Savannah has officially unveiled a game-changer in its already vibrant food scene. The Ann Savannah, Apartments by Marriott Bonvoy, has introduced Little James—a restaurant that’s not just about eating; it’s an experience. This isn’t your average Southern dining spot; it’s where Mediterranean elegance meets Southern hospitality. Located in the heart of Savannah’s historic district, this restaurant promises to be the next culinary phenomenon that every local and visitor will be talking about.
A New Era for Savannah Dining
Savannah is known for its stunning beauty, rich history, and warm, welcoming people. But Little James adds a fresh, vibrant twist to this beloved city’s culinary landscape. It’s a place that captures the essence of Southern charm while bringing in something new—something daring. The restaurant’s blend of Mediterranean flavors with Savannah’s time-honored hospitality offers a dining experience that’s bound to leave a lasting impression.
From the moment you step inside, it’s clear that Little James is set to become an instant classic. The vibe is sophisticated yet cozy, modern yet steeped in tradition. And that’s just the beginning.
Mediterranean Flavors Meet Southern Comfort
Little James is designed to be a place for every moment of the day. Whether you’re starting your morning with a fresh, flaky pastry or winding down with a carefully crafted cocktail, this spot has it all. The all-day menu is packed with mouthwatering dishes that pay homage to both Mediterranean staples and Southern comfort foods.
Start your day right with signature morning dishes like the Egg and Tomato Sandwich on house-made focaccia, featuring the unexpected yet perfect combination of halloumi and hummus. Or go for the Mediterranean Bacon, Egg, and Cheese, which packs a punch with pancetta and brie on ciabatta. These morning offerings are just a hint of what’s to come.
As the day unfolds, Little James transforms into a lively dining destination that draws in guests from all walks of life. For lunch or a light snack, you can’t go wrong with Boquerones Toast, topped with Spanish anchovies. Or perhaps a traditional Greek salad, inspired by Athens’ finest, will hit the spot. Don’t miss the Brie & Kale Panini, either—it’s a perfect balance of creamy and crispy. And if you’re craving something even more indulgent, their artisan flatbreads are the perfect choice, with each one more mouthwatering than the last.
From Day to Night: The Transformation of Little James
When the sun sets, Little James shifts gears once again, inviting guests to stay a while longer. The ambiance transforms into an intimate evening retreat with cocktails that will take your taste buds on a journey. Expect a menu of vibrant drinks that blend Italian and Mediterranean influences, giving a cheeky nod to Southern heritage. Signature cocktails like Little Sunrise, Paradise Punch, and Julep in Transit pack tropical flavors with a Mediterranean twist—crafted from the finest ingredients.
What’s even more exciting? Their zero-proof beverage program! If you’re looking for something refreshing without the alcohol, Little James has you covered with equally satisfying options.
Coffee lovers, rejoice! If you’re a fan of coffee cocktails, you’re in for a treat. Little James offers innovative takes on classics like the espresso martini and Irish cream that will make your day or night just that much better.
An Interior That Exudes Modern Elegance and Southern Warmth
The restaurant’s interior is as much a part of the experience as the food. Designed by INC Architecture & Design, the space is a masterpiece that effortlessly combines Southern warmth with Mediterranean flair. The atmosphere is relaxed yet refined, with rich textures and inviting colors that create an inviting and intimate vibe.
A wraparound bar is the centerpiece of the design, easily transitioning from a morning café to a bustling nighttime social hub. The green-painted ceiling creates a fresh and airy feel, while sage floral wallpaper adds a layer of warmth. The custom wood screen, inspired by Savannah’s historic shutters, divides the space in a way that maintains an open, yet cozy atmosphere.
There’s something about the interiors of Little James that feels perfectly in tune with Savannah’s history. The graphic elements that pay homage to Savannah’s founder, General James Oglethorpe, bring a sense of nostalgia to the space, blending the past and the present in a way that feels organic and deliberate.
A True Savannah Experience with a Mediterranean Twist
At its core, Little James is more than just a restaurant; it’s a celebration of everything that makes Savannah special. The southern hospitality, the relaxed pace, and the warmth of the people are all evident in the way the space is designed and in the way guests are treated. This is a place where you feel like you belong, whether you’re a local or a first-time visitor.
And then there’s the food—oh, the food. The Mediterranean-inspired dishes are fresh, exciting, and bold. Little James takes a chance on flavors that might seem unexpected but work seamlessly together. It’s an exciting culinary adventure that’s sure to leave you craving more.
Perfect for Any Occasion
