I have been wanting to try The Butcher Shop Restaurant since I arrived in Memphis, as I've passed it a number of times. The outside looks a bit dated and old‑fashioned, but the inside gives true fine‑dining steakhouse establishment vibes, and I must say their steaks do not disappoint. I highly recommend the 20‑ounce ribeye, and I also highly recommend this place for a night out on the town or for any celebratory occasion. I look forward to visiting this place again and again and again. Don't walk, run here for a visit. You will not be disappointed. read more

Hubby and I had been wanting to eat here for a while and finally were able to go over the weekend. We tried the crab cakes, stuffed mushrooms, wedge salad, the ribeye and the NY strip. The crab cakes were delicious! The rest was nice but definitely not worth the price. Our server was wonderful and the overall ambience was okay. read more

I am so sad that I did not get pictures because I was too busy stuffing my face! The butcher shop is excellent for big groups! We had a group of eight, and this quiet unassuming restaurant was quite affordable. The steak is fantastic! Get the steak! Everyone else enjoyed their food as well. Our waitress was attentive and personable. I enjoyed the old-fashioned and my husband also had one of their specialty whiskey-based drinks. We will certainly be back. read more

Once again folks, The Butcher Shop Steakhouse doesn't fail. The food was cooked to perfection, the place is nice and cozy, but our favorite server Andy Soto was there for us tonight and he never disappoints. Everything from the moment we walked in to when we left was top notch. I highly recommend this place for an incredible meal along with amazing service. Side note: even when Andy was helping another table 2 other amazing people stepped in and they were fabulous as well, even the hostess was super sweet. I LOVE THIS PLACE! read more

What a delightful meal! I enjoyed the chicken pasta, spouse had steak. Both were absolutely delicious! We finished with crème brûlée, also incredible. This is a very nice steakhouse with wonderful staff. Will definitely be back. read more

Had a great dinner but likely will never come back because of the management. I was accused of not paying my bill when I did and left the signed copy on the table. Also, was able to show the charge on my bank app. The manager kept saying I wasn't leaving without paying.... I did pay. He said this multiple times in the front gathering area where other customers could hear. He doesn't know how to speak to a customer, let alone a woman. And accusing me of not paying is unacceptable when I have proof! Very rude, very inappropriate. For this reason, this restaurant has lost future customers. read more

We had a workshop here in one of the party rooms, and it was really nice! The restaurant is spacious and clean with good lighting. There are several areas for seating, and also a patio area. We stopped by the bar and got lemon drops, and they were well balanced. The presentation came with a prix fixe menu that included salad, appetizers for the table, a main course, and dessert. The shrimp were excellent. They were tender and flavorful without being overpowering. I was expecting a little more from the steak, as it was under seasoned, but the potatoes were really good. The dessert was given to us to go, and the dessert was fine. This is a nice place for a night without the kids, celebrations, and the party rooms have plenty of space. read more

Great service, delicious steak, and very reasonable prices for what you get. Casual but nice. Don't be snooty - give it a try.

We live very close by to the Butcher Shop, but had never been till last weekend. Honestly, I just had never heard anything about it, and since we aren't big meat eaters, it just avoided our notice. The first thing I noticed upon entry is that it has a pretty classy decor. I can see this being a special occasion restaurant, though they don't allow balloons or singing in the dining room ( a positive in my book!). The service is also something special. The servers are very attentive without being intrusive, and they are dressed nicely in fresh vests and ties. I really did not expect that at all, so was pleasantly surprised. We started our meal with spinach artichoke dip, a solid offering. Our only small disappointment was when the salads were served, they were drowning in dressing. The sauces and dressings are all made in house (and completely delicious), but some restraint needs to be used on the quantities. Our server quickly whisked them away and brought fresh salads with dressing on the side. For entrees, my husband chose the 14 ounce ribeye. It was very generous and he said it was done perfectly. I had the crab stuffed shrimp. I enjoyed it, but would have preferred it broiled rather than fried. I have never liked tartar sauce, but theirs is made in house, and unlike anything I've tried. I know it's odd to comment on tartar sauce, but it's just that good! Gratuity is included in the bill, but they are not sneaky about it the way I feel some places are. No, right there on the gratuity line is printed "included". We enjoyed our evening there very much and will certainly return. read more

