Stopped by for dinner early Saturday evening. You select your table and there was plenty of seating to choose from. Staff were very friendly and attentive with pleasant conversation. Ordered the new smash burger and was very pleased with the selection. Served hot with plenty of food filling the dish. Patrons really seemed to be enjoying themselves as we were. Not overly loud ambiance but enjoyable background music on speakers. Only drawback was a period where a strong odor of weed was present in the dining area, not real appetizing. I still recommend giving the restaurant a try, it's a nice place with a cozy home town feel. read more

I have no idea why this East End has such low ratings. Maybe there are a bunch of haters out there. We have never had a bad meal in all the times we've been here. The beer is always cold. The food is always on point. Plus, it has a "dive bar" atmosphere that works. The menu has a nice variety and I haven't ever been disappointed in whatever I've ordered. This visit, I ordered the hot dog sliders; 3 mini Nathan's hot dogs with grilled onions and beer cheese. I also got a bowl of chili and made my own chili dogs. Very good. Definitely 5 stars for East End. read more

It took almost an hour to get our food and then the food was not hot. I would avoid this place. Last time the service was not quite this bad but wasn't good either. The place is only about 20% full too. read more

My friend and I decided to tried East End Grill on March 11th, 2024. When we walked in the server told us to sit anywhere we like. Once we sit down there was a strange smell just for a moment. When we was waiting for our food my friend noticed something in the salt. We saw this yellow maybe worm looking thing, so we didn't use the salt. When our food arrived we kinda forgot about the salt situation. I got the Chicken Breakfast Club and my friend got the Chicken and Fresh Mozzarella with Linguine. She likes the linguine, but there was some burnt part of the chicken. I really like the Chicken Breakfast Club the bacon, fried egg, and cheese with the perfectly seasoned chicken blend so well together. The fries was also okay. read more

The food is outstanding and the menu has a lot of great selections at decent prices. We always enjoy the meal.

I have eaten here for years, new items on a already classic menu. Service and atmosphere is always inviting. Find myself at this establishment often. Hope to see you there. read more

East End Grill was very good! I got a Grilled Chicken Salad. So much meat & the lettuce was fresh & light! Loved the vinegarette dressing! The restaurant was busy but not noisy! Waitress was very accommodating. My drink never went dry! lol. The place had a 'laid back' feel about it. Very comfortable. I'll got back! Easy!! read more

Food is good. Service is prompt and friendly. Note that if you ask for a To-Go box, they charge a $6.25 service fee. Ouch. read more

Neighborhood bar & grill with an extensive menu and the food is excellent, portions are huge, and key lime pie is authentic. Service has been fantastic every time I've been here. Also, they have free Texas Hold'em Poker here on Monday nights @6:30 with the River Rat Rounders! Always a fun time!! read more

East End is a great dive bar. Food is great. Salads are good too. This has been a staple in our family for years. It can get rowdy on Sundays during football season. Noticed a picture of the salt with what they thought was a worm. It's RICE. I don't know the reasoning behind it but I've seen it done at other restaurants. read more

I ordered takeout yesterday and my order was $38 and I'm sitting in bed. I get a notification from Cash app that your order has been updated to $49 and some change. I left a cash tip because I understand fast food can be hard but I feel like it's wrong to give yourself extra tip even though I didn't have nothing but two words with you by giving my name I'll call multiple times they kept hanging up but I will be showing up tomorrow to see if I get a for my $11 is not that they took the $11. It was the principal because I already left a cash tip. He wanted to be greedy I feel highly disrespected and it was only my worst first time going. I know there his name is Teddy. He comes to my job all the time and he's the only friendly person I met there so far. read more

I was aggressively attacked at the door by the bartender because my mask wasn't in place yet. I felt like the bartender thought he was in a position of power when in reality he was nothing more than extremely obnoxious. The food was however good enough to earn them another star. Our waitress was spot on as well. At the end of the day you only get one chance to make a first impression and in this instance it was total failure. read more

It has been a long time since I have eaten here. I previously ate during lunch break and had wings to go. This time, I came in with a friend visiting from out of town. We had fried mushrooms and ravioli, and he ordered fish plate. Between the mushrooms and fish and fries, they were greasy; we did not enjoy any of it. We both had to alcoholic beverages, and we headed home. Based on the food, it is not a preferred place to go. This place may be great for others, but it for me. read more

