Went there for my g.f.'s birthday and have to say, the food was really dissapointing. The service was excellent. Our waitress was attentive and was pretty much there everytime we needed something. Now the bad part: 1.) The inside is extremely crammed. The restaurant was packed and it felt like people were breathing down my neck. The tables near us... more

My wife and I went to Erling Jensen for our 7th anniversary. The place is tiny and unassuming on the outside, but once inside the ambiance is superb. The lighting and decor, and well and the music (Billie Holiday, Sinatra, and the like singing standards), make for romantic surroundings. The server, Don, was friendly and professional, and made us feel... more

Six of us went there for my son's 16th birthday. The service and food could not have been better. I am never disappointed with this establishment and it is easily the class of the city of Memphis. Nothing else compares. more

Erling Jensen is the one of the finest restaurants In the city of Memphis if not the best. Service was timely and courteous. The food was fresh, flavorful, unique and interesting. The Mero Bass and Black Flounder are spectacular. A huge wine list for all tastes and budgets. Dessert offerings are original and beautifully presented. This restaurant is excellent for... more

My husband and I had dinner at Erling Jensen during our visit to Memphis. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was impeccable (very attentive without being overbearing or interrupting). The marscapone-blueberry cobbler was to die for, and the little complimentary bites (flash-fried edamame for appetizer and a dessert sampler with chocolate mousse, lemon cake, and sesame cookies) were... more

I lived in Memphis for four years, and while there are great restaurants all all over Memphis there is NOTHING like Erling Jensen. The service is always incredible, I've been in to the restaraunt on many occasions when it was booked and was always made to feel like my fiance and I were the only ones there. We make it... more
