New American Restaurants in Memphis, TN

“It’s certainly not the quickest service I’ve ever had, but the ambience is great, and the food was delicious! We had the General Tso cauliflower as an appetizer, then the quinoa burger and two salads.“

“The last time we went here we were severely disappointed in both food and service, but this visit was a total change. The food was perfectly prepared… We had rotisserie chicken and trout. They even delayed one because it wasn’t perfect but explained. I can’t say what a huge improvement it was! Something changed and we look forward to returning“

“Great food as always Chip and Amanda. Good to see y'all.“

“We had a pleasant time and a good meal. They were attentive about food allergies.

Update Feb 2025: Chef Charles and Emily our server were absolutely so kindly accommodating about my food allergies and the food was the best it's ever been as was the service. Can't wait to go back to try more options.

Update June 2025: Unfortunately neither the service nor the food allergy accommodation was good. The server said he talked to the chef who said I could only eat one thing on the menu (the gnocchi) which was solidly average. Our server must have had way more than his share of tables. Everybody else in our group had delicious food options and enjoyed themselves so that was a good thing.“

“Enjoyed my son’s birthday here at Evergreen Grill today. Thank you for accommodating us and giving us great service. We enjoyed the wings, nachos, honey hot chicken, patty melt, chicken Philly and the brisket Philly. Great spot and cool menu.“

“Bar Tender Jordan is a machine, makes a great Caesar!“

“We spent New Years Eve with the amazing people at Loflin. We bought our GA tickets and added a VIP table. We had an amazing time. The Neon Mooners band was just the right vibe for the night. Katie was our server the whole night and she was great. Super attentive and she listened to us talk and talk and talk. Also a huge shout out to Lily the bartender. She was super sweet! We will definitely be back!!“

“I’ve worked here for over three years and it is my second home! Best place to be for great beer & good vibes.“

“Went at 4:00 am and was let in by the nicest man. I got wings with a friend and they were SO GOOD. The cook came out and spoke to us. She was so sweet. Such a fun environment with good food and good people.“

“If you haven’t been to the Flying Saucer, you haven’t been to a bar! You gotta come here at least once in your lifetime to experience a night at this place. This is not your ordinary shot and a beer joint. 100+ beers on tap from local, domestic and international breweries. And even if you only come once, you have to join the “UFO Club”.“

“I was looking for somewhere close to the airport to eat and decided to try this place. The food was delicious, and they were very friendly. It was like eating with family even though we probably stuck out like a sore thumb. 😆 When we left, they were all telling us bye and to have a good trip.“

“My husband and I agree that this is some of the most delicious food we’ve ever eaten in our lives. Everything is fresh and delicious, great variety“

“Their great depends on who’s cooking I like the men cooking better their quicker and have more patience and are more approachable-anyways don’t let them give you set out chicken ask for it fresh out the grease piping hot - not fried hard - that’s the best chicken

Kid-friendliness: There’s a park across the street

Wheelchair accessibility: It’s the hood so hey !“

“The food, our server Hannah, and the ambience of the place. 5 Stars✌🏼“

“Neat little tucked away neighbood atmosphere pub. Good drinks, didn't eat, however food looked really good. I'm not sure if the 18% grat added to bill is a Memphis thing, but it has happened in a few establishments... :( it's a bummer!“

“Great experience for my first time!“

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

“One of the best music experiences we had while in Memphis. We stopped in on a Sunday in August after touring Sun Studio - the tour guide had recommended we check this place out for their music on Sunday. The atmosphere was laid back and easy going. The bar was full but there were some tables open and a couple seats we found. We ordered a couple beers and some fried okra and wings. The food was ok. The music was awesome! There was a cover charge for the music but I think you can dine on the other side of you don’t want to see the bands - not sure tho.

Parking: Stone lot“

“5 ? I ❤HOOK'S! I ALWAYS ORDER THE 2 PIECE CATFISH WITH THE 5 PIECE SHRIMP! REASONABLE PRICE! ALWAYS SATISFIED WITH MY FOOD!“

“I absolutely enjoy the service, food & atmosphere here so much that I posted a reel on my business page for out of town guest searching for a nice place to dine. Our waitress Rachel was top notch. Great to experience in a society of people not wanting to work.“

“First time at this venue, and it was great. clean, great staff, great acoustics. Hope to be back soon!“

“Went at 4:00 am and was let in by the nicest man. I got wings with a friend and they were SO GOOD. The cook came out and spoke to us. She was so sweet. Such a fun environment with good food and good people.“

