Well-known as an eclectic restaurant serving unique dishes ranging from Caribbean-flavored prime rib to tacos to order, Karen Blockman Carrier's Beauty Shop quickly turns into a hip, upscale, yet casual bar after the dinner hour has passed. It's not hard to get into the fun, fashionable spirit of the place -- the waitresses sport bouffant wigs, and the decor is modern and retro. The kitschy hairstyles and uniforms do not extend to the patrons, as the bar crowd consists of some of Memphis' finest young movers and shakers, relentlessly socializing. Those wanting to relax away from the crowd can usually find a table to themselves as well. Mixologist David Parks has brought the same energy and creativity to the drink menu that Carrier put into the food; his wine list is extensive yet surprisingly affordable, and the sangria is a must. -- Eric Friedl

    service was good, drinks very good. 4 went for brunch; biscuit and gravy a bust,
    but the other items were pretty good. Atmosphere was worth the visit but I probably wouldn't go back. Trys really hard but just doesn't hit the mark.

  • Bogus and trendy

    My experience was marginal but it was certainly better than places like Equestria in Germantown which is much lower on the scale

  • What a treasure!!

    This is a real treat to have a place like this in Memphis. The atmosphere is unique. The drinks are fantastic and the food is great! The lemmon cake for dessert was incredible. Have a good time!
