I went to Savoir in the Heights on a Sunday morning for brunch with my wife and our toddler. Savoir markets themselves as a chef-driven restaurant that focuses on from-scratch cooking with seasonal ingredients sourced from local farmers and vendors. Parking is valet-only, but if you don’t mind walking a couple of minutes, there is free street parking available on Heights Boulevard. Inside, the restaurant is beautiful, with a sleek bar, a stylish dining room, and an outdoor patio. They were accommodating to families and brought out a high chair for our toddler. When looking over the brunch menu, I was surprised to see that they did not offer a traditional breakfast option like eggs, bacon, and toast. I even asked if they could make something simple like that, and they said no. I’ve never encountered a brunch menu without a basic breakfast option. [BRUNCH] +Open Brunch Sandwich for $18 - BLT with truffle oil and a fried egg, served with potatoes. This was very average. It was essentially a piece of bread topped with BLT ingredients, and I ended up eating it like a standard breakfast anyway. Nothing memorable here. - 3/5 Overall, Savoir is a visually impressive restaurant with a polished atmosphere, but the food does not live up to the setting. I wouldn’t go out of my way to return.

Our family came here last night for dinner. I had read online about this place and we weren't disappointed at the end of the dinner! We had to add a person to the resy last min and they accommodated us without a problem. Rachel greeted us with a big smile and explained the specials to us. I am a big wine person and she was very patient in making suggestions and bringing samples for me to try. I had a glass of Argentinian Chardonnay, a well made wine and very reasonable. I chose this restaurant because it has something on the menu for everyone and my kids are picky and unadventurous. We got the onion soup, pizza, lamb shank, risotto, salmon and the bacon wrapped chicken. Everything was delicious! My risotto was cooked just right, not too al dente, not mushy, fresh mushrooms, not too cheesy or creamy and with just the right amount of flavor. My son who only eats burgers tried the salmon and he even liked it! The only thing we are slightly disappointed was the pizza, mostly the crust, it was bit too doughy. It was not bad, just we are more of the neopolitan type pizza lovers. It was well executed with gorgonzola, caramelized onions, arugula and prosciutto cut thinly. Brittany the manager came to check on us several times. She's also in charge of the wine program and I have to say, it's an excellent, well-thought out wine list. She selects well made wines, from different regions and varieties and are very reasonably priced. My $13 glass of Mendoza chardonnay was great. We definitely recommend this place and will be back.

My family and I just enjoyed a lovely meal at Savoir. The atmosphere is elegant but relaxed. The servers were courteous and prompt. And the food was truly delicious. I had a wonderful cocktail and steak frites with an amazing sauce au poivre. My daughter finished every last bit of her mushroom risotto, and my wife loved the beet salad. I will be back. Highly recommended.

First time back since they reopened with new ownership and new menu. Good atmosphere and service. The mezcal fleur cocktail was good. Not super floral. But definitely very smoky. So careful if that’s not your thing. Escargot was tasty and pretty standard as the dish goes. The octopus was very soft and tender, good very well; but I think the dish could use a little more salt and seasoning. Looking at the color and texture of the sauce I expected just more flavor which wasn’t there.

Had the most lovely experience. Rafael is a font of wine knowledge and has fabulous stories. The food was gorgeous - we had the fish special and the steak!
