Mahogany River Terrace: Memphis’ Only Riverfront Restaurant Opens on Historic Mud Island

Memphis, TN – The Bluff City is about to gain a new culinary gem. Mahogany River Terrace, the city’s only riverfront restaurant, officially opened its doors on October 2, offering a unique dining experience along the banks of the Mississippi River. Located on historic Mud Island, Mahogany River Terrace promises to be a premier destination for both locals and tourists alike.

The restaurant is the latest addition to the Mahogany Collection, owned and operated by attorney Carlee McCullough. Following the success of Mahogany Memphis, which opened in 2018 and quickly gained a viral following for its welcoming atmosphere and soul-soothing menu, Mahogany River Terrace is poised to deliver the same excellence but with a stunning riverfront view.

A One-of-a-Kind Riverfront Dining Experience

Mahogany River Terrace offers six dynamic indoor and outdoor dining spaces, each with breathtaking views of the Mississippi River. With its scenic setting and upscale Southern and Creole-inspired cuisine, the restaurant is perfect for intimate dinners, business lunches, or large-scale corporate events. Guests can enjoy four different dining services: lunch and high tea Wednesday through Friday, dinner Wednesday through Saturday, and brunch on the weekends.

“We’re excited to bring another distinctive dining experience to the Bluff City,” said McCullough. “Whether it’s business or personal, you’re a native Memphian or a tourist enjoying our warm hospitality, Mahogany River Terrace features a one-of-a-kind setting and fresh takes on Southern and Creole-influenced cuisine.”

A Menu Rich in Southern and Creole Flavors

The restaurant’s menu, curated by chefs Pierre Ware and Shawn Davis, offers an indulgent array of Southern classics with a Creole twist. Signature dishes like deep-fried lobster tails, blackened catfish, braised oxtails, and Tomahawk steaks are sure to tantalize taste buds. For vegan diners, there are more than half a dozen plant-based options available, ensuring that everyone has something to enjoy.

The restaurant’s versatility makes it an ideal spot for everything from casual lunches and sunset dinners to celebratory gatherings and corporate events. With its prime location and an elevated take on Southern dining, Mahogany River Terrace is set to become a go-to for Memphis locals and visitors looking for a memorable meal with a view.

An Expansion of the Mahogany Collection

Mahogany River Terrace marks the second restaurant under McCullough’s Mahogany Collection, a brand founded on the principle of bringing authentic flavors and a sense of home to the Memphis community. The original Mahogany Memphis, known for its “home away from home” atmosphere, has been a beloved part of the city’s dining scene since its inception. The new riverfront location aims to build on this legacy while offering a fresh and elevated dining experience with the best of Southern hospitality.
