This wasn't just dinner, this was a true experience!! Not only was the food really amazing and all locally sourced, but it was the little details and the astounding amount of love and energy the staff and chef put into the evening. The kitchen is open and visible to the diners, especially where our table was, and we really enjoyed watching all the chefs prepare the dishes, it felt like we were watching parts of "The Bear" (the elevated cooking in a kitchen parts!). Everything about our experience felt personal and the little touches the head chef executed felt so heartwarming and sophisticated simultaneously. We didn't order dessert, but because we were celebrating our birthdays, the chef brought us a small plate cake on a dainty, special plate from his mother's kitchen. So so glad I took a chance on this place, and on such a special occasion too!! Couldn't recommend more if you're into classy, elevated, vibes and cuisine.
I absolutely love this place. I went for my birthday dinner. I had the six course plus wine pairing. It was exceptional. Hands down the best meal/service I have ever had. EVER! I loved to intimate setting. The staff was incredible. The servers were knowledgeable and gave a detailed description of every course. I have never had a better dining experience. I would recommend Dory to any and every one.
The best meal I have had in Memphis. This dinner was a complete experience from start to finish. Each time I have eaten here I have had delicious fresh food and memorable night. I am a good cook so I don’t usually like things that I can cook at home. However, these dishes are like nothing I have ever made- or ever had anywhere else. Truly a gem in this city.
Are you looking for a wonderful dining experience? Look no further. This place is excellent.
From the atmosphere, to the food, to the wonderful team that takes care of you during your dining experience, Dory is a must-visit. The choices are brilliantly limited, giving us options on how many courses we would like to venture on depending on the day of the week. And oh what a wonderful adventure it is.
We experienced a new menu that included the most decadent venison, scallops, fluke, beets, corn bread, and pasta. We also had a view of the kitchen and witness the craft that goes in to prepare these wonderful dishes. To top it all off, we were taken care of by a wonderful team who explained very well what went into each dish, as made excellent recommendations of drinks to pair them with.
I do not have the skill to describe in words how wonderful the food is, or how their team makes sure you are enjoying the experience. My only advise is to not let the price stop you from trying. If you can afford it, this is truly a first-class culinary experience that enjoy without leaving Memphis. Trust them as your guides in this wonderful and surprising adventures.
I really wanted to like this restaurant more than I did. Some of the best meals I've ever had were tasting menus at fine restaurants around the world. Unfortunately, my experience at "Dory" did not meet my expectations. The chef owner was very personable and welcoming and we appreciated meeting him. The staff was very professional. The building is clean and pretty, but felt more like a cafeteria decor than that of a fine dining restaurant -- there is no privacy between tables, which is important when everyone is getting the same food. There is no mystery or romance.
The summer menu was rather disappointing. A few of the courses were very good, but most were unimaginative. The fish was dry and bland. The steak was chewy and unoriginal. My expectation for a tasting menu with small portions is that every bite should be exceptional. This was not. Maybe it's what the local market can accommodate? But I had higher expectations.
5-star service and an excellent food experience. Attentive, knowledgeable and friendly staff. We got to meet Chef Dave and our sommelier was excellent. The dishes were clean and fresh. My husband doesn't care for fish, shellfish or eggs and his substitutions were perfect. He's mentioned how good my birthday cake was like 6 times. Highly recommend.
It was an amazing experience. The atmosphere, service, and food, is at the very best you can see in Memphis. The chef is a very welcoming person. I honestly think Dory is one of the best in town. I had an average experience once, but they overcame the issue, and recognized their mistake. That speaks really highly about the management, and overall hospitality you received. Strongly recommended.
I had an amazing time at this restaurant. I absolutely love being surprised with each course, and the wine pairing was perfect. Alex and Randall were both fantastic. I thought the price point was fair for the service and food (expect to spend about $100 pp for the 4 course meal meal with wine pairing on a Tuesday and about $150 pp for the 6 course meal with wine pairing Wed-Sat.)

Honestly I loved this place Iâve been trying new spots in the city with my birthday coming up and it was fun. Service was very mediocre but I assume itâs because theyâre used to that lil gratuity they get so they donât try hard other than tha

This was my first time ever throwing axes and our coach, Cameron, was awesome! He made it light and fun and never made me feel like I was dumb lol. If you go here to throw axes, ask for Cameron! You won't be disappointed!
This place was a cute Mexican restaurant to get a quick bite to eat. The brilla tacos were good but I felt like the meat was kind of dry. The queso was very thick and maybe it just needed to heated a little longer. Overall the taste of the foods were
This place is really neat and would be like a giant playground for kids. There are lots of little buildings to go around and enter. Neat and unique swings along the way. They also still had some flowers even with it being November. Just a nice way to