18% surcharge on all orders Owner basically is a thief and stole his server's tips .. Cheese steaks don't use lettuce and tomato! It's onions and peppers read a recipe book! Chilli looked like dog food Burgers do not come with fries Ran out of silverware Salads should be served in a bowl,just sayin Place is overpriced... read more

I've been here for lunch three times now I think, and they have failed all three times to fill me up. I wanted more food each time. The country fried steak is obviously frozen, but still pretty good. I like the crab dip. The roast beef was my favorite thing here. Nice patio. The special was good. Hamburger steak, mashed potatoes, and fried okra. It was hot and served quick. The hamburger steak was a little small. My friend and I each completed our meal and wanted a little more to eat but were too cheap to pay for more food. I'm not complaining too much about the portion size though, because for $7.95 we got our money's worth and it was hot and delicious. This establishment does not support our American rights that so many mothers sacrificed their sons for, in order for us to retain so many freedoms. Firearms are prohibited. read more

Walked in. Waitress came up to us about 5 minutes after we got there and looked pissed off. It wasn't crowded. We ordered chicken fingers and a chicken salad sandwich. It took 45 minutes to get the food. 2 other couples were in there, ordered, ate and left before we got our food. Got our food asked for bbq sauce. Never came. Had to ask again for that and a refill. Asked for the ticket. Never came. Asked again she rolled her eyes and still never came. Had to get up and ask her for the ticket AND she tipped herself as a "service charge." Have been going here for MANY MANY years and if I ever walk in there and see her again, I will leave. Also I have NEVER written a bad review on any restaurant ever. I have worked in the industry and understand people have crap days but when it is JUST us with the issues....its on you. read more

Ordered to go. The patty melt, Reuben and stuffed potato were all delicious! Every server was in there hustling. Haven't been here in a few years but I'll definitely be back! read more

So I just got finished with a "closing". Which mean in Realtor lingo "I am going to get a check". I was so hungry. I stepped into East End Grill. Had a Crosstown Brewery beer because I am Memphis. But I'm so HUNGRY. For real hungry. Got the burger. It's good. Not the best I ever had. (Check out Roxie's) but it's so much better than fast food. And hey, you can't get a beer at Burger King!!! You only get 21 eating opportunities to eat each week. Don't waste it on Fast food. This is a good spot. Try it. Or don't. I really don't care. They don't give me a discount because I'm pretty or because you read my post. read more

East End Grill - Burger is good - Burgers Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

I went here recently with a group of friends. I debated posting this but it is still disgusting me. Waitstaff is so obviously beyond strung out on God knows what. Our server could barely keep her eyes open while talking to us. The appetizers were good but sandwiches were lackluster. It really rubbed me the wrong way that the straws come unwrapped. No one wants a waitress who's high touching the things you put in your mouth. Absolutely disgusting. Will never go back. read more

The customer service was horrible. I called to see what time did they close because the previous day they close early due to management and a young man answered the phone. It was very rude and hung up in my face because I try to clarify what time they close that was before I wouldn't even go just based off customer service over the phone read more

Good food, prompt service, drinks were on point, and a nice atmosphere. I will be returning more often.

20 year veteran of the service industry here: This was the absolute worst service I have ever recieved. The "manager"(maybe 19 yrs old) came over to talk down to us when he was clearly in the wrong. They automatically charged an 18% gratuity charge as a 2 party table. The food was cold and horrible. The menu is redundant and unappetizing. I came here hoping for the great food I used to eat here and was so disappointed. DO NOT EAT HERE. AND THEIR BAR SUCKS. Edited: I feel it's important to mention I worked at this restaurant and this exact location for MANY years. It used to be the best place. Truly. It sucks now. I hope Christian doesn't still own it but if he does... shame on him. read more

It is saddening when a company clearly have hours showing that they are open but they never answer the phone or they pick it up and hang up all because they clearly dont want to take orders. I have been before and I absolutely love the food but the service has changed tremendously! 1 star because I have to post at least that but they don't even deserve it! read more

