Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room Savannah Reviews from The Last Year
Worth the wait
As so many other visitors have commented - Mrs Wilkes is such a worthwhile experience. The line is long but organised. They take in 4 x 10 people in the first sitting then after about 29 mins a second set of 4x 10 people. As great niece says in her welcome - once you are in there are no more waits as the tables are set with so many southern comfort dishes including the infamous fried chicken. Every dish is yummy. Eating with at least 8 other strangers is only temporarily uncomfortable as the ice is easily broken by discussing the delicious food. You pay your $30 per head on leaving - no cards accepted just cash or cheque. Highly recommend.
Mrs. Wilkes is the Southern Comfort Food Grandma Everyone Needs!
A true southern comfort food experience. Start your day by skipping breakfast...trust me, if you don't, you will wish you had! Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room is a scenic walk from the river front. We arrived at 10:45 am and were the second couple in line. When we left the line wrapped around the corner! I can appreciate there's a long wait if you are not in the first or second group to eat. You will be guided in to sit at a table with about 10 other people. Don't be shy, you may be amazed at who you meet! We had such a great time eating and conversing with our tablemates, one of which was Mr. Wilkes, I completely forgot to take photos...a first for me! But a true testament to how delicious the food and amazing the company was! Food is served family style. It is all you can eat. Bring a second stomach, you will need it! We never felt rushed. It is well worth the $30 per person charge. 🛑 They only accept cash or check. But don't fear, there is an ATM on site for those who forget. Mrs. Wilkes is the southern comfort food Grandma everyone needs!
Total hit!
The best chicken I've had in my life! Everything was really good! Highly recommend, even waiting an hour with a hurt back!
It is such a landmark! If you don't mind the wait outside
It is such a landmark! If you don't mind the wait outside and like to meet new people from all over the country, this is the place to go. You will share more than a table as you share food and life stories with those seated at your table. Great souther staples in the menu served family style.
One of my favorite southern experiences!
Wonderful experience. This was our third visit. The food is just delicious. My favorite is the fried chicken. The staff are so friendly and helpful! Even got to meet some of Mrs. Wilkes family members. You really should make a point to visit! You will not be disappointed.
Food was amazing! Worth every minute of standing in line,
Food was amazing! Worth every minute of standing in line, everything is already set out on the table for you as soon as you are seated. Fried chicken, fried okra, collard greens, EVERYTHING was amazing. It's a family style restaurant that feels like being at a Sunday family dinner. I could not recommend this place enough.
The Best Southern Home Cooking Favorites
Looking for DELICIOUS southern home cooking favorites? Mrs. Wilkes' Dining Room is where you need to go. The food is traditional, fresh, full of flavor and plentiful. It was enjoyable and interesting talking with those at your communal table. We had a special treat, the lovely Mrs. Wilkes' sat with us. Without a doubt, the time we visit Savannah, Mrs. Wilkes' Dining Room will be on our itinerary.
As has been previously stated bring cash and get there
As has been previously stated bring cash and get there early. We got there at 10:20 on a Friday and didn't get seated til 12. Not much to do in line except for people watching. Other than the line to the restaurant was a pretty quiet street. It was encouraging to see that people could barely walk when they left the restaurant. Easy to find, just look for the long line. Served family style with the food already at the table when you are seated. Over 20 side dishes, fried chicken, pulled pork. I was so excited I forgot to take pictures. Best fried chicken I can remember. The sides were okay, perhaps I didn't pay too much attention to the sides after eating so much chicken. Skip the desserts, stick to the chicken. Would get there before 10:20
Nothing like a family style restaurant.
As soon as you sit down food is served. Not a few dishes either. A plethora of sides well seasoned along with crispy fried chicken and some cornbread and biscuits. And it's basically all you can eat for a reasonable price. Then they bring out desserts as well. I almost fell asleep at the table.. lol!!. I would visit this place every visit to Savannah.
Came in for lunch and was beyond pleased with the food, the
Came in for lunch and was beyond pleased with the food, the atmosphere and the service. I recommend to arrive before they open because they always have a long line - but I is worth the wait! It is family style service so you share a large table with other guests. They must have placed over 25 different food items for us to share. I tried to take small portions to be able to try everything, but it was impossible. The fried chicken was amazing well actually everything was delicious. Bring cash because they don't accept any other type of currency.
This was our first time here, even though I had lived in
This was our first time here, even though I had lived in Savannah for several years, for some reason I never made the time to check this place out even though I heard fantastic reviews. Well, it did not disappoint. Make sure you come hungry! We arrived about 1115 and we're in the second seating, only had to wait about 20 minutes. Hostess outside gives a great history of the place while you wait. Once we were seated at a large table with another small group, the spread was laid out before us. As a kid growing up in rural Louisiana, this reminded me of Sunday dinner at my grandmother's house. From the piping hot fried chicken to every delicious southern side dish you could imagine, everything was phenomenal. A few of my favorites were the cabbage, turnip, greens, black-eyed peas, and fried okra. The fried chicken, was some of the best I've ever had. You definitely won't leave here hungry, and save room for dessert! We will definitely be coming back on our next trip.
Totally Worth the Wait
The food is as delicious as you hope it’ll be! Here’s how it works (posting these details because I couldn’t find this info when I searched prior to going): We arrived at 10:15 on a Friday and the line was already about 80ish people long. We were finally seated a few minutes after noon. There are eight tables that each sit eight. So, if you’re further back in line than 64, you won’t get seated when they first open. Once they seat all of them, no one else will be seated until a full table leaves. All of the food and sweet tea is already on the table when you sit down. Don’t worry about not getting to each bowl of food, they’ll be refilled if you need more. I read some advice to take one spoonful of each thing - that’s great advice. There’s a TON of different dishes. And definitely save room for dessert, both options are absolutely delicious. The staff are all super sweet, we didn’t feel at all rushed. But, knowing there was still a line of folks waiting, the kind thing to do is finish up, get up, pay and go. You’ll need a bit of walking around to work that meal off! No credit cards accepted, by the way, so make sure you remember to bring cash.
