Most late-night guests walk in, but we can hold a semi-private section until around 10 PM for $1,000, which includes VIP entry and a private server for 20 guests. Additional guests are $10 each. Tables often open up around 9:30–10 PM, so walk-ins may find seating after a short wait.

Getting Here

Rideshare is the easiest! Uber and Lyft drivers sometimes confuse us with Saddlebags downstairs on River Street. Make sure your driver selects Savannah Smiles – 314 Williamson St, Savannah, GA 31401 and that you are dropped off on Williamson Street, not River Street.

Yes — we highly recommend it. It avoids parking hassles, and drop-off is simple. Just double-check that the app shows Savannah Smiles on Williamson Street before you get out of the car.

We don’t have our own parking, but there are plenty of garages and on-street options nearby. City parking decks are usually more affordable than hotel garages, and all are just a short walk from the venue.

Arrival and Timing

The show starts at 8 PM. Arrive early for the best seating — it is much easier to find a seat before 7 PM.

Sure. Anytime before 8 PM is great, and earlier arrivals make finding seating much easier.

Reservations close at 8 PM, but you are welcome to walk in. Space is subject to availability.

Availability varies by night. Walk-ins are always welcome, and we will seat you if space is available.

Just your good vibes — get ready to have fun!
