River Oaks - Memphis

What a disappointment. This is the 1st visit with Chef Gutierrez. My waitress was non-attentive and non-friendly. Between the arrival of beverages and when I ordered (only after I had to ask someone to find her for the 2nd time), the table next to me ordered, ate appetizers and were almost done with their meal. She never apologized and I continued to have to get someone to round her up each time I needed her despite the fact that I was her only table (she also worked at the vacant bar area). This is not the place to bring children (not even chicken tenders). I ordered Chicken Paillard and my daughter wouldn't touch it. The waitress never even acknowledged this. This was a huge disappointment to me since I've enjoyed the restaurant in the past.

Food is great but their sign says they close at 10. Someone yelled from the parking lot at me, “they’re closed!” I said are you speaking to me? It was so rude. I said it says 10 and I only want a dessert. “You can go in but they are cleaning and they are closed.” There were customers still in the restaurant, mind you. So. I took my Black self inside to ask if I could get a dessert because not only does google say they close at 10, but so does the door. “We’re closed!” said the bartender as I’m walking past customers. I said I don’t wish to be seated. I was only interested in a dessert and it says you’re open til 10. That’s a mistake. Ok so you have a mistake on Google AND your door? Right. A whole 30 minutes early and I can’t get a dessert. This restaurant is in my neighborhood and I actually once liked it but I won’t be back. When I think of it, I heard they don’t particularly care for my kind anyway.

Good place to dine and converse with friends. The Monday special, Lobster and pasta in a light cream sauce was delicious. Others enjoyed the scallops and pasta. Service was great and we could actually hear one another!! Will definitely head there on our next visit to Memphis.Food: 5/5

The food is soooo good here. My friend and I went for girls' night, and we loved the food. They also have healthy options to choose from on the menu. Great Customer ServiceFood: 5/5

Nice atmosphere and great service. I had a good French 75, people at my table ordered mojitos and had to ask for simple syrup. TV dinner was great, but it’s different day to day. Other than that, other people at table ordered French dip and the pastrami sandwiches, liked them! Great restaurant overall!Food: 5/5
