    SUPERLATIVE service and FANTASTIC dishes! The attention to detail at Tsunami is one of their trademarks. Order anything; this is a "you-can't-go-wrong" type of place. I had the spice crusted tuna on cucumber salad with wasabi vinaigrette, and it was PERFECTION. And don't skip the homemade bread + butter -- it's one of the stars of the show, for sure!

    12/20/24 me and my girlfriends had our annual Christmas gathering and we choose to have a dinner setting this year and Itta Bena was on my TOP list to try something different with the ambience. The food was AMAZING!!! It was so good and quality worth. I had the stuff shrimp for appetizer and my entree was the Tomahawk Pork Chop with sweet potatoes and brussels sprout and it was soooo good and plenty. I also had a glass of Merlot with Beringer being the maker and it was good as well. WE tried the short ribs, chicken and lamb chops also and they were pleasantly pleased as well. Definitely will be going back and our server i think her name "Jackie"? she was fantastic....

    Loved everything about BB King’s! The reservation process was easy and they greeted us with a smile, my mother in law had a walker and the assisted her getting to our table. Our server Rachel and her shadow Mya were so nice and helpful. The food was incredible!! Best Memphis pulled pork I’ve ever had. The portions were just right, not huge. The brownie sundae was awesome!! The music from the band was terrific! Great addition to the meal and created a very memorable experience. If your a tourist in Memphis, this is a great place to to go get a bit of Southern hospitality!
