I used to love coming here but the last 3 visits have been horrible I guess now I’ll just be coming here for the desserts. It started with the steak sandwich meat being skimpy now it’s both I wish I would’ve gotten a pic of the steak sandwich it like had 3 pieces of meat on it and yes this is the gyro pictured yes I know I couldn’t believe it either.
Its hard not to grab lunch at Kwik Chek. The kimchi burrito, the mandu, or the sandwiches like the Ninja or Falafel are all great. I find myself often craving one or all of them. There is even bi bim bop or gyro!The workers and owners are always pleasant, too. One of the best parts of Midtown and Memphis for sure!
I love this place so much. Try it once, crave it forever. I like the Greek Sandwich. The atmosphere is really unique because its also a convenience store. The service here is usually pretty fast and they have a relaxed friendly attitude. My only complaint is I wish the seating was a little more comfortable. Besides that, great place for a kwik bite.
This place is awesome. I frequented this place a lot in college and loved the mix of Korean AND Greek food. The Trojan sandwich and bi bim bop all stood out. If youre vegetarian, the falafel is pretty good and as well as the teriyaki with no chicken and extra cheese, its surprisingly awesome.
Great deli with a Korean style. The Bi Bim Bop Burger is always wonderful. Great flavor combination. If you dont order the burger, do yourself a favor and order the Bi Bim Bop bowl, fresh ingredients and warm to your tummy. May be better when the weather outside is cooler. I have tried a few other sandwiches on the menu from time to time and they do not disappoint. Dont let the convenience store look fool you. It make take a little bit to be ready but the food is worth the wait.
THE BEST LEMON BLUEBERRY CHEESECAKE YOU WILL EVER EAT !!
Memphis’ best kept secret!! Kwik Chek has been here forever! They have the best gyros!! They kimchi fried rice is a must try along with the bi bim bop and the bi bim bop burger!! Everything on the menu is delicious but these are my favorites and are hard to choose from and stay away from!! The muffuletta is also noteworthy and many of their other sandwiches are delicious!! Kwik Chek is a Memphis staple and a most beloved eatery!!
Came here on our way through Memphis and I am so glad we did! The Bi Bim Bop was absolutely incredible. Super authentic, flavorful, fresh and hot! Affordable too! Great little gem serving up Korean dishes, Mediterranean food and sandwiches. 10/10 would recommend!
Small sandwich shop with hoagies, wraps, and gyros. It’s a random kind of place but has indoor seating and delicious sandwiches! I’d return again. They have great service. Order cookies and drinks from the coolers to go with your meal. Or stop in for a bite.
One of the best sandwich shops around. The Ninja is so so so good and unique to kwik chek. I could literally drink the Ninja sauce. Call ahead and its very quick too. Dont visit Memphis without trying a sandwich from here.
The servers do not use gloves. I SAW 2 LADIES HANDLING FOOD WITH NO GLOVES. UNSANITARY
My husband and I were very disappointed by the new way you all make the bibimbap. It was much better before.
Their muffulettas are fantastic, as is the kimchi fried rice. Highly recommend.
The most bizarre little place - when I first pulled up to meet friends there, I said to myself, Oh its over here next to that little convenience store. Little did I know, it IS that little convenience store!Its certainly a unique atmosphere, but if youre into it, its fun. It really does feel like walking into a gas station that had all the center shelving ripped out, and they serve an interesting menu of half Korean food, half Mediterranean. Dont let the places appearance fool you - the food is great. If you want to buy a bag of chips or a pack of candy, you can do that too.
The kimchi fried rice here is delectable.
Great sandwiches as always. Parking situation hectic as they have grown. I almost left after trying to park 7 minutes. 30+ min wait on 2 muffalettas... prep folks dont use gloves I see??? Kinda disturbing!!! debating if I will return based on the no glove issue. hmph... had I not waited so long would have given them 4 stars
Its all great! The Dragon and less spicy Ninja are always delicious!!!
The food is Great I Love Greek food
Dang gong good! Korean food in a convenient store? The Bi Bim Bop burger is best burger Ive had in years. What a find! Run...dont walk there now.
Delicious and spicy. I am hooked on tve dragon wrap and spanikopita. The spicy sauce and cucumber sauce are nice add-ons. Great food. Nice folks, too! A go-to spot for carry out.
Dont be fooled by the gas station style facade. Find parking, go in, order the bibimbap, grab a drink while you wait. Then, experience the sensory overload as the steaming bowl is placed before you and your life is forever changed. I havent ordered anything else, but I dont need to. Service is always quick and the quality is consistent.
I absolutely love this place! The staff are very friendly and food is amazing. The place has a very local traditional feel to it, so I would highly recommend going to try it out!I’m not sure if the people who give less than 5 stars are just angry people, because there is no way anyone could ever get bad customer service at this amazing place. So I highly suggest trying out the place for yourself.
