    We had a wonderful experience. Our server was excellent. She was very friendly and attentive. She made excellent suggestions. Our meal was awesome. The filet was cooked perfectly. The shrimp and grits were excellent. The Cajun pasta was flavorful and delicious. The Cajun shrimp with Abita beer bread was incredible. We finished up with bread pudding and creme brulee. Both were very good. Highly recommend this restaurant.

    This was our second time going to Ronnie's. From the service, to the food, I'd prefer to come here for each date night instead of going to the more high priced, crappy service restaurants in Memphis.

    If you are going to Memphis, do you definitely need to visit B.B. King’s restaurant. We were there on a Friday evening around 5 PM and were able to catch the band Memphis Jones. They were outstanding!! We shared a plate of nachos with pork and had a couple cold beverages, and it couldn’t have been any better.

    It was cool. Cajun chicken paste wasn't worth $26 for the very small portion you get. The taste was a tad bit above average but nothing to brag about. Love the location and might recommend it to others.
