New Eats: Restaurant Iris’ bar offers a little new, a little old
Restaurant Iris’ bar menu features some of the old — the barbecue shrimp from the original Iris — and some new, such as the shrimp toast in the background. Onion rings are fresh and solid. (Jennifer Biggs/The Daily Memphian)
Iris’ bar is open daily, from 11 a.m. to at least 10 p.m., and the star of the show during a recent visit was executive chef Russell Casey’s shrimp toast.
