Everything felt super fresh, and the prices was pretty fair too. I picked up some homemade jam and a couple bundles of collards that was way fresher than what I usually find at the grocery store. The folks working there was friendly and seemed happy to answer questions. I do wish there were a few more shaded areas to sit and enjoy a snack or something, but over all it was a great experience. You can really tell they care about supporting local farmers and the community. I'll def be coming back again soon!

This is the best place to get fresh fruit and veggies.

I really appreciate how they help you choose a good melon and will tell you where the food came from if you ask. I also saw a new beverage vendor, I'll check her out next time. It's always a friendly place to visit. The flowers were beautiful.

My wife and I took our son to celebrate his graduation from the University of Memphis. Amelia…read moreGene's is his favorite restaurant and he has been a few times to celebrate other special occasions. This was the first visit for my wife and I but it will not be the last. Kelsie Nicholson was our server, who my son commented was "his favorite" based on past experiences. Kelsie was knowledgeable about all aspects of the menu and paid attention to our allergy restrictions. She was also helpful in navigating the tasty options for all five courses of our meal with thoughtful suggestions and great advice. The vibe of the restaurant was special and timeless but not dated. The mood was lively with a nice selection of low volume but energetic music played on the speaker system. The biscuits were excellent, my son's Blackberry Oysters were perfect, the cheese cart was an adventure and the desserts were incredible! Roasted Duck, Short Rib and Filet were our entrees and we also had a Raviolo and Lumache for our pasta course. Five stars all the way around for this fantastic experience! Inhale Peace, Exhale Love Hu!

THE FOOD & WINE At $65 for a 5-course Chef's Tasting Menu and $35 for the wine pairing, it is a good value. We started with a tasty carrot coriander amuse-bouche from Chef Nate, followed by: * Georges Banks Scallops: Served with tomato gelatin, cured kiwi, and crema. Paired well with a crisp New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. * Sweet Potato Tamale: Topped with spiced mayo, avocado crema, and charred cabbage. The spicy jalapeños and radishes added a bright kick that paired nicely with a blush-colored, floral Pinot Grigio. * Elysian Fields Lamb Cubano: A rich, complex dish featuring lamb shoulder and a fantastic touch of lamb heart (marinated for a week in adobo). Fresh arugula and pickles offset the richness, and the toasted focaccia was an amazing match. Paired with a medium-bodied Grenache that cut through the rich flavors. * Acadian Redfish: Charcoal-grilled with a creamy crawfish hollandaise and light-bodied potato crisps. This is the chef's elevated take on his mother's fish and chips, and it had a nice balance of oil and salt. * Dessert: Finished with a strawberry ice cream terrine and a decadent six-layer carrot cake that was moist, intense, and packed with pistachio crème. * We had a robust 2015 St. Emilion with a medium/heavy body, nice tannins, and age! THE SERVICE * The service was highly attentive, friendly, and earns a solid 4 stars. Sam, the sommelier, was knowledgeable and shared his insights on the pairings (he noted the 3rd and 4th courses were his personal favorites). Special thanks to Daisy for helping us with our first visit, walking us through the tasting courses, and recommending local places. * Because the restaurant ambitiously rotates its tasting menu every 2-3 weeks, it is harder for the staff to keep on top of the tasting menu details (compared to their regular menu items). OVERALL Overall, a fantastic 4-star experience. The culinary creativity and the beautiful dining room make it highly recommended!

IT'S STRAWBERRY SEASON! Haven't gone out picking in years so grabbed the chance to do so today! If…read morethey're your fruit of choice also, you're reading this just in time. I think they'll be prime ripe over the next few days. Go grab yourself some! It's not so cheap as it was years ago (is anything?) - we picked 3 of their baskets for about $55. But you can be much more selective than going through those half-green quarts from Florida in your grocery store. We look forward to good, healthy eating and some shortcake and freezer jam. While you're there try the strawberry slush - the most strawberry thing you'll ever tase, for about $6. They also have a big selection of preserves, jams, etc
