Owen Brennan's is consistent with its service and food presentation. Our waiter answered all of our questions and checked on us to be sure everything was great. Like always, the Bananas Foster was a hit!

Everthing was fantastic from start to finish. Matthew provided excellent service - quick to anticipate needs without being intrusive. Kudos to the bartender for one of the best espresso martinis in Memphis! If you haven't been here for Taco Tuesday, you are missing out. The blackened tilapia tacos were nothing short of perfection.

Today was my sister's birthday and this was her first time at Owen Brennan's. I have never been disappointment with the total experience, but today was the best. Thank you for making this day special for her!

All 4 diners had something different, and all 4 were GREAT meals! Appetizers and deserts were outstanding as well!
Carol
I arrived at the restaurant and there was a sign on the door that they were closed for the day.

We went on a Monday night. We had to wait for one guest to arrive before we were seated in a restaurant that was NOT full at all, so that was a bit annoying. The service was a little slower than normal, not sure if the staff was short handed or not. Overall I would say a 4.2 service.

We went to Owen Brennans for our 47th wedding anniversary and it was amazing. The food was so good and service excellent. The restaurant is beautiful. Kari

Initially, they wanted to seat us in a room that was way far down in the back of the restaurant where nobody else was sitting and no one else was sitting in all the tables that we passed by or in the main restaurant. I was eating with my mother who is 80 and can't walk a long distance and asked if we could move closer to buffet. They didn't give us an option for any meals besides the Buffett which had a lot of “dinner” type food. It just wasn't the “brunch” type food we were expecting. I would not go back for brunch.

We were told that Open Table made a mistake in granting us a reservation. We waited for over 40min to be seated AFTER being told the only way we could be served is if we go to the bar. Had to talk to a manager to even be seated. Only stayed because of the $40 hold on Open Table for the reservation.

As usual, everything was exceptional. I must give a shout out to our server, Paris. She was absolutely wonderful! She was attentive and so friendly. A plus on her service. Also, to the kitchen staff who cooked the Parmesan crusted grouper...chef's kiss! The red beans and rice were fire as usual. We will see y'all soon!!! ❤️
Went here for a birthday dinner and had an AMAZING experience. Our server, Matt, was fantastic. The cocktails were delicious. All of the food was wonderful, but particularly the carpaccio, oysters, and parmesan crusted grouper. Will definitely be coming back and won't be waiting for a special occasion.

The overall experience was terrible at Owen Brennan's. Their customer service representative called me to inform me that in order to maintain my 3 PM reservation I needed to put a credit card on file and I would be charged a $48 fee for every individual that did not show. This is not an unusual request, however, it is usually reserved for restaurants that have immaculate service and on this day, it was not the case. On this same call Owen Brennan's customer representative also informed me that on Sundays brunch was served from 9 AM until 1 p.m, however this did not concern me because my reservation was for 3 PM. For a restaurant that should be considered four or five stars it was a tremendous disappointment. The Resturant was a complete failure in food and service. We arrivied to the restaurant on time meeting our 3 PM reservation and after being seated we were greeted by our waitress but did not see her again until I had a complaint to the manager. We were forced to participate in the brunch buffet, which should have ended at 1 PM. The brunch buffet could not compensate for the amount of people that were trying to be served. People were reaching over the food allowing their clothing and hair to hang over trays of uncovered food which made it very unsanitary. They begin to run out of food on the buffet and communicated to the guest that they were not bringing out any more food yet we were never giving an opportunity to order from the menu. This statement was contradicted by the manager, informing the guest that they were trying to prepare more food for the buffet however, we need to be patient and wait, which demonstrated a lack of concern for your patron and an atmosphere of disorder. They served us cokes that were flat and drinks from the bar in unwashed glasses. The outcome of this disaster was an embarrassing frustrating fiasco and presented a flawed image of me as a husband because I am ultimately responsible for planning my wife's Mother's Day dinner. Kud

Enjoyed celebrating Mother's Day brunch at the restaurant. Food was decent and maybe contribute that to the quick turnaround for the large crowd. Lawson introducing himself and taking a genuine approach to come to our table definitely is a treat which most restaurants lack these days.

One of my favorite restaurants in Memphis! Definitely top 5! They never disappoint food is great and the service is even better!

Showed up for the fried green tomatoes and stayed for the BBQ Shrimp, spinach salad, and the redfish. The hurricane and wine were tasty and we had, hands down, the best service. Will definitely be back!
