I use yelp a lot and sometimes it confuses me. Like why this place was listed as #29 in the downtown area when it is BY FAR the best restaurant I visited in Memphis - and I went to a lot of them. This place is just outstanding in every aspect. Food, Drink, Service, and ambiance are all top notch. How it can be rated lower than the cold hash browns diner down the street is just a real head scratcher. I had the deviled eggs - some of the best I have ever had. Also the beet and pear salad was absolutely incredible - on par with many michelin rated restaurants i have visited - there is something very special happening in this kitchen. The bread pudding dessert was over the top. Service at the bar from Decree was fast, friendly, and the guy is just funny and fun to talk with. Do not sleep on this place - you will not regret visiting, i stake my 10 years as a yelp elite on it. read more

Came here to watch a little bit of the World Cup so I only got a drink, but I will say I'm looking forward to coming back to try the food but the ambience on the inside is so nice and decorated beautifully. The pictures online does not do this restaurant justice. It is so gorgeous on the inside. The cosmopolitan was perfect as well. I will definitely be back soon. read more

Walked in, greeted right away. Given a choice of 2 different tables, up front by window or in back of restaurant, a little more cozy. Our waiter Chris was very pleasant and genuine. I loved the honest answers to questions about the menu, not just everything is great here. Food was some of the best I have had in a long time in a fine dining experience! Red snapper special was fantastic. The deviled eggs were really good as well. I will be ordering those again when We come back! For a coupleIt's a $200 night with a cocktail and wine with dinner. If you are looking for a date night or to celebrate a special night, I can't recommend this place enough. read more

It had been years since my last visit to Felicia Suzanne's and the first time at this new location. This restaurant continues to impress with service and quality, and now in this location with ambiance as well. I like the feel of this location better than the old. What stayed the same is the food - wonderful We started with excellent drinks and then appetizers and salads, which are a highlight. White Cheddar Grit Muffins are amazing. Beet and Pear salad is small, but a flavor sensation. The BLFGT salad is in a class of its own. Other highlights were the fried green tomatoes, the shrimp and grits (best anywhere in the world) and the spinach madeleine. This is a special occasion restaurant that is a step above all the other ones in Memphis, In my opinion. From the minute you step inside until you exit, it is satisfaction in every way. read more

From the moment we sat down, everything--from service to presentation--was absolute perfection. The ambiance was fancy!! I'm not usually one for shrimp and grits, but they were fire. The quail was perfectly crisp, balanced over silky mash and greens. The beef carpaccio was bright and tender with just the right punch of capers and onions. We started with the deviled eggs (chow chow), which were creamy with a tangy twist. Every dish was thoughtfully composed and bursting with flavor. Dessert? Decadent. A peppermint patty with a playful scoop of strawberry ice cream and a snowfall of powdered sugar was almost too pretty to eat (nearly). The only miss of the night was the White Russian. Luckily, the rest of the cocktails carried the weight. The traditional old-fashioned and Mai Tai were delicious! Take this with a grain of salt--maybe because I don't like a White Russian. Overall, this spot nails Southern classics with upscale finesse. I highly recommend it, even if you think you don't like shrimp and grits. read more

Really beautiful interior, and the drinks were great. Server was super sweet, only issue we had was that my parents wine took forever to come out. The quail is absolutely phenomenal and my favorite thing in the menu, but my girlfriend's Hugo Sunday was also really really good. We got the chicken crepes as the appetizer, and not a single person regretted it because they were phenomenal. Great time and great vibes. read more

I was so excited to try this new restaurant on South Main and was not disappointed! I arrived right when they opened and sat at the bar. They weren't busy yet so I conversed with a few staff members and everyone was very friendly. The bartender taking care of me was great as well. I ordered the Sunday Sugo and omg it was delicious and very flavorful. I will absolutely be returning soon. read more

Wow, Felicia Suzanne's surely serves the elevated Southern fare in a beautiful, tasteful, and vibrant space. Felicia Suzanne's is the place to be to impress and be impressed. The spacious restaurant can accommodate parties of all sizes for a variety of fancy occasions or date night. I was blown away by the Scottish Salmon and Fried Okra. The Scottish Salmon paired with the sweet corn etouffee was out of this world--the dressing itself was very world delicious sitting on top of a white creamy sauce. The highlight was the lightly fried okra with buttermilk ranch--easily the best fried okra I had in town. Simply an amazing dinner at a beautiful restaurant. read more

Have supported this restaurant for many years. Even driving downtown and picking up during covid! I was given 2 gift certificates 5 months prior to fs closing for 18 months We tried to use the lesser of the 2 gift certificates ($50) on a $600 tab They refused the gift certificate.... Poor customer service!!! read more

Another issue is when making a reservation they threaten you with a $50/per person charge if you are late beyond 15 minutes for your scheduled time but then have absolutely no accountability for being late and slow. Reservation 7:15-table at 7:40, first morsel, chicken crepes that were just ok at 8:30.... shame read more

My first time to go. I came in and sat at the bar. I said, "I would like to have dinner." The bartender pulled out an electronic pad (like an iPad) and said, "I will need some information before I can serve you, what's your phone number." Being a 64 year old man who has never been asked that question anywhere in the world, I said, "I will find another place to dine." I stood up and walked out. About a 2 minute experience. I will not return. read more

