The ambiance, food, service was excellent! From our server (Lily) to appetizer, salad, entree, dessert, and coffee- all was an amazing experience! Wish they would consider bringing the concept up to NJ and down to Florida!!!! The concept is amazingly well executed! Would love it to be near as I would make it my go to for all special occasions (and just because 😊).

About the restaurant

Oaklawn Southern Dining offers chef inspired dishes, in a unique urban elegant atmosphere! We're minutes away from the popular Paris Landing State Park, and Land Between the Lakes. Our food has flavors from across the nation, featuring some of your well sought after prime steaks and seafood! We are intentional about dining and hospitality, and your whole evening experience from a girls night out, golf outing, date night, anniversary, and of course, helping you take the edge off with one of our Paris inspired crafted cocktails or maybe one of our many bourbons! We did not fall short from an excellent wine or champagne list for you to choose from to compliment your meal or special evening! We also think you will love the view from the old Oaklawn Home, built in 1954, but "remade" with dining and hospitality in mind. Finally, we've added complimentary valet parking with you in mind! Reservations are highly recommended! See you soon.

I can't express how impressed I/We were. It was my son's 15th Birthday and have never experienced such a display of personalization and effort by any business to make the experience as memorable as Oaklawn did. (That's a Big Statement from a guy who has traveled and experienced high end dining across the country.) Out of all the restaurants in W TN to chose from, he chose Oaklawn Southern Dining and glad he did. From them wishing Happy Birthday when he walked in, to a personalized Happy Birthday sign on the table, to a "special personalized menu" for him + the service we was phenomenal. The meal was 5 Star, I highly recommend the Cajun Blackened Redfish & Shrimp, son would recommend the Flounder & Grits. My wife enjoyed the Ginger Soy Chicken. From walk-in, appetizers to desert, and departing was great. FIVE STARS all around *****!

One of my favorite restaurants in Memphis! The food is consistently amazing, and the service is top tier. The short ribs are possibly the best thing I’ve ever eaten, so I highly recommend.
