🍽️ Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room Savannah

Located in Savannah's Historic District, Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room is not just a restaurant—it's a culinary institution. Since 1943, this family-run boarding house has been serving family-style Southern comfort food at communal tables, where strangers become friends over heaping platters of fried chicken, collard greens, mac and cheese, and sweet tea. ✨ The Mrs. Wilkes Experience: The atmosphere is homey and bustling—think checkered tablecloths, shared benches, and the inviting aroma of down-home cooking. Guests are seated together and pass around 20+ Southern dishes like okra stew, cornbread dressing, black-eyed peas, and banana pudding. There's no menu—you get what's freshly made that day. Be prepared to wait in line (it's part of the tradition!), but the feast is worth it. Cash only. It’s a place designed for community, generosity, and experiencing the heart of Southern hospitality in its most authentic form. 📝 Short Social Media Caption: “A legendary Southern feast in Savannah! 🍗 Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room brings people together over heaping family-style platters of fried chicken, collards, and pure hospitality.
