Best Authentic Restaurants in East-Bartlett / Collierville / Germantown

Thank you for a wonderful New Years Day meal. It was my birthday and I got cheesecake. Thank you for that.

Excellent meal, great food, fair prices. Z is the best waiter, very helpful with suggestions!!! Ravioli is the 💣, bow tie pasta with sausage excellent!! Will be back more frequently, blows a lot of other places away!!!

There was a wait as server had not been confirmed for our table. After few minutes of waiting server approached table to take orders and apologize that no one had checked in with our party.

Was looking for a good Mexican spot while visiting Olive Branch. After seeing the reviews, thought we'd give Mama Rosa a try. Doesn't look like a Mexican spot from the outside. It's in a small shopping center and very bright on the inside. Upon entering, very modern and cute decor. The hostess was super sweet and immediately got us sat. Somehow we didn't get any silverware (just menus) but we were able to ask for it later. Our server was Kira. Friendly, gave wonderful recommendations and constantly checked on us throughout the evening. We decided on two of her food recommendations and then Rosita for cocktails. We also did queso. Our queso actually came out a bit cold and wasn't completely melted but she immediately took it back and it came out hot the next time. Our dishes were amazing! The shrimp were big, fresh and the cheese they use is different than other restaurants. The only thing I'd change is charging guests for chips and salsa and then for queso. We ordered chips and queso (no salsa) so it should have only been one charge. Granted it's only an additional 2 dollars so we didn't mention but was just weird to have two separate charges for that. We would definitely come back as the food was amazing, service was good and the staff was super welcoming!

Of the four people's dishes at our table, the lobster pizza won the prize. The chianti vinaigrette dressing on every salad is bitter. Their special of flounder over parmesan grits was underwhelming. Wine list is good. This is NOT Big John Grisantis on Airways from the 1980s.