Love the bi bim bap and its my favorite place to get it. Their hummus is also really good. Havent had anything other main dish than the bi bim bap but it is definitely worth the drive
This place is great. Great. Awesome. Just go.As for people concerned about gloves, your Uncle Steve with 7 rat terriers doesn’t wear gloves to make his hot wings and your aunt Linda smoking Marlboro’s doesn’t wear gloves to make her apple dumplings. Chill. lol. I’m sure they wash their hands. There are MANY establishments that don’t use gloves, you just don’t know because it’s behind closed doors.
Newbie here, I would call my order in the next time, the wait time inside the restaurant was longer than I expected and it was pretty warm.I ordered the Korean fried rice and the Gyro and bought a side of Kimchi.Kimchi and Korean fried rice were really yummy. Highly recommend trying at least once if your tastebuds can handle spice. Would go back and make sure I ask for an over easy egg.The gyro had too much tzaziki (sp?) sauce and not enough tanginess from tomatoes and lettuce. It was actually overstuffed, the gyro wrap was hard and tough to chew. Wouldn’t order again.
Delicious! Highly recommend
Food is amazing! Especially late night! Lots of options! Its in a good spot with parking all over, you just have to know TN parking. Yes it gets crowded but seems like there is always a good flow and you will have somewhere to sit. Employees are on top of it to get your order out. Try any of the FAT sandwiches and get the season fries!; dont forget a shake!
Food was so good! I ordered the Okinawa Taco Rice and the flavor of the beef was to die for. I would certainly order it again. Ive heard great things about the gyro. Food was hot and ready in a short amount of time. Highly recommend.UPDATE: The gyro is also to die for!!
The SpicyTurkey Muffaleta with Olive Paste is My all Time Favorite, Wow! but, you Cant go Wrong, with Anything You Order from here!!! The Veggie Pita 🥙 with Hummus and Sprouts is also Very Good!!!! Yum😉
Ive ordered the same sandwiches for 20 years . When calling in an order it all depends on whos there. if its the mgmt,owner looking people usually no problems. If its just the dirty hippies that typically are the ones who work here and make the food, sometimes they just let the phone ring and choose not to answer. at some point we give up and find something else to eat.
I read all of the reviews of this place, and decided to try Kwik Chek out for myself! The people that give this place a negative review are full of chit. This place is awesome, and the hospitality is 5*. I highly recommend trying the gyros, cause they are absolutely delicious!! This place is a true gem of Memphis!! Ill be returning for sure.
Tasty food and great service! I highly recommend.
I have always loved this place. I am concerned about the fact that the food is handled without gloves. This is an extremely unsafe practice. I will certainly go back if they will handle the food in a sanitary manner.
Ive been enjoying the food from this place for over 2 decades. They have a nice variety of excellent sandwiches, several vegetarian options and also have a good selection of microbrew beer brands. Put in an order, grab a fancy beer out of the cooler and sip on it while you wait for them to prepare your food. Come to think of it, Im not even sure if its legal to drink beer inside an establishment that doesnt have a permit to serve alcohol, but no ones ever said a word to me about it. I always have a samurai sword strapped to my back, so maybe thats why. So bring your sword just in case.
Kwik Check has been an all time favorite of mine. The quality of food and service is undeniably worth the tough Overton Square parking situation. We all know how fickle that can be. Id walk to get one of those beautifully crafted sandwiches. As a midtowner for many years, I feel like this should carry some weight. Kwik Check is a staple.
In a town full of fried chicken, BBQ and terribly unhealthy vegetarian food that really wishes it was made of meat. You are a Godsend. My lighthouse. Thank you for some real f@#%ing food.
Slower than Christmas 40 mins for 3 sandwhiches told it would be 15 .
Excellent food. A bit concerning that the day after our last order that there was an attempt to charge an airline ticket. Hope they werent involved purposefully or accidentally. In any event, enjoy some good food but consider cash.
I wish i didnt see what i saw... but i saw him, without gloves on, one hand on the knife and one hand on raw chicken. He turned the corner to help me, wiping his hands off on his apron. Touched the register and i asked him to please wash your hands before helping me and he said he was clean. I couldnt risk it because of my health condition and left. So gross. PLEASE LEARN AND FOLLOW HEALTH CODE!!!
Howcome this place doesnt have a Michelin Star??? Everything, and I do mean EVERYTHING in here is absolutely delicious. If you thought no place could be good at everything, you were wrong. The Korean dishes are incredible, the Greek inspired sandwiches, the Falafel (from where does Falafel come anyway?), the fried dumplings, the fried rice, the kimchi, everything is delicious and packed with flavor and textures.And the desserts, dont get me started on the desserts!! If its your last day on Earth, please go to this place.
Excellent bibimbap and gyro (although the latter was a bit greasy). Would recommend!
