Marmalade Restaurant and Lounge

Marmalade Restaurant and Lounge
153 E Ge Patterson Ave
Memphis, TN 38103

This restaurant is downtown, and I had never visited it nor had I really heard anything.  I had seen it multiple times and I had always wanted to try it.  We were in the area and looking for a place to eat.  The parking place we found was right in front, so we decided to give it a try, even though the parking lot was empty.  The ratings online are actually 4 and 5 stars.  It was also 9pm at night, so it made sense that there wouldn't be a lot of people there.





It's a southern eatery, so of course macaroni and cheese as well as spaghetti are considered vegetables.

Our server was super friendly.  

All of us ordered the southern fried chicken.  We varied in our vegetables.  The server tried hardcore to sell us the peach cobbler.  When the first person in our party ordered, she asked if she wanted to peach cobbler.  She said maybe after the meal.  

We were given popcorn while we waited.  It was actually a long wait, but it was worth it.  I'm sure they literally start cooking after you order.  


Our server constantly checked on us and kept our pitchers of water full.

Finally, our food came out.  


I ordered a wing and a thigh, and they came with mini cornbread muffins.  

For my vegetables, I ordered greens and mac and cheese.


Of course, someone ordered the spaghetti vegetable.  


Everything was delicious.  I was stuffed after the meal, so I was going to pass on the peach cobbler.  However, the server was insistent.  She talked about how one time there was a table of 6 and everyone ordered doubles, so they ran out.  And another table was jealous.  After that, one person in our party decided to order it and we all sampled it.  It really was good.


The service is really good and the server was really funny, without meaning to be.  She was extra careful to make sure that everyone got their order and they we had everything.  

When she brought us our credit card receipts, she told each one of us how to fill out the receipt.  She pointed out the tip line and which copy was ours.  What made it funny was that she did it to each of us individually.  She was very thorough, but attentive.

I definitely recommend this place.  It has a nice charm and good food.