At first me and my buddies of mine was about to visit Huey's but it was a bit far so we look up something close by and open late.... we found this one restaurant at the bottom of the page. When we visit this restaurant, the place is pretty much dead, very slow. Our server was "alright" ... he look like one them people ... nice on the outside but rotten on the inside... properly hated his job. idk. Ordered some catfish platter, my bud got some chicken alfredo ( they charged 5$ additional for adding shrimp)... they only gave him 2 (two) yes two shrimps for the price of 5$... that's much worse than Subway!!! and he didn't even get a foot long!! he complained, they bought him 4 Extras shrimps in a small cup and drop the price down to 2$ instead of 5$. The food here is "ok" ... Just "ok' Nothing is special about his place unless you are single, recently divorced, got caught cheating, or Mc Donald somehow refuse your service... then this is the right place for you to come and spend your lonely night here!!! They open til' 3AM now!! Don't for get if you come after 6pm they will charge you a gratuity of 18% ( posted every corner even next to the TV somehow I've miss all of them... i'm legally blind ... P.O.P. hold it down!!) not the best thing when your food is bad and your service isn't good either. With that kind of service I guess they have to add the 18%... But it's alright. I would rather go to Huey's... good music and good vibe. Lesson for today ... not to visit a bar where it look like "last man on earth" I would LOVE to give a shout out to my guy "Justin Bieber" who's a manager here. Big fan of you and your single dad outfit. I apologized for asking who you were, didn't mean to offended you and hurt your feeling. Mom should've taught you better. Be tough my guy!!! Much Love you J.B. read more

I'm used to be a regular at this bar and grill, brought kids here before dinner rush hit, hit this place up after work....I'm on a lunch break WASNT super busy and it took almost 30 mins to get even my order taken for food. Got my beer but wasn't even asked if I wanted food...I used to LOVE this place. Was ALWAYS my go to....I hate this. But unless cliff is running the bar or talking to people you really don't feel all that welcomed anymore..I don't know what has changed but I'll be sticking with tavern 018 from now on. My 1 lunch break turned into 2 1/2 hours.....so glad I wasn't on a time crunch today. read more

East End Grill - Ahi tuna salad !!! Yummy - Burgers Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

I'm an open-minded bar goer to say the least but this was not my scene. Not my kind of crowd, food is nothing special, and the place smells like cigarette smoke from smokers on the patio. Came to play trivia and the trivia host was a jerk. read more

This is a great little neighborhood bar and grill with everything you'd expect in such an establishment. In other words, lots of cold beer. Actually, the food is pretty good here as well. I used to live in the Bartlett area, and this was one of my regular hangouts, mostly for the beer and the nice patio, but also for something else: The Fried Cheese Balls. I could eat baskets of those things. They make a darn good burger too. read more

good food and good service awesome vibes. came with friends on a sunday and it was busy but we were served in a timely manner

It's a good place family owned and always a good atmosphee!! So come on in to the local low key gem

if you're hungry starve. passed by and decided to stop in and it was a waste. i walked in and their was staff but they just looked at us but no one really acknowledged us until we talked first at the bar - the bartender is friendly and attentive so i left her a good tip but fast food is better tbh. just get your drink and go. i ordered some sort of pasta and it was really just prego sauce with garlic bread but not in a good way lol the atmosphere is all older white people if you're into that so have fun read more

East End, I F*** with y'all! BBW Nachos and Spicy Crawfish Dip, always! Only complaint is to the customers that attempt to sing on karaoke night, Ha! read more

East End Grill's neon sign is easily recognizable by locals. Its long-standing reputation for good food, drink, & a casual vibe stands out. All tables on the shaded Patio in front were full. Lunch regulars strolled in & headed for their usual tables. "Choose your seat" is a policy that works well here. Music played @ medium volume. Charbroiled Fish Sandwich ($8.75) ~ Red Snapper on a Hoagie Bun with Lettuce Tomato & Tartar Sauce. It was as good as I remember it @ the original Winchester location. I asked that it also be Blackened, & it was delicious. East End has a good after-work crowd & does a huge amount of late night business. read more

My girlfriend and I couldn't be happier with the food, drink, and excellent service here. By far, the best service we have had in Memphis.

Stopped by to p/u wings. They charge an 18% surcharge and a .50 take out fee. Haven't eaten food yet but will never come back.

The chicken mozzarella angel hair pasta is to die for! I only didn't give five stars because they were very packed and nobody was wearing a mask. Our waiter was wearing one and another person I saw working there had one on but wasn't wearing it over her nose. With the pandemic I did not feel comfortable being here, but the food was great! read more

