Hog & Hominy

Hog & Hominy is a chef-driven East Memphis restaurant that earned a Bib Gourmand in the 2026 Michelin Guide, and its burger has a national following. The John T. Burger is an Oklahoma-style smashed onion burger with American cheese, pickled lettuce and mustard, served with fries.

The rest of the menu runs to pizza, oysters and other dishes worth sharing, so it works well for a group. If you love onion burgers, this is the Memphis burger to put at the top of your list.
