The Grove

Great food and ambiance. Was during busy time so it did take awhile to get drinks but the waitress was sweet about it.

We were a group of 5 searching for a place for breakfast in Savannah and we found this place when searching Open Table. We were able to make a reservation in the next 15 minutes and the restaurant was just around the corner. There was a large bar in the main room and additional seating upstairs. We were seated in a side room with very minimal decor.

Our server was Sidney and she came over to take our orders almost immediately. Two in our group wanted beverages from the bar; a mimosa and an Aperol Spritz. (Our server wasn't sure if they could make one; but it turns out they could.)

The brunch menu had a few egg dishes, chicken wings, burgers, some southern dishes like "shrimp & grits" and "chicken & biscuits," and other breakfast favorites like waffles, quiche, and avocado toast. I ordered the spinach, red pepper and feta cheese quiche, ($13,) which came with a side Grove salad. The quiche was a really big piece and it was very good; although it wasn't very warm. My husband had the shrimp and sausage gravy biscuits. He dove right in, so I didn't get a photo. He said it was delicious and had just the right amount of spice. It was $15. My mother had the Belgian waffle with strawberries and cream. It was $13. The waffle was gigantic and she could only eat 1/2. My mother-in-law had the Breakfast Club sandwich and a side of fresh fruit. It was an egg, applewood bacon, lettuce, tomato, and cheddar cheese on a croissant for just $11. Finally, my sister had the "Build Your Own Breakfast" which was a choice of egg, sausage or bacon, biscuits, and cheese grits or home fries. ($12). She thought it was very good.

Our service was good, the food was excellent, and the prices were just right. The Grove is a great brunch option in Savannah; if I return to the city I'd like to check out the rooftop restaurant and bar next time.

When we were referred to this "restaurant", we thought it was going to a bit more upscale. We were very wrong. This is more of a bar that serves food rather than a restaurant with a bar. The main floor was boring, the food was even more boring, and the options were minimal.
We had Nashville Hot Chicken, and being from Nashville, I think the chef should come to Nashville to see how it is supposed to taste and be served.
My wife had the shrimp burger, with zero flavor other than the lettuce and tomato, no spice, no flavor.
The service was good as the young folks hustled around and kept the glasses full, but, it did not make up for the lack of flavor in the food dishes.

Hello we went here last night : When you go to the roof top the have limited menu than the restaurant down below , you have to scan it through your camera to get the menu , if you scan through your app, you won't get the new updated menu. I saw another review saying they didn't like the music. It was explicit language. I will say I didn't hear that but I felt like the music was a little loud. The ambience is ok , it's not bad .
We didn't have food, but we had drinks .
Drinks were good .

Really good rooftop bar in Savannah. The drinks are strong and well crafted. We had an appetizer there that was really good too. We will definitely be back to Savannah and may make this a stop again. I'd recommend this place if you're looking for casual rooftop bars.

A Thoughtful Reflection on The Grove Dining Experience

My recent visit to The Grove left me with mixed feelings, and I feel compelled to share my honest feedback to assist others in making informed choices for their dining experiences.

While we were excited to celebrate my daughter's birthday, our overall impression was affected by several factors. Firstly, the establishment's physical setting didn't align with the enticing images portrayed on their website and Yelp. The three flights of stairs to reach the dining area were an unexpected inconvenience, and the rooftop, despite its potential, lacked the appeal we had anticipated. The dining area itself was notably small, with around seven tables, and the majority of space was occupied by the bar.

One of the significant concerns was the choice of music. The explicit lyrics of the rap songs played were not suitable for all audiences. Despite our requests, the staff was slow to respond, and the ambiance only improved when they switched to country music.

Service was another aspect that fell short of expectations. Our waitress, Destiny, seemed less attentive to our needs, and we had to repeatedly ask for essentials like condiments. The delay in food arrival, coupled with discrepancies in the orders--such as missing items on the Grove burger--contributed to a less-than-ideal dining experience.

The limited brunch menu during our visit was unexpected and added to the overall sense of feeling rushed. Despite the size of our party, we had to advocate for additional tables, and the lack of a warm welcome upon our arrival made the experience less inviting.

Parking, located in a nearby garage with an eight-minute walk, added an extra layer of inconvenience. The absence of a greeter at the entrance left us uncertain about where to go, contributing to a less-than-welcoming start.

While we acknowledge that everyone's experience can differ, our visit to The Grove left us feeling that the level of service did not align with the price we paid. I hope this review helps others make thoughtful decisions about their dining choices, urging them to consider their preferences and expectations before opting for The Grove. Additionally, the limited and cramped dining area, along with the absence of a fire pit on the rooftop, could have enhanced the overall experience and atmosphere.

We came here multiple times during our stay in Savannah and really enjoyed it! There were a lot of great drink options, and the food here is just as good!

The service was great, and our waiter both times was so attentive and on top of things! I would highly recommend making a reservation if you want to sit at their roof top portion, but if you just want a fun drink at the bar, they do have a bar section on the first floor that you can walk in at anytime.

I would highly recommend coming here if you're able to, such a great place to have brunch and drinks!

Overall 4/5: Good vibes, awesome service. My friend and i were looking for a cute rooftop restaurant open late enough for us to dine in. We fortunately found the grove and enjoyed it very much.

Drinks 4/5: I had the french twist which was awesome. French 75's are my go to always, so when i saw their own version i had to try it. loved the addition of the st germain and cucumber and mint. Excellent. My friend had the grand mule which she enjoyed as well.

Food 3/5: My friend had a burger and i had the chicken tenders. There was a limited menu up top, but still good selections. The chicken tenders had good flavor, but they had a really weird texture. It melted in your mouth which is not something i typically expect in a chicken tender, so it was interesting. The fries were awesome, nice and crispy.

Service 5/5: Our server was super quick and friendly. She was super attentive and made sure we had everything we needed for our meals.

Ambiance 5/5: We loved the rooftop, the weather was nice. The music was great. Loved the decor and vibes.

Thank you, The Grove!

The Grove is such a cute spot for lunch or dinner. Drinks and food are amazing. Service has always been excellent. You need reservations if you have a big party! Their to-go Capri sun drinks are the best!

Insta vibes, perfect for a group of ten for a bachelorette party . Lots of food and drink options .
