Looking for eats in Savannah

The title says it all. In Savannah for the day and wondering if anyone could share a nice restaurant or even a casual location. Wine friendly is not a must, but, please feel free to fill this post up with all sorts of suggestions for the board as a whole.

Thanks!

Depends what you want but Elizabeth’s on 37th is my favorite restaurant there.

Closed for lunch which is a bummer. Menu looked great. Ended up at the touristy Pink House. The food was pretty good. She Crab soup and Shrimp with Grits Toast and a Ham gravy. They are now open for lunch which they started just a little bit ago.

Lunch - there is no greater place than Mrs. Wilkes. Only open M-F 11-2, got to get there and stand in line around 10:20 - 10:30, one of the best eating experiences in my life.

Family style, you will sit at a table with 9-10 other people and pass bowls. Probably not wine friendly, but a MUST!!!

Mrs. Wilkes passed about 1-2 years ago,but her family runs the place and it hasn’t skipped a beat. Featured in the book “1001 things to do before you die” or whatever the book title is.

I learned about this place way too late. 1:30 pm. Walked by, got in line before I knew what it was and brought up Yelp. Once I saw the line and was told a two hour wait and kinda went hmmmm. Then I learned they served things family style. Eyed the screaming kid in front of me while I kept getting whapped by someone making weird propeller like moves with her arms behind me and thought it might be best to find eats elsewhere.

Next time. 10am.
