Food scene
A classic for over 100 years, this family-owned and operatin restaurant used to be a favorite of Elvis' - so much so that there there is a booth named in his honor (where he used to sit). Be sure to check out the Food Network favorite dishes (my favorite is the Red Neck Breakfast) as well as the Elvis Sandwich. It gets busy for brunch so try to go early to miss the line!
If you get caught in the wait, be sure to check out the awesome shops next door (i.e., Walking Pants, The Broom Closet, The Book Juggler, Feelin' Memphis, Prima Bakery, etc.).

Great for date night or small groups. Amazing Italian food. Although it’s a nice walk up Main Street, you could alternatively take the trolley, which pulls up right in front of the restaurant (just ask the trolley driver to stop at Beale Street).
