    Cheese slice
    Morgan C.

    Whenever we need a quick bite, that we know is going to be good, feed the kids and is close to anything in midtown, it's going to be MPC. You know how you just have a drink or a menu item that you know you're going to order at specific restaurants? Well mine ag MPC is a half Hawaiian salad and a slice of bbq chicken pizza. It slaps Every. Single. Time. HOWEVER MPC WHHHYYYY did you forget the mozzarella cheese on my salad it's literally my favorite part (insert chef hand gesture here) It's the only reason I can't score 5 stars for our visit. Even the ranch is out of this world, and in such a Hidden Valley / Kens Ranch Era, you simply cannot underestimate the value of a good homemade ranch like the one at MPC. We sat on the patio, the fans didn't really do much but it was not too hot out. I think I'd rather actually have sit inside because the vibe is vibing in there, but we had a good time and good food. I'll just be expecting extra cheese on my salad next time! Our waitress was HUSTLING honey. She was literally running from table to table. Hopefully more staff showed up to give her a break!

    Placed and order over the phone for pickup and the order accidentally got lost. I could tell they were busy when I ordered, and didn't mind the wait when they offered to make it once I arrived. They comped my food without me even asking and were very polite about the situation. Food is delish and the decor is very nice! Would go back. :)

    Each year for Valentines, my family and I try a different pizza place that we haven't tried. This is pretty neat spot located in the heart of Midtown serving up pizza in their own unique way. We had 4 types of pizza including pepperoni, beef, Buffalo chicken, and all of the meats! They were all tasty and served on thin crust. So, if you are a pizza lover who likes a different kind of pizza, lost of sauce, and tones of cheese, this is not the place for you. But, trust me you will enjoy it. The cheese sticks are the same way. The space is super cool and chill. The staff were all friendly and accommodating. They took care of our large part with ease. If you're in the neighborhood be sure to stop by!

    Must admit, we have been coming here for atleast 15 years. This is for sure some of the best pizza in memphis. They have a very unique, thin, cracker like Roman crust. They have some excellent flavor combos. Our family usually goes with the basics but we mix it up occasional. They do a decent Greek and garden salad. They have the absolute best ranch. This location ebbs and flows as far as service goes but the quality of your food is pretty consistent. You can also order pizza by the slice, if you want to try a couple of different flavor options without committing to a full pizza. They offer some local beers, seltzers and wine.

    I simply love Memphis pizza cafe, i eat here on a fairly consistent basis and the food is always hot, fresh and delicious. Pizzas look amazing and are roasted to a point to where the crust is both crisp and chewy, vegetables and other other toppings burst with flavor, atmosphere always lends itself to a light metro downtown feel, i always feel "chic and very cool" when i eat here, awesome spot!!

    Food: 7/10. Cafe Supreme! Delicious, too light on the sauce but tasty!(personal preference) Service: 6.5/10 Environment: DUSTY!DUSTY!DUSTY! I attached some photos. I hope this review resolves the dust issue. I intend to come back and enjoy more pizza. But not with the amount of dust I saw today! (SUNDAY 08/04)

    Fantastic pizza. The service was awesome and the atmosphere is classic Memphis. Definitely will be back

    This place was pretty good. We ordered to go and pizza was great! Service when we walked through the door was excellent! Pizza is on the thinner side but still very good! The kitchen staff was a vibe! They listened to music and laughed while working! It was a great!

    Pizzas were good, I tried three slices: veggie, Buffalo chicken and Barbecue chicken, all thin crust. It was alright, but frankly I was not impressed. The best part of dinner was the patio; overlooking Overton square, there was an amateur theater company performing a classic Shakespeare play, a dinner & a show! The restaurant interior was also cozy and inviting. I would actually return and try other items on their menu.

Slim is a smaller pizza and husky is a larger size). My pizza came out hot and fresh. Sauce to meat and cheese ration was great. I really did like the pizza. Now I am a cinnamon roll aficionado. So there was a high standard to meet here. Unfortunately, they fell very short with the cinnamon roll. It was not fresh and seemed to have been microwaved. It was hard on top and gummy throughout. I asked for a different one. One that was fresh. They were happy to accommodate. Unfortunately, the fresher one was the same way. So the cinnamon roll was a 1 out of 10. But, the pizza was an 8.5 out of 10. Go for the pizza....

For the love of God this was incredible. The wings were juicy as well as nicely crispy. The flavors, now here's where they hit. There was a honey mustard, wingman, lemon pepper and a type of jerk curry. Well let's say this, I NEVER dipped. Not once. The seasoning on every one of these was magnificent. The curry was my favorite. It had a unique flavor with a kick. Best wings Ever!!! The place earns its name. We also had the rolls which were spicy and flavorful. Wouldn't pass on those either. This place deserves more than 5 stars. If you're looking for fried chicken or wings DON'T MISS this place. I am ruined now, because I will forever want this food every time I want fried chicken. Damn that chicken sandwich...damn you!!! lol

We asked the concierge and she suggested two options of coffee shop and chess club. My granddaughter decided on chess club. When you first walked in the door, it's a nice cozy, rustic floor, wooden floor, and nice artifacts everywhere and the tables were amazing cause they were designed for chess players. There were some nice sitting comfort chairs and everything looked very historic like the Memphis area. They had an array of sandwiches and salads and pizza and coffees and desserts with the cookies and the brownies. If you just want to curl up and read a good book and have a snack, this is the best place. The service was fantastic.
