33 Best American Restaurants near Marion

“Visiting from Chicago and missed the breakfast at the casino but came here and it did not disappoint. We had the jalapeno skillet and the steak omelette with biscuits and gravy. Excellent choice. Big kudos to our amazing waiter Devin who was very attentive!! We'll be back.“

“Great Food! Great People! They treat you like family!“

“I went there 4 times in 2 weeks. Great food and service. However the last night I went there one of the “regulars” acted like and looked like Kenny Powers from Eastbound Down. He was ridiculously rude and wanted to “get into my a$$”. He was belligerent drunk. I’m sure in high school he was voted most likely to go to prison. I had to call the police and the damn owner gave Kenny Powers a ride home! Cops sided with me because I wasn’t drunk, but that’s not my point. The owner should’ve kicked him out. I’m never going back!“

“Four of us enjoyed an excellent meal at Flight, great concept, we had 12 dishes between us. Chef came to our table twice during our visit & our server, Caitlyn, was outstanding. Desserts were delicious 😋 Thank you for a brilliant meal experience. Highly recommended, would love to come back one day.“

“What a great experience! Friendly people. Very cool setting. Delicious food. Plus, a personal tour of the space from the co-owner after I inquired about their beautiful old building. Surprise after surprise.“

“Amazing food and service while we were in town for the New Edition concert! It was the lamb chops and blueberry lemon drop for me! I'll definitely be back whenever I'm in Memphis again!!“

“Thank you Cocozza for such a great time! Your sauce is better than mine and I loved the meatballs. I need recipes lol. That cannoli was the best too. Usually it is so chewy at other restaurants. It was crunchy and creamy perfection. I also recommend the bruschetta and the calamari starters. Your staff was so engaging and they made my birthday so much fun. They took the time to answer questions, even about the restaurant itself and artwork. Very engaging and professional. We will be back because this is now my favorite restaurant!“

“I came to support a group of students earlier this week to celebrate winning king and queen of the school. First of all let me say the staff was very rude to the administration staff. Even though reservations were made and confirmed and they knew in advance that the students were coming they refused to seat our party and denied the reservations ever being made even after being shown the email messages. The female manager asked for us to wait outside of the restaurant being that it was about 42 degrees that day until the limousine arrived to pick the students back up . The children were dressed in their Sunday best with white dresses and the young boys were in tuxedos and were looking forward to having their luncheon that was awarded to them for their hard work at school. I strongly believe that if the students were not all African American and staff as well they would have treated us differently. I will never ever support nor spend money with Majestic Grill again. I was hurt the way they treated these students who worked oh so hard and were looking forward to what was supposed to be a special day to remember.“

“The food is amazing. The staff is great. Why a restaurant at this price point doesn't have better outdoor seating with more protection on the west side of the building is beyond me. All of us were dressed up for a fancy night out and left on the edge of changing again.“

“Tucked inside a beautifully restored hundred year old building, Felicia Suzanne’s feels like stepping into the perfect blend of swanky sophistication and Delta soul. The renovation is stunning. Every detail exudes warmth and class, creating an atmosphere that’s both stylish and inviting. From the moment we sat down, it was clear this wasn’t just a meal, it was an experience carefully crafted with thought, talent, and passion. Each dish was layered with flavor, beautifully presented, and absolutely to die for. You can taste the intention behind every bite. The balance of Southern tradition and modern creativity is flawless. It’s the kind of place where you can slow down, savor, and truly celebrate food. If you’re in Memphis and want more than just dinner. If you want an evening you’ll remember long after the last bite. Felicia Suzanne's Restaurant delivers in every way. Thank you Clay and Felicia for giving us a tour, feeding us, and employing a staff that exudes southern hospitality. I had the best night!! Run don't walk to this incredible establishment.“

“Great place to eat. Some 32 miles from home, we've put Sizzlin Skillett into our rotation of favorite places to eat. Great food/Great Service. You'll like it. Highly recommend. Reminds me of Mom's cooking.“

“One of my favorite little hidden gems! Their breakfast burritos are soo yummy and I love their seasoned hash brown patties!“

“It was my first time eating here. I enjoyed it. They have really good food & service. I had the country fried steak, twice baked potatoes and side salad. The salad was bigger than I thought.i would have gotten dessert which was key lime pie. I was so full I didn't think about ordering it. I wish I had gotten it to go. I will next time. If you haven't eaten here, do. Its a menphis treasure.“

“My last visit, it was friggin delicious it was so ridiculous. 🙌🏽🙌🏽 11/10.“

“The food, atmosphere and hospitality were phenomenal. Everyone enjoyed their soul food. If I ever make it back to Memphis, I will definitely eat here again. The food was absolutely amazing.“

“First time to visit. Ordered the colorful, appetizing, and delicious power bowl with so many flavors and textures all in one bowl! Server was attentive and friendly. Nice atmosphere. This place has a great vibe and location. Thoroughly enjoyed my dining experience and will definitely be back!“

“1st time at Wyatts Cafe. We will be back. That was some of the best catfish filets. I hope to be sitting down there again soon. Friendly people, awesome antiques.“

“Food was good, and quick. Had fish sandwich, burger tater tots and onion rings hot crisp I thought they were pretty good. service polite and attentive.“

“Cool place with good food.“

“Visited Flying Saucer Draught Emporium at the Peabody Place location in Memphis with two coworkers and left with mixed but mostly positive impressions.

