I guess I could see that some people would come here for the atmosphere, but there aren't many other reasons to come to this place. The atmosphere in my opinion is dark, murky, and on the night I was there freezing. It had roughly the same ambiance of a cave with pool tables and a bar. The service, which I hear is notoriously slow, was exactly that. There wasn't anybody in the place yet it took forever for the waitress to tear herself away from her conversation to take our order. When she finally did take our order it didn't take to long for the food itself to come out. I ordered the Hot Roast Beef, with sweet potato fries. I understand that when you order something with Jalapenos on it that they have a strong flavor and can drown out other more subtle flavors. This sandwich tasted like it had been soaked in Jalapeno juice. The sandwich had a substantial amount of onions on it, you would think you could at least taste that, but nope it tasted like jalapeno on tasteless bread. The beef looked like good quality meat, there was just no tasting it. The sweet potato fries were good, but there are actually better ones served in Memphis as these were extremely greasy. Unless you are going specifically to see a band that you like there I would avoid this place and eat at one of the many other fine eateries in the area. If you are going to drink then this place is fine as they have a pretty substantial list of good beers. Just avoid it as the place to go for a good dinner.
Pros: Dark atmosphere if you like that thing
Cons: Service
