The destination was supposed to be New Orleans, but it was nowhere close to Cancun food. The meal was served at room temperature, considering the lengthy wait time, despite being one of only three patrons. The floor was sticky to walk on. The server was satisfactory, and the straws were already in the beverages; however, I prefer to open and place my own straw. Workers entered without a greeting. We will not be returning.

Always excellent. The menu is on the smaller side, but the quality makes up for it. I love how they always have new and interesting cocktails to try

A fun authentic place with an active bar scene, even in the middle of the afternoon, with authentic Southern food. I was there on a Saturday afternoon in August and was impressed that locals were hanging out at the bar in addition to a sizable crowd of restaurant patrons.
I was part of large group of people of all ages, and everyone seemed to enjoy their food. As a visitor to the area, I was delighted to have classic Southern food such as fried gulf oysters and fried catfish sandwiches as options.
Parking was difficult which is to be somewhat expected as the place in Midtown Memphis, and while I eventually found parking on a side street, the neighborhood has parking restricted to residents only on several areas.

My family and I ate there on yesterday, 7/24. The atmosphere was very nice. The food was not what we expected. We expected more of a NOLA taste since we are from NOLA and Texas. It was bland and not tasty. Drinks were good. The waiter was excellent!! Not the experience we were looking for.đ«

As a regular at Swamp Bar there is very little about this gem that I am not very appreciative of. Their brussel sprouts - best I ever had. Their happy hour - best in the city bar none. And their service - bafflingly impeccable - every single server there is a master at hospitality and genuine engagement. The atmosphere - again very little competition there in the city. I love it inside and out. Thank you for being dependable - please don't ever change.

Great food, great service, and amazing drinks! Jacob is extremely knowledgeable, attentive, and one of the best bartenders I have seen. I had a great evening at this restaurant and would definitely recommend!

Pad Thai was a little Oily, Shanghai fried noodles were clumped together. Drinks and service were on point...

Have repeatedly accepted Uber Eats orders then cancelled them 30 minutes later. Just turn off your app instead of wasting half an hour of my day.

The food was underseasoned. Everything was hot and fresh but not well seasoning at all. The red beans and rice side item was more like bean and rice soup. I have no idea why the red beans and rice was bitter. It tasted like someone added a slash of vinegar to it. The customer service was good and it was family friendly. It was affordable. My family of 5 ate for $113 (including our tip). Overall would not recommend.
Swamp Bar was incredible. It has a very cool vibe with great cocktails and a killer menu. Our table was very happy with our orders. I loved the atmosphere and would say itâs one of the coolest bars in Memphis!

Yesterday was my first time at Second line and they didnât disappoint. Lock was awesome (and it was only his 2nd day!) and Sophie was super helpful. I was so full I didnât get to order the bread pudding, but thatâs okay. Iâll definitely be back for it!
The Second Line was pretty good for brunch. I was dissapointed in the limited menu though, I should have gone later for some of the menu items I saw online and wanted to try. We had one bloody mary, one tea, wings as an appetizer, a fried shrimp poboy and a fried oyster poboy. The bill was around $72 before adding the tip. Our server was really nice, no complaints with service! They were working on the store so it was a little confusing to find the entrance. We had reservations for the patio and it was perfect outside, just lots of flies buzzing about. I'd go back, but I think there are so many awesome options in Memphis it may not be anytime soon.

We made reservations a month prior for a Saturday brunch on May 17. It was to be post graduation celebration. It was a larger party. I called and spoke with Hogan who took name cell phone and required a credit card to hold the reservation. We arrived at the restaurant at noon to find it closed for renovation with only bar service on patio No one ever called us - made an attempt to text or anything. It was quite a mess - everyone was hot and tired and very hungry after. 3 hour plus ceremony. Needless to say it ruined what was to be a joyous celebration ! We were appalled. We have family in Memphsis who gave glowing recommendations for this place I would NEVER EVER recommend this place in light of our treatment !!

Pictured: etouffĂ©e, New York strip with crawfish Mac and cheese, drinks were âwhen the levee breaksâ i think. (They were similar to a hurricane)
