“My favorite Mexican restaurant in the area. Love the staff and the food.“

“This was a date night. Ruth Chris affirms special occasions. Sonia was our waitperson. Attentive, alert, and fun, she ensured the timely progression of the evening with sizzling steaks arriving on cue. She left no stone unturned and her ability to connect with the customer was magical. Thanks to the Chef and their team and certainly a big Thank you to Sonia. A great evening!“

“I placed an online order for take out. Right when it was ready to be picked up we had an emergency situation arise, they said they understood and would keep our pizza warm for us. An hour or so later they called me and asked if they could just deliver it free of charge. They brought it to us even though we live at the edge of their delivery area. Everyone I dealt with was extremely kind and professional. Wether you like the food or not those people deserve the business just for being good humans and caring about others.“

“Our waitress was so much fun and very polite. She recommended some great birthday drink options and was willing to take my photos. I thought I would have some left overs but the food was so good, I didn't leave anything extra. I ordered the veggie roll and salmon with white rice. Will definitely visit them again soon.“

“Absolutely amazing authentic Lebanese food — everything is freshly made and full of flavor! You can really taste the quality in every bite. The customer service is top-notch — friendly, welcoming, and attentive from start to finish. Every dish we tried was delicious — from the hummus and shawarma to the grilled meats and fresh salads. The portions are generous, the atmosphere is warm, and you can tell they truly care about their customers. Highly recommend this place to anyone who loves authentic Mediterranean flavors — you won’t be disappointed! 10/10“

“y’all .. we were treated like old friends. the food was incredible! i got to see how several dishes are made to order, and the bread—just awesome! muna, our waitress is kind, and she was able to share an experience worth remembering .. thank you, muna! along those lines, i had a chance to speak with the operators, mohammed almuntaser and hefdhallah alghdry .. they took the time to show me how much work and love they put into their food and into the experience of their customers .. hefdhallah showed me how he baked the bread in a tandoor oven. queen of sheba restaurant shares a warm family atmosphere as families come together to create something special for their guests .. it’s not just the food, it’s the sharing of culture and the bonds that hold us all together .. i’m now a raving fan ❤️“

“This was our first time there, and we ordered the Ali Baba Special Mixed Grill (for two) and Kibbeh. The food was absolutely delicious, and plentiful. Everything was grilled/cooked beautifully with a perfect amount of spice and flavor. The Kibbeh was beyond delicious! Our server was Hamza and he was very helpful and thoughtful, and we really appreciated his attentive - but not hovering - service! We will definitely be back (soon)!“

“Our waitress Maddie was spectacular! Definitely made our anniversary night. We got the ricotta cheesecake that was beautiful and even said Happy Anniversary on it. Can’t wait to be back, thanks!“

“I like to have business lunches at Seasons because the service is quick, the food is good, and the cost is reasonable. I made a reservation and asked to be seated at a booth in the bar. I intentionally arrived a few minutes before my reservation as I was meeting someone I did not know and did not want them to have to wait for me. When I arrived, I explained to the hostess that my guest, whom I did not know, would be meeting me. She assured me my guest would be led to my table once she arrived. I was led to a booth in the very back of the bar where it was difficult to see people arriving. After about 10 minutes, I went back to the hostess to remind her I was meeting someone, I told her my guest's name, and I was once again assured my guest would be bought to my table. Several minutes later, the hostess leads a woman to the booth next to mine. The woman tells the hostess she was meeting someone. We both sat alone for another 5 minutes before we both started to get out from our booths to ask if we were meeting each other. We were! Very embarrassing and both of us sat alone unnecessarily. This was very unprofessional on the part of the host staff who could have easily asked my guest her first name, assuming they paid any attention to my request.“

“Conner is the best bar tender I’ve ever seen!!! He brought me fresh drinks in seconds and refilled them even before I'd finished. He asked me if I wanted something to drink within seconds of my arrival. Best service ever in a Huey's restaurant“

“Great food and wonderful service! We enjoy being regulars here and like that we are known and welcomed as friends.“

“I love the chicken pesto wrap! It always looks like a huge burrito each time I order one! It is delicious without the red onion, mushrooms and green olives I add. Those things just take it up a notch! You will not be disappointed if you try it!“

“Great asparagus soup and crème brulee. Love the Sunday specials.j“

“Really good experience. Valet parked then seated immediately, even though we were 10 mins early for reservation. Greeted by server immediately. Multiple servers came by to fill water, clear water , etc and they all were very pleasant.

