“Great place! Anyone need suggestions? Send me a message.”
“From the atmosphere, fantastic service, and amazing food….I will drive an hour to get to this restaurant. One of the best Brunches, with numerous meal choices. Love the dining experience!!!”
“We enjoy dining at Napa Cafe for special occasions and particularly love seeing what's new on the menu. Last night we brought two out of town guests who live near the coast and have seafood regularly in their home towns. Because of our guests, we were disappointed that the new menu featured too many seafood items. Don't get me wrong, we enjoyed our dinner, but some of us didn't want seafood. All of the apps were seafood except one, and most were shellfish, which we couldn't eat due to an allergy. We also felt like the new entrees didn't include enough non seafood options, and no one wants beef ragout when it's 90 degrees outside. PS Jan always does a great job!”
“Amazing food and service!!! ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“I came to Itta Bena for my birthday last year and it was so good, I didn’t even hesitate to come again this year. The food and service is always incredible. Everyone is so kind. The experience is welcoming and professional from the moment you approach the host/hostess to the moment you get the check. I love this restaurant and I will be happy to continue celebrating birthdays with them!! (Our server was Jonathan this time, super nice guy!!)”
“Some places are like heaven. The food was absolutely delicious, made with lots of love by wonderful people using organic ingredients& products.”
“I expected more from the food given the restaurant's reputation. I definitely did not expect my beans and coleslaw to be in little plastic cups with lids. Still, the ambiance was excellent and our waitress was awesome. Of course, the music was the best!”

“Thank you so much for accommodating our order on short notice! We received excellent customer service and delicious brownies. My team at Chick-fil-A Germantown loved the strawberry brownies the most. We’ll be back!”
“Ms. Therese saved the day. We were taking a trip to Nashville then Memphis for my daughter's 16th birthday. We live in Texas! She asked me if she could at least have some cake on her birthday? So I googled bakeries in Memphis. Ms. Therese was the only one that responded to me. It was only 6 days notice, but she said she would do it. The cake was perfect. She did a great job and it tasted soooo wonderful. This lady is an angel for helping me last minute, and she is so sweet and friendly! Loved meeting her.”
“Sonya was the best server and made our experience extra special! She was attentive and accommodating and simply delightful! What a wonderful birthday dinner we had for my father made all the more special because of the excellent service Sonya provided! Montana was outstanding as well! The meal was spectacular too! Ruth's Chris is my dad's favorite restaurant for good reason...never disappoints! Thank you all for making his birthday dinner special!”
“"It's like a craving you've been having and you finally found it"”
“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.”

“I don't normally do such a review for fine dining but my wife and I attended a special event where Duckhorn Wines and Chef Gentry at the Lobbyist put on a very unique feast. I'm not a wine expert by any means but the Duckhorn wines selected fit the menu perfectly with a 4 course meal that included octopus and fresh cabbage to start, and perfectly prepared beef cheek for the main. The Lobbyist source their food supplies from local farms which it shows both in appearance and taste. The event was sponsored by Buster's Liquor, an icon in Memphis for the selection and price. The seating was an open table making it a fun evening where we met and made new friends. Check them out for a special date with your better half.”

Cannot wait to come back here highly recommended the gunpowder fizz.”

“The Capital Grille brought back their Wagyu & Wine promotion. Its a perfectly grilled Wagyu burger (offered 3 ways) paired with one of three classic Duckhorn wines for only $35.
We LOVE The Capital Grille and we ENJOY their Wagyu Burger & Wine promotions!!!
We were there last weekend (10/12/24) and returned this weekend (10/18/24) to enjoy another version of their Wagyu Burgers and Duckhorn Wines. Both weekends, we enjoyed their SUPERB Fried Calamari with a glass of Prisoner Red Blend and a glass of Knights Bridge Chardonnay before our burgers.
Like last week, we were blessed with the DELIGHTFUL and PROFESSIOANL attention of Skylar as our Server.
NOTE: This Wagyu & Wine promotion is only available in the Capital Grille Lounge until November 01, 2024.”

