MEMO Modern Italian

I wanted to share a good review because there seem to be so many bad ones. We really enjoyed ourselves. Bottle of wine, charcuterie board, small pizza. Service was great. Food was great. They were very busy and because of that very noisy. Just be aware of that. I wouldn’t call Memo a quiet/romantic type of place.

I ❤️Memo! It’s my favorite neighborhood restaurant. They have their pasta made fresh and it is outstanding. My faves are the pasta Carbonara and the Burrata Pasta. They do have great pizzas too and a fantastic pork chop and chicken Parmigiana. Great Food, great service, and on Wednesdays it’s half off bottles of wine 🍷, which is Win for me! I Highly recommend this restaurant.

I can't tell you how glad I am that there are some grumpy folks who left some petty reviews about some silly things here. Maybe they had a chef issue a few months ago, I don't know. However, I am glad that there are some negative reviews here, because I don't want the place to be jam-packed whatever I want to go. Because, for me, it was excellent. I started with the limoncello spritz, which was a really big glass of a very refreshing not too sweet cocktail that I nursed through my whole meal. I ordered the meatballs with the marinara pesto and the ricotta, which were delicious and very fresh tasting. Based upon that, I ordered the carbonara (with tempered expectations anyway). It's almost impossible to get carbonara out anywhere that is truly authentic, and this one wasn't either. That said, it was very close and it was delicious if a smidge salty. The pasta itself was cooked perfectly Al dente. Some places make it so you have to have a wrestling match with the pasta, not here. A nice bite. It's 10 minutes from my house and it's exactly what I've been looking for. And if it's not your cup of tea good 😊

I had a great dinner and my waiter was Kai and he was awesome, but had a small mishap to get it started. I walk in to see if there is a table for two at 5:45. They both say do you have a reservation? I did not and they said sorry we have alot of reservations for inside. all we have is outside. It’s about 100° outside so I said no thanks I logged onto the app. I can make a reservation for six. I do I walk back and hold my phone up and go now I have one amazingly they sat me right down but by then so I was already in a ticked off mood. The food was awesome though and so is the waiter, but they need to train the front facing people properly.

Overall the food itself wasn't bad. However, shrimp is an extra $12 and scallops is $14. Which is fine... except the plates came out with just three shrimp and TWO scallops. When we asked the waiter about the scallops (because we thought no way that could be right) he just said "yeah that's the way it is, if you want more scallops each one will be $7"... The waiter forgot about us a few times while the restaurant was empty and also forgot my side completely. The espresso martini was awful and the service overall was below subpar. Again, food itself wasn't horrible but definitely not worth it for the pricetag

This is our first time at this place, I went with my wife and some friends. The place was beautiful but the positions of the TVs were really bad. The drinks were really good and also the coffee was really good I recommend the espresso and the espresso martini. The food came out in time, we ordered a Prosciutto E Burrata pizza and a Bolognese pasta. Pizza was good not my favorite but good, the crust needed a better combination of soft and crispy. Pasta really tasted like can sauce, when I go to an Italian restaurant I expect to eat a pasta with fresh ingredients, even herbs I expect to be fresh. Overall the experience was good and the place is nice.

This was our second time trying out the new Memo Italian restaurant (previously catch twenty three). The first time, we came to the bar around happy hour, just after the grand opening. We loved the new center bar and ambience! We sat at the bar and really enjoyed our drinks and charcuterie. The c board was sooo good! I especially loved the truffle honey. We came again today for Sunday brunch and sat outside. The menu was large with a lot of options at a reasonable price. We were surprised to see so many empty tables in such a beautiful day. I hope word gets out soon. That this is a great new restaurant for Westchase neighborhood! We enjoyed brunch with wine and mimosas. We got the: beef gnocchi with egg and truffle sauce, pepperoni pizza with ricotta, and the salmon egg Benedict. All were very good! I hope to leave a review on Yelp too once the business can be found on Yelp. Currently, I could not locate it on Yelp.

First visit to Memo for the wife and I. Mixed greens salad with the house vinaigrette. Delicious. The picante pizza with hot honey. Delicious. Cocktails, absolutely delicious. Quality spot, good bar seats and setting. Looking forward to returning to try the pasta and apps.
