Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room

107 W. Jones St., Savannah, GA - (912) 232-5997

The menu changes daily so regulars can have something different every day (although you can always count on fried chicken).

A vintage photo of Mrs. Wilkes' place from a cookbook she published in 1976.  Nothing's changed ... especially not the great food inside!
