    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!

    Stopped into the 5 spot today after working out in the area and it was good as always. The food and drinks were very good. There was somewhat of a wait, but it went by fast.

    During our Savannah eating bonanza, we had brunch at Common Restaurant. The brunch menu is fairly…read moreextensive, so we had some difficulty choosing what to order....but definitely come hungry because the portions are large and the food is pretty rich. To share amongst the table, we ordered the cinnamon toast banane and crispy gouda grit croquettes. Thumbs up on both, particularly the croquettes which were the right balance of gooey and structured enough to eat with the delicious sauce on the side. The cinnamon toast banane was not so much toast as cinnamon rolls with bananas foster; the cinnamon rolls were really tasty and the bananas foster was good, though the bourbon flavor was strong. For my entree, I ordered one of the lighter vegetarian dishes - the mushroom tartine with tomato soup. I think it is one of the lighter dishes - certainly lighter than what my dining companions ordered - but it was still quite rich with a fair amount of gouda fondue in the tomato bisque soup. The mushroom tartine/sandwich was really flavorful with the pesto, cheese and tons of mushrooms. The restaurant is quite large with an upstairs seating area.

    I will say the food is very delicious here. We enjoyed everything we ordered. The waiter was also…read moregreat and pleasant. However, the lady at the front was not welcoming to us with our children. She said upfront that there are no kid menus, high chairs and strollers had to be placed elsewhere. I get it, it is good for us to know but it came across a bit unfriendly. She also did not want my daughter to momentarily sit in the waiting area with the other guests. I would understand if this was a fine dining upscale restaurant that was quiet but the ambiance was very ordinary. There was regular restaurant noise and people dressed casually. If you are going to advertise your establishment as "good for kids" please consider the way you are talking to families who want to dine here.

I got their chicken sandwich, while the rest of my family got the Dubai chocolate French toast, Bubble and squeak. My grilled chicken sandwich had a vast majority of flavors varying in the sandwich. The chicken was my only set back, it came off as under seasoned and bland, while the white bread and cheese melted together with the fresh lettuce. I also got their iced matcha latte with lavender syrup, which I was heavily surprised from how flavorful and sugary it was, I highly recommend this drink to any matcha lovers out there. The Dubai chocolate French toast was beautifully put together and delicious, shared across my family. From what I heard the bubble and squeak was amazing and was not too heavy or dull in flavor and is a great vegetarian option. Overall, the atmosphere inside was very light and put together, the creme walls contrasted perfectly with the historic stone walls.

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.

The refund came through exactly as he said it would. To be clear, the food on my visit genuinely missed, and I'm not pretending otherwise. But Tyler responded publicly, owned it, and followed through completely. That kind of accountability is rare, and it's what earned the bump. Credit where it's due on the space, too -- the ambiance is genuinely great. Warm, candle-lit dining room, an open kitchen, a well-stocked bar, and a covered patio that had a real buzz to it. It's a spot that looks and feels like somewhere you want to be, which is exactly why I'd give the kitchen another shot based on how the owner runs this place. --- Original review (2 stars): Disappointing birthday dinner. Came in for my birthday and left underwhelmed. Our server Troy was the one bright spot -- professional and attentive all night. Caesar salad: Several bitter pieces of lettuce, and no black pepper offered or available. Faroe Island salmon: Overly buttery like it had been sitting under a heat lamp. The shishito cream sauce was way too acidic -- tasted like uncooked wine or vinegar. Crispy rice cakes were bland and a strange pairing (rice blocks with salmon?). The baby bok choy was decent until the sauce drowned it out. Braised beef short rib: Tender but flavorless. The mashed potatoes tasted old, not fresh that evening. To top it off, my wife had arranged ahead of time for the birthday dessert to be brought out -- the message never reached Troy, so that moment never happened. Troy deserved better than what the kitchen sent out.
