Thanks everyone. Iris it is. Will have to decide on night 2.

I totally agree with others recs on Gus's - that is wicked good fried chicken.

I alway recommend it and people think I am crazy for recommending a Mexican place in a strip mall. It is like no other Mexican I have ever had. I was talking with the owner and he said the food is similar to what you will find iat high end places in Mexico City...

I talked to him when i was in town going to ole miss lsu two years ago, my dad is from Mexico City so im always there abd have been since a baby. The owner is from Mexico City (I think he moved to Gtown as his wife's from there when he retired after a successfull business career in Mexico), and he's right its just like the places in the capital. Place is awesome. You'll never eat at whatever that popular chain of Mexican restaurants is called in Memphis again after you eat there.
