Day 4 - The Crab Shack And The Grey

 
One of our favorite restaurants that we like to visit when we take a trip to Savannah is actually located in Tybee Island - The Crab Shack. We had visited there twice last year.

The restaurant is located only 20 minutes from the cemetery, and since it is super casual, there is outside seating and we were already hot and sweaty, we figured it was a great place to go eat.

We drove through the grasslands/marsh to get there...

The Crab Shack...

We had a table with a great view once again...

It was definitely warm outside, but the big fans they have all around the restaurant are a big help.

We shared the deviled crab appetizer and then we both had snow crab for our entrees...

We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch and went to visit the alligators really quick. We then headed back to the hotel to get cleaned up and rest for the afternoon.

After showering and resting for a number of hours, we had a dinner reservation at a restaurant called "The Grey" that evening. We had heard wonderful things about it and I knew that it was a tough reservation to get. I made sure I got a reservation for us as soon as I was allowed (a couple months early).

It was really warm that evening, and once again we were dressed up, so we got another Uber to take us to the restaurant. (Come to find out, the restaurant was located directly next to one of the buildings where Briana's was taking a class that week at SCAD.)

As I mentioned, I got dressed for the occasion...

The Grey Restaurant...



The Grey Restaurant was built in a 1938 Greyhound Bus Terminal. It is really amazing!

The front of the terminal serves as the bar area and that is where Doug and I had drinks and waited until we were called to our table (we got there a little early)...

We were called into the main part of the restaurant pretty quickly (it was really cool)...


We ordered the rice balls with green goddess dressing (appetizer), the chicken country captain and roasted potatoes. Doug and I split everything...



The chicken country captain was one of the best dishes I've ever had in my life! It was beyond amazing! I still dream about it - seriously.

Then we got a little refreshing sweet at the end of the meal...

There was a painting on the wall of The Grey that just intrigued me. I really loved it - and there was an interesting story behind it...

After dinner, we were full and happy, and we headed back to the hotel. The next day was going to be super chill and laid back. That's up next...
