About

Overlooking the Savannah River and Riverfront Plaza, "the home of the mud pie" is part of a nationwide chain -- and one of the better ones. It's housed in a building that predates 1790, reputed to be the oldest masonry structure in Georgia and once a sugar-and-cotton warehouse. You can enjoy a view of passing ships on the outside deck, perhaps ordering an appetizer and a drink before dinner. The bar is one of the most atmospheric along the riverfront. As in all Chart Houses, the prime rib is slow roasted and served au jus. The steaks from corn-fed beef are aged and hand cut on the premises before being chargrilled. The most expensive item is lobster. You may prefer one of the fresh catches of the day, which can be grilled to your specifications.