“I only went to the lobby for a birthday party. From what I saw, it was small. One of the guess stated the rooms were small. The bathroom on the lobby floor was clean.”
“Food is just scrumptious!!! Try the pizza!!!
Kid-friendliness: Games are placed around to entertain kids and adults
Wheelchair accessibility: Ground level”
“So beautifully American and really nice to us tourists! The strips were awesome! Thanks for the great experience and don't forget the soda ??
If you want to eat chicken...here”
“These cookies absolutely make you say Goodness Gracious when you taste them. I don’t know if I get more excited when the already baked cookies arrive to my door, or the cookie mixes because they are both phenomenal. Yes, I live out of state and she does ship! Couple that with the fact that this is a small, female owned, black business, is the icing on the cookie! If you have not tried them, please do! You will not regret it, and the customer service is top notch. Thank you Megan for sharing your gift with the world!”
“Good burger, more pepper in their flavor than most. Get at least a double! The single is just a tease and will make you want to go back around for another. I definitely recommend the seasoned fries too!
No much too the atmosphere, it's a drive thru but you get the old school burger and a milkshake kind of place.”
“It is always good when we go to ANY Dixie Queen! We don’t go that often because we don’t live to close to one so when we see one we always stop bc it’s always been good to us no matter what location”
“I’m overwhelmed with joy! I came through the drive through on a Monday after. Ashley,( the customer service rep.) took my order and greeted me soooo politely! She confirmed my order and had the most pleasant attitude(which is rare at Dixie Queen). The food is always good , but in regards to cust. service, they need Ashley at every location!”
“Miss Phillis is the best she is the reason why I come back to this McDonald’s she is so professional. She is so nice. She has a very inviting smile. I love to spend my money here at this McDonald’s. Thank you for all you do for everyone. you are so appreciated. Especially from Zips ”
“Amazing staff! They were patient and delivered exceptional food for hundreds of customers yesterday...6/25/2023. Memphis experienced a blackout in that part of town after a severe thunderstorm, and they still were there to serve us food. Thank you so much! Keep up the great work !”
“Came late night around 330 to get food and VICTORIA (A.A. female with really bad red weave) decided to get rude, yell and cuss at me as well as slam the togo window in my face, saying "I said what I said" and walked away talking trash. The younger cook, didn't catch his name, came to the window and although frustrated calmly took my order and began cooking it. The younger girl that was there with Victoria was very polite and trying her best to get her job done efficiently. The cook didn't hesitate to cook my order and EVERYTHING was made correctly! Very enjoyable meal! That cook DEFINITELY needs a raise! When I paid for my order ($55 and change, paid $80) I told the cook that the remainder of the change was for him. I really appreciated the fact he took care of the customer no matter the reaction from a waitress that didn't want to work. When I was talking to him VICTORIA was at the dish pit yelling and talking trash while just repeating "Blah blah blah" with her nasty bumpy tongue hanging out of her mouth of yellow teeth calling me out of my name. I have been in the food industry for over 18 years and i would NEVER treat anyone or any customer like Victoria did. I will be speaking to management and corporate about my experience there tonight and I will be pursuing getting VICTORIA FIRED. That was just completely unacceptable! Major kudos to the cook and the other server though, regardless of how tired, frustrated or overwhelmed they were, they kept cool and made sure everything got handled.”
“I got my orders to go the food was delicious well seasoned well prepared”
“I recently had lunch at IHOP, and it was a fantastic experience! The burgers were exquisite, with juicy meat that made every bite delightful. The chicken sandwiches were absolutely fire, bursting with flavor. Of course, I couldn't resist the pancakes, which were delicious and perfectly fluffy. Overall, IHOP is a great spot for a satisfying lunch that hits the spot every time! ????”
“I was in town and I hadn’t had Dixie Queen in awhile since moving away the food is always good. But whoever was working the window Friday night had the most exceptional customer service experience when ordering the food”
“We had a spur of the moment dinner on Saturday night. Very enjoyable great food, expert cocktails. Recommended.”

