Five Guys again when I got there {I believe I am seeing a pattern}, but Saturday was all out foodie fun. Brunch with the sister-in-law-to-be/best friend/big sister at B. Matthew's Eatery--to be covered after the next #SAV trip--before a day out on the town getting pedi's at Spa Bleu, a visit to Wet Willies, and of course tons of shopping. Saturday night, Christopher and I, along with our friends Spencer and Andrew went to Tequila's Town for my birthday dinner. Best. Mexican Food. Ever. I seriously could drink the cheese dip. It's a cozy little place, with an excellent menu that was so fresh and delicious. And of course the margarita pitcher wasn't a bad way to start off a night in downtown Savannah! It was definitely worth our brief wait to eat--check out their menu here.
Monday I was able to have lunch with Christopher in between his classes and lab before I left town. We accidentally stumbled upon The 5 Spot in Habersham Village which was perfect! I loved the decor--all gray, and ropes, and exposed lighting; it was a really cool place. I had the Fried Green Tomato BLT with rémoulade and sweet potato fries, and Christopher had the amazing Southwest Burger with bow tie mac and cheese. We ended up each taking half of the other's sandwhich because it was too good not to share. They also had a fantastic looking breakfast menu we'll have to go back and try, along with the 5 Spot Nachos we were lusting after at the table next to us.

You have to try Local11ten (http://www.local11ten.com/). It's a restored bank ... and the food is awesome!
ReplyDeleteI have several places I really love in Savannah...but the Firefly Cafe is my absolute fav for Sunday brunch.

Thank you for all of the suggestions! I can't wait to try them all!
ReplyDeleteI really like the 17hundred90 too. Its pricey at dinner but lunch is reasonable. Its very old Savannah and a bit off the beaten path, like the Firefly, but those are my fav kind of places. You know, local places. I generally prefer the restaurants "off" River Street. Unless of course I'm heading to the Candy Kitchen for pralines! :)
ReplyDeleteRebecca, We do not go to River Street. Ick. :) Glad to know others feel the same!
ReplyDeleteIf you guys ever get to Beaufort, SC you should try Wren and Breakwater. Both are amazing!
