Thid is the time that we have been there. I know that it is usually a slowly timed restaurant, but in the past the service was impeccable. This visit we had to ask twice for four items: refills, extra olive oil, extra spoon for dessert and coffee The oyster appetizer was very average, as well as the fried green tomatoes. As for the entrees, my filet was over cooked. My husband has the lamb and that was good. My coconut pie was bland and crust was soggy, the bread pudding was less than desirable Compared to our other visits, it was very disappointing.
I had heard of this restaurant for several years. We finally managed to have lunch there recently and were totally satisfied with every aspect of our dining experience. I would further say that it may be our favorite restaurant in the entire city now. Every dish that was brought to our table was very warm and hot which seems to be missing from me restaurants these days when they offer a ride at your table cool to lukewarm.
The food, as always, was DIVINE. The chicken crepes are literally to die for. Service was top notch. The gulf shrimp dish was delicious, but the serving size of fish and lobster on top seemed smaller than usual. Also, the bench seating along the outside wall is uncomfortable. Very. It seems like the springs are busted. I had to sit on my jacket to make it bearable.
Fantastic V-Day dinner! We chose the four-course fixed menu for per which was an outstanding value. Highlights included oyster trio and duck crepes. Added touch: diners were given a chocolate covered strawberry from local candy maker Dinsthuls as a parting favor. Felecia, as always, a lovely hostess. Thanks for a memorable evening!

We had fantastic food and impeccable service. I especially enjoyed the mocktail, the fried oysters (served on stone-ground grits that were to die for), beet salad and the gulf fish. Tried this place out of pure chance on a random Wednesday night with my colleagues and was truly amazed. A gem.
It saddens me to write a poor review of a restaurant that has had such a long standing good reputation in Memphis, but it was a very disappointing meal. Only the dessert was good enough to finish. My husband who has never eaten a ribeye he didnât love, did not want to finish his.
of us in the party and every person said it was the best meal they had ever eaten. World travelers in the group. We did the tasting however the menu has numerous options. I have eaten there several times and spend to per meal. Something for almost everyone. Highly recommend.
This was one of the best dinner experiences Iâve ever had. The atmosphere in the restaurant is fantastic. Felicia was such an active part of the evening and the food was unbelievably delicious!

Food was good. Different kind of menu. Rib appetizer was amazing. Grouper was good but not the wow I was hoping for. Service was excellent
As always the food was great, but the service level was lacking. Also, our side dishes came out about minutes after our meal.