Celebrated an anniversary and the staff had a card, a rose, and little hearts all over the table. Every staff member that came by wished us a happy anniversary. Wife loved it.

Food was very good. Steaks were thick and tender. Au gratin potatoes were a huge hit. The capital grille old fashioned was excellent. Service was above and beyond. Great experience.

Our reservation was for 6pm, around 7pm all the lights dimmed in our section which instantly made a more intimate setting. Our next reservation will be closer to 7pm.“

“My 1st Time at Wally Hatchets, as soon as I walked in I was greeted. I was served by Shannon C who is friendly, polite, professional, courteous, and has a GREAT sense of humor, so make sure to ask for Shannon C. The decorations on the Wall and elsewhere is Cool and Funky. The whole Menu has good selections. I ordered the Steak Burger with Mushrooms, Onions and Gravy, Eggs with Coffee that is delicious. I ordered the Catfish with Coleslaw and Onion Rings to go. Overall GREAT Experience !... A MUST GO when visiting Memphis, TN.“

“Great owners and overall awesome vibe!“

“It has been a while since we have been to Amerigo. We've been snowed in all week and we had a gift card, so we were looking forward to our dinner. We were both disappointed in the food this time. Every other time the food has been outstanding and it jut wasn't on this visit. My husband had his favorite, the cannelloni. I had the chicken Marsala. Hubby said his was not as good as he remembered it being, but it was still okay. My Marsala was bland. I brought half of it home to doctor it a bit before eating it again. Marcus did a good job and was very attentive. However, we did not get any bread until after we finished our salads. We missed having it before and during the salads. He did bring us very hot bread right after the salads and it was delicious. After a very disappointed dinner, we were looking forward to the best part, the tiramisu. For years, we have raved about it and always order it when going to Amerigo. It has always been at the top of our list of favorite desserts. Not this time! It was dry and they must have changed chocolate vendors as the chocolate was not the same delectable flavor that it has been in the past. We left not sure if a next visit will even be worth it. That makes me sad as Amerigo has always been one of our favorite "special" places.“

“We love to meet friends at Tannoor Grill. We had a reservation for 14 last night! The meat is served on giant skewers and cut at the table. Those who prefer rare can get it, and those that like their meat charred and well done can get that too. Everybody’s happy. The unlimited salad bar and hot vegetable selections are substantial, and the seared lamb chops are second to none. Because the restaurant does not serve alcohol, we can bring our own wine for no extra fee (bring your own glass and corkscrew as you will be serving yourself). When you leave you are happy and satisfied. It’s the perfect meal to celebrate a special occasion or share with friends.“

“Very friendly, love their breakfast. Free pie on Mondays . We go every time we are in the area.“

“People of Memphis you need to eat here!! Driving through town and we’re lucky enough to find this authentic Thai restaurant. The food is fantastic. We had the grilled steak/shrimp Papaya salad and the Ginger salmon. Both dishes were delicious with generous portions and a beautiful presentation. The cook and waitress are very friendly and gave us excellent service. Highly recommend.“

“best bbq ribs iv ever eaten. They were so good that the next morning I woke up at soon as they opened and got more. highly recommend this place fast friendly service and they do not short you. you get more than your money's worth! I will be back everytime I come to Memphis“

“I want to send a very special thank you the manager on duty this evening (04/22/23) and her staff. My keys were lost and when I tell you they were amazing in helping locate them after a hour of searching!!! They went through the trash, looked under the tables and even went to make sure my car was still outside. Customer service at its best! Guys thank you so very much. We are forever grateful!!“

“First, your billboards worked. I was looking for a steak dinner, saw your signs & went for it. We enjoyed our meals. My ribeye was good. (Lasagna was yummy & huge!) The service was friendly. The salad bar was fresh & offered a good variety. Tea was cold. The restaurant decor is nice, clean & comfortable. It was a great value, overall. if I lived close, I'd be a regular.“

“Sushi is fantastic, as well as the fried rice. Always fresh and delicious. Great people working at and operating the business“

“Very good customer service, Ms Naomi always Helpful And Always has a Smile, and she's a Very Curteous Lady, never have to wait a long time for your food. We stay in Downtown Memphis and have a long drive a way to drive, but it's very well worth it sandwiches are Great and taste Very Good. Will Definitely continue patronizing this Lenny's location, Charles & Ella Brown“

