Lobster  Pizza so Delicious !!!
JC C.

Dined here after a day trip to the Zoo based on friends recommendations. Greeted well, and had reservations. Was not busy, but booked anyways cause we came in from out of town. No sweat tea, were offered simple syrup since I don't do any of those artificial sweeteners. This would be .5 star deduction, we are in South. (Yes that helped, but not the same) Waitress was pleasant, but had vibe we just couldn't place? She did well, and our service was just better than average, but not over the top. Not anything really wrong, just not sure how to describe our experience. We still tipped well and hoping helper got part of it since she left before we finished, and other did deserts. We started off with Tuscan Butter appetizer. The mixture was good, & the bread was very warm/fresh. Wife ordered Ravioli w/ traditional sauce. She said it was light & filling and just about right portion. M.I.L. ordered Chicken Ravioli since not a red sauce fan. She finished it, & said would order it again. (Picky) I got the Lobster Pizza. (Uploaded a photo as well) This was fabulous and one of the best I've ever had. Normally don't do desserts, but... everything is made in house. So wife got Tiramisu and Millionaire Pie for myself. My M.I.L. will not eat sweets. Both were divine... Over I rate this a 4.5, but Yelp is whole stars only, so they get a 4. Would I come again? Yes, if we we were in the area. (Not locals)

Coffee

Went to have lunch with friends Tuesday. Our food was delicious. I ordered a Miss Mary's l vinaigrette salad with grilled chicken. It was very tasty. I also saved room for the homemade tiramisu. It was very light and I could taste the coffee flavors throughout. The decor is quite nice with a calm and sophisticated ambience. The decorations are simple and classic with nice lamps on the tables. There was a beautifully painted mural of Italy on the wall. Our server was very cordial but had some challenges throughout our lunch. She had our large party as well as another large party. She may have been the only wait staff present for lunch that day. There was another young lady assisting our server from time to time. We had to wait a long time for our checks and food. When we received our checks there was some confusion. She was able to correct all the checks and we did depart soon after. The prices are somewhat comparable to other restaurants in the area. My salad was 17.00 and was a good size. The bathroom was nice and clean. I may return to try other items.

We went for lunch for my Nana's 94th birthday. It was a wonderful ambiance, service was great, and everyone was very happy with their orders. If I go again I will be getting the manicotti or the ravioli :) it is a great place for a special occasion

Chicken Parmesan
Jerald M.

Ok so I wanted authentic 100% real Italian food and found out about this place called Ronnie Grisanti's and it was incredible. The food was excellent the service was perfect and the staff was very friendly even on my birthday they showed love; I was so touched by the way they were so kind to me I tipped but the choices in cocktails and drinks definitely great pastas appetizers even pizza and salad but wish I gotten pizza though maybe next time when I go back in a couple of weeks with a date maybe. My experience overall solid 5 stars I will be returning and yes I highly recommend this place because of you don't like the food than come for the drinks or just to get away from stress or whatever I suggest this is where you want to go.

Very busy when I went but still great service. Loved the ambiance and music playing. I started with a glass of Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand, they also had one from California if you prefer that. Then order the seasoned loaf of bread that is precut in slices for you and served warm. It's called Pane All'aglio. Then I got the ceased salad. They make the dressing in house. It was super yummy! For my main course I ordered the Elfo Special. It had such great flavor! I would recommend the place and everything I ate.

Peppermint Patty Martini
LaShonda H.

Had a very good dinner here on a Tuesday (or Wednesday?) night around the holidays. There is ample parking and they had huge spotlights in the parking lot. So we felt fine parking and walking in. It was pretty empty but a few tables were having what seemed to be holiday dinners. So they can accommodate groups. My friend and I walked in with no reservation and were seated promptly. I decided to have the Peppermint Patty martini which was so tasty. It was garnished with an actual peppermint patty which made for a nice finish. For my entrée, I had the chicken parm, which is mostly chicken and cheese with angel hair pasta underneath the chicken. As the server said, it's enough pasta for each bite. No more than that so don't expect a big pile of pasta. That said, the meal was delicious. The chicken was flavorful with a nice crunch, the red sauce was bold and tangy, and the pasta paired well. By the way, there is complimentary bread with oil/balsamic vinegar. I think it's a great place to have cocktails at the bar, catch up with friends over a nice dinner, or to take a nice date. Feel free to dress for the occasion (we were pretty dressy) because the ambiance calls for that. I loved the experience and I will be back.

