Elizabeth on 37th

HISTORIC DISTRICT. Arguably Savannah's best restaurant, this award-winning grande dame gets lots of attention from foodies and has been the recipient of many culinary awards. The menu updates Southern fare, making abundant use of fresh seafood and items like black-eyed peas, grits, okra, pecans, and the like. The salads even feature home-grown herbs. A terrific wine list complements the cuisine beautifully, and 7-course tasting menus are available if you'd like to give yourself over to the chef's expertise. The stunning mansion that houses Elizabeth is gorgeous inside too, made even more beautiful with candelight and crackling fires.