“Why, I LOVE this place! Had been intending to go and finally did! Thus far have visited about 3 or 4 times, hooked! I'm not even vegan, but I sure do love the food, ...trying to curb my meat appetite. ALWAYS GOOD/ fresh, with EXCELLENT friendly customer service. (You Know I had to purchase a T Shirt and Cap!) Making my rounds, trying to sample everything on the menu. Been on vacay, can't wait until Mon to order!”
“It is consistently the best southeast Asian cuisine in Memphis!”
“Come here, you won't regret it! Excellent food and excellent service. I'm not from here, and didn't know what to get, the waitress gave me several suggestions and even helped me get the portion size just right! The waitresses gave me samples of the drinks and I HAD to get the strawberry, so delicious! I ended up getting the birria tacos and they are phenomenal. I will absolutely be returning to Chukis next time I'm visiting Memphis!”

“Great experience! Staff was very polite. Owner greeted us and allowed us to try flavors to help with our decision. Very clean and well kept environment. Bowl was made quickly.”
“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)!”
“Customer Service at Butteriffic has always been 5 stars for me and mine and those lil butter cookies are melt in your mouth amazing!”
“Obsessed with Poke World. Always good, always fast. The poke bowls are big & so good. It’s hard to want to order anything else but they have ramen & wings too. And, bubble tea!”
“Who doesn't love crumble cookie? This was only my second time visiting this location and it was much quicker in and out than my first visit. Which I really appreciated. They're very popular so you have to be careful of the times you go. I appreciate that they're open late into the evening. Their selections are always tempting and it makes it very hard to choose! The staff were very helpful and polite and worked to make our transaction quickly and smoothly.”
“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!”
“First time trying Esco's. Sunday brunch before a show. Brunch places are normally quiet and subdued. The music was a little too loud making it slightly difficult to hear others. Gave a nightclub vibe. Not bad, just not my usual scene. BUT...the food was fantastic! We ordered the calamari...delicious and perfectly cooked. My friend ordered the wings and fries. Great flavor on the fries and the wings were cooked to perfection. I ordered the salmon croquettes with breakfast potatoes and overrmedium eggs. Fantastic!!! The croquettes actually had real salmon in them (novel idea) and were crispy on the outside, tender on the inside. The potatoes were excellent. The eggs were exactly how I liked them...runny yolk and well done white. SO GOOD! Lastly, our server JT was polite and attentive throughout our meal and the drinks (mimosas) he prepared for us were lovely!!!”
“Seasons 52 in Memphis offers a truly delightful dining experience. I particularly enjoyed the Wood-grilled salmon, Lamb Chops. The flavors were perfectly balanced, and the presentation was stunning. The wine list is extensive and well-curated, offering a wide range of options to complement any meal.
The service was impeccable, with our server being attentive and knowledgeable. The atmosphere is stylish and inviting, making it the perfect place for a special occasion or a casual dinner.
We enjoyed ourselves so much we went back the next day.
If you're looking for a fresh and delicious dining experience in Memphis, I highly recommend Seasons 52.”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“Have known Precious since high school and she has always been an amazing person! I have had the pleasure of going to hey restaurant and her food truck and OMG! literally EVERYTHING is phenomenal!!”
“It took way too long & the wait was because the guy at the window couldn’t figure out the credit card terminal. But he offered a bottled water as we’d been in line in the drive thru over 15 minutes trying to pay. Thankfully we were not in a time crunch. But he also offered us a dozen of variety cookies for the inconvenience!! That’s excellent customer service.”
“Hands down best BBQ in Town service was super fast loved the environment.”
“i LOVE THE FOOD! THEY GIVE U GOOD PORTION SIZES THE ONLY COMPLAINT I HAVE IS THAT IT STINKS IN THE INSIDE OF THE STORE THEY MAY NEED TO CHANGE THE RUGS OR MATTS AND CHANGE THE MOP WATER OTHER THAN THAT EVRYTHING IS GOOD! WE ALWAYS ORDER THE FISH ITS SO HOT AND FRESH AND I DONT EVEN EAT ”
“First time going on yesterday and the Vegan smoothie was Delicious!!!!!”
“5 ? I ❤HOOK'S! I ALWAYS ORDER THE 2 PIECE CATFISH WITH THE 5 PIECE SHRIMP! REASONABLE PRICE! ALWAYS SATISFIED WITH MY FOOD!”
“My daughter chose Bala’s Bistro for her birthday dinner and we are so glad she did! The owner was so warm and welcoming, we felt at home immediately. We sampled everything and every single item was delicious. They helped us celebrate and really made it a special evening for us all. I would definitely recommend Bala’s Bistro! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Best food in the city and great service! What more do you need?”
“We got 4 tacos from the drive through. You sit there while they cook your food fresh. They gave us plenty of delicious sauces/dips for our tacos and they were delicious!!”
“For the hungry and want it fast crowd this place will do the job. Mostly Chinese dishes with some American thrown in. Most of their business is take out but they have seating for 32. We showed up about 1 ish and we were the only ones eating in but saw a steady stream of phone in orders being picked up. My partner got the chicken fried rice and I agreed with her it should have had more chicken in it. I selected the steak and shrimp sub and the meat was ground up, not hamburger but certainly not sirloin. Few shrimp in it. On the edge of Tiger Town for what it is, it’s not bad.
