This place is a beautiful and priceless place from the past! It was a great place for a rock concert too.

My husband and I are frankly appalled at some things about this place and while they have a lot of…read morefans of it, I have heard of many who don't care for it and let me explain why. First, let's talk some positives. The waitresses are friendly and the food is quite good. However, receiving your food is often a slow process as they need more kitchen help apparently. But still you can get a good meal. Second good thing is they do have some fun activities like Darts, Pools, and sometimes have bands most of which are really good. And maybe all of that is enough for you. But! This place is very cliquish. If they don't know you, you may not enjoy it for me. Two, the owner seems like a nice enough lady but she is constantly using profanity, justifying, including the F bomb, and other choice words. I understand we all let a word out here or there but it is constant and that is unprofessional. My husband and I many months ago went to hear a band out of Memphis and she proceeded to multiple times get on the mike and let out a slew of profanities including using God's name in vain and then proceeded to demand everyone stand and sing Lee Greenwood's God Bless the USA. Okay, that would be cool but you take God's name in vain, you let off several F Bombs and then after the song is over let them fly again. Huh? And they claim everyone is welcome. That is completely not true as this isn't a bar it is a political rally. My husband and I are independents and we thought we might get mauled in there. Once again the owner will get on the mic with a constant political agenda. That is not professional. Maybe independents like my family is or yes even Democrats may want to come in and eat or see a band. Trust me you are not welcome and will not feel welcome. I don't care what someone's political agenda is you do not run a business that way. They may as well put out a sign if you are not an Extreme Right Republican do not enter the hallowed halls (And after seeing all the details about the Insurrection the other night, how can anyone defend either party these days by I digress). My husband and I believe any business that has a political agenda is unprofessional and should be avoided as much as possible. A bar and grill should be an escape from the real world. This one is clearly not. No thank you.

My wife and her sister and I have been before to see Triple Annie who are a great band. It is a…read moreplace only for a select group. In other words, it is a clique and definitely not the place for someone who doesn't like hearing excessive profanity, Extremist political views, patrons attacked if they aren't paying attention to what the owner is saying etc. I will say the food is good there and the prices are decent but make sure you are a member of the Cult. And I know what you are thinking. Some of you are probably rolling your eyes saying ahhh a Democrat or Biden supporter. No, what I am saying is a place should be enjoyable and escapism and that is not it. The owner will also interrupt the band's set with a political rant. This is not a political rally it is a bar with music, pool, etc. Everyone is entitled to their belief system but keep it at home and I see other users feel the same.

My wife and I absolutely love the orpheum. We try to catch any show that might interest us. It was…read moreour anniversary. My wife got us tickets to see Gary Owen because she knows how much I love seeing him. The show was absolutely great and she picked some very good seats. I did feel like he cut the show just a little short. There's always that one drunk person that wants to yell out from the crowd. I think it was starting to irritating. What can you say about the orpheum? That hasn't already been said. It's a very nice historical place. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars. Is because like everyone else, they take advantage of people on concessions. I realized back in the day. This is the way places made their money. It's a little different these days. They make plenty of money on the shows. My other small complaint is the seating. Although its way better than Minglewood Hall, the seats are just too close together. I'm a big fella, and it's just very uncomfortable. Overall, they put on great shows and the place is very nice. I definitely wouldn't let the small things stop you from going.

Memphis does have a theater district & stars on the sidewalk in front acknowledging performers…read more The Orpheum Theatre, a 2,308-seat venue that opened in 1928 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Touring Broadway productions, Ballet Memphis, various concerts, comedians, a summer movie series, a family series of educational programs, and local cultural & community events such as Memphis in May, International Blues Challenge, and special Elvis Week events take place here. In 1890, the Grand Opera House opened on the corner of Main & Beale streets, and was billed as the most classy theater outside New York City. Vaudeville was the main source of entertainment at the time, featuring singers, musicians & magicians. The "STARZ" are actually names in the Orpheum Theatre's Sidewalk of Stars, a tradition honoring artists who have performed here. The names, found on brass stars embedded in the sidewalk at Main & Beale Streets, commemorate performers from the Orpheum's history, much like the Hollywood Walk of Fame,
