Fast Japanese Cuisine At Tokyo Grill

Update 2020: Tokyo Grill has two Memphis-area locations, one in Midtown at 1400 Poplar Avenue in the Crosstown neighborhood and one in East Memphis at 4978 Park Ave.

If you've never tried barbecue pizza, bring a friend and try it at Coletta's. Their barbecue pizza has a thick crust, barbecue sauce, and is piled high with pork and cheese.
