About Vic's On the River

Vic's On the River provides a memorable dining experience with excellent service and delicious food. Guests often praise dishes like the fried green tomatoes, shrimp & grits, ribeye steak, and jumbo lump crabcake. The desserts, especially the chocolate torte, pecan pie, and peach trio, are delightful. The restaurant’s scenic view of ships and the river adds to its charm, and its location offers a beautiful view of historic Savannah structures on Bay Street and River Street. Visitors enjoy the lively atmosphere, which can be busy with large groups or parties, sometimes making it loud, especially on busy nights. The staff, including friendly servers, make sure guests feel well taken care of. The food, such as shrimp and grits and fried green tomatoes, is flavorful and well-cooked, with perfect scallops being a highlight. Special touches like surprise desserts for celebrations add to the festive mood. The open ceiling and hardwood floors may amplify noise, but the overall quality of the food and the lovely atmosphere make Vic's a place worth visiting again. It's helpful to note that the restaurant is accessible from the street front, and the view from some tables is about three or four stories above the river. Despite some noise and close table arrangements, many guests enjoy the experience and find it a great spot to celebrate special occasions. Don't forget to try their delicious water too!

My friends and I were visiting Savannah and were looking to a high quality final dinner here. This was our worst experience in town. Do not eat here. The staff was incredibly rude, we waited for 20 minutes AFTER our reservation time, and they gave our table to someone else. Once we were finally seated, they refused to serve us because our REAL identification was fake. Our server was incredibly rude to us, and we left. Awful.

We were visiting Savannah with our kids and looking for a dog friendly place to eat dinner on Friday, April 18th. We went to Vic’s and our family of 4 were behind a couple in line to get a table. There was a 2 person table and a 4 person table open in the outdoor area. The hostess seated the couple at the 4 person table. She then told us because there was only a 2 person table available the wait would be 30-45 minutes. I asked why she sat the couple at the 4 person table when...read full review

This is always the place we enjoy dinner at when in Savannah. The food is excellent and the atmosphere of being on the River is fun. The piano bar area is where we try to sit for dinner. Has a full bar with seats where you can also eat.

The menu is diverse and consistently delicious. Main stay of Savannah.

Highly recommend for intimate dining or a group of friends.

Downstairs has outside dining as well right on the Riverside
