The Scene – The decor is the ultimate in casual. Over the years diners have carved their initials, drawn pictures and slapped photos on the walls. Not an artist, but have excellent aim? Customers are encouraged to shoot toothpicks at the ceiling through a straw. This family-run burger joint is the perfect place to gather with friends and unwind from a hectic day. Get here early or you'll have to wait. It's well worth the effort. – – The Food – The burgers are big and juicy and come in a handful of varieties, like the West Coast with guacamole and Monterey Jack to…

Best In Memphis
by td15326 at Citysearch
Nothing like a Huey burger, basket of fries a cold Busch longneck! I was born and raised in the Memphis area and consumed many of the mentioned products and stop at Hueys every time I'm in town. It's definitely the best burger in Memphis and the second best burger I've ever eaten. You'd have to go to Port of Call in New Orleans for a better burger

Great burgers
by aodhan51 at Citysearch
Really great burgers--always. Red beans and rice good too. Bottomless tea and soft drinks. Cute ambience, but the toothpicks in the ceilings are tacky--one fell in my plate once, and I asked for and got a replacement meal, but you hate to be on guard for falling toothpicks.
- Pros: Good food, fun atmosphere
- Cons: Those damn toothpicks

I have lived in Memphis for 11 years and have been to all of the burger places. The burgers at Huey's are very good, but I wouldn't necessary say they are the best. The place is usually crowded and cramped, and the service is S-L-O-W. Toothpicks in a ceiling does not make a great burger!!!
- Pros: good burger
- Cons: slow service , crowded
