The Pearl is my favorite restaurant, but I usually go to the Dublin location. This is my first visit to this location. They’re both wonderful. Food is always wonderful. We were celebrating our anniversary and kind of went all-out. The shellfish tower is amazing. The jalepeno cornbread is delicious. Entrees were great (scallops special, pub burger). Drinks are phenomenal; “The Cure” is indeed the cure. Our server Shawn was great. He was warm, welcoming, calm, and professional. Music is always great. Nice atmosphere, it’s warm and cozy. Shawn gave us complimentary desserts to go for our anniversary which I thought was so nice. We spent a decent amount of money here and it’s absolutely worth it, in my opinion (but it also doesn’t have to be a super expensive place either, we just ordered a lot of food/drinks this time. Happy hour specials are especially phenomenal). Love this place, both locations!

The gumbo was amazing. My wife and I could not stop eating it despite wanting to save room for the main course. I had the salmon which had a sauce on it that was THE best sauce I have ever had. My wife had the pasta and she was speechless the whole time it was in front of her. The staff was amazing and the ambiance was a smooth vibe. Whoever decorated should get a raise because that place had TONS of detail into everything.

Great service - Chris and Michelle were very kind and attentive! Food was great as always - the mussels and rigatoni are a fav of ours, and we will be returning for them frequently! Sycamore is one of our favorite spots in GV for coffee, a quick bite, cocktail or nice quiet dinner on the patio.

I have wanted to try this place for a while. I was so happy that we did. My wife and I sat down and Michael was so attentive and helping us. From the choices of bourbons that he liked and I liked and we collaborated on some different options. The fried green tomatoes and fried chicken and flat iron steak options were very tasty. Everything was really wonderful. I cannot wait to come back for another try.

The Pearl is a Gem I’ve had this place in my sights for years. We finally made it there and so happy we did. We arrived early and were seated immediately at our requested River View table. The location in Dublin is amazing looking out over the S bridge. Our server was Jenny and she did a great job. She explained the menu, worked around our allergy, kept our drinks filled and told us a little about the surrounding area. Enough about all of that - the food was fantastic. We had the Fish Roll (like a lobster roll) @ $20, Peel & Eat Shrimp (more like shrimp cocktail) @ 23 and N’awlins Style Baked Oysters (amazing!) @ $9. We enjoyed this meal experience very much.
