Folks Folly provides luxurious home-style southern elegance in it's intimate dining spaces. Or you may prefer its cozy pub-style dining with salt water aquarium to gaze on. It won't matter to you where you sit, you will thoroughly enjoy the delicious melt in your mouth filet mignon and spinach soufflé as long as price is no concern! Bring a wad... More

Absolutely worth every penny! Gourmet food, incredibly wonderful staff, food was perfectly cooked and as a former chef I'm picky LOL. We will return every time we visit Memphis. I felt like I was royalty there by the way everyone treated me.

From start to finish, my wife and I found everything at Folk's Folly top notch. We were celebrating our wedding anniversary and chose Folk's Folly because we both wanted steak and we both wanted privacy. This was our second visit to Folk's Folly, so we were aware of the private dining areas that allow you to dine separately if it... More

I am willing to pay high dollar... But the detail needs to be behind it. Very good steak but not my best. Bread was brought over and covered as warm, it was room temp and the butter was from the fridge. Fried pickles were over battered and greasy... Lyonnaise potatoes were awesome but at $8.95 for one potatoe and onions... More

This was my first time to Memphis my niece took me to Folks Folly and I was over whelmed. Valet parking. Wonderful service, spectacular food, great wine list and terrific deserts. If you like steaks go here. If you like food go here.

If you want a great steak in Memphis, Folk's Folly is the place to go. It is expensive, but the food and the experience are worth it if you want a memorable evening. The servers are attentive and do a great job. The atmosphere is very elegant. The lighting could be a bit brighter so you can see better. The... More
