The Folk’s Folly story began in 1977 with unconventional origins, as the best stories often do.Native son Humphrey Folk, Jr. was a prominent and shrewd developer, whose hard work carried him all over the country, cultivating his sincere appreciation of food and fine wine.Undaunted by a complete lack of restaurant or culinary experience, he decided to convert a quaint and intimate house into a small eatery. His peers offered little encouragement, so he added the word “folly” to his own name, and Memphis’ Original Prime Steak House was born.With only a gentleman's handshake to signify agreement, Humphrey Folk welcomed famed Memphis restaurateur Thomas Boggs as managing partner of Folk's Folly in 2003.This partnership built the bridge to the next generation and Folk's Folly Prime Steak House remains a family affair.*PLEASE NOTE: ALL REQUESTS FOR PRIVATE DINING MUST BE MADE BY CONTACTING THE RESTAURANT DIRECTLY AT901-762-8200

SUPERLATIVE service and FANTASTIC dishes! The attention to detail at Tsunami is one of their trademarks. Order anything; this is a "you-can't-go-wrong" type of place. I had the spice crusted tuna on cucumber salad with wasabi vinaigrette, and it was PERFECTION. And don't skip the homemade bread + butter -- it's one of the stars of the show, for sure!

My friends and I were celebrating our 60th Deltaversary in our sorority. Our server Tim group 9 was so warm and welcoming. We were able to get the Wednesday special - short ribs of beef which melted in your mouth. The dish was perfectly seasoned. The collard greens were tasty as was the mashed sweet potatoes. The restaurant was packed but the service was quick and on point. Thanks for a wo needful celebration

The concept of this restaurant is fantastic if you’re one that usually can’t make up your mind on what to eat. Little plates are served and nicely presented. Also wine or whiskey comes in flights. You can close as many as you would like but 3 is a good choice. Unfortunately, we didn’t have room for dessert but we’ll be back next time we are in the area. Such a great variety of meats and they had my favorite dish: chicken and waffles. The chicken was sooo tender! Everything was delicious and the service from Reece was impeccable.