Parking: Lots of room
Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of room in the dining area. Restrooms are ADA compliant”
“They are very helful and the ladies nice to deal with.”
“A brightly lit dining area.
Food was very good.
Service was excellent.
Portions were exact, didn't need to take anything home.
I have patroned this location several times over the last 2 years and everything has been quite consistent .”
“Great service on Father’s Day. The brunch menu was okay, but limited options. The bread pudding is delicious! I will have to go back and try the dinner menu.”
“I came across this place while googling nearby Korean restaurants while on a business trip to Tennessee, USA. The food was really delicious
I stopped by almost once every two days and kept eating.
Soups include kimchi stew and seafood soft tofu.
Main menu items include pork belly, bulgogi, and chicken stew.
I had red pepper pancake on the side, and it was all delicious without any regrets.
Foods with red soup are especially spicy, so I keep thinking about them. If you order from the menu, you get one bowl of rice each without the need to add additional rice, and they give you a lot of gobong rice.
It's a pity that I don't have any pictures because I was busy eating all the time.
The lady boss is very kind and I really recommend it haha.”
Fine Dining
“The food and atmosphere are exceptional. The music is a little odd and distracting. It’s unreasonable to expect that all the gentlemen dining in this restaurant in Memphis will wear a jacket. It seems pretentious to request one.”
“Our high tea for my daughter's 5th birthday was amazing! We had the best service from both the host and our server Courtney! They are very good about accommodating allergies, the food is absolutely delicious and the atmosphere is quiet and makes our girls feel like true princesses. The dessert ducky my daughter received for her birthday was THE highlight! She asks to go back every day now.
Just make sure you read the receipt right as 20% gratuity is already included. I didn't realize that as it didn't say what the 20% was for on the receipt, but the manager was very helpful on the phone to get that mistake reversed!
My favorite was the scone (the second course) and the Matcha tea.
Dietary restrictions: They were very accommodating of our dietary restrictions- one person was able to have gluten free and the other had pregnancy-safe (no cold cut / raw) items! Highly recommend.
Kid-friendliness: Our 5 and 7 year old girls had a blast! They have a kids option for the high tea and it was excellent!”
“❤The Traveling Boss Lady loves visiting new places to experience.
? Market Research is the best way to recommend to clients.
?Celebrating my cousin birthday. The server was excellent, the food & drinks was very tasty?. I had the lamb chops n jalapeno Mac n cheese with Strawberry lemon drop. We had so much fun, I forgot to take a picture of my food.”
“Fleming’s is wonderful if you’re in the mood for some great comfort food or a nice fine dining experience. Consistency is key & they do it well. Excellent service. A great steak, decadent desserts or Mac n cheese you dream about, you’ll leave full and happy. Highly recommend. 5 out of 5!”
“The Best Christmas Present Was Being Blessed With Knoledge Of Them Being Open Every Monday For Slices And Mini Pie Etc, Beautifully Spirited People You Truly Taste The Love In The Food. I Have Never Experienced As Much Consistency With Quality Desserts As I Have With GD, I Would Highly Recommend The Red Velvet, Carmel,Strawberry,And Carrot Cake.And Dont Get Me Started On The Sweet Potato Pie Yall This Is No Five Dollar Patty Pie, If I Had To Rate It On A Pay Scale I Would Pay $50 For A Slice(Ridiculous Right? Wrong, If U Have Never Tried It). If You Haven't Tried This Hidden Gem In Memphis You Are Missing Out I Have Personally Tried Almost Everything On The Menue(Even Coconut Which I Absolutely Dispise) And To My Astonishment I Licked Container Clean Is All I Have To Say.”
“This place is a whole vibe. The atmosphere is absolutely amazing. My husband and I went for date night. The food was incredibly fresh and mouth wateringly delicious. The service was exceptional. Our waitress (Justice) was A-1. The owner was super professional and engaging. The chef in the kitchen hands were blessedly by God to do exactly what they are doing in that kitchen. Overall review for us was a 10 out of 10 all the way around.”
“Since moving to town, this spot has become our go to. Delicious food, GREAT service, and amazing cocktails. Plus happy hours deals I’ve never seen beat yet. Whenever we’re stuck on where to go, we just go here. They’ll make you feel so welcome and will make sure you are happy and full.”
“The Bruschetta and Veal Piccata were excellent. Our service was great. A thoroughly enjoyable meal.”
Cheap Eats
“I got Buffalo Chicken egg rolls and Lemon Pepper wings. They both were seasoned to perfection. I was very impressed with the fast service and the quality of food. We were warmly welcomed and it was very inviting inside the establishment. I will definitely be going back to try more things from the menu!”
“The coffee here is great and the people working there were so nice! They were giving out some useful tourist advice to anyone who asked.
It's also really easy to get to, if you are staying at a hotel downtown, by using the trolley.”
“Excellent evening, fun band. I don’t typically like craft beer but the Golden is excellent.”
“Amazing ice cream and even better service. The Thai tea was delicious and so was the nanner puddin ice cream I got. 10/10 all the way around.”

