Not on Beale Street, but by all means resist any urge you have to dine at perhaps THE most overrated joint in the entire Western Hemisphere, The Rendezvous.

As a rejoinder to previous convos, I'm here with my daughter (visual art) previewing a college. Minimum $63,000 scholarship but she wasn't overly impressed.

Dyers Burgers and Gus's Fried Chicken are two mainstays. Not exactly fine dining but they are Memphis institutions. I disagree with Cool about Rendezvous. I lived in Memphis for 7 years and have eaten at about all the great rob joints and there is something special about The Vous. Huey's is on Union a block from Beale and they have good burgers. A nicer restaurant is Flight which is a 5 minute walk from Beale.

Yeah, I drove by your alma today. I ended up going to Silky's. Good service. Dry BBQ. Bland charbroiled oysters. Thanks for the recommendations. I'll probably be here frequently, so I'll have other opportunities to try your advice.
