great food! friendly service!. i eat at mcewen's often, it's a great place to bring people for lunch or dinner. the portion sizes are just right- not too big not too small. the wine list is great. get the hummus appetizer, its always a favorite. the food is consistently good and the service is consistently friendly. also, i'm so glad they are becoming project green fork certified (that meaning they are an eco friendly establishment)! makes me want to go and support them even more!

definitely give them a try!

the banana cream pie is heaven. the combination of whip cream, bananas, cookie crust and the caramel/chocolate sauce makes this dessert rank top 5 on my list. i would go there just to eat that and skip the meal :) :). then again the squash casserole is yummy too!!!! that's why they call me bg!!!!

fantastic food, but the service could have been better.. our group made reservations for 7pm and showed up promptly. there were people in front of us at the maître d'. this caused a small traffic jam of sorts because he stands right at the door inside, but due to the size of the place there probably isn't another option for his location. after a few minutes we worked our way up and announced who were and were seated immediately. the tables are a bit on the small side, but not too bad. our waitress was a bit abrupt. she had no issues with interrupting you if she knew what you were going to say. that being said the food was fantastic. we started with bbq duck confit enchiladas which were very tasty. we also ordered the fried oysters which were probably the best i've ever had. for dinner i had the pork osso buco which could not have been better. the flavor was rich and the meat was falling off the bone. the seabass was cooked perfectly. the filet had a wonderful char on the outside and the inside was a perfect medium rare. i've never had a more flavorful cut of meat. the final entrée our group had was the chef choice vegetarian option, and it did not disappoint. it changes daily so i don't want to list any specific foods on the plate, but we wouldn't hesitate to order it again. other than the service the place would have easily been a ten, but so so service is always a downer. still i will be back because the food was just fantastic, and the rest of the staff was great.

this place is very inventive & unique. overall, pretty good. the bbq duck confit enchiladas were excellent. we ordered appetizers & a small plate, 4 in all. the portions are very small for what you pay. the flavor profiles were spot on, but i believe there were some technical issues that brought the experience down a notch for us. for example, i'm not sure the scallops were cooked all the way through, the risotto contained some undercooked rice & the lobster wasn't the most tender. as for the ahi tuna tartar...we've had better. nothing was terrible, it just wasn't up to our expectations from everhing we have heard. the service was great. the cheesecake was pretty good. we had that because the portions were so small we were still hungry at the end. maybe next time we'll go for the steak & the pasta. but we'll wait awhile.

nice place. good service, good food and close to where we love to stay when we come to memphis. both times we have dined there it was excellent, and the prices are not out of the park.

their staff us great there! we did not eat here, but they helped us out while my wife was having an asthma attack by letting us sit inside while they got us a cab, and gave us water to help us out. this will definitely be a stop for us next time in memphis.

great downtown dining. mcewen's is one of downtown memphis' most established dining places both for lunch and dinner. lunch consist of sandwiches and salad with a limited number of lunch entrees (great value for the money). dinner is a totally different with fantastic seafood, steaks, rack of lamb, duck etc & don't miss out on the small plates menu & for dessert the banana cream pie. great ever changing wine list and full bar. they also have a really cool wine cellar that you can request to be seated in. try mcewen's for yourself and you will understand why they have been in business for over 11 years. (and unlike many other downtown restaurants, they keep the kitchen open until 11pm on friday & saturdays, 10pm during the week)

gyro gyro. awesome gyro. lamb and beef together. try and go a little later than 12 though or you will have nowhere to sit and wait at least 30 min to get through the line.

everyone is friendly given the crowded spot.
