It's a decent spot to chill at for a minute. The outdoor seating and standing area is actually pretty cool to have drinks in especially during the spring and summer nights. Service and drinks were pretty good, no complaints there. Outside you can have a smoke too. It's a vibe inside. I haven't tried their food, but no complaints from all the rest. read more

Everything was absolutely great. Candice and Larry took care of us. We came in on an impromptu late night before we left the next day and we ordered the margarita pizza which was a 10 out of 10 and we had some of the most tastiest drinks we've ever had thank you again to Candice and Larry for taking care of us and we will definitely be back when we visit Memphis. read more

Went after the Ali Sadiq comedy show and had great drinks and decent food. The service was horrendous. The waitress only came to our table to take the orders and bring an incorrect check, which she reran 3 times, because she couldn't get it right. I had to go find her to cash out. She mixed up our tabs and it was only two tabs for a table of four. Management was super nonchalant and couldn't care less. His comment was, well we weren't expecting this kind of crowd. Sir, you get paid to anticipate this type of crowd, especially when you work downtown. The number of patrons has nothing to do with the screwing up of the checks. I will not be back. And they charge for 20% gratuity for crappy service, knowing they do not meet decent expectations. read more

I love this place. It's a cozy but fun spot right in the middle of downtown. The food is always consistent and their pizzas are great. Plus the bar staff (I always sit at the bar) are attentive and know what they are doing. Can't recommend this place enough ! Great place to just chill or meet some friends and cut loose. read more

Nice vibe and quick service. Music was great. In house DJ, but low enough for you still to talk calmly to your group. Crowd was likely 30 and up. Food was quick and good. Group of 4. We ordered the shrimp pasta and two unique pizzas. I'll be back. Old fashion, 8.5 out of 10! read more

Wow..... Totally nice to the bouncer but because I am wearing a Lakers Jersey after a Lakers win @ Memphis 15+ people go in with no trouble, ZERO cover!!! Then of course I got told there is a cover charge of $20..... 15+ people before me walk right in!!!!!! Brutal. Yet.... I get turned down, it was 30% full at most. Sooooooo disappointing, Yelp elite in 2023' & first time I had that happen ever. Had dinner at the Green Beetle & it was awesome. Silly goose without going in seams totally mid....Work on your bouncers..... The bouncers are the handshake to the customer before going inside!!!! See you in 3 weeks when Lakers have home court, total loser play.... Beg the manager to have some guts & call me about it.... #Brutal #Horrendous read more

Good drinks, food, and service! We went around 10 pm and the music wasn't too loud, we could still hear our conversation so that was nice! The Margherita Pizza was delicious! read more

We visited this establishment for our weekly date night last Thursday. We arrived approximately 15 minutes after the doors opened. There were a group of women sitting at a table with lounge chairs drinking and appearing to be having a conversation. We were greeted immediately upon entering and were told that we could sit anywhere. We found our seats and ordered drinks. We wanted to order our meal but were told the kitchen wouldn't be available for an hour and a half. We contemplated on leaving but decided to stay. We had drinks and conversation until the kitchen opened. We ordered pizza (pepperoni and pepperoni/sausage) and a Caesar salad each. The bill came and it was $118 2 pizzas 2 Caesar salads 2 French 75's 2 cans of Coke Cola 20% mandatory gratuity Although our server was extremely engaging and nice we will not be returning. The above items weren't worth the price charged. read more

I did not order food, so I can't leave anything on that. The service was good, our guy was helpful and prompt with us. I enjoyed the ambiance and music, even though we went on a Monday night and it was slow. We wanted a last minute date night so it ended up working out perfect. The drinks were good, I forgot what we ordered. Mine was the first drink on the Menu. I have no complaints read more

I had this place marked to visit for drinks next time I was in Memphis, but I had no idea that would be pasding thru driving from Raleigh, NC to Austin, TX on Thanksgiving night. Luckily, Silly Goose serves pasta and pizza, too, so my wife ordered a Caesar Salad while I had some pasta with shrimp, while enjoying a couple Silly Goose cocktails and IPA's. Our bartender was amazing, and with no servers working the holiday, went above and beyond taking care of our needs. While I can check Silly Goose off my list of places to try, I'll certainly be back my next trip, which hopefully will be for several days to enjoy more music, restaurants, and Southern hospitality that surround Silly Goose--centered in it all downtown. Great drinks, location and service for 5 stars. read more