Great Experience
Absolutely wonderful. This is a must when in Savannah. Great food! Great Atmosphere! Great Staff! Located on a scenic street. The family style experience is one to experience. You get to meet new people and enjoy great food. It was definitely worth the wait in line.
Loved this place.
You definitely have to get there early to wait in line! Love the family atmosphere. They make you feel like this is their home and you are just over for supper. The food is all waiting at the table when you sit down. So many sides I couldn't even count. Highlights for me were the creamed corn, fried okra, and okra and tomatoes. Chicken was delicious and they also served a roast and pulled pork. Save room for the little dessert at the end!
Simply the best Southern food you'll ever have, in a family
Simply the best Southern food you'll ever have, in a family style setting. If you come within 50 miles in this place, you must go.
It's all true; the food is that good and it is cash only
It's all true; the food is that good and it is cash only just as The Good Lord intended (taxation is theft). More importantly, let's talk about the rain or shine WAIT and how to appropriately do so: Get in line an hour before they open OR don't bother coming. Seriously. Assuming you do, have coffee, bottled water, an umbrella, some deodorant, sun visor, face wipes, dry shampoo and maybe a banana or an apple with you: It is a LONG wait on a sidewalk with absolutely nothing comfortable nearby. Electing someone to stand in line for your party will result in your party not getting seated. Furthermore, the waiting in line is part of the process: This is when all of the socializing and mingling takes place as once you are inside, it's all business (more about that later). Did I mention a long wait? In a line? On a sidewalk, elbow to bum hole? Good. With that in mind, this is not a place for kids under 12. There are marrywanna seegars, beer funnels and the occasional debauchery one may associate with a frat house. The neighborhood itself is an AirBNB hot spot for sex, drugs and rock n roll. If the thought of your grandma reliving the first time she saw Mick Jagger frightens you, it's possible this Waffle House patrons after a bar night line isn't for you. Most people are dressed in a "come as you are" outfit; Some ran out of their hotel with wet heads and in stretchy pants while others clearly partied all night and this is the final stop before retiring to sleep off their espresso Martinis turned Jager Bombs: Just congratulate the bride-to-be and hand her maid of honor $10 to cover the flamboyant male stripper who is still clearly working but is now well into OT. Mingle in the line. No one is dressing up to come here. There are people from all 4 corners of the globe of a wide demographic and you all share the common trait of FOOD being your love language. Otherwise you wouldn't wait 2 hours. We had front row seats of a man busting his wife coming out of one of the AirBNB's across the street. I don't partake in the devil's lettuce however it was plentiful and peacefully offered and passed around. A lady with a Shitti insulated backpack on had everything from Jello Shots to Jameson Picklebacks for $2 cash. Some older guy had a baby doll in a stroller and offered the booger sugar for $20. Cash only. There were tobacco smokers and sweed smokers and then *bam* a toddler appeared. I cannot stress this enough: The line the neighborhood and the wait is not kid friendly. Get a sitter! When the line does move, it does so in increments of 10 every 3 minutes. One thing about Mrs Wilkes is they know how to pack the house and turnover tables which are, again, 10 tops. You will be herded inside like cattle, table set with food already placed and instructed to eat. And eat you will: This is not the time for talking, we already did that outside. For 2 hours. You're given 20 minutes, 25 at most, to pass dishes, funnel the greatness into your face and after one opportunity for any food or drink refills, your wait staff appears with dessert selections. Grab two. Inhale those. Take your dishes to the window, leave a $60 cash with the cashier and get on back to wherever you will be sleeping the experience off. HECK YES I recommend this place. If you do nothing else in Savannah this is wholly worth the travel to experience.
This is a legendary place when coming to Savannah.
You'll know you're in the right place when you see a ridiculous long line for lunch. I recommend coming early before they open which is 11 am. It's normal to stand in line for over an hour or more. It depends on when you got there. It's $30 with tax included for all you can eat southern food. Cash or check only. Once it's your turn, you and your group sit at a table and share with another group of strangers. If you're a social person then you'll have no problem starting up a conversation. Food portions are generous since you're sharing and passing it around. Just to clarify, they do not rush you. You simply just eat until you're full then they bring you dessert at the end. I loved the tea, it was not too sugary. I would say they had the best fried chicken I've ever tasted. Very succulent and moist inside. Skin is full of flavor from the seasonings. I loved the food overall and wished I could come here often.
Semi southern. Good gives a bad name for southern cooking
The food is out of a can or box. The banana pudding is jello with a few banana and wafers out of box. It is cooked southern style. Not worth the time or money.
Best southern food in Georgia!
This was the best food I've had in Georgia! Fun experience eating with strangers. There was a wait but it was so worth it. Recommend to arrive 45 min before opening. Food was fantastic! Everything I imagined southern food to be. All the side dishes were incredible and loved the fried chicken. Staff was very pleasant. Highly recommend!
Fantastic Southern food, highly recommend
What a fantastic family style restaurant. If you love Southern cooking at it's best, then you have to eat here. You meet some interesting people Dine on a large number of veggies and meat And all is included, good, drinks, dessert, bread. I will be back there again!!!
Best restaurant in Savannah
This is a must when you visit Savannah. The wait is worth it. The food and service is top notch. All home cooked and the variety that is given to try is wonderful.
