    There was a cover charge of $10 per person - would have been good to know this in advance, if possible. Otherwise had a good time.

    Service was slow and forgetful. Felt like we were ignored most of the evening and had to go to the bar to ask for silverware.

    Fun place to eat. Music was wonderful. Do not expect to be able to carry on a conversation but a great place to hang out, eat and listen to great music.

    BB King Blues Band restaurant was awesome! Like all the restaurants and bars on Beale Street, this restaurant had a live band that played great blues and rock music! We had an early dinner with ribs and Mac and cheese which were to die for! Rib meat fell off the bone as soon we picked it up. Yet still very moist. And the rub on the ribs was great also. Service and atmosphere and food were all fabulous! Would definitely go back whenever we are in the neighborhood @
