5.0 of 5 stars. Let me first insert a caveat, I'm not from Memphis. However I was recently there for a business conference (don't ask) and had the pleasure of having my company pay for my meal here. The Butcher Shop...

Butcher Shop is one of those places that my mind doesnt automatically jump to when we're heading out for a steak. Usually its between Ruths Chris and Folks Folly (and Ruths Chris usually wins - they have...

Big Disappointment

Arrived and was quickly seated. Ordered beer and soft drink. Informed by surly manager that one grill was down and that no customer steak preparation on the other grill was possible. Left.

Did not meet the expectations

The staff is friendly and they sit you promply but the food is not that great. they give you a choice to cook your own steak or have it cook by the chef (cooking my steak, is't that why I went out to eat in...

Great deal for the $$$

My gf and I could have eaten the spin dip and cajun shrimp alone and been happy, but our filets were too good to ignore. This place has Folk's and R. Chris beat hands down. It's just a good, basic steakhouse...

I have lived here all my life and finally went here - it was an awesome experience. The atmosphere is warm and inviting; the staff was attentive but not overwhelming. We sat near the grill and got to watch...

The Best Ever!

I have visited Memphis three times, and eaten at both locations. Each time, I've ordered the 14 oz. Filet, eaten every delicious bite, and have yet to pick up a steak knife. It's that tender! I've had far less...

Good fro two

I wouldn't take the entire family, but it would be good for a night out on the town. Could get pricey. The service was good, but it is extremely noisey and you do sit close together. You can oick out your own...

Not sure why this restaurant is listed under West Memphis but in any case, I have very fond memories of this downtown restaurant--sorry to hear quality is not the same. They used to have great steaks at a very...

take your pick

10-12 yrs ago, the downtown location was great...not so much anymore. the germantown/cordova location is the way to go, but it's still a gamble on whether or not the food will be that good.

Butcher Shop Depends

It depends on which Butcher Shop you go to. The one in Cordova is great but the downtown one leaves much to be desired. The downtown one was the original one but it's gone way downhill. The one in cordova has...

Classic American Steakhouse

The best steak house that I have found in Memphis! Though I must admit that I have not been to Folk's Folly, Memphis is lucky to have a restaurant of this caliber. There are not many others. Excellent steaks...

I recently spent two of the worst restaurant hours of my life at the Butcher Shop downtown. The food was okay but much too expensive for what you get. The salad bar was sparse as well as being a server...

I recently had a New York Strip here and it was dissapointing. I did not cook it myself but opted for the kitchen to do it. We had a party of five on a slow Saturday night and they still managed to screw up...

Great steaks & mushrooms

If you want steak, this is the place! If you aren't a cook by trade let the pros do it--these steaks are twice the size of ordinary steaks. Also, don't miss the mushrooms.

Yahoo! Travel

The butcher shop is really good, but a little on the expensive side. The great part of this restaurant is that you get to cook your own steaks along a massive grill area in the middle of the place
