About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Great for brunch
“Look Good. Eat Good.” are the words emblazoned on the front windows at the Beauty Shop. This hip and trendy restaurant in the Cooper-Young district of midtown Memphis does both, as it conjures up images of a ‘50s-style beauty shop, formerly Priscilla Presley’s curl-and-dye spot. It’s a camp wonderland where the façade is Jetsons-era Vitrolite, and choice seating is offered beneath hooded Belvedere hair dryers.

Nostalgia is served with a sense of humor here. The beauty shop flashback comes complete with original mint green wash basins filling in as sinks behind the hand built bar, made of tiger maple wood. The terrazzo floor is original. Glass brick stalls serve as intimate booths. Mixed with the retro renderings are modern touches such as hand-blown art-glass lights, and glamorous copper and silver-leaf walls.

    Ate on the patio with dogs for Mother's Day. The restaurant has such a cute concept and a large, unique Sunday brunch menu. We all enjoyed our food. The servers were also friendly and kind. Today was our first visit after hearing good reviews for years, and we're already planning to be back.

    Family took me here for Mother’s Day brunch, just my second visit, and it did not disappoint. One of my new favorite places!! The carefully crafted combination of flavors and textures in every single dish is what sets this place apart — and obviously, the whole beauty shop vibe…. but that’s a given! Sat on the front patio, so didn’t get the whole beauty shop experience this time, but enjoyed the outdoors and lively street scene. Our food took quite a long time on this day, but was well worth the wait! My family loved the Chicken and Waffles, Thai breakfast bowl, French herb omelette, hash browns (which were more like home fries, really), and Tartine (toast with whipped ricotta, pears, honey drizzle and mint). Amazing fresh flavors, all chef-inspired! Cannot wait to return!

    Enjoyed a great experience at TBS with my wife and an old friend. Food, service, and overall hospitality were all excellent. We specifically appreciated the friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive service we received from Jacob. Thanks for a great night. See you again soon,

    I knew nothing about the restaurant before dining there. The experience was great, and the atmosphere was different and cool. Our servicer was attentive and fun. We will definitely return.

    Sat on the front patio area; lovely night but the traffic was a bit loud at times. Jacob did a great job waiting on us and helping with food choices. All our food was delicious especially the triple tail special. Never a disappointment at The Beauty Shop!
