The Folk’s Folly story began in 1977 with unconventional origins, as the best stories often do.Native son Humphrey Folk, Jr. was a prominent and shrewd developer, whose hard work carried him all over the country, cultivating his sincere appreciation of food and fine wine.Undaunted by a complete lack of restaurant or culinary experience, he decided to convert a quaint and intimate house into a small eatery. His peers offered little encouragement, so he added the word “folly” to his own name, and Memphis’ Original Prime Steak House was born.With only a gentleman's handshake to signify agreement, Humphrey Folk welcomed famed Memphis restaurateur Thomas Boggs as managing partner of Folk's Folly in 2003.This partnership built the bridge to the next generation and Folk's Folly Prime Steak House remains a family affair.*PLEASE NOTE: ALL REQUESTS FOR PRIVATE DINING MUST BE MADE BY CONTACTING THE RESTAURANT DIRECTLY AT901-762-8200

I went there today (Wednesday) for the express purpose of enjoying the Daily Special: Short Ribs. One of my favs at Char. As always, delicious and enough beef to carry some home. I had to have my favorite dessert there….pecan pie. Large piece served warm with vanilla ice cream. Perfect lunch coupled with good service. My friend also ordered the Short Ribs….her first time to have this dish, and she was pleased.

Ronnie Grisanti’s is consistently excellent. One problem, the veal piccata is so good, I order it every time. My wife is the same way with the eggplant Parmesan.

We had reservations for two at 6:30 pm and we out the door, having finished our meal by 7:17 pm. The fastest service in a fine dining restaurant I have ever experienced. They were moderately busy, as well. The food was superb and the staff were courteous and friendly. I would definitely recommend!
