supreme Fish Sandwich combo, it came with fries and a drink for their advertised price of $8.50, posted right on their sign, at the ordering window. My husband took a $10 and when he went to pay it was more than that. When I asked to verify the order to make sure we were on the same page the cashier rang us up for each individual item. It was corrected, and we paid. There were (3) others behind us, so we stepped aside and they all ordered and received their food before ours. I didn't think anything of it at all, though the interaction with the cashier still wasn't sitting right with me. As I was going back to the window, ironically my food was coming out at the same time (it was cooked after everyone else's -- all they serve is fish, so my fish sandwich should've taken (2) minutes or less) I heard the woman in the back tell the cashier it was the order for "the white b!tch". My husband (Colombian and African) and I (a white b!tch) are from Miami and we're disgusted by the racism, from a *very* proud black owned business. Coming from out of town to show support. AFTER our experience of being over charged -- which now made sense, and disrespectful behavior, I was curious to see other reviews. Wouldn't you know, others have experienced racism from employees here as well. My recommendation to the owner with his own personally designated parking spot to the right of the Shabazz hut with only (3) other spots in the gravel lot; * Correct all spelling on your signage. * Over charging leaves a foul taste -- worse than your food. * Racism will get you a Yelp review for other "white b!tches" with their mixed families to see. * If your staff continually serves up poor service according to color, you'll stop seeing green. 0/10 even rating the food unbiased to the racism. * The Malika juice is advertised as fresh fruit juices, and it's literally the same red Kool-Aid I drank growing up. It was 0% fresh fruit and 100% artificial. But maybe that's just what they serve the white folks.

Shabazz slaps! Super local joint, very friendly and most important, very delicious! I got the 3 piece dinner and they crushed it. If you ever need some down to earth good food on the go this is the spot for you. Fish was fried to a crisp and went down so well. No need to plan ahead for it, just pull up, order and you'll be pleased very soon. Definitely have to stop by and see for yourself!

My husband wanted to visit this restaurant because he saw it on Netflix. And the guy on Netflix did a great job making it seem as if this were the place to eat! The first thing my husband said was it looked cleaner on tv. I told him I'm sure it did because they prolly cleaned it up for tv. Anywho, the food was very expensive to me for the amount of food that you get. My son and I ordered fried shrimp dinner and for the price I thought we would've gotten jumbo shrimp. The shrimp was very small. My daughter ordered the sandwich that we saw on tv. It was actually pretty good. My husband got the fish dinner. He seemed to enjoy it. All of us ordered fries and all of our fries were cold. Ummm I'm not sure that I'd eat here again after traveling from Atlanta. I would hope that because it was on Netflix that the business would do a better job of making sure customers receive the experience that we saw on tv.

We decided to try Shabazz after seeing it in the Netflix show. The host did a good job hyping it up However, I should have read the reviews. We got jumbo fish sandwiches with fries and juice. We also ordered a whole bean pie for delivery at our hotel. The fish was average in taste bordering on overcooked. Of course the fries were cold, but expected because of delivery. We did not get a whole pie for $13, but a slice. I tried several times to call the Carryout several times so I can get a refund at least for the error. No answer

My review is based off their customer service. I'm from Philly on vacation so maybe this is normal down here. If so, I apologize. Ordered my food for PICKUP via postmates. Sat in the car right outside the restaurant for 20 mins while my order was "being prepared." I go to check on my order at the time they said it would be ready and I'm the 6th person in line after learning they do not have a designated place for pickups. Ordering, paying and picking up all out the same 1 window. 30 mins later, I finally get to the front and I hear "Please wait" as she gives out the orders of the last 2 people before me. I give them my info and tell them it's a pickup order. They ask me to get my phone so they can see the order. I volunteer to tell them the order but they insist I go get my phone from the car. I come back and they are TAKING THE ORDER OF THE CUSTOMER BEHIND ME. At this point, I realized this place did not deserve my money so I canceled the order and ended up getting free food. The fish sandwich was good. I've made better and had better fish hoagies back home but for free while on vacation.... at least it wasn't wasted calories ‍

