The food scene in Savannah is pretty outstanding, no matter which cuisine it is you are looking for. In fact, this restaurant has quite the eclectic menu itself, ranging from fresh seafood platters to authentic, rustic Italian dishes. But what’s even cooler about this Georgia restaurant is that it sits in an old 1800’s firehouse that served the community as a gathering space. With unique architecture and expertly prepared foods, this one spot is a dining list must.

Just a few short blocks from the famed River Street in Downtown Savannah, you’ll find an old restored firehouse that is now a deliciously decadent rustic eatery.

Garibaldi Cafe is housed in the 1871 Germanian Fire House, which was built in classic Palladian architecture.

The Germanian Society back in the 1800s used firehouses as community gathering spaces, which is why the space now is much bigger than you’d expect.

We guarantee that you’ll enjoy the Crispy Diamond Scored Flounder just as much as you would the Seared Sea Scallops over a country ham risotto.

The dessert too, is seemingly like a work of art and makes for the perfect pairing to end any meal.

And while the seafood is of peak freshness and expertly prepared, we can’t forget the entire section of the menu that is solely dedicated to pasta.
