Suggestions for Dining and Drinking near South Main Historic District, Memphis

Lindsey K. • December 20, 2013The coolest bar I've ever been to. I love that it's a little dive but has so much history. And the burgers are awesome too.

Michael T. • December 12, 2019Beats its sister restaurant Gray Canary as the best place to eat in Memphis. Flavorful cocktails, hearty pasta dishes, and good service make this a dependable spot for a hungry out-of-towner.

Dan B. • May 20, 2012Fish and chips good but a little greasy. Beetle burger really good. Fried okra tasty!

Cherie L. • August 28, 201412 Beers on Draft [mainly local brews]. Several wines by glass [3oz & 6 oz]. Cross-International tapas menu. 3 all day drink specials. Happy Hour Tues-Sat 4-7. Community table for large parties.

Bill C. • June 21, 2016Great place to watch sports, drink cold beer and have a steamed sandwich. Super nice bartender too!

John T. • August 26, 2012Have the potatoes and dip, decent margarita, great mimosa 4 stars

Natasha M. • November 12, 2021Jameson Slushie, Crosstown Chill-o, and Lobster Roll

Harry G. • November 11, 2012If you come at popular dessert times you may have to wait but that's only because the cheesecake is delicious. Perfect date night dessert stop!

Janice P. • October 17, 2011Breakfast that will keep you going through a really long day! I love the country ham but the sweet potato pancakes rock too!

John S. • July 16, 2023Maybe the best breakfast (days) and brunch (weekends only) available in Memphis, hidden inside the Central Station hotel. Upscale decor. Staff is great. Food prices are higher than average but tasty!

Carmen D. • September 13, 2010The oysters are smaller due to the Gulf shore fiasco so you gotta get a dozen to be satisfied...but overall great food!

Sharbour R. • November 30, 2018Some of the best fresh baked pastries! The "Everything" bagel is my favorite!

Pierre • June 17, 2023The avocado toast was very good, with a hint of lemony flavor. But the French toast was fantastic. Crunchy, chewy, soft, sweet and salty. Their sourdough bread is quite a success.

Haylee M. • August 11, 2013The food is amazing. I got the filet stuffed with Gorgonzola cheese and topped with mushrooms. It was cooked to perfection.

Christopher B. • April 23, 2011Try the Calhoun Pork with cheese grits!

Melonee G. • February 1, 2016For a sushi place that calls their bento box a "lunch box" speaks to the lackluster approach to the cuisine. The salmon was the size of a baby's hand. I've had better in an airport. i.e. Gachi @BWI

Alyssa R. • January 4, 2020Great drinks/food and beautiful, but low-key environment.

Ci M. • June 26, 2018The cornbread is delicious! The yams are so good! Black eyed peas are great! Vegetarian friendly! No meat in any of the sides