We were visiting Savannah and I was looking for somewhere local to eat a light late lunch. I pulled this spot up and I was not disappointed. The lady who took my order was friendly and answered each question I had regarding the menu. They have fresh crab, fish, and shrimp options and dinner plates. I ordered the shrimp plate which came with 16 large shrimp, fries, whole wheat bread, and tossed salad. It also included a "Shabazz" sauce which my husband said was good. I don't like mayo and thought it may be mayo based, so I did not try. The food was hot and fresh.We also ordered the Shabazz juice, which I felt was pricey for size, but had an okay flavor. Food Came out very quickly (maybe 5 minutes max). This was a Saturday afternoon around 3pm. We will definitely be back to try the crab cake burger when in Savannah. My suggestion would be to break down what items are on the menu so the customer doesn't have to keep asking what items are when it's their turn to order. Overall a good experience

I saw this restaurant on Fresh, Fried and Crispy and I wanted to try it. I'm from Chicago and since my visit here I have been underwhelmed with a lot of the food. We came around 2pm and it wasn't busy. I ordered the fish sandwich meal and it didn't disappoint. It reminds me of a place in Chicago called Dock's. I was really happy that it came with some red kool-aid. If it wasn't kool-aid it tasted like it. My only complaint was the I didn't have enough drink to wash it down.

I was pleasantly surprised to find this localized hole in the wall open. I've been here on a few occasions and the doors remained closed. Today was my lucky day. When I arrived I couldn't tell if they were open however. There were two local women looking at the pOsted wall menu. I was a little taken back because tHe ONLY fIsh they sell was whiting. Out of all the fish that swim, they had no perch, no flounder, no trout, no cod just plain ol whiting... there may have been a shrimp selection on the menu.. I ordered the fish. 10 bucks got you plenty oh fish, fries and a iceberg salad. They were out of hot sauce.. got my to go container and glanced at the fish that was sealed in a to go bag in styrofoam. Presentation was simply ok. It had a corn flour base to coating. It was really nothing that would warrant my come back. You had to order through a window that you could nnot see the person taking your money unless you squint your eyes. The food came out of a tin contraption that tHey had to lower the food into- ghetto fab style. Look like the glass was impact proof you had to place your head down to the tin contraptions opening to carry a conversation to the person takinG your order. So much on representing Savannah- I hope they continue to grow and add more variety to their menu

Anytime you got a lot people hanging out at a food restaurant just as they are opening is worth stopping to check it out. Shabazz was definitely worth stopping for. The fish and shrimp was very fresh and the seasoning on the French fries was very good. Make sure to try their famous Shabazz Juice... Sooo good!!!

Let me start by saying this. I 100% try my absolute best to support black owned businesses. The owners of this establishment, from what I understand, are pillars of the community and perhaps this review will be an eye opener to what I have experienced 3x at Shabazz. My most recent experience happened only 15 minutes ago. I called Shabazz to place a Togo order and was left on hold for 38 MIN. I could hear everything that was taking place at the restaurant yet NOONE ever picked back up the phone to ask me what I wanted to order. I was on hold so long that I stopped at Popeyes to get food because NOONE at Shabazz would pick up the phone. I decided to leave it on hold to see how long it would take for them to say something. After 38 min, I gave up. To put this in perspective anyone else who called during that time would have gone unanswered as well!! I saw this business on Netflix and decided to patronize because of the history however on my first visit, they were completely disorganized with how they were taking orders and cashing ppl out and the wait was horrendous! The second time I arrived at 11:45am on a Saturday only to find them just arriving and taking supplies in to the restaurant, they told me they open at 12pm??? Like why? What lunch restaurant opens at 12 noon??? I will NEVER go to Shabazz again because clearly they don't value their customers AT ALL! I own a travel business and ppl are always asking me where to go in Savannah, no matter what great advice I give my clients and friends, I will be sure to tell them about the lack of respect and common decency Shabazz shows it customers!!!!! Unreal. I've added a screenshot to show the time of day I called and the amount of time I was on hold. Btw I called the other number listed on your profile in Google and it was consistently busy today as well. Seems like this is something that is the norm at Shabazz??? Id love to hear from management about this but we'll see if I even get so much as an apology for their lack of customer service

Visiting Savannah and came across this local staple in the community. I heard about it after seeing it on netflix. The shrimp and bean pie were the highlights. The bean pie was hands down the best I ever had. Crispy brown pie crust, hot out the oven with a custard filling. The breading on the shrimp was full of flavors and seasoned well. Also had their crab cake and fried fish. Im not really a fish person but everything was really good.

