Vic's On the River

If you're a sweet tea person, like myself. This is the place, to have a refreshing glass of sweet tea. Food was delicious, service was excellent and vibe was great. My 91yr young auntie had a baby grand piano, a few years ago. Anytime she sees a piano, she play Georgia on My Mind. And she still has it, at 91. Everyone smiled and gave her, a round of applause. Precious memories were made!

The greeters were great. We were running a little late because we weren't sure of where to park and misjudged the distance from where we parked to the restaurant. So we called to let them know, and they did hold our reservations until we got there. We were seated by the window which allows a great view of the Savannah River and the River Walk. Our server was fantastic and knew the menu very well. He suggested the crab cake for an appetizer and it was everything he said, "lots of crab meat and lite feeling". It came with a mustard cream sauce which was tasty but I didn't eat much of it because I like the natural taste of crab. For dinner I had the Pecan Fried Flounder with mashed potatoes and asparagus. I wanted something different so I chose the Pecan Fried Flounder and it was a hit. It came with a honey glaze that was not too sweet but lite enough to taste. The asparagus was grilled with a hint of sea salt. Also, we were served biscuits with honey butter. The food was great. I only ate half of the fish and mashed potatoes because of the biscuits. Very tasty food. I gave the atmosphere 4 Stars because I could hear other tables' conversation, so I feel a lite music would drown that out. Overall the experience was great, we really enjoyed Vic's On the River.

We decided to take a road trip and on the way stopped by Savannah. My family is from the south though I am a native New Yorker, so I have high expectations when it comes to Southern food and especially my grits. This place far exceeded expectations and had a wonderful atmosphere! We did come during January and it was freezing for Georgia but the staff was attentive, courteous and professional despite the slow season. Hostess and waitress were super nice. Beautiful atmosphere across from the river with high end finishes and very clean. We ordered breakfast.. my husband got the eggs Benedict and a Bloody Mary and I got the shrimp and grits. They were amazing and I will definitely come back to see it in the summer. PS - we stayed at the Hyatt and there is actually an elevator down to the river walk IN the hotel. We walked around outside trying to figure out how to get down there.

If you never had a Crab soup before - this is the place to try it! It was rich, flavorful and full of crab meat. My husband loves catfish and he really enjoyed their Catfish Po’boy. Wish we stayed in Savannah longer to try their other dishes!

The complimentary biscuits and butter were the best biscuits I’ve ever had. They were warm, soft, fluffy and with the right amount of hold to the entire pastry. We had the Southern classic of Fried Green Tomatoes, and they did not disappoint. The goat cheese paired with the balsamic glaze over a thinly crisped coat of a not-soggy-at-all tomato was so enticing. The Crawfish Beignets were so fluffy and delicate. The French Onion Soup had an incredible cheese-pull. The Char Grilled Octopus was so tender and just the right amount of grill aroma. The entree Crab Cakes were so full of crab and a beautiful flavor that was brought out in the seafood. The couscous to pair were wonderfully seasoned too. The Pan Seared Scallops were so juicy and paired perfectly with the lemon herb cream. The Pecan Fried Flouder was so tender and delicious and so was the Grilled Salmon. We also got one tail of a lobster and that was incredibly juicy and well made. The waiter was also incredibly fun and nice.

Nice spot for lunch on the river. Walked in without a reservation around 1pm on a Thursday. Food was good, service was smooth and quick. Shrimp & grits was pretty heavy so not the best choice if you’ll be spending the afternoon walking around Savannah.

5 Star service through and through. Vic's on the River speaks elegance with stunning views of the waterfront. Vic's is rich in history, where they even found an old map of the Chattanooga Trail when doing renovations, that is now part of the wall on display behind glass. Vic's on the River from start to finish was superb. The staff are extremely attentive and really nice and accommodating. I recommend Vic's on the River to all for a stellar meal and a phenomenal atmosphere. 5 Star Service again and again. Savannah, GA is full of rich history and dining that you will never forget.

What a charming restaurant located in the heart of Savannahs waterfront. We were passing through town & decided to grab dinner last minute. They were nice enough to accommodate us last minute outside on the patio. We enjoyed the krawfish starters & the soup was incredible. We enjoyed the entrees but found the sides a bit bland & asked for salt. The wait staff was pleasant and attentive. We enjoyed our evening.
