Their food is delicious and priced affordably. The menu is decent for a venue. There's a jug of…read morewater near the bar which I appreciate since I don't drink. Everyone who works there is super friendly. The decor is great. It feels like a dark, dingy bar but it's really nice. The stage is set up well and you can see it well from anywhere you sit. There's also a patio area outside where you can smoke and there are televisions outside that show a live view of the stage so you don't miss your show if you step outside. They get some incredibly talented folks playing shows there. Highly recommend going on a night where they have Chicken S#*t Bingo. It's a lot of fun and super cheap to play.

The front desk staff was attentive and easy to scan our pre paid tickets. I did not try any food items but did have a drink from the bar. The bartender made it to my taste since I am not a heavy drinker , with a light hand as requested. Highly recommend all tourists to get it out- the parking lot has security guards and I felt safe inside as well.

We had a reservation on Open Table made prior, and the hostess was ready for us upon arrival. We were sat at a table for 6 that fit us nicely. Some of the seating is open to the room but we were in a booth with a little more intimate setting. It was nice for privacy but also you didn't get the full ambience over in that area. We ordered drinks and apps first. Mimosas come in pretty glasses but also come loaded down with ice, which seemed to water them down a bit. Two of us ordered Bloody Marys. In the past, they've had a spicy one with ghost pepper vodka that was divine. These were mediocre at best. Next up was appetizers which stole the show! We got sweet potato hash, beignets, and dumplings. Just WOW. 10/10 for all of those. For entrees we had chicken and waffles, shrimp and grits, and a smash burger with fries. The menu is misleading as it says the sandwiches come with fries. In small print it says comes with fries FOR $7. I don't eat fries but ordered them because I thought it was just an option of fries or fruit. 20% grat is added to all orders no matter party size, which does compromise the service, I think. Overall, I wouldn't come for drinks but I'd definitely stop by for an app!

We had the jerk chicken with plantains, NY strip, the amazing brussel sprouts, and the shrimp and the white truffle fries. It was some of the best food I have had this year. Great job Memphis! They pay the bands so don't have complaints about cover charge even if you eat here. They try to get bands from out of town as well as local bands. Support live music

I'm disappointed to update my review to two stars. I likely won't be back…read more I arrived to grab a glass of wine and relax for a little bit. The bouncer stopped me and abruptly said, "cover's $12". I paused and said, "oh, didn't know that there was a cover" "yeah, band tonight". With no one behind me waiting to get in, the bouncer again abruptly said, "well...." and pointed his hand toward the street. Meaning, that if I wasn't willing to make a decision to pay the $12 cover at that moment, he was directing me to move to the road. Wow. What an asshole. The $12 isn't an issue for me, it just caught me off guard and I needed a moment to consider if it was worth it for me, considering that I'd likely spend maybe 30-45 mins there. I reached out to the owner, Karen, and never heard back. Maybe they're shifting toward the "scrappy dive bar" scene. That's just not for me.
