![]() Owners Rebekah and Scott Tashie have been hanging out since grade school, way before most of us had ever heard of tempeh or #sustainability. It’s not just a talking point or catchy way to get you in the door it’s just who we are. Farmington Blvd, Suite 2 90 thecitysilo.It may sound cliché, but we really are all about community at City Silo. We’re really excited about this it’s been fun trying to come up with the cocktails we’ll use on our menu, and we think they’re going to be a big hit.”Ĭity Silo Table + Pantry’s new location can be found at the Saddle Creek Shopping Center 7605 W. “You can expect to see something like a beet margarita, or maybe carrot juice mixed in with mezcal. “We’ll be incorporating our own juices,” adds Rebekah. When we eventually roll this out, the list will officially be the ‘City Silo Cocktail Menu’ for the whole brand.” “We’re not going crazy with our selection,” says Scott, “but what we do have is something we’ve put a lot of time and thought into. The Tashies have selected a small, carefully curated liquor section, picking out a specific variety of vodka, tequila, mezcal, rum, and gin. One big change for City Silo Germantown is the inclusion of a full bar area. We’ve kept the same menu items, and when we add new options, like some tacos that we did recently, we’ll have that at both stores.” Expect to see more small plates and limited-time dishes added to the menu going forward. “We have the City Silo brand,” explains Scott, “and we really want that to be consistent in everything we do. Longtime fans of the original City Silo on Sanderlin Avenue won’t have to worry about their favorite foods being exclusive to one location the menu will be the same, whether diners are in East Memphis or Germantown. Don’t leave anything on the table when it comes to preparation.” “All you can do is just prepare and give it everything you’ve got. “There’s always the fear of the unknown when you’re opening a new restaurant,” says Scott. ![]() While the pandemic might have put others off, the Tashies were undeterred. And while not specifically designed for the pandemic, the 3,500-square-foot space allows plenty of social distancing, both inside and on the outdoor patio. ![]() Luckily, their landlord at Saddle Creek was flexible, allowing the couple to adjust to the new normal and make sure everything was in order. They originally signed their lease in February 2020, but the pandemic delayed their plans. The COVID-19 pandemic certainly gave the journey more ups and downs than the Tashies would have liked. The familiar tastes, ideas, and concepts from the Mid-South are all here diners just won’t feel like they need a nap afterwards. The restaurant’s hook is its “clean eating.” It’s comfort food with a conscience, taking the best components of Southern cuisine and gently nudging them in a healthier direction. With demand at their original City Silo so high, they knew they’d have to add a second location. ![]() It’s everything that Memphians loved about the original City Silo, just updated, refined, and honed to a T using all the experience owners Scott and Rebekah Tashie have gained since opening the first franchise in East Memphis in 2017. Bask in the warm glow of light flowing in through wide windows, breathe in the fresh air cleansed by an abundance of greenery lining the walls, and sip on a fruity burst from one of the restaurant’s signature smoothies. The first thing to do in City Silo Table + Pantry in Germantown is relax. Scott and Rebekah Tashie opened a second location last month of their popular City Silo Table + Pantry restaurant.
