The service was pretty fast. It didn't take long at all to be seated and receive food. I had the shrimp and grits. They were super flavorful and had great balance of ingredients I also tasted the fish and grits and they were good as well. The waffles are really good. They taste like funnel cakes, so if you don't want them too sweet or if you want traditional waffles don't get these...but they are worth the try! There is also a twist on there hash browns. They are topped with cheese bacon and sauce. Cool spot in the Midtown area! Love it!

I'm disappointed to update my review to two stars. I likely won't be back…read more I arrived to grab a glass of wine and relax for a little bit. The bouncer stopped me and abruptly said, "cover's $12". I paused and said, "oh, didn't know that there was a cover" "yeah, band tonight". With no one behind me waiting to get in, the bouncer again abruptly said, "well...." and pointed his hand toward the street. Meaning, that if I wasn't willing to make a decision to pay the $12 cover at that moment, he was directing me to move to the road. Wow. What an asshole. The $12 isn't an issue for me, it just caught me off guard and I needed a moment to consider if it was worth it for me, considering that I'd likely spend maybe 30-45 mins there. I reached out to the owner, Karen, and never heard back. Maybe they're shifting toward the "scrappy dive bar" scene. That's just not for me.

I know this place is not the "traditional" after work work spot, but I must say, I got a lot accomplished on my computer this day. I ordered the Corn Fritters for an appetizer that were served with a Blueberry Sauce that was to die for! I then had the Watermelon and Wings! They were wonderful also. My experience was great and now I think I can add this to my list of work spots!

ESCO has officially earned a spot at the top of my Memphis brunch list…read more From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere speaks for itself--upscale without being pretentious, energetic yet inviting. The music, décor, and overall vibe create the perfect brunch experience. Every detail feels intentional. Now let's talk about the food... As a chef, I appreciate when dishes are more than just visually appealing. ESCO delivered chef-curated recipes with thoughtful layering of flavors. Lamb Chops - Perfectly cooked with a beautifully seasoned crust and incredible tenderness. Every bite was balanced and flavorful. Smothered Potatoes with Grilled Onions & Scrambled Eggs - These weren't your average breakfast potatoes. The grilled onions added a subtle sweetness and depth that elevated the entire dish. Even the scrambled eggs were seasoned--not just cooked--which tells me the kitchen pays attention to every component on the plate. Red Velvet Waffle & Fried Chicken Wings - This was the star. The waffle was rich, incredibly moist, and topped with a luscious cream cheese drizzle that complemented the red velvet instead of overpowering it. Paired with crispy, perfectly seasoned fried wings, it was sweet, savory, and absolutely unforgettable. Pineapple Mimosa - Bright, refreshing, and perfectly balanced. Sangria - Fruit-forward, refreshing, and dangerously smooth. One of the better sangrias I've had in Memphis. A special shoutout to Alex, our server. His hospitality, menu knowledge, timing, and personality made an already amazing experience even better. Service like that deserves recognition. Overall Ratings Food: 10/10 Drinks: 10/10 Vibe: 10/10 Venue: 10/10 Service (Alex): 10/10 ESCO isn't just serving brunch--they're creating an experience. If you appreciate elevated comfort food, handcrafted cocktails, and genuine hospitality, this is a reservation you'll never regret.

I enjoyed the food, but the service was hit or miss…read more I never saw the brunch menu until after I'd ordered; I appreciated being able to change my order. The seating made eating food requiring silverware challenging, and the floor/table were both sticky. For a place that's not inexpensive, these details are important.

He was so nice and cordial. He checked on us from time to time. We started off with the honey whipped feta dip. It was very good. We also ordered the poke nachos. It was delicious! The chips were so crunchy and warm. For dinner I ordered the pistachio encrusted salmon on a Greek salad. My friends both ordered the short ribs. All of our food was very tasty! No complaints on any of our entrees. For dessert we ordered the peanut butter bread pudding. It tasted amazing! It was very moist and flavorful. We had such a wonderful time and know we will be back to try other exquisite dishes.

Cameo hands down is the best place to get drinks & don't count out their bar food…read more Me and my girls decided to do All Day Happy Hour which are on Monday and it didn't miss. The service was great and the drinks were even better. We tried the Mai Tai, porn star martini , frosted Jake to name a few. The star of the show for me was the Frosted Jake. It was very refreshing surprisedly. And a huge shoutout to our bartender - I believe her name was Max!!!! Keep her on board. She is everything and so nice. Don't miss this spot at all.

I hate writing this because I really like this spot, but people should double-check their bill…read more I came in last night and ordered the Ube drink. According to the menu, it's listed at $14, but my card was charged $20.54 before I even added a 20% tip. I attached screenshots of the menu, and my bank statement for reference. I understand mistakes happen, but being charged over $6 more than the listed menu price is unacceptable, especially when the bar wasn't busy. I was really disappointed because I've enjoyed coming here, but it's hard to keep supporting a local business if I can't trust that I'll be charged correctly. Hopefully this was just an honest mistake, but I'd recommend everyone check their receipt before paying!

There is a little bit of natural light that comes in if you are near a window. Their menu is sort of small with some salads, sandwiches, burgers and a few plates. They have a lunch special which is a pretty good deal for only $15.95. They have some good looking eggrolls and are sort of known for their cheeseburger soup. I was in the mood for fish and they offered it 3 different ways. I tried the blackened catfish plate with steamed veggies and twice baked potato with an unsweet tea. My colleagues also all had catfish (but fried) and one of my clients had the meatloaf special. Everything was really good, but I was starving afterwards. The best item was the catfish, it was plump and juicy and well seasoned. The veggies were mushy, twice baked was decent but mainly because of the cheese layer. The hush puppies are standard ones. The fish also comes with a small cold slaw.

Next time, I definitely plan to dine in and enjoy the full atmosphere.
