    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.

    This was not a good visit! The service was not the best. The young lady literally disappeared for s minute. We then had to wait to order, and then everything we wanted was not available.

    I waited 15 minutes before anyone came to table to ask if I needed anything. My Sister waited 10 minutes before anyone asked her if she was helped. She was told very casually Your party is upstairs after several workers passed by her without an acknowledgement. This was my 3rd time here, Food was good but I'm very skeptical with returning based on CS, that's the reason I don't go to the One on Poplar. Rudest CS ever

    Our bartender made our experience much better. We didn’t like the chair in the white bar area and we requested to move. They didn’t have any tables available. So we were told we could sit upstairs at the bar. I’m so glad we did. The best experience. Shan took care of us as we celebrate our friendship. She was quick to respond to our every need. The food took a while to get but it was freshly made and it seasoned to perfection. The drinks and food was 10 out of 10.

    On 12/21/2024, me and my husband were seated against the wall at a high table for two. The table was super small and the bar seats were very uncomfortable. The bar seat felt as if you had to brace yourself so you would not slide down. I went and asked the host could we sit at a lower table. I could tell she had an attitude due to the look on her face. She said to me, I can move yall but you can only sit there for a hour and a half. The nerve of her to sound so rude!!!!! If yall want people to enjoy themselves hell allow them to sit comfortably. As for the food after being seated at a table comfortably, I give it a 1000/10.

    Wonderful water views from our table. Quiet dining room with excellent service. We had wonderful cocktails followed by delicious soft crab sliders as a shared starter. Then shrimp and grits that were great and with a generous supply of shrimp. Also a crab salad that was also generous with the top quality crab. We finished this off with beignets that were simply sinfully deliciously good and also a great bread pudding.

    The food was good and the ambience great. The live music was great, just would have preferred it to be a little softer, so I wouldn't have to yell to speak to my friends while dining.
