Downtown energy meets an intimate, elevated atmosphere. The Restaurant is built for client gatherings, board dinners, team celebrations, and stylish holiday receptions where every guest feels close to the art and to each other.

John-Paul Gagliano, whose family-owned restaurant group is behind acclaimed local dining destinations Ecco, Libro and Tonica, will debut an original dining concept within Memphis Art Museum. The restaurant is scheduled to open in January 2027.
The restaurant will introduce a version of the Libro concept to a 4,595-square-foot dining space designed by Nashville-based Dryden Studio.

A dedicated street entrance lets the restaurant keep its own hours, so you can stop in for a long lunch, a glass of wine after work or a Saturday night out.
A full-service catering kitchen hosts weddings, private dinners and other gatherings beyond the regular menu.
