Scott P. from The NorthI have been meaning to get to this fine establishment for several years now, and tonight my fiancée and I made it in for an early dinner. Just off Telfair Square in the historic area of Savannah, the entrance is down a flight of stairs from street level. As soon as you walk in, you know you have entered a first class restaurant. Dark, intimate, white table cloths, dark wooden beams in the ceiling, fountains in the windows . . . . It all fits. Even the silverware grabs your attention. I immediately loved the place. Our server, Hannah, was equally amazing, extensively versed in all matters concerning the kitchen, and yet still friendly and personable. The menu here is more "restricted" than most, but that is a strength here, not a weakness. We shared some frogs legs to start, which were given a Cajun flavor with a nice kick. Excellent. My bride-to-be followed that up with the wild boar entree, while I went with the roasted elk special, served in a diane sauce with potatoes. Both entrees were wonderful. Don't skip dessert here, if you can manage it. With everything home-made, they are equally amazing.

BigBack CohenI dream of eating here again on a frequent basis. Took my wife here in our honeymoon, the waitress was very kind and even gave us a complimentary praline. This is a perfect place for a date night. The gumbo was very good I wish I could have this injected in my veins! My wife got the pan seared fish (locally caught) it was very delicious! Overall a great place for couples, expect to pay a pretty penny, but it is worth it!

Johnson’sExploreThis was my restaurant of choice for my birthday and it did not disappoint! When my sister and I walked in they asked us if it was for a birthday or just for fun. We told them birthday and they handed me a birthday card such a cute touch! I had never had alligator before and I think the fried alligator bites was the BEST thing out of everything we ended up ordering. The wild game mac and cheese was well cooked. The gumbo had a great flavor. The Louisiana bbq shrimp and fried Parmesan grits were so amazing and tasted just as good a couple of days later! What a wonderful experience Alligator Soul provided my sister and myself!

Morgan TurnerThis place is absolutely phenomenal. My server, Paige, was so attentive, kind, and knowledgeable. The fried alligator, frog legs, and the wild boar mac and cheese were all unique and incredible. Have to say my favorite was the mushroom salad. One of the best salads I’ve ever had no joke. Would highlyyyyy recommend.

El HefeAuthentic and unique. This was a culinary must do if you’re ever in the area. The menu specializes in local flavors and tastes. From Alligator, seafood and even some exotics like Kangaroo, New Zealand Elk or Wild Boar it does not disappoint.
