    This is the new spot for seafood lovers! If your into seafood bags that comes with all of the works, good drinks, and a chill vibe this is the place to be! Each time I go the service is always great no matter how busy they are. I've gone during the week on a slow day and on Friday night when it's packed to capacity. The service is consistent. The servers are friendly and very attentive. The food is great! Each time I have visited, I got the same thing...the crab bag with shrimp, sausages, eggs, potatoes, and corn. The sauce I get is the Great Hunter special sauce spicy! It's always so good and the price point is great. They give you a lot of food. I'm always able to take some home. The drinks are just as good. The bartender takes pride in making drinks. Just an FYI, they do play music and have a DV on Fridays so if noise level is an issue for you don't go on those days.

    Bone-dry, overcooked catfish.

    Hushpuppies are full of sugar. The Heinz ketchup bottle does NOT have Heinz ketchup. It's too sweet. The catfish is overcooked and tastes like cardboard. The shrimp is good, however.

    I think they can accommodate a large group with advance notice.

    The food was really good. The service was great. For me personally, the sound system was not designed for the loud vibrating base of the music, so it was just not my personal preference. The people were so nice, courteous, and attentive. The food was great. I would definitely make a to-go order.

    I will give this place a 4.8/5. Food was delicious. They have fried seafood rice and it's amazing. Ask for the Great Hunter sauce for this dish. The food was smoking hot. We had a sausage boil and it was on point. I ordered the Crab cakes. It comes with French fries. Their crab cakes remind me of salmon croquettes from the texture and look. I highly recommend Amber as the server and I'll be back. They also include an 15% on all checks. Most restaurants are doing this.

    Perfectly cooked king crab, shrimp, blue crab, with corn and potatoes included in the bag. I was impressed with the items on the table that made the experience pleasant, they had gloves, bibs, and an entire pack of baby wipes on the table for cleaning up. The waitress was attentive and helpful with helping out. We will gladly return!

    Two clusters, potato, shrimp, corn and lobster tail
    Monica W.

    First off, the place is huge and clean! The hostess was welcoming with a smile and the waitress Ambra I think was wonderful. We dined on a Sunday at 1:30 and there was no crowd. We were a party of 8. We placed our order and the food came out in a timely manner as I think we all ordered the special for that day. Since the food comes in a bag I don't have a really good picture of it however the food was descent. My bag came with lobster tail, bunch of shrimp, 2 clusters, corn and potato and I added sausage. I also had a strawberry lemon drop and had to add a shot. The drink was way too sweet. Someone ordered a lemon drop and it was bitter and she added a shot as well. The shrimp were large and the lobster was again descent. Crablegs are too much work so I never get the benefit of eating them before just giving up but it came with the bag. Total cost $90. Would I go again, no but you should definitely try them. My crew said it was really good. Footnote, I don't care for seafood so that may be why I didn't love it but it was descent and seemed fresh. Corn was over cooked but I like corn so I didn't care. I was told the sausage was andouille but it wasn't and that was disappointing. I also ordered onion rings, twice! First batch were cold and second batch wasn't hot out the grease and still lukewarm at beat and it didn't have onion no where in there and I bit most of them just to see. They tasted old but I came for the seafood, right?

    Second ketchup bottle.

    I dined here three times in the last month. That is more than enough time to give a fair and honest assessment of what the overall dining experience is like. On all three visits, there was an unusually large amount of flies flying around the dining room and near the windows by the booths. On the first visit, that was probably the result of the second set of doors at the entrance being left open. On the third visit, although the doors were closed at the entrance, it was more of the same with the amount of flies flying around the booth. Swatting away flies should not be a normal part of someone's dining experience. On all three visits, I noticed that the ketchup bottles had old, dated and faded labels on the bottles. That was a clear sign that the bottles are not being replaced. They are being refilled. On My most recent visit, I attempted to clean the first bottle but gave up because it was too dirty and shouldn't have been used in the first place. After asking for and receiving the second bottle, I opened the top to find that the ketchup under the lid was slightly pink in color. That was possibly the result of water somehow getting into the bottle and turning the red ketchup a lighter color. At that point, I decided to look a little closer to determine if this should or would be my last time dining here. I then removed the top from the bottle and what I found was more disturbing than the flies. I clearly have no idea how long it took for that to turn into what it is. It's also clear that the old ketchup bottles are not being cleaned prior to refilling. If You are not going to clean them then they should be thrown away. It is unfortunate that this is what is being given to people to use. If two ketchup bottles had to be replaced in one visit, I wonder what else may be lurking around that have not been discovered yet. It is the responsibility of Managers to spot check and follow up with their employees to prevent things like this from taking place. That is obviously not happening. I've been more than fair in giving this place three tries. For obvious reasons, this will be My last time dining here and I will be moving on.