I ordered the Whiskey Burger without bacon, and the whiskey cheddar came through nicely while the blackberry compote was subtle, more of a background sweetness than a bold flavor. The patty itself was cooked well and the bun held up.

My only real complaint was the hand punched fries, which came out soggy and lacked the crispness I was hoping for.

One coworker ordered the Sputnik Monroe with a side of rocket tots and felt similarly let down by the tots, so between the two of us the sides were the weak point of the meal.
The other coworker went with the Big Dipper and hand punched fries and seemed satisfied with the pick.

Beyond the food, the atmosphere at this spot is hard to beat. The ceiling covered in bottle caps and the checkered floor give it a fun, lived in bar feel, and the service throughout our visit was attentive and friendly with no complaints there.
Between the strong burger, good service, and great atmosphere against the disappointing fries, I would still recommend Flying Saucer for a casual bite and a beer, just maybe skip the fries and try the tots or another side instead.“

“I always enjoy the terrace they have a beautiful view of the river, wonderful tapas/ sharable plates, and also amazing drinks. My husband and I love date night here. I have tried most of the menu and have yet to be disappointed. Worth a visit whenever downtown. If you are lucky you will get Niki as a bartenders she is great!

Vegetarian options: All items are shareable and about 1/3 of the menu is meatless and there is a good variety of items that can be ordered without meat.

Parking: Depends on time but there is parking because the terrace is on the top floor of a hotel. It is free parking.

Wheelchair accessibility: Via hotel there is a sidewalk and elevator. No stairs“

“2nd time in Memphis. The Green Beetle is our Memphis hometown bar! Great food, reasonable prices, and the clientele is a great mix of out of towners and locals! The staff is awesome! Randy the bartender is great!“

“Great place for party events“

“Before we got to our lodge we stopped off at little hidden gem. Amazing service, excellent coffee, just what we needed after a long drive. 💯recommend.“

“Service is good and the Brisket was 🔥🔥🔥‼️“

“Let me start off by just saying the entire experience was great! I'm not sure why this place has such a low over all ratung and if I'm being honest it almost kept me from going there but my buddy talked me into it and I'm so glad he did. The armosphere was nice, THE. FOOD. WAS. AMAZING. And the service was great! We had Trellius as our waiter and he rocked. We got the wagyu deviled eggs and the shrimp brochette as an appetizer and they were both outstanding. The wagyu deviled eggs were even better than I could have imagined. The meat had this mild sweetness that was just right to compliment the deviled egg. The Shrimp brochette was smoky and meaty and the shrimp was cooked just right. I will say I was a little bummed to only see two of them on the plate for the price but as good as they were, I'd do it again 🤷🏼‍♂️ Then we gpt the 40oz tomahawk steak with Cajun butter, bone marrow gravy, blue cheese butter, sautéed onions and mushrooms all on the side for dipping topping. We also got a side of the creamed corn which was unreal! Now, the tomahawk was absolutely delicious but at first it did come out pretty undercooked, which we told Trellius and not only did he fix it but he also gave us another side of that ass kicking cream corn and a ton more of the bone marrow gravy! It was absolutely fantastic when it came back out the second time. Finally, we finished with an order of the bourbon bread pudding which came with a banana ice cream and it was excellent as well. Great experience! Would 100% recommend!

Update 2/6/26
Liked it so much I drove 3.5 hrs to bring my dad here to eat for his birthday. Got the tomahawk again, of course, to split between the two of us. Had to do the cream corn again for a side, highly recommend it. All the same stuff as last time but this time also got the lobster egg rolls and crav cake appetizer. Let me tell you none of it disappointed. Also got the sweet potato gnocchi which had a very nice sage and subtlety sweet flavor. Thanks for another great experience!“

“The food is great, just like your mom use to make. The quantity of food for the price, is over the top. I was surprised when I opened the bag, You definitely get your monies worth. The staff was courteous and the owner took his time to talk to me even though they were busy. The quality of food and the quality of staff is not what I expected from, as the owner said, a “Dive Bar”. It’s our new favorite carry out place!“

“Our waiter was Bobby and he was amazing!! The food was delicious and affordable. Wonderful atmosphere.“

“good food and great service. We just ate here but definitely interested in the hotel“

“The trio slider combo. Service was great too.“

“It whole in the wall was a place, this would be it. I’ve only been here once for a quick lunch break. I got a 6pc honey hot party wings. $10.19 with tax. Wing were wet and hot, flavor was a lil more hot than honey gold, which I’m not mad at. The wings are a bit small. Service about average, not bad at all. It’s close to downtown but all the customers seemed like regulars. I’ll be back to see what that burger hittin on.“

“Our waitress Alyse was very accommodating. The steaks we ordered (8 oz filet) were cooked to perfection. I would highly recommend the lobster chowder—a signature dish. Since it was my husband's birthday, he was given a Oreo cookie cheesecake—quite delicious. Overall, a great dining experience.“

“Their chicken philly is AMAZING“
