My wife and I visited Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room while celebrating our 45th wedding anniversary in…read moreSavannah, Georgia. 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.

Where to begin. There was hype of this restaurant and it lived up to it all!…read moreIt is a beautiful home that is a restaurant along a street with old homes and trees lining and overhanging the road. The hospitality is off the charts. You need to come early at least a half hour as the line quickly grows. You sit and eat family style. The host will assign you to your table with others to fill it up. 8 to a table. There is sweet tea waiting for you and dish after dish of goodness! Then they bring out the fried chicken on platters. 21 different bowls of southern dishes- okra, rutabagas, greens, beans, corn, biscuits and corn bread.... Oh my there was a lot. You will not go hungry as the staff are near each table and bringing refills of items needed. Then when you've had your fill, they bring by peach cobbler with vanilla ice cream on top and/or banana pudding! They take cash or check only. They thankfully had an ATM inside. But the man at the cash register said we could leave and go to our own bank if we wanted and come back to pay!! That wouldn't happen at very many places. Southern hospitality, great food, memories- it is all here. Don't miss this place when you come to Savannah!!

One of our breakfast spots while visiting Savannah. Of course, I came to Yelp to find this place…read more The reviews were decent and the food looked like food I would get at my great aunt's or grandmother's kitchen. Our wait was minimal. The young man who served us was attentive and pleasant. The prices are phenomenal for what you get. They have a long list of meats you pair with eggs, grits/potatoes, and a biscuit or toast. I ordered the salmon patty (salmon croquette), grits, biscuit, and added potatoes. They give you plasticware and a styrofoam cup but your food is served on real dishes. It didn't take too long for our food. The biscuit comes with melted butter on top, but I needed butter for INSIDE my biscuit. I requested it, but it was also melted. Nothing wrong with that, just different. Just as the pictures looked...it was like someone's grandmother was in the kitchen cooking. If there is a negative, my croquette could've used more cornmeal on the outside and definitely some mixed in to bind it together. Other than that, my breakfast was DELISH!

We were seated in the best little nook on the lower level, just off the bar. We could hear the live music trickle in as we enjoyed dinner. The food was amazing, from start to finish. The drinks were some of the best we've ever had. We had the best service from the bartender at the bar while we waited for our table to be ready to our server - who was full of recommendations and suggestions. We had a little bit of everything, sharing the crab cakes, mac and cheese poppers, she crab soup, spring rolls. For our main course, we had the salmon and the pork tenderloin. Everything was full of flavor and perfectly seasoned. We wish we would have had room for dessert, but our dinner was too filling. This is the perfect place and we will be back!

Since everything is made fresh, there can be a bit of a wait--but it's well worth it. There's limited space and no AC inside, so keep that in mind if you plan to wait on-site.

Can't wait for round two!
