A group of friends wound up at The Blue Monkey this past weekend, and we were all starving after a night of bartending the Bet Against Breast Cancer event at The Memphis Zoo.
We ordered a bunch of food to share, including the jumbo shrimp, stuffed mushrooms, mozzarella cheese sticks, and hot wing rolls and my Beef Eater sandwich.
I cannot say that these are among the best food items I have ever eaten. However, Blue Monkey does have some good greasy bar food. It is not winning awards any time soon, but there is a time and place for it. I would eat it again.
Blue Monkey continues to do what it does best, feature average live music and serve up good drinks. This is why they continue to be a midtown staple.
