The Fitzroy

"More of a rooftop restaurant and less of a rooftop bar, the Fitzroy’s outdoor area serves fancy pub fare like fish and chips, fennel-flecked lamb burgers, and Australian wagyu tartare. Bourbon lovers appreciate the impressively stocked back bar and classic cocktails. A little off the tourist radar, the long candlelit tables make this a seductive date night spot." - Kiki Dy

"chef Todd Harris came to the Hostess City by serendipity. Despite never having been to Savannah, he felt a spontaneous and strong draw to an opportunity at downtown restaurant the Fitzroy (9 Drayton Street)." - Kiki Dy

"Tucked into the corner of a nondescript historical building sits the Fitzroy. The red front door opens to a large bar with ample seating and interior exposed brick and an open dining room with gorgeous green booths. Happy hour is Wednesday to Monday from 3-5 p.m. offering light bites to pair with cocktails, beer, and wine but not necessarily in that order. Rooftop options are also available for those wishing to look out over the Savannah skyline." - Barbara Skidmore

"Industrial aesthetics can feel cliched nowadays, but The Fitzroy's dining room feels subtle and chic, and the ambience reflects a sense of elegance. The usual brunch suspects are joined by a spicy Moroccan scramble with merguez sausages, an Israeli shakshuka with chorizo and roasted potatoes, and an Australian ricotta hotcake with mascarpone and maple syrup. Other unusual options include chicken schnitzel, salmon croquettes, and a crab omelette." - Paul Oswell

"Culinary civility The vibe Romantic industrial The crowd Sophisticates The drinks Robust cocktail selection The food Global deliciousness" - Paul Oswell
