Best Authentic Restaurants in Midtown / Cooper

12/20/24 me and my girlfriends had our annual Christmas gathering and we choose to have a dinner setting this year and Itta Bena was on my TOP list to try something different with the ambience. The food was AMAZING!!! It was so good and quality worth. I had the stuff shrimp for appetizer and my entree was the Tomahawk Pork Chop with sweet potatoes and brussels sprout and it was soooo good and plenty. I also had a glass of Merlot with Beringer being the maker and it was good as well. WE tried the short ribs, chicken and lamb chops also and they were pleasantly pleased as well. Definitely will be going back and our server i think her name "Jackie"? she was fantastic....

Highly recommend. The food is always excellent and from the minute you enter with the person greeting you, until you leave, they always treat you like you are their top customer. Oh, and the prices are very reasonable.

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.

Loved everything about BB King’s! The reservation process was easy and they greeted us with a smile, my mother in law had a walker and the assisted her getting to our table. Our server Rachel and her shadow Mya were so nice and helpful. The food was incredible!! Best Memphis pulled pork I’ve ever had. The portions were just right, not huge. The brownie sundae was awesome!! The music from the band was terrific! Great addition to the meal and created a very memorable experience. If your a tourist in Memphis, this is a great place to to go get a bit of Southern hospitality!

It is a rare occasion to have great service these days. Curfew far exceeded my expectations. The staff was so gracious and friendly. I made reservations here for a business meeting on a Friday morning, and it was the perfect location. The noise level was low, the waiter was great, and the manager as well as the chef stopped by our table to make sure everything was to our liking. THIS is how you do customer service. I left a 40percent tip, and I’ve already scheduled another business meeting for this location next week. Bravo to the Curfew staff. Please keep it up!! 🙏🏾
