Some steakhouses to make any Father‘s Day special!


  • Stone and Webster Chophouse – A modern chophouse where the legacy of Savannah’s historic power plant still exists and new energy can be seen with premium selections of steaks, chops, and seafood paired with handcrafted cocktails. Come experience an American dining room that combines rustic elements from old architecture mixed together in sleek surroundings which offer you either cozy conversation or more lively scenes.

  • Madame Butterfly – There is something about a good steak that can make anyone feel like they’re in heaven. This Korean Steakhouse indulges on only the highest quality of meats. They provide exclusive cuts from their Master Chefs and specially selected beef from the renowned Myers Farm of North Carolina. Every cut is hot and caramelized to perfection. Read more.
  • The Steakhouse on Whitemarsh Island – A hidden gem tucked away on Whitemarsh Island, It provides a nice atmosphere when you want to get away from the busy downtown area, Certainly not fancy, but homey and comfortable. The staff are attentive and provide excellent customer service. The steaks and chops are cooked to perfection. I highly recommend the Tomahawk. Read more.

Around Town


Food

  • This Japanese pub serves ramen and small plates of Japanese street food. Both sit-down restaurant and sidle-up bar, Ukiyo has seating for 100 inside, including sixteen seats at a superb kitchen-view bar, and twenty more outside.🍣 (Facebook) Read more.

Ship

  • A 1,000+ foot cargo ship runs aground in the Savannah River. It happened around 6 p.m yesterday near Fort Jackson. The Coast Guard marine safety unit is investigating the incident. ⚓ (WJCL) Read more.

Coffee

  • The Culturist Union (TCU), a coffeehouse and artisan marketplace centered around the artistic and social empowerment of Black creators, proudly announces its upcoming grand opening located at 3129 Bull Street in Savannah. In addition to being a full-service coffeehouse, TCU boasts Good Citizen coffee; tea from the locally-owned Ashford Tea Company; organic, house-made syrups; sugar cane from Promised Land Farms in Port Wentworth; homemade sandwiches and pastries; books, candles, spices, and more made by local Black artists and artisans; and murals by Savannah-based artists, Arielle Lang and Nae’Keisha Jones.☕ (Savannah Tribune)

Theater

  • The old adage goes: “if you build it, they will come.” For Savannah Repertory Theatre, the building is coming along but there is still some help from the community that is needed. The theater company broke ground on their future home at 402 E. Broughton St., the former Southern Motors dealership. The end goal is to open a community-run theater in downtown Savannah and bring a level of professional theater that is not commonplace around the city. 🎭(SavannahNow)

Vouchers

  • The Chatham County Police Department has become the first law enforcement agency in Georgia to partner with the national ‘Lights On!’ program that provides vouchers for car repairs – instead of tickets — for violations like broken tail lights and signals that can result in a traffic stop.
