We hit up an amazing Black-owned gem tucked right in the heart of downtown Memphis. From the moment we walked in, it felt like I was at my cousin’s house—warm, welcoming, and full of love. The customer service? 10/10. The vibes? Immaculate. And that fish and okra? Baby, I’m convinced somebody’s grandma was in that kitchen throwin’ down! 😮💨🔥
Just what my soul needed on a Sunday. I’ll definitely be back again… and again.
Value for money and full of flavor.
This was a nice place to visit, very personable. The food wait was a little slow but it’s a small kitchen. I ordered the genre lamb which comes with potatoes and waffles. The lamb lollipops(I got 4) were small but it tasted good. The waffles were nice and crisp, I just wish they didn’t put my syrup on the waffle and/or gave me some on the side. Hubby had the grits and lamb, the grits were delicious and I usually want sugar but none was needed! That speaks volumes for me. The drinks were delicious and the staff were friendly. If I visit Memphis again I will be sure to go back!
The atmosphere was amazing, the food was great!

First time here at the Genre and I have to say the vibe was amazing. The staff was very friendly and attentive. The food, OMG was oh so good! The taco flight was top tier and the wings and fries were fried to perfection.

I tried some fried Oreos from their food truck when they were setup at the Foodees event! They were aMaZinG!!!! And the staff was very friendly too!
Fun atmosphere, love the Catfish!!
This place has a lot of potential, however my wife and I were disappointed with our experience. The atmosphere of the restaurant is great. Now I’ll move onto the disappointing part. First, they gave us our food in to-go containers, even though we were dining in. Next, the food quality was subpar. The wings from the chicken and waffles were dry, and the catfish and grits were very runny. The catfish seemed undercooked. I got the mimosa flight and they all tasted rancid. Maybe our experience would be different had we not come in 1 hour before they closed. Overall, we will not come here for brunch again.

This was my first and last time visiting this restaurant/club or shall I say Club/restaurant. I appreciate these young men wanting to open up a business but learn how to run a successful restaurant. They have brunch but no eggs, bacon or sausage on the menu. They are serving high end dishes that absolutely do not equate to the prices. I had lamb chops, potatoes and waffles. The waffles were blonde, potatoes was diced so small and the lamb chops were the size of my thumb and they were hard and taste like a pork chop or neckbones (I couldn’t tell). The mimosas came in plastic cups I had to ask for garnish. We had plastic eating utensils. The owner/ cook came out with a very very wrinkled uniform. I made the best of the situation paid my bill enjoyed my friends BUT I WILL NEVER EVER RETURN Oh, the beignets were a hot mess It looked as if they were dipped in an extra batter and tastes As if they were fried in old grease.
