“Absolutely must stop place in MemphisWent on a road trip last summer and stopped in Memphis, heard many good things about Gus’ so I went to try it myself. This place really lives up to its name! The food was amazing, I’m not a big fan of chicken, but this chicken is beyond delicious. Best chicken I’ve ever had by far! The atmosphere is great, the service is great, and the location is convenient. Highly recommend this place to anyone planning to stop in Memphis!“
“Came here for a dinner with some colleagues, and the service was exceptional. Our server was so attentive but not overbearing. He knew all the answers to our questions and was very knowledgeable on the menu and wine list. He gave us some great recommendations. The apps we got were solid. I only give it 4 stars, because my Chilean sea bass left something to be desired. The fish and the polenta and spinach it came with were very bland to me. Cooked very well, but very bland tasting. Which is so unfortunate because the dish came highly recommended, and I LOVE Chilean sea bass. Oh well, next time I’ll get something else!“
“where do I start? ?the service is chefs kiss ?- I’ve always had amazing servers who try to make our experience special.✨I could write a love song aboutthe wedge salad. I get it every time.✨I dream about the thunderbird pizza. (also, all the pizzas can come gluten free! big win) It’s slightly spicy and sweet.✨I wish I could swim in the espresso martini.. I think it's the best one in Memphis. they have a revolving drink menu and I've never tried one I didn't like.my only complaint is it's a little loud in the center of the room so it's hard to hear if you're sitting at a large table.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free“
“Nice place on Beale Street in Memphis with Live Music to listen to a few tunes. Not much to do on a Sunday night, still a great place to grab a beer and ordening a beer at the somewhat 'rude by design' bartender :)Great night with Live music. One of the only bars with Live music without a cover charge.“
“The food, service, and experience of eating at this restaurant made me eat there twice. The restaurant and employees went above my expectations to make me feel special. This restaurant is a great place to visit and dine in and I recommend it upon your visit to Memphis. I can’t wait to return to Memphis to try a new dish from the menu. The catfish, mac and cheese, hush puppies, and greens almost took me out, lol very delicious and the dessert was simply to die for.“
“The gal that took my order @ take out counter was very nice, friendly, helpful & attentive! She waited on another person after me & very nice & helpful! The meal was delicious ? hit the spot however the pieces of fish were very small as 2 pieces equaled 1 piece if sitting in the restaurant. The fries were like Wendy's fries & not like yall used to have! I called when I got home & a guy answered the phone & I told him my concern & he said he tells ppl to check the order before leaving which I didnt know I need to but I will from now on if i return. Me & a friend split the meal. The price was fine, the fish tasted good ?, she wasn't happy w/ her meal or her pecan pie so the 5* was more for the gal that took the order even tho my fish tasted good the pieces were way to small. The food I would rate a 3*Parking: Got a place near take out door.“
“This was one of the best restaurant experiences I have ever had, I'm was in Memphis visiting for a conference and found this place close to the Hotel, best hospitality from the owner, and on top of that the tastiest food you have had in your life, if I come back to Memphis I will be coming here daily.“
“During a recent visit, our son suggested meeting here for breakfast. It was packed and required a short wait, but we really enjoyed the atmosphere. All servers were very helpful and the food, while not fancy, was just how we like it. Coffee isn't great but the biscuits are!“
“The name insinuates that it's a family environment, sit in type of restaurant. Actually, it's more of a run in and run out style restaurant. The owner of the old Cheesecake corner has opened this quaint little place in honor of his mom. I can only rate the desserts (not the food). That's why I rated it a 4. The blueberry cheesecake is quite tasty. It's not made with Philadelphia cream cheese. It has more texture but it's fabulous! Warm the brownie for 15 secs and is every bit of dilectable in every bite! For people taking a walk in the neighborhood, it's a spot to stop in and pick up a quick throat guzzling beer or water. I'm not a chicken and waffle kinda girl but I suggest you stop by and try it.“
“The spot was on point! We sat at the bar on a Sunday. The bar tender KD was amazing! She makes really good drinks! The entire staff were very friendly and attentive! The Crab Cake Benedict was delicious! Cooked to perfection! It's my new favorite entree! My husband ordered the salmon Benedict! He loved his meals too! He said that's one of our spots!“
