Our group came down for the SCAD Savannah Film Festival and made a reservation for 8 at Circa 1875. Lauren was a wonderful server and extremely attentive. The food was absolutely delicious and I highly recommend checking out this spot!

Mandy from the Pirates House, recommended this restaurant and specifically the French Onion Soup and the Bouillabaisse. We passed on the FOsoup but the bouillabaisse was delicious as were the rest of our dishes, including desserts.

Thank you so much Donnie! Bar service was so excellent, as well as the drinks he suggested and made. Food was phenomenal, we had the Mussels in a white wine & cream sauce which were extremely fresh (from Prince Edward Island), the Crab Coquettes that had minimal filling with remolaude and light greens, and a steak tartare that was simple and exquisite. Thank you all for the great experience!

This restaurant is one of the best Savannah has to offer. From the ambiance and atmosphere, food and service, 10 out of 10 recommend. We sat at the bar and received 5 star service. Donnie is so knowledgeable and his drinks were out of this world. The food was so delicious. We will definitely be back!

The service was slow and a bit disorganized, with our server seeming inattentive throughout the evening. We gave him a pass because the place was packed with diners and it appears lacking in staff. We assumed he had many tables. When our food arrived, it was very disappointing - too heavy on butter and oil, completely lacking seasoning, and honestly inedible. We did not finish our appetizers or main courses!!! When I politely mentioned the issue, the server seemed surprised but offered no solution, no apology, and no manager follow-up!!

I felt like I was on a tour through France from my first to the last bite. Ratatouille was in the top 3 most flavorful dishes I've ever had. Creme brulee was definitely the best I've been had. This isn't even mentioning the top-notch service - absolutely fantastic spot for a romantic or casual bite or drink.

We stopped in here on a whim and it ended up being our favorite food we’ve had in Savannah so far! The staff were also very friendly and accommodating. Would highly recommend the French onion soup, ratatouille, and the crème brûlée.

Literally had the worst steak I've ever had at a restaurant in my entire life. Truly awful. Informed both the waiter and maître d and received a sharper steak knife! Seriously.

Our 4th time here and a must visit for us when we come to Savanah, not sure what happened… dishes did not come out with listed accompaniments (pork chop was supposed to have acorn squash and Brie cheese) and it came out with Brussels sprouts and no Brie cheese. Mine was missing the proclaimed sides and garnishees as well (the duck). When questioned we were told the kitchens doesn’t tell the servers when they change the dish. It took us 2:45 minutes for a single course meal… just too long. Will go back but very disappointed this time.

James is the best server I've had. He made me laugh the entire evening yet was so sophisticated and refined!

Always love dining at Circa when my mom and sister are in town! Our waiter was amazing and very attentive. I ordered the escargots and potato / leek soup, and loved both dishes so much but they weren't as hot as I was expecting. I've ordered the escargots before and they came out sizzling in the butter. Still always tasty and a great experience!

First, let me state that the service was outstanding. Majority of the food was great. Started with escargot. As everyone has stated before, great. Salads were top notch. Cesar and beet salads. Oh that bread , great. Couple glasses of Malbec and Chardonnay to go with the Scallops and duck. The wife says the scallops mixed with some pork belly were delicious. Now the semi bad part. My duck. It was cooked to perfection, medium rare. The sauce was tasteless. Real week. Sad. Finished off with the chocolate cake and puff pastry. Overall, a good night out.

Brandon

The chicken was very good! But the duck was just okay. So my wife and I split the chicken, but the sever removed the duck from our bill to make up for it! Definitely stop here while you're in Savannah!!

Christine

It was great, every member was great, especially our dealings with Otto our server, Alden who brought items out as well as the ladies that greeted us when we arrived. They made our 1st day in Savannah amazing Thank you

I was expecting so much more from this restaurant. The service was great. But the food fell short of expectations. Chicken was dry.. really come on. Start was very good but the pate de canard was awful
