    I'm not sure if five stars is enough! From the moment we entered (as soon as they opened!) everything was perfection. We sat at the bar - not for cocktails but because we like sitting at bars. I wasn't sure and asked Simon, our waiter, if the chicken & biscuits was good, he didn't hesitate and totally steered me in the right direction. The biscuits were flaky, with a bit of spicy pimento & crispy bacon to help the sausage gravy & chicken. Sooooo good. Wayne had a veggie scramble with crispy potatoes, veggies, biscuit & gravy. I don't think we will have lunch - too full from a great breakfast.

    AMAZING, per usual! I absolutely love The 5 Spot, the food is always freshly prepared, so flavorful and always compliments one another, the service was pretty good and the staff was friendly and welcoming. I can't wait to come back!

    Went for lunch. Also got the collard and bacon dip but forgot to snap a pic, but it was my favorite. On the po'boy, the shrimp were fried very well, bread toasted nicely, with the tomatoes were whole sliced versus decided, and something was a tad too salty but I don't know if it was the shrimp or the sauce on them. Good fries. Fair prices. Great customer service. Clean restaurant, though it smelled a tad bit like cleaning chemicals. Fast seating with ample parking.

    I've always wanted to try the 5 Spot and I'm so glad we were able to try it today! Located in the Habersham Village- there's a lot of parking available. It wasn't busy for a Saturday afternoon. The employees were all very kind. The hostess didn't bring us a high chair for our toddler, but luckily they were within viewing distance where we could grab one. The restaurant is pretty spacious. The menu has a great mix of different tavern-like foods. We opted for some sandwiches and our toddler got Mac n cheese and the tenders. The food was delicious. We all ate everything off of our plates! I got a margarita and it was $10 for a good-sized drink. For a family of 3 we spent about $60 with tip. Final Verdict: I do think we will be back! They seem to have a lot of happy hour deals and the brunch plates look like a good deal!

    I returned to this restaurant 5 years later when back in the area and was disappointed in the changes to service, flavor & cost. I couldn't get over that a simple meal like low country shrimp & grits was $20. I chose the fried green tomatoes appetizer for my meal at about $14. While it was a crunchy crust, it hit the flavor of the tomatoe slices. The menu did not note that the "remoulade" was "nose-running spicy". I also chose a blueberry bread pudding, filled with blueberries and flavorful under a nice vanilla ice cream. It was not evenly warm tho, with cold spots. The biggest disappointment was the ten minutes it took to get service and a simple glass of water. There were ample (3) servers socializing in the small register area, and 2 socializing at the hostess stand, it just didn't seem anyone was there to work. the place was relatively empty at a meal time. Maybe others noticed the failings in service, taste and cost this time too.

    I was surprised to see how low the rating was. I've only been here once but the service was great, we didn't have to wait long, and the shrimp and grits were very good! We got the parm Brussel sprouts for an appetizer which i would definitely order again

    The food was great, and came out quickly. Bonus, they have delicious ranch. We were there for lunch around noon. I like the calm day time ambiance of the restaurant and imagine it's a little more hectic in the evenings. The service was good as well, kind welcome and friendly service.

    Yep. He huungry again. Food- amazing. Love and miss this place but visit it almost every time I'm in over from the Boro. Oh and happy hour 4-6 M-F with five amazing drinks that are twofer one! Service- great wait staff and some of the best and friendliest bartenders in town. Ambiance- huge upgrade from the old breakfast place. And they've updated recently including barstools , chairs n HVAC. Thank you! And I'm friendly with many of their staff. Please please hurry up and get one in Statesboro!

These are a must try if you like wings. Chicken and pancake tacos were delicious. Pancakes had a touch of sweetness. Fried chicken inside with a spicy mayo.

One had fried banana peppers. The other side more classic with toppings. Son said it was really good. Others had the ahi tuna salad. Tuna was perfectly rare. Salad was good and the wasabi dressing had great flavor without being too spicy. Service was quick even though jam packed. Also very friendly.