Food was good and seasoned well. My wife and I had the dinner plates but I will definitely be trying the fish sandwich next time.

While the outside appeared questionable, the lightly breaded shrimp and fries were delicious! I would recommend ordering the food to go and eating in one of Savannah's many park options. Food = 5, Location = 2.

Simple but delicious fish sandwich. Not greasy, breading was light. It was definitely fresh. A very simple road side stand with a few picnic tables. Don't come here for an "experience", come for the fish. We will definitely be back.

If I can give this restaurant a 6 star review, I would !! They define generosity and quality in the food industry. I visited town for the christmas break, and a family member took me to Shabazz for the first time last week for an authentic southern style fish sandwich. Since last week I have been going there three times. They are definitely worth the 20 min drive. The portion is great and the staff are very friendly and guess what, very economic prices!!! I highly recommend you try the gourmet fish sandwich.

There was nothing special about the shrimp plate that I ordered. It came with some iceberg lettuce and small tomatoes doused in ranch dressing. There were french fries underneath the shrimp. The shrimp had no distinctive flavor or seasoning. I was so disappointed after all the reviews I've heard about this place. The Shabazz juice was only fruit juice mixed up a little bit of pineapple juice. That was nothing special. I could do better at making my own shrimp and fries.

This place has the best fish sandwich ever! I would frequently come here as a teenager every time I would visit Savannah and end up getting two sandwiches at a time. When I found out I was going to Georgia this past week, I knew I had to come again. The sandwich is just as great as I remember it and the staff is wonderful.

i'm over the terrible service...don't care how good the fish sandwich is, or should I say "was" cause that's no longer what it used to be. The so called natural fruit juice also now tastes more like watered down fruit punch. The quality of their product has taken a turn for the worse.

Ok, Shabazz is my go to home spot when I'm back in the S.A V.! I always get the fish Supreme with pickles. No mayo, add mustard and of course a large punch. I usually end my meal with a slice of bean pie or I buy an entire pie to serve to family and friends. Well this time all I wanted was a bean pie to give to my family as many of them had not tried a bean pie before. Usually the pies are on point and taste great but this time I am very disappointed with the fact we were given a frozen pie by the lady who says she makes the pie. That did not make me happy to find this out after getting home where I was expecting to eat right away. Do you think I could have been told they have no fresh pies on hand but here is a cold frozen pie!! I am so disappointed with this because I have come here for years while at home and since moving to Atlanta. This has thoroughly passed me off and no one will answer the phone when I have called to voice my displeasure. I cannot give a good score here on this visit for this sole reason alone. I would have expected better from a place I have been a loyal customer to for years. Bishop Shabazz sir, this is unacceptable!

If you were thinking about getting a fish sandwich combo at the mcd's nearby then it would be better coming here. They o use actual fish and crab. However, there is not much special about either the fish sandwich or crab sandwich (yasmin). The special sauce is a concoction of mayo, mustard, and cumin. The fries are standard but cooked in old oil. Shabazz juice = high fructose fruit punch that you can find at fast food joints. This is one case where hole is the wall is not pleasantly surprising.

Shabazz is one of my go to's. The supreme sandwich is great and the Maliki shabazz juice is the best. Give it a try I have never been disappointed.

My buddy and I tried Shabazz cause it looked sketchy and fun. Part of us wanted to believe it was going to be a great hole in wall find, but we were disappointed to be served fish on store bought white bread, soaked in mayo, with lettuce and (what I assume was) a melted Kraft single. And their "famous juice" was just ambiguous red sugar water. I had a stomach ache on the way home.

