Best Live Music Restaurants in Memphis

When I noticed that the River Terrace had re-opened, I was excited to try it when I was going to be in Memphis for Christmas. I was thrilled that I could get a table on Dec 26, to celebrate my 60th birthday. The last time I dined at the restaurant was in December of 1999, for New Year's Eve. Prior, I was part of the original staff that opened the restaurant in 1982. It was great to see the place re-modeled, re-furbished, and thriving. The view is among the very best in the city. The food was excellent. I had the Blacked Catfish...WOW! The service was very good. I had a nice conversation with the manager and shared a few memories about the old place. I highly recommend Mahagony River Terrace.

Every time I come to Memphis, Itta Bena is my go. Always greeted as soon as you’re walking through the door. Seated quickly & a waiter/waitress is immediately attending to you. My server Nick was GREAT! What I noticed this trip different than the others (over 8 months ago) is the management this go around. He was running food, refilling drinks, and making sure every single customer was comfortable It seemed everyone came at once and they handled it amazing! We will always be back to enjoy the great atmosphere of Itta Bena! Thank you guys!

The staff at the entrance was rude. We did not feel welcome at all. But once seated, our server was great, the food was great and the band playing was excellent. Need the old lady at the entrance removed and you’ll get a five.

Without a doubt, one of THE top restaurants in the city! Food is ALWAYS fantastic and the service outstanding.

Food cane out cold and not together drinks were great waitress was really good made sure everything went well
