Silky O'Sullivan's - Memphis

Great patio. Wife and I just got drinks. The waitress was great and managed to keep up with everyone despite the distance across the patio from the bar.

One of the best places on Beale Street to enjoy the Memphis music scene, enjoy the atmosphere of Beale street and enjoy great food!! Ask for Marilyn she’s a great server

Yesterday was my first time ever at Silky’s but will not be my last!! We had the most awesome time and Lacey was the best server ever! It was like unexpectedly running into an old friend and we’d never met her before! The atmosphere in the Courtyard was amazing! The music was great! Our Server was awesome! The other patrons were the friendliest folks ever strangers paid for our last round they were another table our Server had. The food was fabulous!! Raw oysters and fried oysters were perfect! And the drinks?? The drinks were the bomb!! Next time we’re goin for the BIG one! Just can’t rave on this place enough. Hey, Lacey! See you again soon! (I hope, lol) ‍

The oyster bar is to die for the catfish is 'Bangin '

Ended up here twice on a recent Wednesday night. The first time in a search for a bar (6pm-ish) without a cover charge and then again (10pm-ish) on the hunt for a spot with any vegetarian food. It's certainly not a vegetarian haven but it does have a veggie burger which puts it ahead of most of the joints on Beale St. Both times the staff was pleasant and professional and we enjoyed all the local beers the bartenders recommended. The star of the show though were the piano players who began perhaps around 7pm and were still there when we returned. To be honest, the crowd was giving them very little and they persisted like the professionals they were despite the milquetoast response. Next time I'll be ready with a long list of songs that could be in their repertoire and keep my fingers crossed for a more dynamic group of patrons. If you go, be prepared to tip the pianists and make song requests. Your experience will be the richer for it.