I was with a group of 6. Our waiter came by three times in 2 1/2 hours. Wanted to get another drink but was just too tired after waiting. Gratuity is included, so I had to tip the horrible waiter for doing nothing. I will say the clean up staff and front door people were very good. read more

This cool little place got me thinking when I can come back! The pizza and drinks are both very affordable and enjoyable. The staff is respectful and still calm. The ambiance just hits different, you know? I definitely rate this 5 stars, for sure. read more

Good Luck Getting Your Food This Year. I walked into the restaurant at about 7pm on a Tuesday night. There were maybe 20 people in there, majority at tables only a few at the bar. Bartenders were quick to take my order and make my drink, which was very good. After about 20 minutes of waiting for my food the restaurant had pretty much cleared out except for a large table of about 12. At the 30 minute waiting point the bartender went to check on my food, but didn't have an update. At the 40 minute point they were "working on it". At the 50 minute point it finally went in the oven. It was at that point I was told that my ticket went in right after the large party which is why it was taking so long. I received the pizza about an hour after ordering and it tasted excellent. Although I'm not sure if that's because it was actually that good or I was starving to death. Overall the bar service was quick and the food and drinks were good. I believe in providing feedback in person not on social media, so I did. After I paid my bill (which was not discounted and had a 20% service charge) I recommended to the bartenders that they let someone know if their food is going to take a long time because I would have ordered an appetizer or gone somewhere else instead of waiting for an hour. Unfortunately, the reason I'm writing this is that the response I got was "we didn't know it would take that long". Seeing as they took the orders, they had to know there was a huge ticket back there in front of mine. So moral of the story, I'd stop in there for a drink any night of the week but be cautious when ordering food because if the bartenders don't know it's gonna take a while on a Tuesday and don't have the courtesy to tell you, I can't imagine the wait on a Friday night. read more

We had high hopes for this place because of how pretty it was when we walked in but our expectations were not met. First, i ordered an expresso martini and it was not right AT ALL. I told the waiter and she said i couldn't take it back which is crazy if it's not made correctly....then she offered to make me another drink and made sure to tell me i would have to pay for both....then we ordered a pizza and it was so incredibly bland and tasteless. Me and my date were both underwhelmed by the experience and then to top it off one of the employees kept playing VERY LOUD videos on his phone, so loud to the point that i could hear it over the music which is insane because the music was loud. Needless to say i won't be back. read more

This is another great place in downtown Memphis. Great atmosphere great also nice for small events. I love their pizzas brick oven style and they have a nice selection of libations and they can basically make any drink your wants. read more

I'm not one to post, but the way my black fiancé was treated Friday night was unfair. We were going to stop in for some drinks with friends. They checked my ID and was going to allow me in and then when it was my fiancé , they decided to pull some "you need a shirt" bullshit. I spoke up. You can allow three white women with nothing over their boobs but my fiancé can't come in with a nice (not some slouchy T-shirt either) tank top with straight pants and snazzy shoes ? But you'll let the white girls in? Definitely racism AND sexism going on here. Super disappointed. So when I call the security guard (both white men) out on the bullshit he can't even give me an answer, just , "you can have a good time somewhere else." How disappointing. Couldn't even give me a real answer. It's a shame that the guards pick and choose who comes in. This is not a welcoming environment. Racist rent a cops, couldn't believe this. Will be sharing this with the black community. Do better. We're in 2022! ZERO stars. Look at the picture I had screen shot of a white girl not wearing shit, posted BY THE BUSINESS OWNER. if there's a dress code , why the HELL are white women (yes I'm white before you think differently) wearing this ? Racist and sexism LIKE I SAID ! read more