    Treylor Park was probably exactly what we needed at 11:30 at night…read more It's somewhere between a diner and a sports bar, but the decor is what makes it. The whole place is designed to feel like the inside of a trailer--spray-painted antique chandeliers, old pictures of different trailer parks, and random little details everywhere. It's kitschy, but very intentional, and honestly pretty cool. We came in late after a 4h drive into town after work, and the staff was still super friendly and accommodating. No "we're about to close" energy, which I appreciated. We started with the creamy collard dip, which is basically their take on spinach-artichoke dip, but with collards. Really good. I do think the chips were a little too heavy for the dip--a thinner chip would've been perfect--but that's a small note. The chicken pancake tacos were probably my favorite. The chicken was fried perfectly and still really moist. And at this point, I'm convinced Savannah just knows how to cook chicken. Everywhere we went, the chicken was consistently good. My partner got the grilled apple pie sandwich, which has fried chicken, grilled apples and bacon. He's not even a big pork person, but that bacon was so crispy and the whole combination just worked. Even the waffle fries were good--crispy, fresh and actually seasoned. We had the Grateful Dead and Wicked Kiwi cocktails, plus a couple of shots, and the drinks were strong, good and reasonably priced. Honestly, I don't have a ton of notes here. It's not trying to be some elevated dining experience. It's just a really good late-night spot with good food, strong drinks, friendly service and a fun atmosphere. We sat inside because Savannah in August was not about to have us sitting on anybody's patio. Definitely recommend, especially if you're looking for somewhere to eat late. It was a vibe, the food was good, and it did exactly what it needed to do.

I managed about ten, and everything was well prepared, generous, and full of flavor.

Before our trip, one of my fraternity brothers told me that if I wanted some of the best Southern soul food in Savannah, I had to visit Mrs. Wilkes. He also warned me that there would be a long wait. Let me just say--he was absolutely right on both counts! We arrived at the restaurant and stood in line outside in the rain. We didn't get seated until 1:00 PM. Normally, I would not wait that long for a meal, but for the record, and I can't believe I'm saying this--it was worth every minute of the wait. The experience was unlike any restaurant I've ever visited. My wife and I were seated at a large table with approximately eight other people whom we had never met. Yet within minutes, it felt like we were dining with family. The atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and filled with genuine Southern hospitality. The food was simply outstanding. Every traditional Southern dish you can imagine was brought to the table and passed family-style from person to person. The home-cooked flavors reminded me of the meals many of us grew up enjoying. Everything was delicious, and the desserts were just as impressive. What made the experience even more special was the sense of community. People of different backgrounds and races were dining together, sharing food, conversation, and fellowship. The staff worked together seamlessly and went out of their way to make every guest feel welcome. While we waited in line, a gracious lady shared the history of the restaurant and the legacy of Mrs. Wilkes herself. The staff even provided umbrellas to guests who didn't have one--including me--which was a thoughtful gesture that spoke volumes about their commitment to customer service. From the food, to the hospitality, to the rich history and unique family-style dining experience, Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room exceeded every expectation. If you're visiting Savannah, this is not just a meal--it's an experience. I proudly give Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room a 5 out of 5-star rating and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Savannah.

Been here for both dinner and lunch. All this said, I think my approach to this review is comprehensive. With regard to food, I think they have a decent (not expansive) selection of food, which I think lends itself to quality. They do most things really well. This said, I do think there is inconsistency based on staff at the restaurant. On one occasion they have accommodated a request, and on another I was denied the exact same request. I found this frustrating. On one occasion I've also seen management talk down to staff here, which is a big no no for me. All people (especially staff) are due respect and this rubbed me the wrong way. This was an isolated incident but it definitely made my dining experience uncomfortable. Especially because I was getting excellent service from the server!!! I've always had quality service from servers here. In the future, I would come to Rhett for convenience as a hotel guest (the hotel is lovely), but would likely not spend my money if I wasn't staying at the hotel. Overall- it's good food, decent ambiance... but there are soooo many good options in Savannah. You have to be exceptional to stand out in that city.
