The night that five star food attacked! Or what could be known as, the night that the Yelpers got seriously wined and dined. Denise you sure know how to throw a party!

As everyone else has already mentioned, the food was superb and the drinks were top notch. The servers were on a rampage offering us all appetizers from the moment we piled all the buffet food on our plates. Everyone was courteous, speedy, clean, and helpful.

Here's the part where I explain how good the drinks were. After my New York Sour, I decided to try a Crescent City Cooler.

Here's the part where I explain how good the drinks were. After my New York Sour, I decided to try a Crescent City Cooler. While the bartender, Trevor, was concocting it, he asked how I liked my first. I said it was perfect and he began to explain how he got issued this job for the night. He said he was enjoying it and I told him I wished I could pay him to stay in a corner of my house and make these 3 drinks for me all the time. WHISKEY faux pas...

But on a serious note, I am so thankful that I was invited to this lovely evening with such awesome peeps. I had the joy of meeting and sharing most of my evening with Robin. She is my new favorite. Sorry everyone else!

Great seeing Dan, Camille, Shaun, Amanda, Adam, Charity. So happy to meet some people I had missed previously: Steven, Shane, Joel, and Samantha. The lovely Regina was such a pleasure to meet as she is a newbie and actually took the initiative to introduce herself to me! Way to go! Can't wait to see you all again soon.

Side note: How is Denise's complexion and lipstick so FLAWLESS?!?! Is she even human? She sure is a treat to talk to :)

I've had Very Good replications at Playground in DT Santa Ana, CA... but this is the jam.

Super friendly staff, who even gave me a free chicken wing sample while I decided!

Chicken - moist, flavorful, thin crust/coating
(Spicy) Sweet Spicy Love sauce - tangy vinegary, mildly spiced, very good
Fried pickles - soggy, spears. not the typical rounds/slices.  And they give you a ton. I'd pass
Kool Aid - just makes the meal right

Uncle Lou's is famous for a reason.  Lived up to the reputation

Finding food after 9-10pm in Memphis can be difficult.  Luckily Aldo's was open.

Got a Margherita pizza to go with added garlic.  Tasted pretty good.

Also downed a few pints of beer, which are $3 on Mondays!

Chatted with the bartender, I believe Daniel, who was friendly and gave me the rundown of the town, with some great recommendations on where locals go.

Five Stars!   All the way!!

What a wonderful event!

I'm not going to be able to add any more detail than my fellow Elites have shared about the food, drinks, or service.  So, here is the best I have.   I'll try and stay focused for time's sake.

The food was fabulous, like, not even on the same level as well, anything you pay for.  The atmosphere was fantastic!   What a good chill vibe. I was able to meet some really cool people and see some familiar faces.  I enjoyed seeing Whitney H again...  She is so cool.   Denise looked like a Greek Goddess!  I hope that's not offensive to her!…Read more Five Stars!   All the way!!

Of course, all the regulars, I love you all.   You know who you are but here's some shouts. I enjoyed talking to Samantha and Joel.  They are hilarious!  Robin B may be my favorite Yelper friend now...  Shane S is always interesting and a joy to have a conversation with.  Daniel, Lauren, and the B's were also a pleasure.  Steven L hates me...  It's cool bro.  Anthony C is a bad ass.  Camille and Romona were also a blessing to see.  Love you guys!

I met David E., Laura W., Emily H. and her brother, and Regina C.   What a pleasure.  I also got to meet the infamous Joi.  What?  NOLA Joi?   Yep.  I'm cooler than like, at least, some of you.  Nice to meet you Joi.   I hope to be able to spend some time in your city!   Sadly, I've never been to New Orleans.  That is BS and must change!

The restaurant put on a show for us!  Nothing more I can add about that!   The staff was fantastic!   Bravo!

I scored like 53 $25 off meals.  You'll just find me at the bar now, daily, for about a month and a half.    Of course, I'm kidding...   Maybe

Great Job Denise!
