   Miso was our server and was very friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. The restaurant is beautiful and the lighting and ambiance were outstanding. We skipped the chef’s tasting menu and ordered a bottle of wine, selection of 3 cheeses to start, two little bites and two main courses. They didn’t have our wine which happens but selected a second one. The wine arrived as sudden did our appetizers. We sent them back since we hadn’t hard the cheese course yet. The selection of cheeses was tremendous. 1/2 way through the cheese course, our appetizers came again. We sent them back a second time. Service, silverware delivery, wine glass refilling, etc were poor. This is a really nice restaurant with mediocre service and expensive prices. The Pappardelle with lamb had a sugar spoon sized piece of lamb with pasta in a soy sauce tasting pool. Ih and we got charged for two cocktails we didn’t order. Maybe we just had an off night on our first and only visit. Go there for drinks and a cheese course and go somewhere else for dinner.

   Thursday’s Tasting Experience & wine pairing was quite innovative, just the right amount of deliciousness & reasonably priced. Would return to feast on regular seasonal menu.

   Tonight’s dinner did not disappoint! Chef Nate Henssler five-course tasting experience with tales of agave pairing was excellent.

   Great time! Staff were friendly and very professional. Each course came out in a timely manner but never felt rushed through the meal. The amuse-bouche soup was incredible!! We’ll be back!!

   This is our first time here, and we were celebrating my birthday. From the valet to the front desk, we were treated with smiles. A birthday acknowledgement from the lovely lady at the hostess stand started off our evening. The space is gorgeous! It's hard to believe this was the old William C Ellis & Sons Machine Shop. They kept some of the rustic characteristics while adding beautiful lights and a cozy ambience. Our server, Miso, (like the soup, ha!) was a joy to be around. He was so knowledgeable about the entire menu and had great suggestions. Our favorites started with the delicious Final Rose and Midnight Trolley cocktails. We then shared the Blackberry Oysters, Gulf Prawns, and Seafood Chowder. All were outstanding, flavorful and did not disappoint! My least favorite was the Charred Octopus Salad, which wasn't terrible but wasn't as flavorful as our other dishes. We should have stopped there, because we were getting full, but we had the New Bedford Hake and couldn't finish it! It was tasty, though. My husband's fav dessert is carrot cake, so we had to take a slice home. Can't wait to return to this lovely restaurant, cause we have other things to try. What a treasure for downtown Memphis!

    This was our first visit. We choose it to celebrate my wife’s birthday. We were not disappointed. Our waiter, Jaydon did a great job explaining the menu and specials. He did not mind my wife and I asking additional questions through out our stay. Our entire meal from starter to dessert was a 10.
