Savvy Sliders — Restaurant in Gulfport

TL;DR summary (With 25 minute travel time accounted for: Original Savvy Slider: 4.5/5 | I wish there was one more pickle, but that is just me. Boomin' Chicken Slider: 5/5 | No notes. This was delicious English Cod Slider (Tartar): 5/5 | Shocked this was not a fish patty. Well played. Banana Pudding Custard Shake: 5/5 | I just chugged it. Never change this.

Overall Rating: 5/5 | I hope this location does well, because I've missed having something there that is worth stopping by. We finally have that again.

Was there for Grand Opening ~1 hour after they opened. Got in line for the drive-thru nearly at the Food Giant parking lot. Gentleman came out to greet me with a menu and was incredibly friendly, well spoken, polite, and very professional. Spent approximately 30 minutes in line before getting to the speaker, which for a GO is -massively impressive-, especially given that they had people constantly in and out of the lobby as well.

Ordered two of the Original Savvy Sliders, a Boomin' Chicken slider, and an English Cod with two of the Banana Pudding shakes. When I got to the window, they confirmed my order again, and you could see the crew just at the window hustling to make sure everything was going smoothly. Got my order, wished them luck, and then drove ~25 minutes home before touching any of the order.

Let me tell you something. To have your food sit in a box (And a paper bag for the single) for 25 minutes on a car ride home in a vehicle being kept at ~64F, to get inside and then eat and your food still not only be hot, but to be as absolutely incredible as it was is something scientists need to start writing papers on, because good lord it was delicious and filling.

A Note to those who have never had Savvy Sliders before:

Yes, you are going to pay more than you probably want for something that you are going to perceive as smaller than the cost allots for, but you need to remember two things: 1. This is not Krystal or White Castle. They are not serving you gut bombs. These are actual sliders with some actual thought put into them. The prices I paid (~$27USD for everything) were well worth the flavor and enjoyment I got out of my order, and if you think that is too steep a price, then you're dining at the wrong place. This is technically a gourmet food business. They are using actual quality ingredients, making everything fresh to order, and putting out a product that is exactly what it says on the label. Remember this when you're considering the fact that their 'basic/original' slider is $2.99USD(At this location, your regional...

I recently visited to try out their sliders, and overall, I had a great experience. I ordered three different sliders—the Prime Slider, the Savvy Slider, and the Signature Steak Slider—along with fries and a drink. The pricing was very fair for what I got.

The Prime and Savvy Sliders were solid choices, both earning a 4/5 from me. They were tasty, but nothing that completely blew me away. However, the Signature Steak Slider was the real standout—an easy 5/5. I would happily order just that every time and leave completely satisfied.

The fries were a pleasant surprise. At first glance, they looked like they might be over-seasoned, but they were actually seasoned perfectly, adding great flavor without being overpowering.

The only downsides were the small indoor seating area, which could be a bit cramped, and a safety hazard at the entrance. There’s a sign positioned in a spot that makes it easy to trip over in the entryway—I actually did, and I’ve included a picture to highlight the issue. It’s something the restaurant might want to reconsider for better customer safety.

Overall, I’d definitely come back, especially for that Signature Steak Slider. If you’re a fan of sliders and well-seasoned fries, it’s worth...

Listen. I don't know who this Savvy person is, but if I ever meet them, I’m shaking their hand, kissing their forehead, and demanding to be adopted. I ordered the Stale Kracker Meal and let me tell you—if that’s what stale tastes like, go ahead and throw me in the pantry and leave me there to age like fine cheese.

That slider? Crispy. Juicy. Seasoned by what I can only assume was a culinary demigod whispering secrets into a deep fryer. I took one bite and forgot my middle name. The fries? Spiritual. The drink? Cold enough to erase my childhood trauma for at least 7 minutes.

Service? Flawless. The staff handed me my food like they were delivering the Ark of the Covenant. I half expected a choir of angels to bust through the ceiling singing “MMMMM, SAVVYYYY.”

There were no weird moments, which was the weirdest part. I kept waiting for something unhinged to happen—gremlin fight? random kazoo solo? Nope. Just good food in a normal world, which honestly felt like a glitch in the matrix.

Would I go back? I’d go back right now if I weren’t writing this review with one hand and Googling how to legally marry a meal with the other.

Savvy Slider: 5/5. No notes....