I went here to hang out with my son. It was around 2am when we left. They close at 3 am and the kitchen is closed at 2am. I guess it's drinking and finishing up your food until 3am. I had a great waiter named Noah. He was very attentive to all the tables and made constant eye contact. Now here is the problem. I called the store to tell them that I did not look at my food before I left. I assumed everything was going to be good. Why did I do that ? (Bad mistake ) I Asked for wings but not hotwings and I asked Noah could they put very little sauce on the wings. He said he'd go tell them now. My son had orders cajun strips which were covered in spicy sauce that he could barely eat it. He managed to eat. That is why I didn't want wings to come out overly heated in spice. Acid reflux does not tolerate spices well. I called the store today and I asked to speak to a manager. I told him that I had purchased food that is not good and the chicken has a lot of feathers on it. I asked if I could get my food replaced. I was very nice and professional. I didn't have an attitude and I was very calm. So after I told the man about the feathers on the chicken and he immediately said We don't have feathers on our chicken. It's probably bone fragments. I told him sir I have been eating chicken a long time and I know feathers when I see one. I just want to come and get my chicken made over. There are feathers on the chicken and I am not trying to argue I just want them replaced. I told him my server was Noah. He said yes I do have a Noah. I said okay so what do I do about my chicken and plus it doesn't even have any sauce on it. I work too so I have not been able to bring it back Monday. He said when did you come and I told him when I came and that I work too so I wasn't able to bring it back. He said well we our chicken does not have feathers on it. I said I am not going to argue with you. I know feathers when I see feathers. I asked to speak to the GM OR DM or get their phone numbers. He told me he is the General Manager. I asked his name and he said Jim. Well I told him everybody has a boss and I want to speak with his boss. He told me that his boss was out of town. He said I need to go to the website and email his boss. Really !!! So now I am mad and I told him I am going to put my husband on speaker because he used to work in the meat department. The man ignored me for about 49 seconds as I called for him asking are you still there. Then he said okay there are no feathers on our chicken. My husband told him there are at least 7 feathers on each chicken wing. My husband said Sir it must have been a bad batch. The man JIM Never addressed either of us as SIR OR MAAM. HE DID NOT RESPECT US. (It obviously must have not been cleaned or plucked good.) My husband is on the phone asking what can he do for his wife. I told him that he was a RACIST and he is very BIAS because had I been a white woman he would have asked me or told me to bring the chicken in and he would look at it and remake it. Why did he need to put me through all of this? I do not gamble but I bet my last dollar on this one. So I do not care if the cook is black. They were black in slave days so that means nothing to me. I am not about to beg someone to treat me fair after I spent almost $50 at this place and I tipped the server $12.00. So I WILL NEVER EVER EVER EVER EAT HERE AGAIN!!!! I like the one on Winchester and Hacks Crossing anyways. I just went to this one because it is close to me in Canada Road. I was skeptical about going here but tried to give them a try. So I am out of a lot of money for this food! And it is sad that people are still racist. To me when I am nice to you and you do not treat me with respect and you professionally argue with me over and over and over and over again instead of treating me like a guest then you are either a racist or the biggest idiot ever!!! I am saying he is C all of the above. I do not see a reason why my husband and I need to beg a person to remake our food. I refuse to. Then had the nerve to tell my husband thatI need to email his boss by going to the website after he asked his politely what can he do about my wife's food. I won't be doing that!!! NEVER EVER !!!! Like I said I am not racist but I know when people are doing it to me. It has happened to me umpteen times. I do not carry that around with me or in my heart but I know racist and bias actions when I see it. So tell me are these bone fragments or feathers because I am too black, dumb, stupid, and ignorant and do not know what feathers look like. I am returning these to sender. I will be leaving these at the bar. This is sad and I am making a special trip to take these back for them to look at and learn " How to spot a feather for dummies " read more

I have been coming to this location for years. Pre covid the service was wonderful. Every time the servers were punctual and customer service oriented. I have brought friends and family here many times. Love the menu and pricing. Over all this is a good establishment. Sadly tonight our experience was sub par due to the server. She was curt and dismissive when we asked for food or drink items. The cherry on top was when our party was leaving after paying checks with automatic gratuity plus a little extra the server stated "yeah whatever" when we said thank you for serving us. Sub par for this favorite dive. read more

Food is pretty good. Servers are nice. The 18% service charge is very questionable. It seems that if they recognize you as a regular they don't charge you the service charge. We've been charged the service charge maybe 10% of the time. It kind of seems like it's left at the discretion of the server whether or not to add it, so I have no idea who actually gets it. read more

Phewww where do I even start?! First of all- impeccable service ALWAYS! The food is great and the menu is huge. Perfect for game day or if you just want a good meal with drink options. They are strict on carding everyone which, in my opinion, shows they care about their reputation and morale. Dogs allowed on the patio. Yes, both locations have patios read more
