Crema's Take

Savanna is a warm neighborhood gathering spot where the kitchen takes real care with both their coffee and their full breakfast menu, drawing crowds who don't mind the wait because everything—from the drinks to the pastries to the staff's genuine hospitality—feels thoughtfully done. It's the kind of place where families linger over slow sit meals and regulars return not just for the food but for the welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel like a regular from your first visit.

This is a place that should have a wait to even be seated it's so good! From the food to the drinks to the staff! Very friendly and helpful explaining the different specials. The place is really nice and festive. Definitely coming back to try more foods.

My husband and I nearly got t-boned by a blue sedan running a stop sign and flipping us off while doing so. The staff at Savanna were super welcoming and our food was delicious. Definitely part of the clean plate club. Eating here totally made us forget about the awful driver. We were pleasantly surprised how quickly our food and drinks came out. We’ll for sure come back!

Great food, great staff, great atmosphere. Food came fairly quickly. The menu had a lot of options, and they do offer a menu with pictures through a QR code. I went simple (because it was my first time) and ordered a classic French toast breakfast with an Abuelita hot chocolate on the side. Everything 10/10 - great flavor and a good quantity.

This was a beautiful place for brunch. They have wonderful and scrumptious food and drinks. I recommend for yummy, filling, and appealing cuisine. They were very accommodating, friendly, and diligent. The atmosphere is gorgeous! Staff were all amazing! 10/10 Update: I don't know why my photos didn't add. They got added today.

This place is an absolute gem!! We stopped somewhere else where the line was super long so decided to come to Savannah. Not a lot of people at this time but decided to try anyway. The food was excellent! The variety made me wonder how good it would be but let me reassure you there was NOT one thing that disappointed. The dulce de leche cappuccino- phenomenal. The trio Benedict - omg. The chocolate abuelita - pancakes we shared - heavenly. Everything else my family ordered was on point! And the service was top tier. Our water was refilled without having to ask. Very attentive. This place should be packed!!! I'm literally jealous that others have this gem in their neighborhood and I don't!
