Went to fiddlers for a nice meal but it turned out to be the worst. The service wasn’t very good it was like piece=meal and they would not seat us until everyone was there when there was four of us already. Ordered a glass of wine when everyone else ordered drinks and had to ask again. WE were having a business meeting and I suggested Fiddlers because was there once before and had great service and food but we will not go back after last night.

I have worked in restaurants my entire life so I know how easy it is to have a bad experience in one. I also know how much damage Unilocal can do in the hands of a stupid person. Having said that… I visited Fiddlers Seafood on Tuesday around 3:30 in the afternoon. I could tell the place was kind of slow so I just sat at the bar. The bar had a waterfall flowing across huge beautiful double-bay windows, which were open, so it was a bit warm. But I didn’t mind because it was a nice summer day. My bartenders were Kary and Jennifer. They were both really friendly and nice. Kary suggested that I try the Seafood Nachos so I ordered that for my appetizer, and she told me about their awesome special on steamed shrimp(2 for 1 on Tuesdays), so I had the steamed shrimp for my meal. The Nachos were huge! They were served with a big pile of shrimp and crabmeat, and what must have been 4 different types of cheese. Delicious! The shrimp were also amazing. I could tell they werent frozen shrimp, so I asked where they were from, and my bartender told me that they get fresh Georgia White shrimp daily from local shrimp boats. I was thoroughly impressed. So many places claim to have local, fresh seafood, but at this place you can tell the difference. My only regret is that I havnt found this place sooner! Excellent!

I’ve eaten with big groups before but when we had to ask for refills 3 plus times and start to get your own before they get it. Seriously?! The food was mediocre and the place is extremely loud. I wish we could have picked somewhere else after the fact. Hard to find a table for 10 on short notice on a Friday night. Definitely not recommending this place to anyone. Sad foodie and Unilocaler. On to the next food spot. Hope you enjoyed your 20% tip added because you sure didn’t earn it.

Will not be back. My husband and I along with our 2 kids went in for a Sunday lunch. We got there as they were opening. We waited almost 45 minutes for our food which was so greasy it was gross. My husband had a combo plate of fish and shrimp and calamari I believe. The plate contained 80% calamari. The shrimp was some of the worst I have had for fried shrimp. Even my children’s shrimp was bad. I had the combo of shrimp and crab. The shrimp was good and the crab was ok. The amount and the quality were terrible. I’m not usually one to complain as I’ve been a server myself. Maybe busier times are better to eat there? Idk. I was very disappointed!

I may have ordered the wrong thing but thought you cant go wrong with the catch of the day… lets just say that my salmon didn’t taste anything like salmon because of all the spices on it. It was thin and small for $ 22! The service was good. The restaurant was run down. I wont return.

Left because we waited and waited and waited and no one came to take our order. They were not busy it was 1 o’clock in the afternoon. It is absolutely unusual for us to walk out of a restaurant. Most of the people in there were finishing up there meal so the wait staff really did not have an excuse for the lack of service. That was our first and will be our last visit to this restaurant.

Fiddlers was good but not great. The whole restaurant smelled a little… off, but otherwise was nice. Ordered raw oysters as an app and they were large and very good. Got the seafood combo of fried oysters and shrimp for my meal. The batter was bland on both and the shrimp tasted a little past their prime. Our server was lovely and very attentive the whole time. We went on our way back from vacation and I don’t think we would come this far out of our way again for a just ok restaurant.

I was appalled that they fry the chicken and French fries in the same grease as the seafood. That is disgusting. I am allergic to seafood, but sometimes I go to seafood restaurants with family or friends. If a restaurant offers non seafood items, they should make sure it is really non seafood. Allergies can be serious events, and a restaurant should take cautions to prevent life threatening events happening to unsuspecting customers. I didn’t realize that any restaurants still fried stuff together. Where is the health department??? I will never go to this restaurant again after experiencing their careless disregard for the patrons health.

AWESOME. $ 5 Bloody Mary’s. Cheap oysters(~14/dozen). Yummy crab dip. Ask for Rick, he was the best. He was attentive but not over the top. We didn’t make it in time for happy hour but they had some amazing happy hour deals. $ 1 vodka drinks if you like that, but who doesn’t want to get a little tipsy for just a dollar a drink? I highly recommend this place to anyone staying in Savannah!

