Donzel CouncilOctober 10, 2019I ordered the Bourbon Butter Ribeye with mixed vegetables. It was perfectly cooked and seasoned very well. The atmosphere is trendy, but laid back. Definitely a cool place to go and hang out.Upvote1Downvote- Dan BureauNovember 16, 2013Delicious brunch. Had scallops and grits and then banana fosters French toast. So good! 2.50 bloody marys - good ones at that. Mimosa ok but needs some triple sec with the champagne and oj.Upvote1Downvote
MelissaFebruary 23, 2018The lemon meringue waffles —yum!! Caution! They put little lemon slices on top that were kinda hidden in the meringue. The con was the side of bacon was $3, and I got two sad (but yummy) slices.UpvoteDownvote
Honey MooreOctober 15, 2014Not only do they make the food look pretty but it's delicious too! Top of the list of one of the best places we've eaten. Ask for Joshua! Fabulous and attentive server.UpvoteDownvote

Andrea LeTardApril 4, 2011Best martinis Downtown... Menu is extremely extensive! An atmosphere that is few and far between in downtown Memphis. At least stop in for one drink to get the night started!UpvoteDownvote- Get in before 7pm to enjoy 1/2 price martinis everyday! And $2.50 Mimomas and Bloody Marys every Saturday and Sunday for BRUNCH starting at 10 AM !UpvoteDownvote

Frank SealesSeptember 16, 2012Scallops and grits. I think the grits were better than the scallops.

Pork chop was excellent but sides were raw...not a good value for price.UpvoteDownvote- Pork chop was extremely good but potatoes were raw and more of everything at the pricey nightspot would be in orderUpvoteDownvote
Stick with Bobby, the best bartender with the biggest bottle opener in Memphis. Big tips = big skillz, y'all.Upvote1Downvote
Lindsey ShepardFebruary 14, 2014Food was good but needed something extra like side salad or bread to justify the cost ($25-$30 a pop). Service was good. Drink specials were aiiiight.UpvoteDownvote

Lauren SOctober 20, 2013Skip the brunch. Food was cold, no spice or flavor, eggs completely raw, one dish didn't come with any of the sides/dressings promised, each item came out in 15 min intervals, weird dirty sink in br.UpvoteDownvote