This review is only for the Friday burger day lunch special for The Butcher Shop Steakhouse. On Fridays only,this restaurant has a burger lunch special off which they take their steaks from the week and grind the meat and make steak burgers. I have been coming to this lunch special multiple times in the past years. It is always good. Currently the hamburgers/cheeseburgers are $11. They also have grilled salmon and catfish as well as bratwurst. Buns, lettuce, onions, tomatoes, pickles are provided. Condiments are available. The cost also includes a bag of chips. Fries and tater tots are an extra purchase. Drinks are also extra. The burgers are probably around 1/3 lb. and grilled on an opened flame. The meat is juicy and typically cooked to doneness of around medium to medium well. The ambiance is noisy but par for most lunches that have a lot of folks gathered. Plenty of seating areas including an outdoor patio. Service is attentive. read more

The Butcher Shop Steakhouse - Cheeseburger with fries and a bag of chips. - Steakhouses Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Lovely old dark steakhouse vibe, provided a classic dining ambiance. Meals were very good, and service was competent and friendly.

I think this used to be a steakhouse that people raved about back in the day, but the quality has gone down in recent years. Came for dinner on a weekend. The ambience was o-k. Dim lit and quiet, but the place was pretty empty, even for a Sunday evening. Our waiter took forever to make periodic checks and also forgot to bring one of drinks and one of our appetizers. He seemed annoyed to be at work that night. Everyone at my table ordered a steak. My NY strip was supposed to be medium but it was more on the medium well side and it was pretty tough. There was nothing special or memorable about our time. If I wanna go to a local steakhouse I'll pick something else. read more

I love the ambience of the restaurant. Nice dimmed lighting. The waiter I had was pretty nice although he did mess up one of my desserts to go. However, they allowed me to replace the dessert the next day. I enjoyed most of the food. The salad was really fresh, and the steak tasted really amazing. The apple pie could had been more sweeter. However, their ice cream tasted divine. Overall, I would return here again. read more

I went here yesterday the food was terrible for my check to be 400 I sent my food back three times all because they couldn't get the temperature right on my steak and then the manager had the nerve to come out and make racist on how I don't need to have my stark tough and dry.. by the way my waitress Bria was great but the manager and the food was horrible read more

Yes, the food was excellent especially the 20 ounce Ribeye. The service was top of the line. Our servers were attentive and really want us to have a great experience. The decor and ambiance of the restaurant was top of the line. I really enjoyed myself with the other co-workers. read more

We held a party for 20 at the Butcher Shop. Overall, it's a great experience, for a private room there's a $150 deposit and the accommodations are nice. The waiter was excellent and very attentive. But ALL of the bar drinks SUCKED! I do mean they were horrible! Stick to wine or beer. The food was hot and came out in a timely manner but the taste was just ok! Mediocre at best. All in all, the Butcher Shop is a great place to host a party with a private room but don't set high expectations for food and drinks ‍ read more

We so excited to get a good steak. What a bummer!! I ordered fillet medium well and it was rare and the taste was bad!! Just tasted like raw meet. We are from out of town so in a hurry before our long drive. So no time to send it back plus I hate doing that. Just disappointed. read more

Recently, we read that this Butcher Blocker location was one of the Best Steak Houses in TN. So, we headed there for a date night dinner. We had high expectations of enjoying a great steak dinner. However, we were very upset and left before dining because this restaurant adds a 20% tip to your TOTAL Bill!!! Tipping does not bother me. Consistently, I tip 15% on food and drinks when the Server does an adequate job and 20-25% when they really do a good job. But, I NEVER tip on taxes; especial now that some Memphis restaurants are adding a 15% LTD (liquor by the drink) tax. read more

Great salad, great service and a decent steak. Really cool ambience with the grill out in the open where you can see the open flame.

Delicious, I have 2 admit we've only had lunch here. I mean for YEARS, we ate here every Friday for lunch. We were originally having dinner in Southaven for a family birthday dinner, the place couldn't accommodate so, my husband and I called and was told. It was busy and they were no longer accepting reservations but she had 2 openings 6:15 n 7:30. We made it, it was crowded and after the reservations were seated, we got our 6:15 slot. The food was absolutely delicious. My salmon was excellent, very moist. I poured sum melted butter n lemon on top. But thats just how I prefer my salmon, it was seasoned to perfection. Very flavorful, char flavor black pepper n rough salt, man!! Hubz steak was grilled medium and no steak sauce was used nor needed during this dining experience..N the dinstil cheesecake is 1 of my fav desserts in the city.. say less read more

