    We enjoyed a meal at the 1540 restaurant in Savannah at the Desoto Hotel recently. Our meals were very good and the service was excellent. It’s a bit pricey but we felt that our meals were generally delicious. We had oysters to start and were not impressed with them, at four dollars a piece they were the tiniest oysters I have ever had, and they were all topped with a frozen fruit topping, that we ended up scraping off because it was not nice frozen ( I don’t think it was supposed to be frozen) and actually over powered the taste of the oysters. So with that as our starters we were a bit concerned about how the mains would taste. However, we were both very happy with our delicious main course. With tip and two glasses of wine our meal came to about two hundred dollars for two adults.

    Interesting and well spiced food. We particularly liked the roasted cauliflower with dukkah and the lamb sausage.

    One of Savannah's very best. I was shocked to learn the kind of cuisine they sold as I thought it was your typical southern fare. I couldn't be more wrong. This is true world cuisine with spices from all corners of the world. Their steak tartare is among the best I've ever bad. Their pastrami rubbed duck is sensation. And their desserts are second to none. Truly things you won't find anywhere else. Kelly, the server, I've had many times and he is a true gem.

    El servicio fue excelente el mesero súper atento y los tragos perfectos. Creo que fue porque reservé a las 8:30pm y cierran a las 9pm pero la comida dejó mucho que desear, estaba fría. El precio, servicio, ambiente y tragos 10/10, pero la comida 1/10.

    I really can’t say that this restaurant has anything unique to offer, whether it’s value, or Best Buy;,... or whether it’s the originality of the menu,... the seasonings,. I will say that the service was excellent. The hostess was not so good unfortunately, but the rest of the servers and so forth were excellent.

    Wait staff was not attentive, steak and duck were very dry (steak was asked to be cooked medium rare). Restaurant was very loud.
