We recently became empty nesters and have decided to try one new restaurant each weekend. This…read moreweekend we ended up at Bog & Barley and it did NOT disappoint. The restaurant has a really neat vibe and is decorated better than most of the restaurants in the memphis area. We came at 5:00 on a Saturday night and we were seated immediately without reservations, but when we left, they did have a small wait to get a table. We started with the pimento cheese toastie which was garlic bread with melty pimento cheese on top. We both really enjoyed it. I decided on the filet with peppercorn sauce. I asked for it it to be butterflied. My steak was cooked to perfection with the perfect amount of pink and it sliced like butter. I got the peppercorn sauce on the side and used it for a dipping sauce. I really liked the sauce, but it is really peppery. While I loved it, some might find it a little spicy. My husband had the bourbon glazed porterhouse pork chop. His was cooked perfectly fly as well and was super tender. He really enjoyed it, but mentioned that the sauce did have something in it that gave it a little spice. We shared an order of rosemary duck fat fries as the entrees come à la cart with no sides. The fries re heavy on rosemary which my husband didn't care for. I enjoyed them, but they were definitely not my favorite. Neither of us cared for the mayo sauce that they came with and preferred to eat them with ketchup. Overall it was a great experience and we will definitely be back!

The service was fantastic. Some appears to be rush or don't want to be bothered. But overall, they…read moreare very good. Fanatic decore, and ambiance. It is a good place to go to socialize. Unfortunately, the food has been consistently underwhelming during my recent visits. I first ordered the lamb chops. They were not what I would consider traditional lamb chops and were surprisingly chewy and difficult to enjoy. I returned and decided to try the Irish Curry Chicken. It was, without exaggeration, one of the worst dishes I've had there. The menu described it as chicken thigh, but it was clearly chicken breast. The dish lacked basic seasoning and flavor. There was very little salt, umami, or curry flavor. The rice was wet, overcooked, and mushy. Overall, the entire meal tasted like something taken from a grocery store freezer section and reheated. At this point, I would recommend sticking to the fries and the burgers, which remain the strongest items on the menu.

you're looking for an authentic live music experience, Neil's Music Room absolutely delivers. From…read morethe moment the band hit the stage, the energy in the room was electric. The musicians were incredibly talented, keeping the crowd engaged with an outstanding mix of music that had people singing along, dancing, and simply enjoying the moment. The atmosphere is relaxed, welcoming, and full of personality--exactly what you'd hope for from a true music venue. Whether you're there for a date night, hanging out with friends, or just looking to unwind after a long week, the vibe makes it easy to settle in and enjoy yourself. I ordered the Long Island Iced Tea, and it did not disappoint. It was well-balanced, smooth, and packed just enough punch without tasting overly sweet or overly strong. A quality cocktail that complemented the evening perfectly. Although I didn't try the food on this visit, the live entertainment, lively crowd, and excellent drinks were more than enough to make it a memorable night. If you appreciate live bands, a fun atmosphere, and well-crafted cocktails, Neil's Music Room is definitely worth adding to your list. I'll certainly be back to enjoy another show--and next time, I'll be trying the food.

Time to update…read more... I am breaking up with you for good if this keeps happening, Neil. I try to be cool with the Fat Man, who rocks, but it's getting increasingly more difficult. You don't even speak to me any more. Hobbling around like "The Penguin" and shit, all sully and frank. This time he is sitting with the old guy group by the bar. A guy says he's not paying for his burger because it is too small for the money. Neil tells to the bar lady "you tell them to save that burger and the next one comes in, use it!" Gross. This also leads me to believe my food was leftover from last week. More on that in just a bit... The place is just flat nasty in the front. Grease, dust, dirt, and grime. I would hate to see what the kitchen looks like. The only reason I still come here is to reminisce about my Dad. He and his friends loved this place. They have a chicken liver lunch special on Wednesdays that we used to hit up together. I have always loved the burger here although it's been years since I had it. Never will again bow. Service is usually ok as there are more mature type folk working here for the most part. The bartender lady with the spiked blonde hair is nice in her own way. Not the case this last time though. I had a newbie server it seemed. My last visit sucked really bad. My last three visits before that, sucked moderately bad. I can take the moderate piece, but won't stand the shit I got last time. I get the same thing every time these days. Fried chicken livers with white beans, corn, and cornbread. This is one of the lunch specials on Wednesday. They only have the livers once a week. The beans are served once a week, and the corn is on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Why do I mention this? When I came last time, the veggies I was served were leftover from being cooked before. No doubt about this. No way they weren't. It was 11:45 so there is no way it say out long enough to get this old. So, I do believe that I was served last week's leftovers. To add to insult, they were cold. The livers and the butter were the only things hot. Look at the pic from this last visit and look at the history of my plates here. You can watch the quality degrade. I would have complained had the new girl given a shit enough to ask how I liked the food I had one bite of. She just walked up and asked if I was ready to pay. I was ready to leave, that's for sure. Left everything but the livers. You have exactly one more chance Neil... '26 - 78

The…read morewaitress insisted she had told them no pickles and had it written down so it wasn't an issue with her not being able to hear me when I ordered- it was LOUD in the outside patio, which was not my choice because of the flies, but they were renovating inside at the time. I didn't want them to make it a third time because it took so long to remake it originally that everyone else had already eaten and my wife had shared hers. When I did eat it, the burger was dry. I asked for medium but you couldn't see any red to it like you should for medium. Pretzel bread didn't have a taste to it and I expected it to taste different. I've had better burgers at fast food places. I was able to eat the tater tots while waiting for the burger. They were not good. They were either overly salted or oil they were being fried in needed to be replaced. They were crunchy all throughout instead of just the outer crust. Maybe the oil was the wrong temp or they were just overcooked.

Mash was fine a bit starchy and heavy but well seasoned. A few tablespoons of butter or cream would have made them perfect. A nice yeast roll on the side. Service is decent not super fast but nice Only downside is the smoking inside. I don't like that otherwise very good

There's nothing like eating a grilled chicken salad dry. Funny thing is, all the people who ordered a salad were in the restroom within the hour with diarrhea. I had the fish and chips. They left out the malt vinegar I requested. Soggy fries were in the same container and we received a roll and a piece of cornbread nobody ordered. Just a total lack of incompetence once more. If this is considered a "neighborhood" restaurant, there's no wonder for sale signs are all in the area. They really need to pay more attention to to-go orders especially when they are getting gratuity. I had to explain to the millennial who picked up our food what Joe Pesci said in "Lethal Weapon 2" in regard about the drive-thru. Needless to say, he never heard of Joe Pesci or "Lethal Weapon." Anyway, Patrick's justs needs to do a better job all around. Everyone else thought their food wasn't fresh. Nothing spectacular. It's a shame they closed Piccadilly down the street because I would have much rather had that instead.

I enjoyed!

Bobcat also serves pizza in your standard varieties plus a BBQ or bacon version. A great place to chill and hang out with other sports fans, I'm glad I found Bobcat.

We also shared some garlic bread, which I didn't care for. If you like garlic bread with a slab of cheese in the middle, their garlic bread is for you. Memphis has some really good Italian restaurants so the competition is high. Cocozza needs to up their game. On the total negative side, the place was LOUD! We couldn't hear ourselves. This place really needs to hire an acoustical engineer. It ruined the ambiance. I may go back but only if the other Italian restaurants are full.