They serve artichoke dip with Mexican chips and it's a steakhouse, I was expecting some bread and when we asked to replace chips with bread they got mad. We also open a blind a bit because it was super dark and we got asked to close it. Server was a bit rude and never friendly. read more

Fresh burger Friday was a hit. When you walk in it's set up for you to get your buns and fixings for a freshly cooked steak burger, you seat yourself after. My suggestion would be to find seating then get in the food line, it was super busy at 1120 and they had just opened at 11am lol. No complaints, food and service was good, burger was fresh, tender and seasoned, all of the fixings were crisp and fresh oh and for 2 with a side of fries and water to drink the cost was only $29 which is a steal, try this!! read more

Well I'm sorry to report that this has been our third visit with sub par experience. The steaks used to be excellent and the service fine. However, they have become just below average and not worth the cost. Expect to wait even if you have a reservation and they are half full. Almost comical but really just sad . read more

The ambiance, the staff, the items on the menu, the service, and the value for money call for a five-star rating. read more

We had the very best dinner. The food was lovely but the waiter was beyond good. He was always present but not obtrusive. We were chatting wildly and he would pop up with water, bread, whatever we needed without even know needed it. I don't remember being served this professionally in such a long time. When you go - ask for David. It will be worth it! read more

Great,Great,Great. Very pleased with this place. Great food, very nice staff, clean comfortable dining. ..........

Mediocre food and rushed service Rushed service is probably my biggest gripe. We had just started on our appetizer when our salads showed up. We were still eating our salads when our entrees showed up. The waitress literally stood there at my elbow holding my steak while I was taking bites from my salad. The steaks looked better than they tasted. My ribeye was tough and chewy like it had not been tenderized enough. My wife's Hawaiian Rib Eye was Hawaiian, I guess, because they put a slice of pineapple on it. It did not taste like it had been marinated at all. Then when got the check we saw that they were kind of enough to have already include a 20% tip. I will not be back and I encourage you to skip it. Flemings has far better food and service. read more

It was our first time dining at the restaurant & it was a great experience! We had to sit in the bar area because we didn't have a reservation, but our waitress, Sophie, was truly wonderful! The food came exactly how we ordered it. My husband's steak was cooked perfectly, & my Cajun pasta was very good! The other 2 people with us enjoyed their food as well. We're looking forward to going there again for dinner. read more

I've been thinking about trying this spot for about 5yrs now. We came here after another restaurant had a 45min wait. So we came in & were greeted/seated promptly. We ordered drinks & food. My initial drink a French 75 was sent back because it was flat & not good. I then requested a lemon drop martini which was slightly better. Food, we ordered a bone in NY strip med rare, w/a loaded baked potato and a salad. Also a ribeye well done with baked potato & salad. My strip came out medium & it was a nice thick cut of meat, but seemed a little tough. His ribeye looked skimpy, and not appealing to me, but he enjoyed it. About 15yrs ago there was a Butchers shop in Chicago and I thought this place was the same, now that I've tried this maybe it was, but my expectations weren't met here. read more

service was pretty good but the food was almost inedible. steak had no seasoning. had to cover with salt and pepper. and although it was cooked to an acceptable medium rare (per request), it was tough and very chewy. my boyfriends sweet potato was rotten. not burnt. it was rotten. tasted like chemicals. absolutely disgusting. the manager was great but ultimately, this is judged based off food and it couldn't have been worse. happy valentines dinner to us. read more

BEWARE If you have an allergy! I have a garlic allergy and the server Tony did not care and was not knowledgeable.First I ordered a salad with meal and explained my allergy, He informed me that dressings don't contain garlic. B.S. Very few don't he never checked. I then asked if steaks were seasoned with garlic and told No. after eating I was extremely ill due to an allergic reaction. TRAIN YOUR STAFF! read more

I have eaten at The Butcher Shop several times, and each time my food has been good. The ambiance is very cozy and nice. It is appropriate for a ladies/gentleman's night, happy hour, lunch, and more. About the food, My salad was delicious and fresh. All of the ingredients were properly blended and the children was juicy and tender. So, I wanted to try a drink and the drink they recommended was so good! It was a nice blend of ice cream, cinnamon, and liquor. The price was reasonable too. Give them a try! read more

Will it start off with butcher is the right word for the shop they butchered my Visa card for a piece of steak it was unbelievably unfavorable I mean who the hell I got cooking back there. Andrew, the bartender, holy shit balls someone get this man a job digging ditches he has no business waiting tables or bartending whatsoever. The portion was sick. I ordered it rare plus it came out seared on both sides and so damn dark. I couldn't eat it I paid for it they had a 20% of the top of everything they wanted to go ahead and add an additional bullshit tip. Can't believe it do not go to the butcher shop or whatever you do. Thank you have a great day. read more

This place is the best food, pie desserts service!! It's amazing quality and excellent people! Enjoy your visit!!

