About this restaurant

  • Innovative
  • Romantic
  • Good for special occasions
The Gray Canary hopes to add to the Renaissance of downtown Memphis. Stepping into The Gray Canary, we hope to create a captivating experience, cementing a moment in time, a memory of meal painted in vivid colors. The menu explores the way in which techniques can influence flavor, from raw to cooked. From acids to smoking, grilling, and one pot cooking, the way ash and embers can coax flavor from produce and proteins, our chefs will experiment with techniques as diverse as South American asado cooking and familiar as a back yard barbecue.

    Excellent service by Daniel. He was professional , friendly, informative, and attentive. Menu selections were great. Our food was delicious. We had the grilled oysters, rolls, Brussel sprouts, steak and s'mores for dessert. The coffee was also amazing. We can't wait to go back and try other items.

    Food was good, but everything else was a little off. Our waiter was friendly but scarce; long waits for everything. Pricing very aggressive ($6 for 2 pieces of bread?). We tried 4 different glasses of wine between us, all $14-$18, all disappointing. It was my wife's birthday, and at the end of the meal they brought her ... a card. I hate to complain about that, it's just the only restaurant I've ever seen where they don't at least give you a cupcake or something for a birthday. Combined with the wierdly expensive bread and bad wine, we just left with the impression of being squeezed for every dollar. There's much better in Memphis for the money.

    The menu choices were limited. The drink and wine list were expensive. Our server was the highlight of the night. She was knowledgeable about the menu and offered appropriate suggestions.
