Scrumpdillyicious: 700 Drayton at the Mansion on Forsyth Park

Arguably Savannah’s best restaurant, this shrine to fine dining occupies the oldest and most evocative part of the original 1888 Savanna Mansion on Forsyth Park, a formidable and lavish 17,500 square foot space enhanced with high ceilings, striking contemporary art installations and Victorian antiques. With its splashy interior, this is a one-of-a-kind spot is a true anomaly amid the city's antebellum charms, but a welcome sign of its diverse dining scene. The former Keyton Mansion was converted into a lounge and restaurant that pairs fine dining with eccentric touches like Versace leopard-print chairs and two beautifully designed cocktail lounges — Caisimir's and the Bosendorfer. The Drayton's cuisine is as artful as its stunning surroundings. Today the castle-like mansion at 700 Drayton Street houses one of Savannah’s finest restaurants, boasting an intriguingly eclectic décor and a mouth-watering menu, 700 Drayton Street Restaurant is a fabulous choice for anyone wanting to experience Savannah’s finest dining.