“They still have it going on here at Gus's on Mendenhall! As I entered, I was promptly greeted by the staff and seated immediately. Once seated, my server Ariel, brought my beverage quickly and took my order. She also notified me about the special they had going on, which I thought was nice if I wanted to get the biggest bang for my buck. The food was excellent as usual and came out quickly. During my dining experience, Ariel checked on me multiple times and offered desert once I was done. I swear this lady has to get about 100k steps a day because she had multiple tables and I watched her take care of all of them. Gus is lucky I live in Atlanta, or I would be trying to steal their employee for my establishment.“
“By far and away, the best wine list in Memphis (and probably the entire state save for BlackBerry Farm). The owner selects each bottle personally, curating an elite list of high-end pinot noir (new world and burgundy) and Napa Cabernet that goes far beyond the usual, basic Caymus/Prisoner offerings you get at other peer establishments. It is a bit of a splurge but it’s worth it every time.“
“My husband had a cup of gumbo to start with. It was thick and tasty. The shrimp and catfish po’boys are very good. The poboy sandwiches come with fries and hushpuppies. Unfortunately, the hushpuppies don’t have much taste. Although the catfish was well prepared, it was awkward to eat and not evenly distributed across the sandwich. The prices seemed a little high, but this is Memphis.“
“We tried the Pesto Alfredo with Shrimp (needed extra sauce), Lasagna, and the Half and Half (Ravioli and spaghetti). Everything was huge portions and tasted delicious. Warning: this is old fashioned Italian meat sauce that some refer to as a gravy, not your standard American spaghetti sauce.“
“It’s an awesome place for a burger ? done fast and delicious ?!!! The price and the service were outstanding. I love the vibes and how cozy the place was.Parking: It’s a city so it’s gets harder to park as the place gets packed. Yet there is a ton of parking.“
“I called on my way home & was greeted in the most cheerful way by a man saying Thank you for calling KC's ...we got what you need! He sounds so happy to be at work ?I was told it was a 25 minute wait & I was only a few minutes away, so I said to cancel my order. I believe the man's name was Blue?? He said come on. I'll take care of you &ge did!! I didn't wait at all. That's V.I.P customer service this busy REALTOR needs!! 10/10 ?“
“I was a first timer and I'm always excited about supporting a black owned business and I told the cashier that but she wasn't friendly or talkative at all, the food was expensive (but what's not these days) but IT WAS SOOO GOOD! I will try once more and hopefully the owner reads this and will speak with cashier about her unfriendly, unconcerned customer service.“
“What a treat! This is food that is prepared with love and caring. I only had vegetables and yet they were amazing. Cooked nicely — yams were soft and sweet, green beans were soft without being mushy, mac and cheese creamy and perfection, in other words it was everything expected!Oh — and cornbread worthy of a southern cook!Looks like they have different choices daily. Look forward to returning and trying some chicken.“
“Wow! A hidden gem in Memphis! Amazing Food and Great Customer Service. The owner is a Professional and Excellent cook. The Fish Sandwich was the best I ever had in my life! The steak fries were huge and well seasoned. This place is a must stop in Memphis especially if you're headed to the Casinos from the city.“
“Food was great. Only in town for one day and to complicate things my husband is newly on crutches AND we are traveling with our dog. Brian the security guard out front was very kind and helped out pup and hobbling husband to the patio while I ordered. Cold beer and generous portions were enjoyed and the live music was great although we couldn’t hear it on the patio“
“Great experience at Woman’s Exchange of Memphis! Wonderful food in the Tea room and a nice gift shop combine to make this an excellent nonprofit that is here to empower women!Rev. Bailey is quite the chef, serving up flavorful and balanced southern cuisine in a relaxed and calm environment. Would recommend supporting this establishment!“
“I just love Chicken Salad Chick with all the selections, friendly service, and great atmosphere. I introduced CSC to my husband and he was so impressed that he got an extra scoop to go. I got the Jalapeño Holly and grape salad. It was such a fantastic combo. Big portions and full of flavor.“
“Love this place! Good ol southern cooked foods!! Love going and getting a vegetable plate. With the occasional meats! The only issue i have is .. Not enough cornbread when I get the vegetable plates (i always get the cabbage &/or greens with the juices) i run outta cornbread before i run outta veggies! Lol“
“Every time we go to Memphis, we stop here. Their food and service are excellent. One of us always gets the catfish and I choose either fried shrimp or the cuban. You wouldn't expect that the cuban would be a good choice at a restaurant that highlights seafood,but you'd be wrong. It consistently is the best one I've had regardless of the restaurant. Service is great. Refills come unsolicited,which is refreshing.“
