I've been here a time or two, and it gets more beautiful each time. The view is spectacular, and…read moremaybe even better, the prices are ridiculous. $3-$4 for a cocktail of your choice and pretty cheap bites if you're up to munching too - you really can't beat it. It's a great environment and a good place to grab a drink after work or just because. One might think that would constitute 5 stars, but time after time I've been here, the service continues to be subpar. It is not difficult to be pleasant. Try harder. I always feel like I'm inconveniencing the gentleman bartender who works many of the nights. I'm sorry you have to do your job; mine sucks sometimes too, but I manage a smile and a polite demeanor. But seriously, go. It's worth it.

Holy moly! That view!…read more I attended the Special Olympics dinner here a year or two ago and was completely blown away by the view (especially at night...all those pretty lights!)...and yesterday (during the day) was no different (GORGEOUS!). I've heard rumors for awhile now that they a happy hour and it has been on my short list of things I want to try it. Well, yesterday I had a meeting in the bar area at 4 and decided to ring up a few friends after it was over to fully experience their happy hour. And honey, I'm so glad I did. Their house by the glass is only $4 and well liquor is $3. Tower Center, I think we're going to get along just fine (especially since my office is literally next door). But what really impressed me (besides that view), was the food! I am super picky about my cheese plates and not only was it pretty to look at, but it was yummy to eat (kinda important). And the chicken wings? Yes, please! They were so cute and tiny and delicious! I've actually never seen pretty chicken wings but somehow they managed to do it (no seriously, check out my photo). I also stole some bites of my dining partner's french fries and they were indeed just like I like 'em. And the pizza? Phenomenal! You've got to check out my food porn pics! They also rent out the venue space so take a peek around!

I'm partially biased, b/c I work for Angela these days (part time)...but- I was with Memphis Event…read moreDesign and the Peabody prior to joining the SEP team, so I worked with her as a vendor in the past (and always had a great experience). Angela is like a wedding genie. She is REALLY good at matching the right vendors with the right brides based on their budgets and their personality. I know, because she totally nailed it when I needed a photographer and florist for my New Orleans wedding in 2011 (prior to my employment there). For anyone considering a planner, especially for a wedding- look no further. SEP is a one stop shop for decor, floral, coordination, invitations, and vendor recommendations. Their rates are extremely fair and competitive. Check the reviews on Wedding Wire, the Knot and many other sources. SEP has been around for over twenty years and their experience shows in everything they do.

I am unsure why the other reviews are so bad - Angela was amazing and we loved working with her…read more We hired Angela because we live in California and were planning a wedding in Memphis. We DID NOT want to be involved in every single detail and wanted to delegate as much as possible to Angela. She helped with contracts, design, vendor selection, and with my sanity. Angela took care of every detail and was extremely organized. Angela organized things so well that we only made a single trip to Memphis during the planning process for a weekend filled with meeting DJs, musicians, tasting caterer menus, and visiting venues. Most importantly, Angela took the time to understand the vision we had for our wedding and was very creative and meticulous in executing it. She had great vendor recommendations, but didn't mind working with new vendors we had heard good things about. She worked her contacts to help us find a band composed of local church musicians, and mined flea markets for months looking for decorations - she really went above and beyond. Our wedding was as unique and beautiful as we had hoped for and we owe it all to Angela. I would recommend Southern Event Planners to anyone looking for a unique and wonderful wedding.

absolutely amazing birthday (i'm officially Unc status) dinner for myself and my wife (Soon! Ring…read moreotw) and family. Food was incredible. She got Voodoo Chicken Pasta (it did not lay any curses on her,,, but did taste delicious.) i got red beans and rice. MM! She got the spiced pear martini, fantastic (and STRONG! as she said.) I got the Old Fashioned (e.g. unc status. it was fantastic and the chocolate bitters were so scrumptious.) service was good and efficient! and the restaurant is very pretty and well maintained, like the others in the Regalia center. Very good experience and I am left happy!!

Couldn't decide if service or food was worse. We were promptly seated and put in our orders (dozen…read moreoysters, grouper ceviche, pasta jambalaya and redfish). Grouper and oyster arrived within 1 min of each other, and then it was all downhill. 2 main entrees arrived when I just got my first bite of the grouper- basically all the food arrived within 5 min of each other, so entree were just chilling at the table while we were trying to eat appetizer first. Not once did the waiter stopped by to see how the food was. Everyone who walked by didn't look at us. We had to wave someone cleaning the table to ask for the waiter for new plates (which he kindly got for us) bc we got to the entree (about 20 min later). Had to wave someone else down to get a refill on water, who told us our waiter had a large party, which doesn't excuse being ignored for 50 min. After that, we had a new waitress who stopped by more often, but we lost our appetite for dessert or ordering a cocktail. As far as food: Grouper ceviche- too acidic that I didn't taste any other flavors. I love acidity but this was too much Oysters- my friend enjoyed it. She had a couple gritty ones, but I had no issues Pasta jambalaya: super salty otherwise great flavors Redfish- my friend's fave dish. She absolutely enjoyed it Overall, disappointing for the amount of money paid for the food and service. Wanted to come back for cioppino for dinner but not after this experience.
