Flight is a must when visiting Memphis. Have you ever gone to a restaurant and couldn’t decide between two or three dishes..well this is your place. You don’t have to decide…just pick a flight of seafood, fish or game..flights of appetizers, desserts and of course wine. Great service and the food is terrific!

We had a wonderful experience. Our server was excellent. She was very friendly and attentive. She made excellent suggestions. Our meal was awesome. The filet was cooked perfectly. The shrimp and grits were excellent. The Cajun pasta was flavorful and delicious. The Cajun shrimp with Abita beer bread was incredible. We finished up with bread pudding and creme brulee. Both were very good. Highly recommend this restaurant.

We always enjoy The Beauty Shop, but last night was perfection! We split the grilled fruit, which was warm and delicious. Then we both enjoyed the Cod special--it was spectacular! All of this was paired with excellent service. The Beauty Shop is a Memphis gem!

If you are going to Memphis, do you definitely need to visit B.B. King’s restaurant. We were there on a Friday evening around 5 PM and were able to catch the band Memphis Jones. They were outstanding!! We shared a plate of nachos with pork and had a couple cold beverages, and it couldn’t have been any better.