“We selected the tacos and a chicken nugget meals. The tacos were great. Far better than anything at Taco Bell , more like what you would get at Swanky’s or a more upscale place. The nuggets were better than what you’d get at the McD or Chic fil A. Very enjoyable. I’d come back.Kid-friendliness: Kids will find smaller portion items.“
“If you're craving a mix of Chinese cuisine and comforting home-cooked soul food, this spot is perfect for you. They offer a variety of dishes including pig feet, chitlins, fried rice, orange chicken, and more. I always try to go before the Rush Hour.“
“My family and I had such a great time on Saturday for brunch! We appreciate the hospitality and service. Everything was amazing. Low low (our server) was very attentive and had immaculate customer service. Lernard(owner) was very personable in regards to our experience as well. The ambiance was the bomb!!!! Thank you again for accommodating our large party to celebrate my younger cousin’s 18th birthday!!! We will be back. Please support!“
“I love they candy yams & dressing, but they only serve dressing on fridaysVegetarian options: They have all veggie plates with no meat what so everKid-friendliness: They have kid portions to all the food on the menuParking: The parking lot is pretty spaciousWheelchair accessibility: Yes its wheelchair accessableDietary restrictions: They have grilled foods & healty veggies of thats your thing“
“Excellent service ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I ordered the catfish and grits, it was my first time trying fish and grits and it was really good. My only critique would be how the fish and grits were plated, once i made it home, a great amount of my grits were in the bag but other than that everything was good. I will definitely be going back to try the jerk chicken and rice.“
“My husband and I aren't fans of buffets under normal circumstances but we were given free breakfast by the hotel so we figured, why not? We came down for Saturday breakfast buffet and scored a very nice booth right across from the buffet area. Our friendly waitress immediately brought coffee and juice and checked on us throughout the meal and removed the plates, etc. She was a sweetheart. She even brought me a mug to include in my instagram pic that said "Guest House at Graceland" while I was taking pics of my guitar waffles, lol. The choices are great - they had eggs, bacon, sausage, potatoes, biscuits, gravy all warm in the warming station. They also had a waffle bar and omelette bar you could order made fresh for you. My husband had a HUGE omelette and enjoyed it. The waffle was good and had a guitar in the center. They had a side bar with fresh fruits, yogurt, parfait and cereal and milk. The food was very good, warm, fresh and constantly being refilled. Inside seating is nice, tabletop was nice, and the decor is nice. It was very clean. We actually really enjoyed the meal and commented it was way above expectations.“
“I've visited several time but my most recent visit was worth bragging about and reviewing. I don't know who was in that kitchen but they know what they are doing! Everything on my plate was delicious! I had fried pork chops that were perfectly fried and not dry, yams that were sweet and the perfect texture, and cabbage that melted in my mouth with perfect seasoning.Y'all they are certainly heavenly.“
“I wasnt playing around with lunch today. I went hard. ?????. BBQ pork chop, smoked neck bone, cabbage, cornbread and mash potatoes. I'm about to go into a coma frfr. #SoulFoodThe service was amazing and the owner made me feel like family. I fully intend on putting on some LB's considering how close it is to my house. Everything was and/or looked delicious.“
“Food was delicious but we must have had a waiter that was ready to go home or was not paying attention to our order. 3 other couples had been seated after us and served 15 minutes before us. Wasn't impressed with the service. Good food though.“
“I had dinner at Memphis Soul tonight and it was pure pleasure. The owner was personable and kind, the food was fresh, savory, and delicious! I've been in Memphis for a conference for a week and my dinner here was the best food and service I had! The restaurant is colorful and filled with charm. Go if you have the chance, you will enjoy it immensely.“
“We had a large group and were seated instantly. For appetizers we had the fried stuffed avocados which were really good. But the Cajun shrimp and beer bread was the highlight of this meal. The bread was grilled and just so delicious especially dipped in the juice the shrimp was sitting in. That app was 5+ stars. My entree was not so appealing. I ordered shrimp and grits the grits were flavorful, the shrimp was flavorful but there was so much grease/oil that rendered the meal unenjoyable. The atmosphere is great. There is live music, great design and the staff was incredible.“