“Great food, cowboy ribeye was perfect, duck was excellent!
Service from David R was exceptional! Pecan pie for dessert was on par with the rest of the meal.
The ofd thing about this place is its location. But don’t let that scare you away, this is well worth the visit!”
“The food and atmosphere are exceptional. The music is a little odd and distracting. It’s unreasonable to expect that all the gentlemen dining in this restaurant in Memphis will wear a jacket. It seems pretentious to request one.”

“Absolute best Italian in Memphis! Love this place, freshly made pastas.”
“Sean and his team did amazing, going above and beyond for our father's repast. In addition to their professionalism, the food was delicious, the space was beautifully decorated, and the musician, Darryl Jones, added a comforting touch to the atmosphere. They exceeded our expectations in every way. To the entire Blue Room Team, the Lowe family thanks you and deeply appreciates all your hard work during this difficult time. Special thanks to their manager, Mia, and Chef Avery! We absolutely recommend them and will definitely reach out for future events.”
“Great service great food. Hudson was the best server we have ever experienced. Very attentive and so kind. My wife and I split the Spinach Manicotti. Was great, warm, and filling! Great night all around. Will sure be coming back!”
“This was a great date night dinner!! Harley was our waitress an she was so sweet. Made sure we didnt need anything, an had good suggestions on food!! We had the whole outside to ourselves for anniversary an it was the perfect weather to just sit outside and enjoy eachother and great food!”
“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.”
“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”
“Sushi is good, but service is not. Hostess made us wait 10 minutes for a table for no apparent reason. Instead of setting us she chose to grab to go orders for those coming in afterwards. There were plenty of open tables. Drinks were sub par. Mine was hot. Service was slow for everything.”
“This place is a lunchtime staple of my week (at least once a week). They have a buffet style of many options as an affordable lunchtime price. All you can eat food and naan. My favorite is the lamb meatball curry.
Staff is great, feels family owned family environment and they remember you. Downtown / near Downtown can’t live without this place. It’s always hard to find parking during lunchtimes.”
“Definitely the best brewery in Memphis! Travis makes great beers true to style”
“My daughter found herself beset my shyness and couldn’t muster the courage to ask for a replacement beverage. I did what any good father would do, and asked in her stead. The staffs resolution was hasty and polite. I will be returning.”
“After traveling and enjoying fine Italian food I came back to Memphis with a craving of gnocchi.. quick google search brought me here !! And I’m so glad it did !! The fried green tomatoes and cornbread were delicious apps to start off !! A few mixed drinks and a glass of wine soothed the mood . The Gnocchi did not disappoint and the “ blue crab “ spaghetti was a pleasant surprise!! But the desert!!! The CHOCOLATE STICKY TOFFEE PUDDING ….Let me be clear … BEST DESERT IN ALL MY TRAVELS !! Cannot recommend Andrew Michael’s enough”
“Food was delicious! The service was OUTSTANDING! Loved the atmosphere. Wonderful experience!”
“Great beer and great people. Did I mention great beers.”
“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.”
“Great oxtail, rice and peas, pasta and curry goat!!! Very nice and great attitude from the staff.”
“Great asparagus soup and crème brulee. Love the Sunday specials.j”
“We are regulars and love everything about Venice Kitchen. Great happy hour during the week. Great brunch. Pizzas are delicious!”
