    Outstanding secret place

    I've lived in Memphis area for almost 20 years and had never heard of this place. It is worth finding. The rib tips were outstanding. We can't wait to try other menu items. The service was personal and desserts were good too. This is one...More

    Saw Tom's BBQ on "Diner, Drive-Ins and Dives" - yes, it was a Dive, but the food was not bad

    Well, I'm a big Triple D fan and had heard about Tom's BBQ a couple of years ago. Since I live about 35 miles from Tom's, it's not been easy to be - "in the neighborhood" - to check out the food. When you drive...More

    Happening Lunch Place

    Met there for lunch. Fortunately we got there at 11, because it started to get a bit crowded after that. It's in an industrial part of Memphis, so it's a place you have to be going to, not close to normal shopping, etc. When you...More

    Wonderful food and a very friendly staff

    Tom's is an excellent place to stop in and get some rib tips. They are amazing. The parking is scarce, but it is amazing food. Adam is one of the friendliest people you would ever want to meet. Thank you for a great experience.

    Closes at 8pm on a Saturday night

    Was closed. Heard this place is great, but who closes on a Saturday night at 8pm? You all need to rethink your weekend hours.