    Epic boils ! We had the shrimp headless boil and it was worth every penny. Super reasonable price, we came during the week off hours so we avoided the wait. 5 stars

    If I were to really put the time and effort into understanding and then describing my favorite…read morekinds of places to eat it would tell a story, and that story would likely end up sounding like The Second Line feels to me. I feel like this place embodies the essence of my inner peace somehow. It was born as a overflow bar for Iris from the lore I hear. To me, as I see it, this place became Chef Kelly's escape to reality as far as food, atmosphere, and service are concerned. I think this place presents his personality in his relaxed more chill version. If you have ever been to Iris, specifically, when it was next door, you would understand what I mean. When it was the tiny place it had some kind of pretentiousness to it that just turned me off. I only ate there once. It would take weeks to get a reservation before he moved it and the constant limelight had to be a lot of pressure. This place though.... I could come here three times a week no issue. In fact, I actually wish that I could eat here three days a week. Second Line is moving soon. They are going back to being next door to Iris in the newer Laurelwood location. In some ways I wonder if Chef needs that jovial comfort of a place next to Iris to keep him grounded. I do hope the charm of this is somehow transferred, but looking out the windows into Cooper the last time I was here Dec '25, just will not be a possibility in that shopping center it's headed to. That will be lost. He's a great guy! Hell of a Chef! World class employer! Tremendous philanthropist! A leader in the City of Memphis! Please go support him in the new location. Now.... All that BS and I ain't said shit about the food and why I like this place so much. If you scroll through my photos you will see almost every dish that has ever been on the menu here. Some are fantastic! All are very good! I have had nothing but great food here for many years! I have only had one bad meal here. Catfish Picante and it is long gone it seems! I wrote a long ass draft I never published (thank god), after that visit. I do believe it was my first time here and I almost didn't return. What a waste that would have been. My favorites now are Sweet Heat Oysters, Chicken Livers with pepper jelly, that lobster knuckle sandwich from waaaay back, spinach Madeline, and of course... the Red Beans and Rice. The desserts are always killer as well. I guess I'll catch you at the new place soon! Love you guys!! '25 - Finale

The food however was honestly meh (in my opinion). I got a creole dish and to be fair my dish looked beautiful. The plating was 10/10 but the taste for me left something to be desired. After eating this dish I questioned if I even like creole sauce because it really just wasn't that good. If this is a preference issue, I honestly don't know. I also thought the charcuterie appetizer had a weird mix of items on it from club crackers, to meat and cheese, and random veggies. Not bad but just kind of a weird mix. My husband ordered the salmon and he said it was good, not the best he's had but it was good. Other friends of ours got the white fish among the many other dishes. I did have a salad with these apples on it which was incredibly yummy. I will say though my dish looked amazing some of the other dishes were not plated well. Not to nitpick but to want to be considered a more upscale restaurant which means charging guest more money than say a local Applebee's then knowing how to appropriately garnish or drizzle sauce to elevate at plate is important (see my picture of the chicken dish). All and all not my favorite restaurant but definitely not the worst!!

    Extremely Disappointing Experience…read more We had a reservation for seven people and were told we would be seated at a table in the bar area. When we were taken to the third level, the staff attempted to seat all seven of us at the bar, which was not what we reserved. After objecting, we were moved to a makeshift table on the second level. These were lightweight outdoor wicker-style tables, unstable and not suitable for indoor dining. The tables moved constantly, glasses nearly tipped over, and there was no room to sit comfortably. Our waitress did her best, but she was clearly overbooked and stretched too thin. Our reservation was at 7:00 PM but not seated until 7:35 PM. We were given only three glasses of water, and the remaining four were not brought until after I finally complained due to the lack of service. Service continued to be extremely slow. We did not receive our food until 8:59 PM. The food itself was also disappointing: Two guests ordered the salmon with scallops, but the dishes arrived without scallops. We were later told they had run out and were given shrimp instead, without prior notice. One guest ordered the lamb chops, which were severely overcooked. Despite a $530 bill, no attempt was made by management to offer restitution or meaningfully address the situation. While we received apologies and told next time I come in to ask for our waitress or the assistant manager and they would make sure it's right, the overall experience--from seating to service to food--was unacceptable. This was the worst 'fine-dining' experience I've ever had and I would not return.