“It was Monday, day one of State Jury Duty, and three of us head to Genre Restaurant for lunch. Its a quaint restaurant with a musical theme and Memphis vibe. The service was fast and efficient; menu was a QR Code at the table and Servers had handhelds to show your bill and take payment. We enjoyed Fish & Potatoes, Fish & Grits, and a Southwest Egg Roll. All were very good, but the fried catfish, cheese grits, and egg rolls were EXCEPTIONAL! Downtown Memphis has a lot of great food options, but Genre Restaurant offers such a unique experience I will definitely be back soon.”
“The food is expensive, but absolutely incredible. A single order can easily feed two people, and it's some of the best steak I've ever had. Definitely a great place for a significant celebration, like an anniversary or a birthday.”
“I must comment that I enjoyed eating in house for the first time at Red Hook. Tre Tre was great and very attentive as our server. Management overall was the best. I will definitely return to this restaurant in the near future.”
“This food tour was amazing and Harper, our guide was so knowledgeable about Memphis history and its restaurants. Our 5 stops included, BBQ spaghetti, both dry and wet ribs, an unbelievably delicious BBQ nachos, amazing gumbo, a fried burger which was surprisingly good and to top it all off a chocolate shake. I can't thank Harper enough for making our trip to Memphis so memorable. I know want to come back to Memphis just to go to more a Harper's restaurant reconditions.”
“This locally owned restaurant is well worth a stop if you're in Memphis. We stumbled upon it while visiting the area and I am so glad! Try the lobster mac....it's to die for!! Kudos from Texas Bluff City Crab ?”
“This place is amazing! They accommodated our fiftieth birthday! And it was awesome! We love love Brie and her famous chocolate shot! We had a wonderful time and we appreciate everything they did to help us celebrate.”
“Our high tea for my daughter's 5th birthday was amazing! We had the best service from both the host and our server Courtney! They are very good about accommodating allergies, the food is absolutely delicious and the atmosphere is quiet and makes our girls feel like true princesses. The dessert ducky my daughter received for her birthday was THE highlight! She asks to go back every day now.
Just make sure you read the receipt right as 20% gratuity is already included. I didn't realize that as it didn't say what the 20% was for on the receipt, but the manager was very helpful on the phone to get that mistake reversed!
My favorite was the scone (the second course) and the Matcha tea.
Dietary restrictions: They were very accommodating of our dietary restrictions- one person was able to have gluten free and the other had pregnancy-safe (no cold cut / raw) items! Highly recommend.
Kid-friendliness: Our 5 and 7 year old girls had a blast! They have a kids option for the high tea and it was excellent!”
“What a great find for our first stop in Memphis! After a long drive from Little Rock, we needed a drink. As soon as we pulled up, we knew we had found a gem, with stunning views over the field and towards the Mississippi and downtown. The beers were exceptional, showcasing the brewmaster's skill. My only disappointment was the bartender, who was dry and unfriendly. Nonetheless, I'm looking forward to returning and planning around any future events they might have.”
“Loved Rendezvous! Though the last time my hubby & I went the ribs were so dry & hard. We came from the Rio Grande Valley in Texas because we love the food, wish it were consistent. We probably caught the cook on a bad day.”
“Great place for full lunch or a tapas and drinks vibe. Always fresh and delicious. Always go for the guac! Servers and staff have been great every single time and the quality doesn't vary depending on the day/time. Consistently delicious! Their chips are so yum. Brunch is the move.”
“I absolutely love this place… it is soooo good , I can’t wait to go back”
“❤The Traveling Boss Lady loves visiting new places to experience.
? Market Research is the best way to recommend to clients.