I'm glad this restaurant is opened. I can't tell you how many times I have drove past this eatery in the past! We decided to stop in today and was pleasantly surprised! They have all of the new COVID regulations on the door clearly posted for everyone (masks, etc.). It was a beautiful day and it was a great visit because I felt comfortable enough to actually sit down and eat. I have been really really nervous and Leary of restaurants lately as everyone else is.. We came in and was greeted by a cheerful bartender and asked for our drink choices. She then showed us to the table and Showed us how to access the virtual menu. We eventually switched tables because we needed a bigger area, the workers came right after us and swiftly wiped down the table area). Our food came within 10 minutes (well his food did - the spicy boi) and they brought me a caprese salad for the wait. The salad was amazing! Never tasted anything so yummy!!! 2 minutes later my order came (the big cheese pie).. omg... soooo yummmyy!!! I couldn't finish it al, but will make for great leftovers! I will definitely be recommending this place to all my business clients that fly into the area and they are looking for a great place! Especially since they usually are developers, CEOs etc and often stay downtown so this is whim walking distance! Great find!! Can't believe I've never been here! Btw... chees and bacon is local and the tomatoes are imported from Macon, TN and the dough is made from scratch!! Talk about keeping it local! Yeee! read more

We went in really late at night. The bartender was very friendly and knowledgeable. I asked for a Malibu rum and pineapple juice. She didn't have Malibu so she recreated the drink with what she had behind the bar. Absolutely outstanding! read more

the pizza was really good. the toppings were fresh, wood fire is always a YES, and the sauce had a kick to it. like I enjoyed every last bite but the ambiance is very strange. looks like a mix of different pinterest boards in what use to be an italian wear house. the tables were wood barrels, walls are brick, but you have these floating plants/chandeliers. like it made no sense. also the crowd was an interesting mix of football fans, a couple of swingers, and a group of young millennials in tech. it felt like we were out of our regular space and time in not the best way , but would eat that pizza again read more

3.5 stars Something's never change. It has been a super long minute since I have been to the Silly Goose. Back in the day when this first opened, this would be my stomping grounds. Great vibe, good drinks, and chill to bring friends or a date. None of those aspects have changed and therefore I value Silly Goose for that. What has changed is the attitude of the staff. I do not know if coming the day I did was an off day or what, but they didn't seem to know what in the world they were doing. There seemed to be confusion on who the bartender was! The chef was serving drinks to patrons at the bar along with Howsy. Again, I do not know, but that made things a little weird and confusing to ask who for what. Their demeanor in the process seemed to be under the tension of the frustration of who was missing from doing what job. Short-staffed, maybe? Regardless, of the staff mix up, the drinks were good. My cousin got a few $2 tall boy PBRs and I had a couple of martinis that didn't run me anything. Drinks here are super cheap and food doesn't go missed either. They have decent pizzas. I'd say that Silly Goose mainly encompasses the Main Street neighborhood as their patrons. It is very much a 'local bar'. It serves a good purpose and that is apparent by how many years it has been in business. read more

Ordered a Bombay Sapphire martini up, extra dry, but got a dirty martini. When I asked the bartender if my martini was dirty, she said, "no." So, I asked her what was in it then and she replied, "olive juice because we're out of vermouth." Just dumbfounded. On a positive note, the place is nice with a good vibe. read more

From coming in and seating ourselves then moving closer to the bar the bartenders on staff for 20 mins did not acknowledge me and my date since we were a mixed couple but took the initiative to start a conversation with the all white couple that came in 20 mins after we did then turned around and started talking to the all black couple that came in and started a conversation with them an additional 10 mins after me and my date have been there waiting 20 minutes before the all white couple showed up making the total wait time 40 min before I decided to leave not interacting with a single employee before making that decision to leav e. They may have good food and make ok drinks but it's not worth the silent discrimination you have to go through just to get service. Would give less than one star for the price that the restaurant claims to be worth. read more

Didn't think so many establishments would be closed in Memphis. Was grateful to stumble upon Silly Goose, and super excited they were still open. There was no wait time to be seated , was seated at the bar. I love the ambiance inside , you definitely go here for an intimate date. The wall paper inside is cute , felt like I was seated in a living room. The staff are extremely attentive and didn't have to wait long for food. The pizza was freshly prepared and not to mention delicious. You can definitely share the pizza with at least 3-4 people. Would appreciate is there was a smaller pie. Will definitely revisit when I revisit Memphis. Not to mention the food is super affordable. read more

Out of town from Atlanta , Racist bar, my man had on some givenchy blue jeans, dolce gabbana shoes, with a black givenchy embroidered t shirt.
