Best fried chicken on earth. Juicy, tender, and smokin’ hot! I went back twice while on my trip to Savannah, it was that good! The chicken and cornbread really does make you go “mmm!”. The staff made you feel like they’ve known you forever and delivered top notch personable service. Whether you’re in town for a day or for a week, go to Geneva’s!

Great locally owned soul food restaurant. We were in town for spring break and was told to try before we left. So glad we did. Great food. Attentive staff. Great overall experience!! Will definitely be back when I'm in the city!

Hands down, one of the BEST fried chicken meals I’ve ever had! We stopped by Geneva’s in Savannah, GA and ordered the 3-piece meal—chicken breast and two thighs. Juicy, crispy, and seasoned to perfection! I had the jalapeno cornbread and mac n’ cheese as sides—both were absolute hits. My wife Irene got the same chicken combo but with mashed potatoes and gravy , and she loved every bite. To top it off, our server DeAndre showed us true Southern hospitality—friendly, attentive, and even surprised us with FREE cheesecake when he found out we’re newlyweds . If you’re ever in Savannah, do NOT skip this spot. Geneva’s is a soul food gem that delivers on every level!

This establishment is on point. The restaurant is very clean, excellent food, great service and awesome staff. The chicken was superbly fried and the yams were exquisite. The cornbread with various flavors was a plus. This is my first time and IT WONT BE MY LAST. I found a new favorite restaurant in Savannah!!!!

The fried chicken is some of the best in Savannah. It is fried perfectly and seasoned well. The cornbread loaf, especially the blueberry one, is always hot and delicious. The mixed greens are just okay. Be careful with the special of the day because it can end up costing more than regular menu items. This happened with the turkey wings, and they were so tiny and not as flavorful as they should have been. Service is great and it's beautiful and clean in the restaurant.

So I will say this, you need to come early or before 7pm. I ordered the 3 piece with greenbeans and mac & cheese and the pecan cornbread. My son had ordered the 2 drums and mac & cheese with regular cornbread. However, they were out of drumsticks. And they substituted it with drumettes and wings. The chicken was juicy and had this crunch that perfect. With my sons chicken it was the same crunch and juiciness. You can tell that the oil is good oil and clean. The green beans were ok but the Mac & cheese was on point. The pecan cornbread could of use more pecan or chopped pecans inside the cornbread. The cornbread by itself is fantastic. Its moist and baked to perfection. This is definitely a spot that can be a 2 times a week spot. For sure I'll be trying the yams next time.

Everything here is amazing! Nothing on the menu is a bad choice. The chicken, the catfish filets, salmon croquettes, fried pork chops, turkey wings, meatloaf, whatever you get you will love. The sides aren’t slouching either, all amazing! Especially those candied yams that would make me betray my grandma. Shouts out to DeAndre for his fantastic service. I’ve had this food more than once but my in-house experience was so good.
