Fishbar

We had reservations at Fishbar to celebrate our wedding anniversary in early January. We arrived early to enjoy a cocktail on the back patio which is absolutely fantastic. After drinks, we were escorted to our table which had a congratulatory card acknowledging our celebration. Our server Mahryah, was very attentive. We had oysters for an appetizer, and shrimp and sea bass entrees for our main meals. Mahryah suggested the potatoes with squid aioli for a side, which we would highly recommend. While we didn’t feel our main dishes were taking long, the manager brought two glasses of Rose to our table as a way to celebrate our day, but also to acknowledge that the sea bass was taking longer than planned. While unnecessary and unexpected, it was a nice touch. Our meal ended with a delicious c

The first three dishes we got were some of the best dishes we've ever eaten at a restaurant (and we've been to 3 Michelin 1 star restaurants). We really enjoyed the Puffed Frena Bread, Charred Savoy Cabbage, and Rhode Island Calamari Skewers. The flavors were deep, rich, but not too heavy, had enough acidity, and had just the right balance to give an incredible taste. The texture of the bread was crispy on the outside but soft on the inside. The cabbage hard charred edges that brought a smokey flavor with a crunch to it. The calamari had a smokiness that came from being cooked over woodfire and a sourness that came from the preserved lemons and it was a delight to eat. This restaurant has a distinct personality in that they use live-fire from wood to cook their food and you can taste it.

We had a wonderful experience tonight thanks to our server, Mahryah! The open kitchen is beautiful and impeccably clean. We’ll definitely be trying the chef’s counter on our next visit. The entrées were thoughtfully coursed, letting us relax and fully enjoy the meal without having to think about timing. Each dish was absolutely delicious. If you’re looking for fresh, exciting flavors in Savannah, stop searching and make a reservation!

@diningwithdirk: Valentine’s Day edition to myself. Knees are weak, palms are sweaty at Fish Bar Savannah. Putting on my Sunday best a day early. The moment the door opens, a warm dimness settles in — and you can’t help but love it. From behind the bar, Maren and Emma (Em & M, if you will) set the tone for the night. I kicked things off with a half dozen of today’s oysters topped with pink peppercorn dressing — chilled and delightful, like a brisk February morning in Savannah. Next up: charred cabbage. Who likes cabbage? Apparently, I do now. I peeled it away piece by piece, and somehow it got better with every bite. Just when you think we’re done, out comes the flounder filet with a golden raisin gramolata Absolutely mouthwatering. Bringing things to a close, the neighborhood never disa

Wow! What a great experience, everything here was a 10/10 no complaints. We came with a party of 6 and pretty much tried the whole menu, all of it was perfect. Definitely try the sweet potatoes, mussels and of course the whole red snapper (best fish I’ve ever had.) The drinks were also fantastic and I can’t even express how amazing the service was. Our server Lily was so incredibly knowledgeable and was able to answer every question we had without skipping a beat. She was so confident and charismatic which is so impressive given we went on opening night. GO TO FISHBAR!!!!!!!!! you won’t be disappointed
