The restaurant was amazing! The waffles, fried lobster, home fries, and waffle were amazing. I will most definitely visit the next time I am in Memphis. The proprietor has the best countenance, he is someone you could speak with all day.

We were coming in from out of town for thanksgiving and they were closed that Monday. They opened their doors for us and cooked us some amazing fried lobster, waffles and home fries. Nicest people and fantastic food. Can’t say enough good about this place!

Let me tell you about Jim & Samella's.
The food is cooked from Chef Talbert's heart.. his secret ingredient is LOVE ❤️.
There is no set menu, you get what you get when you get there.
He has a small intimate family type setting... its like sitting in your folks' dining room on Sunday. 🙏🏾
You meet no strangers there.☺️
This is hands down for me the best place I've frequented in the 5 yrs I've been here and I do not play about MY food ‼️
