Apparently the system was down which was a bummer but Jennifer B made our experience wonderful. Her attitude and knowledge and recommendations were the best. Even with the system down I could tell a server or two were stressed out and the teamwork I seen was out of this world. The chef was also great and the food was yummy. Not to mention the atmosphere, it was decorated and the fish tanks are a perfect touch if you have a child like my youngest son. It was so much food I can't wait to eat it late tonight! We will definitely stay in Southaven more often just to visit Akita.

He enjoyed it from the beginning til the end. My older son and I ordered the shrimp and filet with extra rice. FYI door order extra rice, as it's a lot. You will already get two big scoops as is. My husband got the shrimp and chicken and asked for it to be spicy which looked amazing. My little one got lo mein and shared the filet with me. Unfortunately I can't remember our server's name but she was amazing and on top of it when taking care of us. I didn't tell them it was my birthday since we had cake at home, but I did see they will bring you some kind of dessert. Amazing place again with amazing service.

My friend's dad ordered catfish and talked about how good it was. It was fried perfectly. I ordered the small island with broccoli instead of sausage. The season and butter is homemade and needs to be in someone store!!!!!! It was full of flavor and everything was just right. So much so I came back with my brother and son. They enjoyed the food just as much as I did the first time.

My husband and I have been wanting to try this spot out since it has the same name as one we had…read moreback where we lived. It is very different than any crab boil place we been to. You order at the counter and seat yourself. They do supply the tools needed, bibs, gloves, and crackers. Each table has a big bowl which we assumed is for your shells. We ordered the Big Island Gold as it was perfect for the both of us. They were out of sausages so we did ask for extra shrimp. Everything was cooked to perfection, even the potatoes. I'm guessing since it's an order and seat yourself kind of place, they don't really check up on you too often. For the most part this is good spot.

Great food and service! We got the fusion roll, Cajun roll and spicy tuna roll. So good!read more

We dined with our young kids and I wouldn't recommend the kids hibachi. The taste wasn't the greatest. The sushi was okay. We've had better at other places. That filet and lobster meal though was so delicious!! My husband had the crispy duck and I've loved it. We would definitely come back to try other items.

How in the gash darn hell have I not written a review for The Half Shell Memphis?!?!?…read more I've been coming here since birth. Ok. Maybe not that long. Most definitely since I can remember. My parents had the blandest worst taste for food, so I was a depraved child as far as flavor was concerned. We ate at very blah places and my Mom was the pickiest person in the world, but.... She loved this fried shrimp! So we came here often. I grew up in Parkway Village so we were always nearby. Fast forward to my Yelp days. My first CM, Joelle had a part ownership of this place when I first started Yelping. We even had her going away party here when Yelp ruined the Memphis Elite Program with part time CM's for our city. She was part owner and we hung out there so it seemed inappropriate to write a review. Besides, I knew Danny pretty well too and that was also a conflict. Nowadays it's been bought by the folks that turned Forrest Hill Grill around. They have closed the location on Winchester (which I called years ago) and opened up in Germantown on Poplar. I have no idea who these people are so I guess it's time. I have not been to the new one, but I have seen the menu. I do not have any intentions of rushing to try it. Seems as if they butchered the whole dang menu. Anywho.... I still like this one. It's pretty run down, but the food is still good. It's still the original menu with all the treats. They have a freaking Monte Cristo sandwich folks! I know of less than five places left that still serve them. When is the last time you saw a twice baked potato? Here it is!! They still have a changing weekly, "daily special". They still have an intense regular bar business. Good luck getting a seat at the bar at any given time. Best of all they still have those damn tasty fried shrimp! Oh they are so good! The best ever man. The sauces they serve are great. I've been up and down the menu and it's almost always great. Oysters are some of the best charbroiled that there are anywhere in Shelby County. Long live OG Half Shell! Please never change! '25 - 44/111

The Genre is always going to have a customer in me. The parking situation was a little hectic but…read morethat was due to the school graduations happening. Their parking is $5 which isn't bad for downtown. When you walk in, you are welcomed with good music, good vibes and a dreamy blue light that makes any skin look good. (Think Belly, ifkyk). Went for my besties bday party so we were set up in the back in area where they called it the "Garage". It was a very nice space and open up to the outside area too. They did have a bar setup but no bartenders, made drinks in the front. The Food!!!! 10/10 and I will solely keep going for that fried catfish. My whole table had them. 1-2 pieces on catfish each. It's that good. I got some tenders with fries and a side of the spicy honey gold sauce. Best sauce that I had in awhile. Our waitresses Kim & Patrice were phenomenal to us the entire night. Anything that we wanted, we got it. For a Saturday night, they were on point with the service. The Chef also keep checking in on us too and that's something you typically don't see. Going the the bathroom, you can see artwork displayed. The bathroom has mouthwash as well. Perfect for ending the night.

Never again. While…read morethe food itself was good, the service was among the worst I've experienced. We ordered tacos that were brought to the table without plates. After requesting plates, silverware, and napkins, none of those items ever arrived, leaving us to eat without basic utensils or proper place settings. We also ordered water and were told there would be a charge, which was fine--but the water never came. Unfortunately, that was only one of several service issues we encountered throughout our visit. Good food can only go so far when the overall dining experience is this frustrating. Based on the lack of attention to customers and poor follow-through on even the simplest requests, I would not return and cannot recommend this restaurant. Save yourself the disappointment and choose another venue.

Just a casual order and bring your food to the table type of spot. The seafood sauce is pretty good. It has a distinct sweetness to it which I enjoy. Problem was my food wasn't piping hot and the shrimp seems overcooked or old maybe. The texture was more chewy. Out of all the times I've been here this is the first time I felt meh. I'll have to give it a few months before I try again. Seafood is too expensive to chance being dissatisfied any time soon!