Glad I was talked into going here!!! As you all know, we waited years for Felicia Suzanne's to open back up. It is worth the wait. I was greeted with smiles. Didn't make a reservation but was told the bar was available. My friend & I prefer to sit at the bar, so it was perfect. Our bartender/server was Decree (hope that is correct) & what an absolute delight. We brought a bottle of wine. First question wasn't would you like me to open this now; it was would you like for me to decant it. This was a bit refreshing. As we were sitting there, we asked Decree what his favorite item on the menu was & we took his suggestion. We started with the Tasso Shrimp. This was a bit lacking & too much green onion. Next, we had the FSR salad. This is simple and full of flavor. I am not a dressing fan, but the balance was just perfect. Lastly, we went with Decree's suggestion (he didn't disappoint), Sunday Sugo. This dish is rich & oh so yummy!! We happen to enjoy spicy items, so some cracked red pepper would have put it over the top for us, but HIGHLY recommend this dish. I will be getting it again. The atmosphere here is amazing. If you are looking for interesting décor, there is something to see everywhere including the bathroom. Also, this place is much bigger than you think. Be on the lookout for the signs posted throughout. Yes, it is an older building so it does have some odd characteristics, but this just adds to the wonderful experience. This is a great date night and/or special occasion place. Something for everyone & recommend taking a chance. You will not be disappointed. read more

Felicia Suzanne's Restaurant - Beef Carpaccio - New American Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Being from Atlanta , this was My first trip to the new Felicia Suzanne's in downtown Memphis. I enjoyed the old Felicia's but absolutely loved the new experience. The menu was simple in the best way, leaving plenty of options for everyone. We started with chargrilled oysters which were delicious, with just the right amount of cheese and spices. Chargrilled yet still tender. I had the Gulf fish with crab and I am not sure which I enjoyed the most, the fish which was perfectly prepared, or the green beans and crab underneath. This is a definite must have. My companion had the quail with greens and had the same reaction. Both plates left the table without a bite on them! We are officially in the Clean Plate Club! For dessert we enjoyed the Peppermint Patty. If you like chocolate, this is your go-to. I doubt you will walk away without your chocolate fix sated for a few days at least! Finally, they have a nice wine list and a great selection of spirits. I had the Creole Martini and will have the same on my next visit. It was spicy and well balanced. The old building has been transformed into an open and inviting area with booths, bar seating and tables in both sections. There appears to be an upstairs, which may be a private dining area. The wait staff was attentive and gracious. Valet parking made the in and out easy. Overall, a lovely evening and I cannot wait to come back. Do not skip this restaurant on your next visit downtown Memphis. read more

Ambiance is great, service is wonderful! Our server was Bri and she was personable and attentive. Food- absolutely delicious! The salmon is scrumptious! read more

We went to Felicia Suzanne for Mother's Day treat,, a day early. Ordered 3 appetizers: All 3 were a 10+. The Chow Chow Deviled Eggs surprised me. They were sooo good. Also got the GULF FISH Cornbread Crust, Fresh Lump Crab Meat, Lemon Butter Sauce. Very good and would get again....Service was excellent. Table were a little close together in main dining room. Decor is upscale. We got a tour of the entire restaurant and they have private dining rooms and outside seating for a cocktail partyy. I am so happy Felicia Suzanne is back and we will be guests on a regular basis. read more

Been to the new Felicia Suzanne's a couple times now. Love it. Menu is great. Atmosphere is spectacular. Halibut was amazing. Tenderloin also was perfect. Gotta love the Oysters of love. A great new addition to South Main. Highly recommend. read more

Went to this Restaurant about a month ago for the first time and my experience has haunted me. The owner was yelling back on the kitchen at their employees. Demeaning them. The food was fine but the experience turned my stomach. Not a place to go and relax that is for sure. I couldn't even enjoy my food and have been ruminating on it all month. Because of this I cannot recommend. read more

I truly wish I didn't have to write this, but I really just hope it is a learning experience for staff + management. My boyfriend and I had a reservation for 8pm, we showed up around 7:50. They led us to a little waiting table where they took our drink orders, but then 7:50 turned into 8:00.... then 8:10.... and by 8:20 I went to the hostess stand to ask about what was going on. It is important to note that I went to the hostess stand, they did not come to me. The explanation was that there wasn't a table available and I was offered the teeny table we were currently seated at, which is A solution, but I didn't make a reservation to be struggling for space the entire night.... I went back up at 8:30 and, still, no table. We made the decision by then to just go ahead and leave, because if we're spending $200+ on a dinner, we want to at least be seated at an actual table. Needless to say, we left quite disappointed. Running behind is one thing, and I understand that people staying past their welcome at their tables, but the lack of communication is truly upsetting for a restaurant that was just awarded a spot on a Michelin-grade list. Hoping that this reaches the right audience and that this issue doesn't happen to any other customers!! read more

The food is so delicious! I think it's even better than the former location! The service was pleasant and efficient. The ambiance is lovely! The one criticism is the bartender we had the evening we visited. Perhaps he isn't experienced and will learn. We'll be back in the next month, though! read more

Really nice spot--great food, cool vibe, and super friendly staff. Can't wait to go back!!
