The food is unbelievably good. I highly recommend the ribs and wings. No other place in Memphis has food this good. The atmosphere is perfect for grabbing a drink with friends.
The best wings and ribs I’ve ever had in Memphis. We’ll definitely be back! Great atmosphere. When you’re here you’re family ♥️

Placed a pick up order via phone. The person taking the order was nice. I had never been to this place before. It’s your typical dive bar but it was packed on a Saturday late afternoon. FYI this is a CASH ONLY establishment. Maybe there is a sign in the building that I missed that said this but I definitely wasn’t told when I placed my order via phone. Paid $31 for cheeseburger and fries and about 7 small drummies. Seems a little expensive but maybe this is the typical price for dive bar food. I was never shown a receipt so I can’t tell you the price for each item. Food was fine.

Arrived on Sunday July 9th at 245pm and waited till 3.30pm. Called several times but no answer. Guess they aren't really open on Sundays like the website says. But I love the Greek, the atmosphere and the staff. Just wish I didn't have to wait till Monday.

Nice dive bar. Cash only, but they have an ATM. Burgers and wings were reasonably sized and priced. Limited draft list, but there's probably something there you'll like. Good conversations and friendly service.
I'm not from Memphis, but I was right to assume the best ribs in the city wouldn't be anywhere near downtown. Locals assured me I made the right choice! Alex's Tavern was simply incredible: a must try! Rocky's food is second to none!

One of the last true dive bars left in Memphis. Popped in here on the way home after a concert. Was only a few folks in here, but Rocky the proprietor was serving up just pulled ribs and gumbo. So I got some bones and a bowl to take home. The grub is GREAT. Get you some along with a cold beer while you wait. Put a couple dollars in the juke boxes and soak in the funk of a real Memphis landmark.

Great low key local dive bar with a cool owner. They have cold beer, a juicy Greek burger, and TVs to watch sports or regular TV. I've gotta come back for the Ribs & Gumbo