“It was very hot inside, but other than that my experience was awesome. Great bartender who made a great Sazerac. The Don Buri was INCREDIBLE. The pork belly was crispy but tender, the rice was seasoned and spicy, I just loved it. Will be back next time I'm in Memphis.”
“I only went to the lobby for a birthday party. From what I saw, it was small. One of the guess stated the rooms were small. The bathroom on the lobby floor was clean.”

“I loooooooove the service, the food, and the waiter was superb. You guys are awesome!”
“I’m so glad I finally gave this place a shot after hearing nothing but great things about the food. I’ve been a bit of an addict since. Their pizza is phenomenal. I also love the tator kegs and the queso dip is some of the best I’ve ever had. The chicken strips are so crunchy and perfect, and the loaded fries are absolutely amazing. That’s all I’ve tried so far, but at this rate every single thing they offer is fantastic. Will continue to be a repeat customer!”
“The gazpacho soup was superb and very different. The crème brule’ was also beautifully presented and delicious. The crab cakes were served with a delicious salad with mango and avocado. The bartender makes a delicious Manhattan.
Sam was our waiter and was charming and efficient.”

“When I say get here, that's what I mean. This is a hidden gem in Whitehaven. You will not be disappointed. Me and my hubby decided to try them out last night because they seems to be only place opened late night in this area. Our 1st experience was great. When we walked in the young lady sitting in the both look like she had just sat down. We advised her this was our 1st visit and they didn't fall short on the customer service at all!!!! When the cook came out and lined our plates up and handed us a spoon to try our meal.... babbbyyyy I knew that food was fye!! And YES, it was all good!! Me and mine will definitely be back as this is now our new favorite place.

Dietary restrictions: They are willing to substitute.”
“Last year in March 2022, I attended a birthday gathering on the official opening weekend and it was TERRIBLE. No one in our party received the food that was ordered. I spoke with the owner and we chalked the negative experience up to the restaurant bring new and growing pains. Fast forward to today. I made a 12:30pm reservation. We arrive at 12:20pm. The parking lot is full except for about 10 spots around the front and side of the restaurant. I asked the gentleman in the Dallas Cowboys Hoodie about parking.He says, "You can park on the street or pay $20 for the reserved parking." Nothing on the website states anything about paid parking, so we were not prepared with cash. I'm also confused about the parking to reservations ratio for the business. The restaurant opens at 12pm. I arrive 10 minutes (12:20) before my reservation (12:30) and there's no parking. Unfortunately, we left and ended up having brunch at a different restaurant. I'm hopeful that at least the restaurant sees this review and updates the website to address the parking situation.”
“Love going to purchase my ham and turkey for special occasions. Employees are knowledgeable and helpful to explain to customers what is the best deal to purchase.
Really love that they give Veterans Discount for our service to our country ❤️
Parking: If it’s around the holidays, it can be difficult to find parking close by the store.”

I like the seating areas for inside and outside seating. The mural of Memphis is fun and showcases cool spots. I can’t recommend this place more. It’s a must go.

Having a doorman puts a certain class to the place that we all appreciated! The food was BOMB except for the collards. The mimosas were potent and well worth the bottomless price!
