Throughly enjoyed our time! Great variety on the menu, dishes are creative and layered with a multitude of flavors. Enjoyed getting to start the meal with fresh biscuits. Cocktail list and atmosphere are also lovely. Service is top notch and makes you feel like family. We really enjoyed Chris. Definitely try the specialty Manhattan and the green fried tomatoes as well as the rabbit starter. Being from OR this was the perfect leap into southern cuisine.

Well I'll be reporting you to the BBB. And the price is still wrong online.......It was sad when I worked there for 14$ as a cook. But damn Dan that's pitiful

My experience at a.Lure was a parade of disappointments, marking several unpleasant "firsts" for me. It was the first time a dining establishment managed to utterly humiliate me. I chose this restaurant for a significant first date, and regrettably, it was also the first occasion I felt compelled to tip below 15%.The initial red flag was their attempt to seat us at a dismal table akin to being beside a restroom, despite our reservation. Thankfully, we secured a better spot, but that was the end of our luck.Our server did his best amidst chaos, as the rest of the staff seemed to operate in a bewildering frenzy. Our initial drink orders lagged, setting a tone of disappointment that only intensified. Appetizers arrived with a prompt to reorder drinks, which we did, not realizing it would take a staggering hour for a glass of wine to appear. My cocktail lagged even further behind. With reservations at 7:40, we abandoned the idea of dining in, opting instead for to-go containers after an absurd wait, leaving us without our meal.The excuse provided was a party's arrival, yet the restaurant was dotted with empty tables, hinting at a deeper issue with management and service efficiency. Observations of inconsistent drink presentations at another table only added to our frustration, underscoring a lack of attention to detail.Upon finally sampling our meals at home, the exorbitant prices seemed like a cruel joke against the backdrop of the food's mediocre quality. It's clear that A.Lure's dining experience is in dire need of overhaul, failing to deliver on both service and culinary expectations. This was not merely a letdown; it was a complete dereliction of hospitality standards.

Beautiful place, moody ambiance. The scallops with risotto and seafood pasta were amazing. While the low-country boil and sauce was delicious, the corn souffle was the stand-out part of the dish. It seemed more like a panna cotta in texture and not too sweet for the savory dish. The desserts were also delicious.The food was great, but our experience was over-the-top memorable because of our waitress, Darnetra. She was an absolute wonder. She was funny, engaging, and efficient. She knew what we needed before we needed it. The best part is she had great knowledge of the menu. We could tell she appreciated a good taste or flavor and genuinely wanted to share it with people. They were out of pecan pie when we visited, but because of Darnetra's description we'll be sure to drop by for a portion when we come back to Savannah.

Especially given how super busy it was on St. Patrick’s Day, the service was so good! The host saw us waiting outside for opening and actively came out to make sure we had a reservation, which was super nice.Liam the bartender was doing a great job setting up and making sure we were taken care of before the kitchen opened. He rolled with the punches and was a lot of fun.Our server was so great and friendly, and remembered all our orders without any mistakes while being very nice.I had the rabbit ravioli which was rich and delicious. The braised pork shank was incredible. I was completely satisfied with every part of the dinner, all the service, and the ambience. Super tasty, I was blown away.

Service was lovely, but the food was not great. Scallops were tough and the abductor muscles were left on (that's just gross) and the fried green tomatoes were bland. I would get a drink here again, but skip the food.

Our dinner experience was terrific, albeit with a few minor hiccups. At the time of our arrival a very large groups also arrived, affecting the experience. In spite of this we had a good dinner. Our reception by the general manager, the service and the food were all terrific. We had two Caesar salads where, instead of croutons, toasted bread was offered. Unfortunately, the bread was neither toasted nor fresh. Our waiter was very responsive and when fresh bread came out of the oven, he brought it to the table with an apology. The rest of the meal was excellent. Every bite was delicious and the service excellent. At the end of the meal the General Manager came to our table to apologize for the wait, explaining the reason for it. We much appreciated this. Overall experience was excellent, albeit with minor hiccups. We would come back anytime, as the quality of the meal outshined any minor inconvenience.

Great food. We got a seat next to the kitchen door so lots of normal commotion. Would recommend moving that table away from the door. Otherwise great food and service. Would go again.

Came here for dinner today. To start the service was great. Even our waiter who said it was his first time waiting did really good ?? He humbly admitted his I don't knows, which is good because I believe in honesty going long ways.We started with the shrimp and grits appetizer size and the ravioli. Both were delicious, but to me what stood out was the rabbit ravioli. That was incredible, the sauce especially, you could give me a cup of it with a straw!For my entree i got the pork shank. Either be really hungry or have a box ready, because it's huge! And the pork itself is very tender and the cherry demi glace is delicious! A great final meal before starting the drive back home tomorrow ??

Our first time eating here. I am very picky though the food was good. The atmosphere was great. Our hostess Michelle was very nice & attentive . I give her 5 stars for her attitude and her knowledge of the menu and just having a wonderful smile. The assistant manager Shawn was a delight, he checked on us and made sure things were good. Wonderful conversation with them, they made their customers feel welcome and at ease. Continue to have this kind of service.

They have gone way downhill. Service was ok but inexperienced. Some food was good but other food was not. We had to send a steak back twice so three of us were finished eating before the fourth person even got his entree. Shame because we used to like going here.
