The Savannah's Café Cuisine

Chef Beetle brings years of experience to Savannah's menu of gourmet Southern foods. Whet your appetite with one of our mouth-watering appetizers like Seared Black Bean Cakes with green tomato salsa and sour cream or our Fried Green Tomatoes served over ham-and-cheese grit cakes and finished with goat cheese, pecans, and a roasted red pepper puree. For your entree you may find it tough to choose from our famous Shrimp and Grits with large shrimp sautéed in a Tasso ham, tomato, and basil crème sauce and served over cheese grits; or perhaps you would prefer jambalaya made from our traditional recipe. Or a heavenly New York strip steak slathered with pimento cheese, sure to make a Philly cheese steak take a back seat. Or traditional Southern favorites like Mississippi Fried Catfish dipped in yellow mustard, encrusted in cornmeal, topped with sautéed peppers and onions, and served with a side of Remoulade sauce accompanied by garlic mashed potatoes and fresh collard greens. Or our Buttermilk Fried Chicken stuffed with goat cheese and fresh herbs, topped with cracked pepper gravy served with garlic mashed potatoes and collard greens. You're certain to find something you love, but save room for dessert! We have Mama D's Bread Pudding with fruited rum sauce or our Pineapple Upside-Down Cake is the best anywhere. Perhaps you're feeling decadent and want to finish your experience with our White & Dark Chocolate Terrine with roasted almonds, pecans, and a fresh raspberry coulee. And of course you'll need something to "wash it all down!" We offer great flavored sweet teas and fresh fruit juices but our Juleps, with your choice of rum, bourbon, vodka or tequila, made with muddled mint, fresh lime and sugar are our specialty. They will make you think it's always Derby Day!
