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.

Had the brisket which had a lot of fat on it. The greens were very watery, no taste. Jiffy cornbread. Fried okra was too salty. Food definitely prepared ahead and you could tell by the taste. Wouldn't recommend.

Mediocre food that is seriously overpriced. The water coming out of the soda machine tasted like the lines have t been cleaned in years.

It is a theme-park eatery, serving the multitudes with cafeteria line service. With that said, some of the best collards I’ve had in Memphis.

Nice place. Not great, but probably the best at Graceland. Bbq above average.

Absolutely do not recommend this place I went with a party of 4 and all of their food came cold. The fish was overly salty, okra tasted like it was sitting there for 2 hours, and when we ordered "dinner rolls", we got uncooked slider buns instead. But the workers were nice and the atmosphere is clean.

Self where we are served 2 vegetables first then the meat later. It was difficult to understand at first. Good evening ribs as well as minced pork. Sweet potatoes are delicious

Got yelled at by the lady at the carving station bcz we didn't have a tray. It was a to-go order and the workers up the line didn't give her the to-go box either and somehow that was our fault. Refused to chop the beef, got big, thick, dry slices and the cost was ridiculous! $57 for two sandwiches, 2 bags of chips and 2 drinks..

The food is a bit pricy. There are several choices. The veggies are pretty salty. Convenient when you’re spending the day at
