They got the two…read moreof us in within 10 minutes and took our order within another 10, and then the food was there in another 10. Super quick for the Sunday rush! The food and coffee was so delicious. I wouldn't say I'm a food snob, but I'm particular about breakfast foods, and this made me very happy. We each ordered a coffee and the bacon potatoes to share. I ordered the Juniper Benedict and my friend ordered the loaded biscuits and gravy. The bacon potatoes were cooked perfectly, soft and slightly crunchy with plenty of cheese and bacon. The eggs in my eggs Benedict were cooked perfectly and they used a regular house-made biscuit that soaked up the egg yolks perfectly. The restaurant was pretty big, but the ambiance felt like a small-town diner. The staff was super kind and attentive, too. The cost is par for the course for a nice diner in a big city. TLDR: Not a bad word to say about this place.

We made a stopover here on our way back to Nashville. Our group wanted to stopover in Arkansas and…read morethis seemed like the spot to do it! It's a quintessential down home diner with a great food selection and really nice folks running the place. This was like a down home, local Dennys that a people obviously enjoyed as the place was packed on a Sunday morning. Our group had everything from omelettes to cheese grits, skillets to pancakes, and some darn good coffee! The service was quick, our waitress was very friendly and took great care of us. Being from the west coast, we figured 6 of us would be in the $125 range with tip. The whole meal was something like $80 with tip, coffee and a plenty to snack on! They even gave us coffees to go. Legit, every town should have a spot like this!

Plenty of indoor seating including the bar area. There are a few tables for outdoor seating as well. Plenty of parking. Hostess seated me. The menu was front and back simple with breakfast items and small section for lunch. Breakfast is their main menu meal. I had coffee and ordered the Belgian waffle that came with fruit and whip topping. The coffee was piping hot anso delicious you can drink it straight. The waffle looked good just was not hot and skimpy on the fruit and whipped topping. It had a nice crispy taste and flavor and was really good just not hot when it arrived. Caroline was my waitress and she had such a pleasant smile and disposition. A very personal person. The way she took care of her customers you could tell she enjoyed her job. She brought me my bill and there was a Big Bad Breakfast postcard attached. Nice touch. Excellent service. I got a coffee to go and it was hot and freshly brewed. The tables were cleaned after each customer, sprayed down, chairs pushed in , tables straightened and fresh silverware placed. Check the time before you go but this is a great place to eat.

Our food arrived in a timely manner. Everything was fresh and hot. The food was flavorful but nothing was overbearing. My dining partner and I could not find a single negative in either meal! A little something to be aware of... we were automatically charged a gratuity of 18% at a 2 person table. Our server definitely earned this but I like having the option of choosing my own gratuity.

We walked in and felt the love. The hostess without us saying a word said I saw y'all coming in and…read moreI'm getting this table ready for you. Impressed already. The menu is a QR code. I like that better than a greasy menu. The restaurant is well decorated and seating was comfortable. The restroom was clean and smelled fresh. I got the chicken and waffles. I don't remember the name the had for it. But it was flavorful and delicious. My husband had the pancakes and a side of chicken sausage. He doesn't eat pork so we love to go to a place with good alternatives. Our waitress was sweet as pie. I would definitely add this to the places I will tell my friends about.

Sugar grits in right off Beale in downtown Memphis…read more I chose this place as it was close to my hotel. Upon entering I was impressed with their lighting and overall ambiance of the restaurant. The food menu is what you would expect and they offer a lot of grits plates served with fish and other proteins. The food was tasty! Their biscuits are huge! Only reason for three stars was very slow service and automatic gratuity was added. I always tip above 20 percent but not being told it was included already caught me off guard.

I just love the way this place looks.

We were greeted immediately and sat right away. Our server was very nice and attentive. The food was pretty good. I'd like to come back and try other sandwiches. I had the patty melt and it had a lot of flavor. The sauce in it is pretty good. I wasn't a fan of the seasoning on the fries. They were cooked well, but pretty salty and overwhelming. They had like a chili lime taste. Next time I'll omit the seasoning. My oldest son had the New York chopped cheese. He liked it, but I tried it and preferred the patty melt flavors over that one. I'll definitely have to get some breakfast items next time because the pancake and cheesy eggs were amazing for being so simple. The bacon was over cooked. All in all, we'll be back to try more of the menu.

The restaurant has a unique "islandish" charm that was nice getaway from the weather outside. We ordered the Sopapillas to start our breakfast. Sopapillas are a delicious deep fried puff pastry. They combined perfectly with the Mexican chocolate sauce. I ordered the Classic Breakfast Plate. It included eggs, hash browns, bacon and toast, and I thought it was a very nice way to start our day before we started driving to Nashville.

You also can't call ahead to find out if it's one of those days because the line states the number has changed but the new number is unknown... However, the wings are amazing. Perfectly seasoned! The Mac & cheese is solid as well. The greens were too sweet & not savory. I could've gone without. The cheesecake is always available, but the flavors vary per day & by availability - Just like when he was at cheesecake corner. Catch him if you can!

The syrup that was for it made it taste a little better. The wings had a really good flavor, season very well. But the pecan praline tenders and waffles was not the best.

Great for breakfast or lunch. Good food and baked goods. Great coffee…read more Friendly staff. The ambiance of the inside is fine. Seating outside on the sidewalk and deck can be a little dirty and trashy feeling and could use more frequent maintenance. Please don't make us sit at a table with trash under the table or old food stuck to the table top. If you park in CE's parking lot and you see all the trash on the ground and weeds growing around the parking lot, you might immediately think that the management at this restaurant doesn't care. And... if they don't care about how the place looks upon this first impression walking into the restaurant, what else do they not care about? Another question... Are waitresses trained to ask the customers "how was your food?" or "is your food okay?". Would that be inviting trouble? In any case that didn't happen when I was there.

Brunch at Automatic Slim's delivered where it matters most--service, atmosphere, food, and drinks…read morewere all on point. The chicken and waffles were well-executed, with a crispy, seasoned coating and soft waffles that held up nicely. The potatoes were cooked through with good texture and flavor, and the biscuit was warm, buttery, and clearly made with care. The fish dish was also a standout--well-seasoned with a clean sear, paired nicely with creamy grits and greens that added balance. The drinks complemented the meal well--refreshing, properly mixed, and presented nicely. Now, the only miss: the pancakes (not pictured). They were returned due to being extremely thin and lacking flavor. That was a noticeable gap compared to the rest of the menu, which otherwise showed strong execution. Overall, this was still a solid brunch experience, and I would definitely return. With a small adjustment to the pancakes, this place easily holds its reputation.

We are visitors from California and have come to Memphis twice. When we come back here again, we will definitely come here.
