12 Best Wine Bars in Savannah

“Exceptional wine. Creative and delicious cuisine. Pleasant and professional staff. Knowledgeable and attentive serving team. Just a great, genuine group of people in a beautiful space with an exquisite experience!!!!“

“Highly recommend Wine Bar on the River!! Spotlessly clean, friendly and knowledgeable staff!! If I could give more than five stars I would ❤️“

“Wow. what a romantic, quiet gem. We found 208 while celebrating my birthday, and waiting for our son to join us from NYC. His flight into Savannah was delayed for several hours, and we passed the time at 208 listening to a wonderful duo of guitarists/vocalists,, drinking great wine served by our attentive sommelier Shannen, and soaking in the river views. Highly recommend.“

“The atmosphere at Late Air is exceptional. No matter the season, a chill in the air, or sweltering humidity, the ambiance is Hot and Chill! The wine is like no other in the region sourced from near and far. I am told that in most cases the wineries are visited by the owners and operators Madeline and Colin. This greatly adds to the mystic because if you are lucky enough to be there when they are (which is highly likely), they may tell you a heartfelt story of how that particular wine made its way to Savannah and your palette. The food pairings are of a level of sophistication yet approachable. The menu changes often so make certain to follow them in insta and FB for the current offerings. Cheers!“

“By far the best place we ate at in Savannah. 10/10 recommend.

We were walking back to our hotel and stumbled upon Joe & Vera’s. The sign out front said $1 oysters 12-2 and we immediately said yes! We visited Saturday 7/4/26 and the place was lively but not packed, we were able to grab a table in the front by their beautiful windows facing Broughton st.

Shorty and Josh greeted us with a delicious sample of the espresso martini and treated us wonderfully with incredible service the entire time we were there. We never felt like we were inconveniencing them with our requests or questions.

We ordered a dozen oysters (James River), caviar & chicharrones, the hot dog special, a glass of J. Laurens Blanquette de Limoux and a Mignonette Martini. Wow! Everything was phenomenal! Caleb, the chef, really knows what he’s doing and you can tell him and David, the bartender, collaborate on the menus. The oysters come with a perfectly balanced pink peppercorn mignonette which is also used in the martini (must try!!). I’ve never tried chicharrones and caviar together before but will definitely be pairing them again after this. The hotdog was by far the dark horse, we ordered it partly as a novelty as it was their special. Caleb designed it after a low country boil; pimento cheese slathered in the bottom of the buttered and toasted brioche bun, hotdog perfectly grilled and topped with shrimp, corn, red onions, peppers and steamed potato slices sandwiched between the dog and the bread. It. Was. Phenomenal. I’ll dream of that hotdog for days to come.

Caleb even took the time to come out of the kitchen and come over and say hello.

Don’t sleep on Joe & Vera’s! Not a single complaint to be had.“

“Loved our brunch during our visit to Savannah! Everything was delicious. Deviled egg appetizer was my favorite.“

“Awesome experience. A couples must !“

“We gave our experience 10 out of 10! From the moment we walked in, we had impeccable service. Our server, Casey, went above and beyond to make sure that we had everything we needed throughout the entire dinner. He was very knowledgeable about the menu and drinks and was a great server. It was the best steak I think I've ever had and my husband said the same. The bernaise sauce was amazing and the dessert was equally delish! We will be back!“

“Delicious crab cakes and excellent service!“

“We stayed at the Perry Lane hotel so we decided to try the Emporium for breakfast since it’s attached to the hotel. I got the omelet with potatoes which is so simple but it was very delicious! The ham in the omelet was super flavorful and the potatoes had so much seasoning. They did an exceptional job and the service from our waiter was top tier as well. It’s a very clean and well kept restaurant and I’m glad we tried it out on our stay. It’s definitely a must try if you’re in the area. 10/10“

“I love our neighborhood Italian restaurant. Good for everything from pizza, to pasta bakes, to their gorgonzola steak. Their bread sticks are wonderful. My husband will go just for the side salad. I love Joe's soup. We love the Sangria.“
