Good food and good service from the owner, her granddaughter acts a little bothered that there are customers present but the owner is happy to have them there. She makes you feel like she is your grandmother and she is cooking for you at her house. The place is small but the food is big and so is th
Alcenia’s was a cozy and cute little spot we just happened to find when we got into town for a weekend trip. The fried chicken is the best I’ve ever had! Definitely order the tomato gravy and biscuits. Sweet tea is delicious too. Great service. Friendly older lady who was so sweet and treated you li
We very much enjoyed our meal here a few days ago. The staff was wonderful. The owner is as sweet as everyone says she is and our waitress was sweet as well. My daughters and I loved it.
This place is incredible. Everything is super tasty, well seasoned, home cooked to perfection. Fried chicken to absolutely die for, gravy, mashed potatoes, cone bread!! All top notch soul food. And a hug from the owner. Can’t recommend highly enough!

Alcenia’s was the best. The food was incredible and home cooked, the result of a true family business. The atmosphere was happy and welcoming with the chef herself even coming out to chat with us. A great Memphis dining experience

This was my first time here someone told me about it. First off the restaurant was small but quint and I really enjoyed the coziness. It was decorated very pretty with a eclectic style. The staff was friendly. I had the smothered chicken with mac and cheese and yams the for dessert I had the lemon
Amazing authentic soul food. I absolutely loved coming here the experience was wonderful. The food was delicious so tasty, rich in flavor and fresh. They do not have precooked food. If you don’t like waiting for fresh food this is not the place for you. Hospitality was so authentic. BJ kissed all of
The food was excellent and the owner greeting everyone at every table was so warm and loving ❤️ I'll definitely go back anytime I'm in town.
I liked this place from the moment I stepped in the door. Very eclectic decor where every table setting is completely different and all are colorful and welcoming. We both ordered the fried chicken, but I got green beans and a side of meatless spaghetti just for fun. It was surprisingly delicious as
Absolutely a traditional, African American atmosphere, filled with love. Delicious homemade Southern Cuisine. Food is made fresh to order. The owner is a Southern Darling. You will fall in love with her and the restaurant, instantly. Come in, relax, don't be in a rush, and enjoy greatness.
The restaurant is close to the convention center. It is pass the underpass. I stopped in and was warmly greeted with a hug. I was welcomed into the Alcenia's family. She is super friendly. I had the sweet tea which was not too sweet. It definitely quenched my thirst on a hot summer day. I ord
The BEST food we had in Memphis. Best fries we'ver ever had. Felt like family, with hugs and kisses on our forehead. Interior is so cute and loved the staff.
I can’t even put it into words! The food is THE ABSOLUTE BEST Food I’ve ever had in my life. You just can’t beat the service, hospitality and overall experience. The tomato gravy sounded so weird to me, and the older lady came to the table gave us a hug and a kiss on the head and with the sweete
The owner is lovely sweet very down to earth lady who puts her heart and soul into her cooking. She warms your heart as soon as you step foot in her restaurant. Most of the time you will be greeted with a great big hug and that says a lot.
My husband and myself both had the pork chops. He had the ch
Everyone that has ever been here is family. Thankful for the hug and yummy meal. Loss of one star for super slow service today.
