Went to see Sevendust at Graceland Soundstage and ate here before the show. The food was not the worst I have ever eaten but also was not great. I had chicken fingers, yams and green beans. I had corn bread as my bread option. The yams were good just bland. The green beans had too much butter on them. The corn bread was very sweet and more like cake than a corn bread consistency. The chicken fingers were dry and not much better than something I could have microwaved at home. I also had a peanut butter cookie that was decent. The meal was not super expensive at $18 or so(that included a nice souvenir tumbler - I am not sure what the price would have been otherwise for a regular cup). I would eat here again. Graceland is very well laid out. I wish that I would have been able to go to the ice cream parlor that they had but it closed at 5. I would eat here again if I came back. Everyone was friendly and the restaurant was clean and the atmosphere was nice.

Every worker in the building just seemed so annoyed to be there. I felt like a burden to them. I would pass on the peach cobbler and corn, the brisket and ribs were decent. It’s a good deal if you got a meal voucher with your ticket, otherwise skip it.

Food was just ok. I can make better ribs at home. The staff in Vernon's Smokhouse were very rude. I couldn't even give them 1 star! Don't expect service to be even close to what fast food service is, it's much lower. If you want great BBQ, go to BB Kings Blues Club!

We were excited to eat here, as we looked at the menu previously and thought amazing, well we walked in to Vernon’s smokehouse and it smelt bad like stale food, the staff looked unhappy and unhelpful so we didn’t stay we walked Straight back out again

We came here for lunch because all the other restaurants in Graceland were closed. The lady who took our order was very rude, and when we asked for meatloaf and snapped at us and told us that they don’t serve meatloaf anymore. The food was very poor and the meat was tough and dry. Recommend visiting Target and getting sandwiches instead

We had been here once before and the food was good. This time the hushpuppies tasted old as if they had been reheated from the day(s) before. The slice of brisket came with a large amount of fat with less meat.
The servers acted as though they were being bothered as we made our selection of food. It is a cafeteria style restaurant and had been great service and food in the past.

Would never recommend this place. It was crap and a waste of money. Was literally jail food or elementary cafeteria food and was either cold, too hard, bland etc...both my meal and my wife's meal just crap. DO NOT eat here. AB-SO-LUTE garbage. Also very obvious they were using the cheapest ingredients and some of the stuff obviously just out of a can and still not good. NOPE NOPE NOPE AND HECK NOPE!

A cafeteria style restaurant located at the entrance of the Graceland Exhibits. I had the BBQ sampler. The brisket was dry but the chicken was seasoned. There were plenty of side options to choose from. The salads looked delicious and fresh. They have fountain drinks to choose from and tea. The cups were small though. I guess they wanted you to buy a larger souvenir cup
The restaurant had plenty of seating and wasn't packed at all. After spending several hours walking the museums, sitting down to eat was well worth it. I spent $63 on two plates and I didn't buy any souvenir items.

It was okay for amusement park food but I didn’t like the green beans, rice and ribs. Mac’n’cheese was good.
Vernon’s BBQ in Memphis? Honey, yes please! Those ribs were fall-off-the-bone fabulous—smoky, juicy, and dripping in that finger-lickin’ good sauce. I was out there living my best BBQ life. And don’t even get me started on the banana pudding… creamy, dreamy, and sweet enough to make you wanna slap your mama (but, like, respectfully). The vibe is casual, the staff are cool, and the food hits just right. If you’re near Graceland and not stopping by Vernon’s, what are you even doing?
Spent over 3.5 hours touring Graceland without a break and we were famished.
We decided on dining@ Vernon’s smokehouse and we were not disappointed!
We ordered the meatloaf and brisket dinner plates with a chef salad.
Every single item ordered was on point.
We don’t like too much salt and the food was perfectly seasoned without the generous sodium.
The staff was friendly and helpful and gave that genuine Southern hospitality and we appreciate that.
Overall, the food was delicious, it hit the spot and was served with a smile.
We were fueled and ready to hit the road back to Nashville.
Thank You.
Not worth the money. The catfish was not fresh, you could tell that most of the food was not fresh in the containers and the staff (mostly the cashier) were not friendly at all.