The ambiance had the Perfect setting. It felt like I was in New York in an Italian restaurant. From the lighting, the style of furniture, the pictures, and the music gave the right mixture of New York City in Memphis. I started off with the appetizer Ravioli. Again, if your not use to authentic Italian cuisine, the food will be a disappointment. Reason being, they focus on authentic and traditional. I love cheese in ALL dishes. Their ravioli lacked cheese which made the ravioli dry. I ordered a dish that had stuff chicken breast. Per my liking, it was dry as well due to being stuffed and the overcooking. Breast are meant to juicy. However, the pasta and the mushrooms in this dish's was absolutely delicious and favorably.

Gelato. Pistachio, salted Carmel and vanilla

Our dinner was delightful. There were 6 of us and our waitress was attentive and helpful regarding menu suggestions. We ordered appetizer special consisting of grilled shrimp on white beans with tomatoes. It was great. I had wedge salad followed by chicken ravioli with white cream sauce and drizzle of balsamic. It was delicious. For dessert I had a flight of gelato. Salted Carmel, vanilla and pistachio. They were so accommodating. The flight was not on the menu and I couldn't decide which one so I asked and they happily obliged.

Stopped in today during a training held onsite. Luckily, we were able to be seated as we didn't have a reservation. The lunch menu is pretty straightforward. I selected the blackened delta catfish, turnip greens, and the salad. Everything was delicious. The only issue we experienced along with a few other patrons was the water. We corrected it by simply ordering a Dr. Pepper, as we were told, we couldn't bring in bottled water but could order one from them.

Vanilla cannoli
Tabatha B.

Bring your pocketbook for this one cause the price tags are pretty. The place is set up nice with a relaxing atmosphere. They had a pretty good play list of music while there. The food was darn good. The wedge salad was full of flavor from the blue cheese and bacon with super crisp lettuce. The stuffed chicken was finger licking lip smacking delicious. The pizza was really good too. I would have liked to have had more sauce and perhaps having balsamic vinegar drizzle over the top. Now the cheesecake was popping, super creamy. And the cannolis were good as well but they taste even better later that day! Is super crispy and the filling was smooth and thick. Overall the experience was cool and the service was okay. I will revisit for another round.

Lasagna and broccolini.

Irish Irish Irish (Fancy Restaurant)…read more This was the first experience making reservations for an Irish pub, but it was way more than a pub. Think date night. The food was a delight! Recommend the pimento cheese bread sticks for appetizer or any other time. Also, this was the first time I've had a Kilkenny draft which was another highlight. I see now it's rare to find. Smooth and creamy. If I lived nearby, I would be here more often. It's a little on the expensive side, but well worth the price and experience. Just pointing it out to expect to pay, but also pointing out it was worth every cent.

I am an absolute Bog & Barley fan but this review comes with disappointment. The atmosphere is…read morealways great and showed up for Easter brunch after church to a live performer singing some great late 90s/early 2000 tunes (pure nostalgia). The waitress was nice but not very attentive. Focused more on the larger table which I get but I also am a paying customer. Food came out quick and hot and always for a great price. I was hoping for their crispy brussels sprouts but they do not serve for brunch/lunch so had to go with ole faithful "The Scotch Egg". If you have never had one you should definitely try it and the mustard sauce is amazing with it. Unfortunately for you reading this, I didn't get a picture because I devoured that thing the second my plate hit the table!!! For my main meal I went with the corned beef reuben which you can see in the picture just looks thrown together on the plate (very unappealing). The corned beef was a bit dry and tough, the "special sauce" was non existent and couldn't even taste. The best part about a reuben is the crisp buttery rye bread but with this sandwich it sadly was not toasted at all which really takes away from the flavor as well. The chips were just your standard frozen bits but add some salt and ketchup, you're good to go. To top off I went with the crème brûlée for dessert which is always a winner. I will more than likely return as I do enjoy the restaurant and hope that my next experience is a bit more enjoyable.

Every time is a quest and I scored on all counts with Magnolia and May! Typically, we eat at a different place every month to "test the market." But it was unanimous that we come back here next month. We all want to try something different as everyone thought their entrée was the best. Everyone was a bit concerned about the location and parking, but it was easy to locate and easy to park. Service with impeccable and food was fabulous. There were many varied choices for lunch so we all got something different with no complaints!! That's a win for the home team The entrees were savory, cooked to perfection and spot on. The decor was very comfortable, the lighting was perfect as were the fixtures . And now that I'm writing this, my mouth is actually watering so to treat this I'm going tonight with my husband for wine and dinner. It's a win-win!

My coffee was yumminess with white chocolate and espresso. I ordered it half sweet and it was well balanced. My second visit was at The Poplar Plaza shopping center. Another awesome latte! Colin and Sammy were the baristas for both visits. They were super kind and helpful. Loved the new truck decked out in pink. Will find them again in the city since their lattes are balanced between the espresso and variety of offered flavors. Great new coffee truck to return to each week!
