22 Square, named after Savannah’s famous squares, will serve a “market-to-table” menu with a coastal flare, 22 Square will offer communal tables where guests will enjoy specialties prepared with local ingredients.

Evening cocktail parties will feature premium hand crafted cocktails, wine, beer and complimentary “House Tradition” candied bacon.
