Owners, please buy more umbrellas, put on a quieter playlist instead of a DJ, hire more people, and get an espresso machine. This place is better if you're a bachelorette party but less so if you're just casually dining.

We arrived for reservations for Sunday brunch and found a cute rooftop setting. Our server was great; Brunch was adequate. The starter board was ok (deviled eggs, salami, cheese and 2 pastries for 2 of us to share). Our entrees, Croque Madame and Shrimp and Grits were surprisingly good, but had we been expecting a huge portion, we'd have been disappointed. The desserts were lackluster, but we didn't really care, because, let's be honest - we were there for the bottomless mimosas! Would I go back for Sunday brunch? Yup. Would I recommend it to others? Yup, but I'd definitely set their expectations along with my recommendation.
Had an 11am reservation made months in advance, arrived 2 minutes before our reservation and were told to wait outside because the wait staff was not done setting up for the day yet. Finally at 11:05 they opened the doors and began sitting people, but not those with reservations first, just whoever was closest to the door. Took another 10 minutes at our table for someone to begin waiting on us.
Argh, don't like leaving mostly negative reviews, but we dined here knowing it was probably gonna be more about ambience and views and experience...and that was most definitely the actual experience. Gorgeous rooftop, views for days, but food was very meh. Pretty basic cheese for the starter board, entrees decent (place is very vegan-ish unfriendly/unprepared, and we had left notes on the reservation for one vegetarian with a serious egg allergy, but rather than having replacements for meats since one of us couldn't have the egg options, they just took the seafood off one salad and, well, it was just a basic salad at that point...I know it's the South, but vegan-ish requests just aren't that novel anymore), and desserts were really subpar (they looked good, but tasted below-average...I'm an overeating finish-my-plate type, but ate these like a chocolate box...one bite, then garbage). My mother was celebrating a major birthday and couldn't have a single dessert due to eggs, so it was disappointing the kitchen couldn't even throw the tiniest birthday acknowledgment/dessert together like, I don't know, some chocolate with strawberries...our pleasant but very busy server (brought my replacement napkin after I'd finished my meal) sweetly expressed it was sad she couldn't enjoy a single dessert for her birthday, so I guess that was the acknowledgment. I also work in food service/catering, so I know it's a pretty low price point for a prix fixe and knew to keep modest expectations, but this was maybe below my low expectations, food-wise

Unfortunately, Sunday Brunch was somewhat of a disappointment. Expected Jazz brunch, but instead had loud 90s pop with a dj. There were only 5 or 6 entree options prepared way ahead of time and just re-heated and brought out. They tasted ok. Our waitress was lethargic and indifferent--or maybe just hungover. She couldn't explain what she was bringing out--not even when we asked about the desert tray she placed on the table--she had no idea what anything was and admitted this. She spilled from our appetizer plate when serving (fruit, cheeses, meats and pastries) and didn't bother picking it up. She didn't walk around the table to serve our drinks properly, instead she reached over each time. She didn't know why it wasn't a jazz brunch as described online when booking. When we asked for coffee, she discouraged that order. We asked for a latte, was told they didn't serve those. When we asked for sparkling water, they had none to offer. It was the worst service I experienced during our entire stay in Savannah. She was unprofessional and unpleasant. The view from the rooftop was nice. Would recommend for drinks only.

It was a beautiful sunny morning. The Brunch was delicious. Plenty of food , Cheese board, crab cake salad plus endless Mimosas. How can you beat that. Great service. Then to top it off deserts.

Myrtle and Ross rooftop bar in Savannah offers a great view and a cool vibe. We opted for the brunch experience which included a three-course meal. The cheese and charcuterie board and devil eggs were a delicious start. For our entree, we chose the decadent pork belly egg dish and loved it. We also enjoyed the Veuve champagne, priced at $115, which paired perfectly with the beautiful rooftop view. The brunch experience also included a signature two-tier dessert platter. At $36 per person, the price seemed very reasonable. Overall, a fantastic experience with amazing food, drinks, and ambiance.

We went at 2pm for a light lunch and drink on our first day in Savannah on Friday and had a wonderful experience. Our waitress, Melissa, was kind and helpful. The food was surprisingly delicious but on the expensive side. Well worth it for a treat though. Between two people, we shared 4 dishes and it was a perfect amount of food. The ambience was stunning. Would recommend to anyone travelling To Savannah.
DO NOT GO. THIS PLACE IS A MESS. Out of half the menu- at one point our waitress told us how miserable she was. Didn't have enough staff...but saw many to clean glass ware. Just a terrible experience- we left. The drink I was given had no ice...no flavor other than store bought lemon juice...my partners white wine was WARM.

Great rooftop bar in downtown Savannah - the olive and lime trees on the top deck add to the open air ambiance and give shade if you're up there on a hot sunny day. It wasn't that crowded on a Sunday. The mixed drinks are sweet and refreshing and the food menu looked delicious even though I didn't have any - small food menu though but it was all unique options , not standard bar food. Service was quick and helpful!
Myrtle and Rose Champagne Brunch had a very diverse selection of brunch items that were tasty. The service was decent. Our only caviat was the DJ was playing very loud remixes and it was not a dance party feel (to us). We felt the music was in poor taste for the venue, it not being a dinnertime event or reception. It was also really difficult to talk to each other over the music. Loved the food but would not go back again for the ambience.

Made a reservation for brunch for sisters trip. The servers acted like they didn't want to be there. We got the brunch which includes a cheese board, entree & dessert tower for $36. Was not worth it. I got crab salad and was pretty good but app and dessert were not good and pretty bland. Best thing was view of river. Maybe better if you want to drink a lot at brunch since more of bar atmosphere.
Food and drink was fabulous. Can't rave enough about the wonderful ambience. Brunch was fantastic and the bottomless mimosas was the perfect garnish to a beautiful Saturday afternoon. Jeffrey took excellent care of us and was extremely attentive. Our group was additionally impressed by the DJ, who played great music but not so loud that we couldn't have conversations. We looked to give him a gratuity but declined and asked that we tip our server instead. Pure class all the way. Thank you Jeffrey for such a great experience for our ladies group!

Best rooftop in Savannah. The vibe is very exquisite & they grow fresh herbs on the rooftop with olive, orange and lemon trees! Hands down, best drinks. We went to Rocks on the River (terrible) & Electric Moon (fun) but Myrtle & Rose was phenomenal!!

Got sat and waited for 30 minutes without any service. Eventually, I got upset and just left
