Tenero Cafe Butcher - Memphis

If you like bacon eggs this is your place. Just don’t order anything else for breakfast. The grits were peppery rubbery. The “hashbrowns” were just not good. The sausage had not flavor except pepper. And if you have biscuits make sure you have something to drink so you don’t choke to death. Finally, their “hand made beignets” are really pate a choux dough overfried in the same oil as everything else. No resemblance of beignets at all!

I 've been disappointed both tines that I 've eaton at Teneros. Both times we ate breakfast, here 's what I learned.... the bacon is terrific, the eggs are always cooked perfectly, the sausage has no taste except pepper, the grits are peppery rubbery, the hashbrowns are just not good, the biscuits look smell great, but be sure you have something to drink when you eat them because even slathered with butter they 're dry. Finally Teneros offers hand made beignets . They are not beignets! Beignets are made from a donut dough, Terneros makes them out of pate a choux dough, which is hollow when cooked in order to be filled with custard or ice cream. As if that wasn 't bad enough, the were bordering on burnt tasted like everything else that gets fried in that oil. So, if you want breakfast...stick to bacon eggs.

The food was great and the waitress we had was awesome, great personality the sweetest person you could meet her name is Sterling Key K. Definitely coming back. Kudos to the chef as well.

Good quality and portions and friendly staff! We got everything to go and it was all good! The pork tenderloin sandwich is huge! The tenero burger tasted like a good traditional burger. The chicken sandwich was delicious and love when onion rings are beer battered. We've also tried their tacos and breakfast panini (pictured). If anything, you have to get the churro beignets!!

Very disappointed. I asked for the breakfast tacos, and I took a picture of what I received. Our waitress was great and agreed with the lack of food on the plate. I sent back the plate to the kitchen and was charged for it until I made the staff aware. The manager did the fix the ticket, however, walked past us and did not try to apologize or mediate the situation. I am used to better customer service than this. I do not recommend this restaurant.
