    We are outside. The server was not very good but the food was. It's pub food. Drinks were slow coming. I'd give it another try. Love the location.

    This restaurant misrepresented itself on Open Table. We were in town for a convention and booked a table for six people. However when we got to the restaurant the menu was nowhere near the same as the menu provided to us at the restaurant. The menu provided online on Open Table was extensive and included a large selection of gourmet entrees including a mac and cheese bar. When we arrived at the restaurant the menu was one small page and contained only bar food - onion rings, quesadilla, pimento cheese bites. We asked the server about why the difference and he said they've never had any other menu. We asked our server to verify we had been checked in for our reservation he said the manager on duty had to do it and she was busy - not sure busy with what because the pub was mostly empty during peak dinner hours. After almost 45 min of asking the server multiple times, the manager came over with an iPad and wasn't sure what checkin meant. She showed us what she normally does on Open Table and asked us if that is what we needed - we weren't sure. Then we asked her why the menu in the restaurant was so different from the one on the Open Table app and she said that the mgt changes menus so often and never had a chance to update OT. Misleading to us out-of-towners. We ended up going to a steakhouse down the street for dinner albeit already late in the evening. One shouldn't have to double check a menu by calling a restaurant to verify it actually serves the dishes posted on its menu on the OT page, but in the case of this restaurant you should.

    Such a cool place. They have a really unique rotating menu that blows every other small ball out of the water. Even the brunch items were great. A must visit for any real local Memphian.

    Great service. It is much louder with a much more limited menu than the Overton Square location.

    My husband and I both had the specials and cleaned our plates! The fish tacos were phenomenal. He had the pork which was also delicious. My husband does not care for fish in general and was apprehensive in trying them. He was pleasantly surprised that they did not have a "fishy" taste, but fresh and yummy. I tried one of the drink specials, a Ginger Mule. I loved it - if you like ginger it's a must. We splurged and shared dessert- the blondie. So yummy, we were both full but cleaned our dessert plate too. The wait staff was friendly and provided e cell ent service. We will be going back - great meal!

    Absolutely love the food!!! My two friends and I shared all of our entrees and loved everything. This was my very first introduction to pork belly, of all things! It was very tasty! My seared tuna salad didn't disappoint - as usual it was amazing!