“everything is amazing. and service is great“

“I recently visited The Wing Factory and was impressed. I ordered the honey hot wings with lemon pepper sprinkles and a Kool-Aid. The wings were big and flavorful, and the honey hot sauce was perfect. I was unable to finish the 10-piece wings and fries in one sitting, which means the wings are a good size. The staff was very nice and helpful with the menu since it was my first time. The Wing Factory is right by my house so I will probably make it a go-to spot for the future!“

“Chef coles kitchen have the best omelette and the cleanest place I love the patio that he has he also has some delicious food come try them out“

“Stepping into Complicated Pilgrim was a delightful experience. The modern atmosphere, stylish decor, and overall vibe immediately set a welcoming tone. It’s clear that great thought went into creating an inviting space.

The service was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we were greeted with warm smiles, the staff’s exceptional customer service stood out, making the experience even more enjoyable.

The menu, though simple and easy to navigate, was surprisingly fitting for a restaurant with such a unique name. It was straightforward without being overwhelming—a pleasant surprise!

Now, onto the food. It felt like being back at grandma’s house for a classic Southern breakfast. The biscuits were buttery and flaky, easily a standout on the plate. The scrambled eggs were fluffy and perfectly cooked. However, the turkey sausage fell short of the meal’s high standard. It was thin, slightly dry, and reminded me of Great Value frozen sausage—a processed option that didn’t do justice to the otherwise exceptional meal. Substituting this with a higher-quality brand would elevate the entire breakfast experience.

The holiday decor was charming and prompted us to snap some personal pictures, adding to the overall warmth and joy of the visit. I look forward to returning to try more menu options and soaking in the ambiance again. This is a great spot for dining solo, with friends, or with family.

Rating: 4.5/5 (Fix the turkey sausage, and it’s perfection!)

Parking: There is a parking garage behind the restaurant“

“Wonderful experience! I went about 4 weeks ago. It was busy for late night but the staff were friendly and attentive. They were running short staffed but still did a great job.

Customer service delivered by them all was good, especially from Nathanial overhearing a comment from our table and stepping in to take action.

I enjoyed my cocktails. Not super strong, not super juicy & sweet. Good balance.

I didn’t try the food. Only came for drinks. They have dessert on the menu now so I’ll return to try that out.“

“Great dive bar in the heart of midtown - Memphis, TN! Zach was the bartender and offered wonderful service and small talk. He was both pleasant and personable!“

“Everything is great there but I would truly suggest that you bring cash due to system issues or over charging on some items due to a surcharge that the bar does to your card? other than that ....it's a great place.

Parking: It's a big parking lot but it is Memphis TN so I would suggest parking close to the actual bar and not too far away from the front door camera because there has been just a few little break-ins of cars“

“The food and the cocktails were so so good, such friendly staff, great experience!“

“I had heard of Belly Acres but had never tried it until recently and the only regret l have is not trying it out sooner. The food was amazing and the customer service was some of the best I have ever experienced. It’s obvious the owner of this establishment takes pride in his staff and it shows by their attention to detail with the customer. If you have not been to Belly Acres then I suggest you try it first chance you get.“

“Fantastic burgers, fries and sandwiches! Today was our first time ordering from this restaurant. We will be back soon! 😊“

“This is our third time dining at Delta’s kitchen. The food is incredible and the portions are awesome as is the service. Our new “go to” restaurant for all of our special occasions. It definitely is Memphis’ Best Kept Secret! Please don’t change a thing!“

“Good overall value. Good atmosphere on the Square in Memphis, the food was good— not great but it was good. We ordered the Apple Crisp for dessert and everyone enjoyed it. We also ordered the fried green tomatoes. There was more breading than tomato but did have flavor. Overall experience was just okay.

Kid-friendliness: A very adult type vibe here.“

“I ate at Big Bad Breakfast on 2/12/2025 For the first time. I will be coming back The service was great Food was great I absolutely loved it“

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

“This meal was soooo delicious!!! We used to go here all the time when I was younger, its where I fell in love with hot wings! You don't even have to ask for extra sauce, they just pile it on, so good! Got the extra hot wings with fried green tomatoes, yum! COVID precautions were well in place!“

“In the heart of downtown so full of Memphis culture. The owner Mr. Willie is still vibrant and down to earth even dapped (????) up my momma ??. I love the energy that the memories must hold tightly in the walls and checker board floor. I'm visiting Memphis Even though I was raised here I didn't know it existed but I was so fulfilled from the experience!!“
