- DDebbyMemphis / West Tennessee •15 reviews5.0Dined todayEating at Flight is always a treat. The food is exceptional and the variety is always appealing. It is also our first choice for special occasions. The service is top notch and the location, in the heart of downtown, is fun.More infoFlight Restaurant & Wine BarPrice: Expensive• American• Downtown•4.9
- CCristinaSt. Louis •11 reviews4.0Dined todayWe had a nice dinner the day after Christmas. The menu was enticing but I chose the special - pan-seared mahi-mahi with poblano cream rice and broccolini. It was lovely: very light and delicious (and arrived hot!). My husband chose the seafood orecchiette pasta which should have been called “fish pasta” because there was no seafood (such as shrimp, scallops, shellfish…It had minced salmon and redfish. hmmm … two of the regular entrees!). It was outright bland and boring. The sauce was a creamy tomato with no zest or flavor. They graciously did not charge us for it. The salads (wedge and house) were both excellent. The wine selection limited but adequate. We were grateful for the ambiance and noise level where one could have a conversation. Carla, the waitress was tops!!!More infoMcEwen's on MonroePrice: Moderate• Southern• Downtown•4.9
