I have been to Savannah three times over the last seven years and I have always made a point to have dinner at the Pirate's House due to its place in history as well as my first experience there. The food and the service were excellent. This prompted a second visit two years later. I had raved about this place to the folks traveling with me.

I was very disappointed (and somewhat embarassed). We were seated (a party of six) at a table clearly meant for a party of four. We were banging elbows as we dined. The service was horrid. That being said, they were extremely busy during this vist but if you can not handle the customers, limit the seating.

We returned two years later and were seated in the "private" dining room.. It was a wonderful experience. Both the waiter and the food were outstanding!

My sister went last year taking her family. It proved to be a disappointment.

It is too bad that they are not consistent but still think it is worth a the risk. I cannot find fault with their food. Everything was really good.

If you are into pirates, visit Queen Anne's Revenge in Charleston! We had lunch there a few years ago. A wonderful experience.

A neat atmosphere that can be a bit spooky. The food is good and the service is decent. Just don't walk into unoccupied rooms alone...you'll get the funny feeling that all the pirates might not be gone.

The Pirates House is an interesting piece of savannah history. You should visit but bring a brown bag lunch. If you are looking for good food there are a ton of options, but this is not a place to eat a great meal. It is fine for a cocktail and relaxing.

I am in Nashville, I recommend that visitng friends should go to Tottsies Orchid Lounge - like the Pirates House it is part of the local history - but you would not go for the food. Think Pat OBriens in New Orleans.

Living on its past reputation. Now herding tourist with mediocre food. Wish they would take cusine seriously,

We went to The Pirate's House because we have a daughter who is obsessed with all things pirates, and expected the kind of food you get in places heavy on history/themes.

The food was just terrific - so good, in fact, that we went back the next night and ordered the same dishes.

The New York strip was of excellent quality both nights. The salads were fresh. The French Fries were actually french fries (not the horrible seasoned variety you get in some places). Even the house Pinot was extremely drinkable.

Some other folks staying at our hotel offered up reviews similar to some of the others here but after we challenged them they admitted they didn't really focus on the food.

This place is much better than it needs to be - and so good it's the first place we'd eat (after the fabulously mind-blowing Wilkes House) on a return visit.
