My family and I took a trip out to the islands while visiting Savannah this past January. Found a great BBQ shop in a shopping center. Food service and atmosphere were great.... While I loved the mustard BBQ sauce, my kids sure did wish they made a "regular" bbq sauce.... And when our children grew restless, a younger manager came... More

I always enjoy the food at Papa's. It's so yummy that I dream about the Shrimp Salad Sandwich ! The restaurant is clean, upbeat, and has good servers. They have quick, tasty meals, that are economically priced. Try to go just before or just after the mealtime rush for best experience. Hidden location on the east side of Savannah, islands... More

I love Papa's Bar-B-Que for several reasons but keep coming back for the well-spiced black bean soup & best ever shrimp salad. I will sometimes get a pint of the salad and take it home with me to put on soft rolls that I toast for a minute or so - HEAVEN. Frank & Judy are family friends and KNOW... More

Ginger at the bar is a breath of fresh air. Try their fried pickles appetizer and black bean soup. You can't go wrong with the barbecue either. Worth the drive from the historic district for top notch barbecue! More

I love Papa's Bar-B-Que for several reasons but keep coming back for the friendlt service, yummy black bean soup (please share that recipe, Frank!), & WORLD'S BEST shrimp salad. Frank & Judy run their family-friendly restaurant like a well-oiled machine. The service I ALWAYS receive is super friendly & fast--love that! The food is among the most consistent I've found...

Not bad but the BBQ is only fair. No brisket available only pork. More

Great restaurant!! We went to Wiley's across the street and they were closed on Sunday. We were glad after we ate at Papa's! I had Brunswick stew and it was excellent! My husband had ribs and shredded pork with Cajun fries and okra--all of which were excellent! Our kids had chicken fingers and fries and it was also great. My... More

A major hobby for most of my life has been cooking. I was especially proud of my shrimp salad. Since I first tried Papa's shrimp salad, I will no longer prepare it. I just go and get Papa's!! More

Papa's has been feeding me for years and it is my all time favorite restaurant. To the person that said the shrimp sandwich was small, you have got to be kidding me! It is the biggest sandwich you can get! Enough for two people to share, in fact. Best crab stew in town and the BBQ? Forget about it! I... More

Located in a strip mall with plenty of free parking. Has a large variety of local, american, southern food. Plenty of waitresses and good service. A family place with many items to choose from. Solid food, not fancy but tasted good. A basic, good experience. Papas has been around a long time and should remain for a long time. More
