belmont grill


belmont grill. thanks to an eye catching red awning, a cute 1930’s building and a good review on yelp, we lunched in this dark, red-checkered tableclothed restaurant in memphis. i immediately zeroed in on the hand battered, fried mushrooms ($6.25) served with, what seemed to be, an in-house made horseradish mayo sauce, i was happy. the broad menu covers, soups, salads, sandwiches, hamburgers, po boys, ribs, catfish, shrimp, steaks, desserts and a full bar. with this menu selection and the old school ambiance, this was the right place. next up, wings ($8.25) with a side of fries ($2.50). the wings were fully intact & a bit messy to eat, but i managed. the fries were wedge, fried and damn good. all washed down with sweet tea. no room for dessert. a double wash of the hands and we were out the back door (there’s a small parking lot in the back). the kitchen is open 11a-1a, everyday ‘cept x-mas. next trip to memphis, skip The Spaghetti Warehouse, set your TomTom to Poplar & Mendenhall and get your belmont on.
