Blues Highway: Itta Bena Memphis
 Art Meripol

Memphis

Itta Bena
After you‘ve hit Beale Street, head to this speakeasy-inspired restaurant above B.B King’s Blues Club. It’s more upscale than down-home but worth a stop for the Blues Berry Martini.

145 Beale Street, Memphis; (901) 578-3031. See who’s playing and what’s cooking at ittabenamemphis.com.
