For City Silo Table + Pantry, healthy eating isn’t just a lifestyle — it’s a love language. With roots deeply planted in Memphis, this community-focused restaurant has made it its mission to reimagine comfort food into something both familiar and nourishing.
Founded on the belief that meals can be satisfying and health-conscious, City Silo was created as a space where everyone — vegans, vegetarians, and omnivores alike — can come together around the table. Rebekah and Scott Tashie were inspired by the rich traditions of Southern hospitality and sought to create a dining experience that reflects the same warmth and sense of belonging while prioritizing mindful ingredients and clean eating.
Today, with three locations in East Memphis and Germantown, Tennessee, and Little Rock, Arkansas, City Silo has grown into a beloved destination for those who want to eat well and feel good doing it.
At the center of its culinary philosophy is the idea of “conscious comfort food,” meals that nourish the body without sacrificing flavor or familiarity. The menu aims to balance energizing nutrition and the comfort of Southern fare, making it an ideal choice for everything from recharging after a workout to a leisurely lunch with friends. It’s food that fuels without weighing you down — both hearty and health-forward.
The menu showcases fresh foods made with wholesome ingredients, packed with options for a wide variety of dietary lifestyles. Highlights include all-day breakfast, colorful salads, nutrient-packed açaí bowls, inventive tacos, sandwiches, and an impressive selection of coffee, smoothies, and fresh-daily cold-pressed juices. Whether you’re craving a protein-rich plate or a light and flavorful plant-based dish, there’s something for everyone. Clean ingredients take center stage — locally sourced, organic where possible, and always prepared with care and intention.
For those looking to embrace a lifestyle of abundance and wellness, City Silo offers a path forward. The dishes are familiar and refreshing — substantial enough to satisfy cravings yet healthful enough to support wellness goals. It’s a place where clean eating doesn’t mean sacrificing joy or taste.
Recently, City Silo entered a new chapter with the relocation of its original East Memphis location from Sanderlin Avenue to a newly expanded space at Mendenhall and Poplar. The move presented an exciting opportunity for the establishment to grow alongside its loyal customer base. The new space features a larger kitchen, enhanced service flow, expanded outdoor seating, and a bright, cozy atmosphere perfect for gathering with friends, meeting over lunch, or simply enjoying a quiet solo meal.
This relocation has allowed the restaurant to continue striving for warm customer service and attention to detail regarding customer interactions. The ambiance invites guests to linger, connect, and feel at ease, just as comfort dining should.
City Silo’s care for the community extends beyond the plate. Their sustainability efforts include partnerships with local farmers, ethically sourced ingredients, recycling and composting programs, and Project Green Fork certification — a testament to their dedication to reducing waste and cultivating environmental stewardship.
As they look forward, City Silo remains grounded in gratitude. Their journey to becoming a beloved destination for those who want to eat well and feel good while doing it would not have been possible without the incredible support of the Memphis community. In return, they’re proud to offer a dining experience that feeds the body, nurtures the soul, and makes healthy living feel right at home.