“We went to dinner tonight for my stepson‘s birthday. One person ordered the Mojito Mocktail and another ordered the pear martini. Both said their drinks were tasty. We had the spinach queso dip as an appetizer, and that did not disappoint. My stepson ordered the prime rib and the stuffed baked potato. The prime rib must’ve been an inch thick! And the stuffed baked potato was ginormous. My husband ordered the baby back ribs. And they were cooked to perfection. They did not fall off the bone, thankfully. They had a nice bite. And the sauce was delicious. My mom had the Cajun trout. She said it was full of bones, unfortunately. The lighting was very dim in the restaurant and she couldn’t tell what she was eating. So she had to pack it up and bring it home. Although she did say what little fish she got to eat was tasty. The southern coleslaw was tasteless and a disappointment. I had the Ahi tuna salad. I asked for dressing on the side. When it came, there was a huge mound of lettuce. I did see the ahi and the big half of avocado on top of the lettuce. But about a third into my salad, I finally discovered wasabi, the wonton crisps, and the pickled ginger. It was not a good way to present the salad. At all. The ahi was prepared perfectly, and it tasted great with the dressing, ginger, avocado and wasabi. Just wished I discovered the latter sooner! The complementary birthday carrot cake was super moist and delicious. Overall, we had a great time at the restaurant.“

“Some of the best sushi you will find in Memphis area. I’ve eaten at both restaurants within this week and both excellent. Man who complained about slow service evidently doesn’t know we are in a pandemic and expect service to be the same as before. Patience is key. I will say service was fast both times. Depends on time you go maybe? Worth the wait. Go try it 😉“

“Hands down best BBQ in Town service was super fast loved the environment.“

“Side Porch Steakhouse absolutely delivers. The steak was cooked perfectly - great char, tender, and full of flavor. Sides were simple and done right, exactly what you want with a solid steakhouse meal. Service was friendly, efficient, and not pushy, and the overall atmosphere felt comfortable and classic, not pretentious. If you’re looking for a reliable, high-quality steakhouse that does the basics really well, this is it. Would absolutely recommend and will be back.“

“Omg! I haven’t had turnip greens this good since was a teenager (40 years ago). I grew up in the Deep South eating the best homegrown & homemade vegetables around. Sling Shot Charlie’s brings back sweet memories! I can’t wait to go back!“

“excellent pizza excellent service Cindy was great!!!!“

“Loved everything I've ever ordered. Great customer service. Fresh cooked when ordered.“

“Best customer service I’ve EVER seen!!!! 10/10 for customer service!!!!!! Sides, desserts, and pulled chicken were on point as well!!!!!“

“They always have good sushi!!“

“Great food , great service“

“Enjoyed playing music here. Owner & staff are top shelf & very accommodating. Food was great, rarely had to ask for my water glass to be refilled on stage, & if I did it was on its way immediately. Couldn’t ask for better service or more professional people. Highly recommended!“

“Today was my 1st time visiting this hidden gem. I had the Caesar salad it was delicious. Customer service was excellent and the atmosphere was well.“

“Don’t use the online ordering system. The bakery doesn’t receive the order. Call more than 3 days in advance.“

“I absolutely love this place… it is soooo good , I can’t wait to go back“

“BF took me here for the first time and now it'll be our new favorite spot.

I had the large egg drop soup and it was delicious. I also had the age tofu and they make it extra spe ial with the bonita flakes and furikake on top with a nice sauce with a little kick. I also had the cucumber salad. Nothing too special; however they julienne them instead of slicing, which i really enjoyed.
BF had the churashi special and he said it was great. He had miso soup, salad, and a generous portion of different sashimi with roe on top.

The staff is exceptionally friendly and efficient. Overall, it was a great experience and we'll definitely be back. I highly recommend coming here.“

“We LOVE it! Food is great and staff is amazing.“

“Every time I've been here, it's been busy. Not really enough parking for the size of the restaurant. Service has always been great. Food is good, but a little.expensive for what you get. There is a great variety of pizzas and topping, along with salads and pastas. It does seem a little loud in there, perhaps too much echo. Still, I would recommend this place for the quality and variety of foods along with the friendly staff.“

“First time there, did take out. Kung Pao Beef, Beef Fried Rice, Spring Rolls and Fried Biscuits (Mantow). Young fellow at desk said KPB was not too spicy, so asked for Extra Spicy and was NOT disappointed. KPB was delicious, superb level of spice, lovely thick sauce, portion size was large, very nice. We will come back!“

“Beginning of banana pudding!“

“Food and service is always excellent. Kelly is my usual waitress and knows our orders by heart. We may go there a little too much but it's so good it's hard not to lol“

“Always a good time with friends…new and old.“
