The Archives Bar & Bistro

Dined here after a big Graceland/Elvis filled day. We enjoyed filet mignon and chicken with garlic mash tonight at the Archives and had the pleasure of meeting Chef Phil. A couple of glasses of Coppola cab sav as recommended by the lovely Chef. Aniya took our order and checked in on us during the meal. The filet was devine with the red wine reduction and the chicken was lovely, but the best part of our evening was the patient and friendly chef Phil. He was knowledgeable about the surrounding area and obviously passionate about food, community and southern hospitality. If you are looking for a lovely atmosphere, f@$£ing great food and an altogether awesome experience - eat here. And tell a Chef Phil that Dani sent you!

We attended the Wine Pairing Dinner. Everything was wonderful. Very upscale and classy ever. Chef Phillip Dewayne has developed a real treat! The dinner was community style meaning you might share a table with people you didn't come with. We didn't know this at the time booking but it turned out to be great. The food was very flavorful. Lot's of dishes we hadn't tried before. The wine pairings were great. I'm looking forward to the bourbon tasting

Beautiful artwork and servers are very attentive. We ordered burgers and fries. (Warning, no mustard) They opened a few days ago so we will come back in a few months to see how it's going:-)

Love what they've done with the space - the renovations look great!! I wish they would dim the lighting because the bright overhead lights kill the vibe. Our waitress was incredibly kind and helpful. I had the filet wrap which was delicious. My only complaint is that I ordered a dirty martini - which came out dry. I had one sip and then a giant fly landed in it, so I obviously couldn't drink more. I asked for a glass of wine instead and was still charged for the martini :/

Came for Memphis dining week with some friends and the whole experience, vibe, ambience, was amazing. We didn't have reservations but got seated right away. Staff was very friendly. We got the filet, scallops, and duck spring rolls. Everything was grea

Great food and service. Pleasantly surprised that parking was not an issue for a late lunch!! Excellent wine and cocktail selections. I requested a buttery Chardonnay and received exactly what I requested. Bartendar recommended the steakhouse wrap which comes with a side of truffle fries. Yummy!!! I'll be back!

Great ambience and service! The steak and eggs were amazing! Will be coming back to try the other menu options.

Great staff, food and atmosphere. Not sure why a 3 star review would be given to a bistro style menu because of mustard. The food portions and menu truly matches the aesthetic of the space. Chef Phillip is doing a great job!

Kendall was very attentive and friendly. The ambiance was so cozy and artsy. The deviled eggs and scallop risotto were delicious! I had the hibiscus mock-tail and it was divine!
