    Fred is an awesome server, the gal in the gift shop rules, and the fried green tomatoes are to die for. Add on the free ride to and fro and you can't beat it.

    The best brisket I ever had! And they will pick you up at your hotel in a pink Cadillac, wine and dine you, and then take you back to your hotel.

    Hands down best in Memphis. The pork shoulder is off the charts and the BBQ pasta is a must try ! Friendly and not a tourist trap... Best part if you are staying in the area they will pick you up

    The ribs were pretty good. The chicken was not cooked all the way. The pulled pork sandwiches were very good. The Mac and cheese is amazing!

    If you like watching your favorite sport while eating delicious and tasty ribs, Marlowe's is the place for you! Half rack ribs + Apple pie w/ ice cream, that will do you for the day.

    Go for the combo platter, then load that plate up with ribs and brisket. You can't lose on any of the sides, esp. the mac n' cheese, baked beans, and fried okra.

    Burgers are sub par, at best, but it was the cockroach than ran across the table as we were finishing our meal that really told the tale. Showed waitress, didn't care AT ALL, or discount the ticket.