My family and I came in during lunch. Let me just say that I’m very particular with seafood and how it’s cooked, but everything that was brought to our table was cooked to a T. All of us ordered the low country with ½ a pound of snow crab legs added on and it. I feel like the portions could have been a little larger for the price paid. We each only got two potatoes and two sausages, however we were there for lunch and the dinner portions may be larger. The hush puppies here are probably some of the best I’ve tasted. They were fried lightly and were seasoned nicely. Overall, great tasting food and nice atmosphere. If you go, see if Debbie is there. She is a very charismatic server and sweet as can be.

So cute! Kind of themed but not in an overwhelming type of way. Good value for steamed seafood and a friendly wait staff with plenty of space. Can’t think of a reason to not give it five stars :)

The food here is pretty much the equivalent of what you would get an Applebee’s if Applebee’s had a lot of seafood. The seafood is generally low quality, though the portion sizes are extra large. The seafood nachos are decent. The crab legs are good. The service was good. The water feature outside the restaurant is very cool and almost enough to make you forget that you’re actually in the back of a Kroger parking lot.

Got the fried oyster appetizer and really appreciated the light fried taste and copious quantity for an initial start to the meal. Afterwards I gobbled up some crab cakes, two by which had minimal filler. They were scrumptious along with the red rice and a cold glass of high quality H2O. I was only in town for several days, so I made a second visit just for the oysters that you just can’t get in the central states.

They have the best crab cakes I’ve had anywhere!!! The lobster bisque was awesome and I really loved the fried shrimp. Everything was great, especially the service!!!

I have been here twice in the past year. I have had a great time, and a great meal both times. The wait and bar staff are knowledgeable and friendly, the drinks are well made and the seafood is tasty! I sat at the bar the first time, at dinner, and at a booth for lunch. So a rounded experience. The lunch experience was kind of slow but that wasn’t so bad since I was there to catch up with a close friend. But the time between apps and entrées was almost 25 minutes — at lunch… and they didn’t ask if we wanted more drinks when they delivered the entrées. But the food was delicious both times

We were seated and had to wait almost ten minutes for service. The wife had the shrimp which she enjoyed. They gave quite a lot of shrimp for the price. I had the oysters and clams. Both were over breaded and cooked. Ruth, server, was quite nice and apologized for the wait. Probably won’t come back.

I’m pretty surprised about the reviews here. We picked this place on a whim because it was near our hotel and looked pretty nice from the outside. They were not busy at all on a Sunday afternoon, so we were seated quickly. Our waitress was very nice, but she did say a few unprofessional things.(Such as, my husband mentioned during conversation that Savannah is my favorite city and I have been trying to convince him to move there. She began telling us how much she hates it and how horrible it is. She also made sure to tell us many times that we was trying to save money to move back to Colorado.) Either way, she was nice and kept our glasses filled. My husband ordered seafood nachos and wings. He said both were VERY good. The amount of food given with the nachos was AMAZING. VERY large portions. He also ordered a local beer. He didn’t like it. They quickly brought him a different option and didn’t charge him for it! I ordered the fish tacos. They were very good. I also had a bloody mary. I happen to search out the best bloody mary places every where we travel. I have had them from so many restaurants. I was pleasantly surprised with the one I received at Fiddlers. It was REALLY good! Give this place a shot! I think you will enjoy it!

Service was great. Food was awesome as well. See pic of the appetizer we got it was chicken nachos. Great … the good thing is you can actually share a platter especially if the person doesn’t eat slot.

Great restaurant! Large dining area with lots of menu options. Crab legs and crab soup was awesome! We had no wait on a Friday night.

At first, I really want give zero for my experience I got tonight. I had some good time in this seafood restaurant before. But tonight I came here order a double tier steamed seafood, which is also their signature dish. And I waited around 45mins, then they offer me a dish frozen food. Yes, shrimp, mussels and most of the dish are with ICE cloth! Real ice in my dish. At the end, so disappointed. No more here again.