Horrible, food horrible service. The hush puppies where deep fried until black. The fried shrimp was fried way to long and it sat out and say extremely soggy. I'm surprised this is even open. It's gross. It gives southern food a bad name

Foodies are much like cats in that they also fit the feline description of, "Curiosity killed the Foodie." Meaning, we are curious creatures and on some primordial level, we must do, and we must go, where we are driven to eat. So, either this review will scare thee away, or you will be compelled by sheer Foodie carnal curiosity. Especially the latter when I tell you that Shabazz Seafood Restaurant is home to one of Savannah's Top 10 Area Foodie Delicacies. So thustus you mustus. I mean why let a little thing like the owner being the founder of The New Black Panther Party or him one time saying, "there are no good crackers," really bother you? Its been said, he's also the nephew of Malcom X, and really to me, all of those things have made this place irresistible. Trust me, no one has ever given me the evil eye or made me feel unwelcome here. And, isn't funny how there's always a completely charming and uncannily nice wife behind the New Black Panther guy? Yeah, I've always thought that ironic too. I've met the wife a few times, adore her, and other than the restaurant's food, she might be hubby's saving grace. But now I can only imagine what she thought of my complimentary nudges, to get her husband to bring the restaurant more into the tourist sections, or to open another one here in Savannah! She seemed warm and excited by the idea, but something tells me, this Foodie Ghetto Grub Fab joint is always going to be straight up hood. So be it. All I've ever wanted was for the visiting Foodie or local one, to give this place a voyage.Trust me, the one item is reason enough and then everything else about this Foodie Joint, gets high marks for character. Patience reader, I will name this sacred Foodie object momentarily. But first, let's get into history and appearances. At one time, this was the ultimate Foodie Ghetto Grub Fabulous joint because it was seriously in the geeto, and some would still tell you its "fringe" area. Even if but a stone's throw from Savannah's bootyful Historic District. Like 2 seconds from it really. I'm here to tell you, that unless you're a redneck or member of the KKK, you can go here, order, even sit and eat, and never have a problem. When this colorful, wonderful, African looking shack first hit my Foodie eyeballs some 20 years ago, I immediately thought of Jamaica or Africa. Which, one can often find dreadlocks well on display at what is really just a food stand with some picnic tables outside. And yes, Shabazz is advertising Nation of Islam, or good quality, wholesome, Islamic diet type food. So yes, the usual restrictions apply, and so one can expect Vegetarian items. And really, this Foodie Agent has only ever consumed two things here, and one of them, the delicacy, is something that I've even ordered multiple of, when considering a party's dessert fare. Oops, I've hinted. The fried whiting fish, is truly a send of Allah to the tastebuds. Flaky, rich with flavor and may be one of the key items that people flock to this place. Those that enjoy white fish and consider themselves prolific Foodie critics of it, often pay great compliment to what's served here. So to the delicacy friends, and then I'll be done with Shabazz for now. Ready? You sure? Its simply called "Bean Pie." Or as I like to refer to it, "round mouth happiness." Mostly sold by the slice, but also whole pies can be pre-ordered by phone, and to me, it is one of Savannah's Foodie Delicacies, in terms of desserts. But even just on the general, Top 10 List, it hits my radar as one of those classics you have to have to really appreciate what is here and enjoyed in Savannah. So if you have that Foodie Bucket List as it were, you've got to add this one to it. The Bean Pie is really the cousin of pumpkin pie, but a custard made with white or navy beans, and from a flavor stance, its almost indistinguishable from pumpkin pie. But don't get all "Eeewww" on me with the bean thing. I would call it sweeter than pumpkin pie but depends on what you've had. I simply love it from the buttery crust to sensational, sugary core. Its also interesting to note, or to some, that these are often sold as part of the fund raising effort for the Nation of Islam. And if ever in downtown Atlanta on a Sunday, and you're at a red light at a large intersection, a very interesting phenomenon can occur, when suddenly you see dozens of dashingly dressed, young Farrakhanites, with that typical 1960's sunglasses look of Malcom X, approaching your car with bean pies in hand to sell you. Can you beat that? Foodie amazement! Some unfamiliar might be intimidated to flee, but we Foodies, are often first to roll down the window to donate, if just for the sake of our house of worship, The Church of Foodies. Go see Shabazz! CASH!