Halloween night out. Wow what a steak!!! Warmly and gladly greeted as soon as we walked in the door. So nice to have the staff be happy to see you. Sat out on the side patio. Was a lovely night and the temperature was perfect. A little bit of heat from the outdoor heaters made it just perfect. Andrew was our main server with Stephen pitching in when ever needed. These two guys made it a very enjoyable night out. The wife had the filet and I had my usual... the T-Bone. Both were cooked to perfection and had the Cajun butter added to the top. Wow what a meal!!! Fresh bread, awesome crab cake appetizer and a nice garden salad. Y'all must bring back the Greek salad though. It was truly missed. Creme brule for desert and all I needed after that was a pillow. I really enjoy going to the butcher shop for a really good steak. Don't think I've ever had a bad one. Also my wife always wants her steak cooked like a piece of shoe leather (NO PINK) and they never disappoint. Always clean bathrooms and all staff was masked up so no worries there. Eat local. It's worth it. read more

Show up at 7:05 on Fathers Day for dinner with my daughter & her new fiancé and was immediately told they closed at 7 pm !!! Manager was a real jerk in how he said it, acted like he could care less & proceeded to tell me how all of his cooks had worked since 10 am without a break( LABOR LAW VIOLATION). We walked out in utter disbelief at his demeanor towards us. My daughter had checked the hours on their website BEFORE we went & it said 8pm was closing time & even on the business hours on the front of the restaurant said 8 pm closing time. So I went back in frustrated to tell them to change their posted hours but manager couldn't even come back to speak with so I told the waiter that they should update their hours & this little jerk said that we could go to McDonald's!!!!!! LAST TIME I EVER TRY TO GO TO THIS PLACE !!! IF YOU WANT GREAT FRIENDLY SERVICE THEN GO SOMEWHERE ELSE BECAUSE THE BUTCHER SHOP IS HORRIBLE IN THAT DEPARTMENT & the sad part is they USED TO BE REALLY GOOD ! What a shame read more

I cannot express how disappointed I am in my visit here tonight. My wife and I have ordered to go from here regularly since the pandemic started. We have spent thousands of dollars here, and at other restaurants, in order to help the industry during these trying times. Tonight I decided to dine in for the first time in two years because my father came in for a visit from Arizona. I have to say I was a little disappointed in the service, but not so much to make an issue of it. The server was slow, failed to bring the bread, actually served extremely burnt twice baked potatoes au gratin and delivered the check before even delivering the desert. I don't completely blame the server on the potatoes, but when I was in the food industry, I never would have taken those to a table. Two of the three were almost black. Now, here where everything went even worse. When the check came we noticed that they added an automatic gratuity of 20%. Now, I am a very good tipper and regularly tip at least 20% and usually more, but that should be up to me and how good the service was. When I tried to discuss this with the manager, he acted as if I should be grateful that they even served us and that they automatically deserve 20% gratuity no matter how bad the service was. This manager has lost me forever as a customer and I will never even have another business lunch at this establishment. read more

Ugghh... I can't believe it! Went here for my father in law's birthday dinner. I don't even want to talk about it! So expensive, which we already knew, but bang for your buck....... nah. They both got steaks and loaded potatoes. FiL loved his. My husband's steak came with a lot of gristle... he later told me he wasn't impressed. I felt bad about the prices so I went against my best judgment and ordered the chicken fettuccine Alfredo... slow blinks... it was good until i noticed the pool of grease at the bottom. Kept eating it though because I was hungry. Went home and immediately regretted everything! Stomach was hurting all night, could not sleep, felt miserable! Ended up puking the next morning. Gross. $28 literally down the toilet! Total bill was about $150, husband says he'd rather gone to outback steakhouse.. lol. Stick to the steaks if you can afford 'em! Geez read more