This place used to be really good, their bi bim bop was what I always went for. After the popularity grew they raised their prices. I didnt have a problem with that but what has really upset me was that the past 6 months they have significantly reduced the amount of food on their plates. First they started using less beef, then the started using less everything! I took my brother and his family there a few days ago and I truly was embarrassed by the amount of food they received on their plate. It was the size of a very small appetizer. If Im paying $11 for a plate please make it worth it. I probably wont be going there for a very long time. They could definitely clean the place up a little better too.
Amazing food! Everything is incredible. Cheep unimposing. Feels like the best kept secret in midtown
Love love love the food. Ive had almost everything on the menu and its all been great. The Ninja and the spicy pork sandwich are my favorites, but everything is a winner!
My first time using grub hub and Kwik Chek. Food was on time and was excellent! Great food great service!
If you like Greek food then you will love Kwik Chek... they have the BEST gyros and muffaletas in Memphis. Stop in or order on uber eats for delivery. The food is hot and fresh... if youve never had either you definitely need to go to Kwik Chek and get one. 🏆
Love the bi bim bop, will come back for more.
I was a bit hesitant to eat here at first. My vegetarian boyfriend was always begging me to try it... but the store front looked like a convenience store at a gas station, not a deli...Since there arent a ton of places that offer MULTIPLE vegetarian dishes, I finally gave in.AND once I tried thier falafel hummus pita, I was hooked!! Huge sandwich & oh so tasty! My favorite! & cheap! $12 lunch for 2 with chips is cheaper than any sub shop.One of the best places in midtown!! especially if your looking for a quick, fresh, low cost lunch. Or if your partner is a vegetarian! ;)
Amazing food at this place. The Memphis and the Gyro are TO DIE FOR!
My order was cancelled multiple times on Ubereats. When I finally called to place the order manually over the phone I was told they do not serve customers with food allergies. I ordered something different that did not contain tomatoes. When it arrived only half the order was actually delivered. I was not refunded for the missing food.
Great sandwiches!Went in there with a large group and had everything done in 15 minsExcellent lunch spot
Best locally owned wraps, dolmas, and kimchi!! This place is packed into a corner and never hae parking because its SOOOOOO damn good!Swing around the corner for the extra spaces, and start off your midtown crawl with a local smash.My FAVORITE is hands down the 🔥Dragon!🔥 Its super simple and brilliantly tasty.
I know everyone is in titled to their opinions and that most 1 star reviews are from angry customers that just want to twist stories to make them look good and therefore make the restaurant look bad. Looking at you, Su Su. My fiancee Eathan worked at this fine restaurant for some years. They do wear gloves and they are really friendly. Their food is delicious and the price is awesome. I have never had a bad experience at this establishment. As for the parking, yes it is not enough but they cant help that best on their location. THEY NEVER USE MOLDY OR ROTTEN FOOD! THAT IS A LIE! If you want to eat local support restaurants like Kwik Chek! And understand they are doing the best they can!
I LOVE Kwik Chek! This place is a true midtown gem. The casual vibe and old school set up are so refreshing compared to all the new and flashy attractions in Overton Square. I love that Kwik Chek hasn’t changed and offers the same great food. I have been coming here since high school and have never been disappointed! My boyfriend loooves the Bi Bim Bop and I’m a huge fan of the veggie delight. He is trying to make his way through the whole menu and loving it all so far! The owners and staff are so genuine and kind. They really put a lot of love into the food here and you can tell. Get a peek of the real midtown at Kwik Chek.
Awesome little hole in the wall in midtown. Was definitely confused as to how it worked the first time I visited (go order at the counter, sit down and wait for your food, grab whatever sides/drinks you want while youre waiting, pay at the register at the end), but its cheap and delicious and super fast. I recommend the turkey club, the kimchi fried rice, and the Bi Bim Bop.
Tasty eclectic food. Dont miss the be bim bop. Service is a little spotty and the seats arent all that comfortable but apparently the food is so good I dont care because I keep going back and still love it.
Very interesting fusion cusine spot. Steak sandwich is highly recommended.
Surprisingly good bi bim bop for a mini market!
Everytime I go in, I get great food. Excellent selection for vegetarians. The bi bim bop with tofu and three cheese delight are the best! Definitely check it out if you havent yet :)
Kwik Chek is simply the best place in town to get a sandwich . And the Bi Bim bop is to die for. And they have GIANt muffulettas that are bomb.
Great grilled wraps, sandwiches, soup...plus selection of beers, Greek salad, dolmas and more. All delicious!
Great little Korean/Greek/Sandwich spot in Midtown. The couple korean dishes they have on the menu are the best in Memphis and the Bulgogi Burger may as well be the best burger in Memphis.
This is where I go for most of my lunches. They have a great selection of sandwiches especially for vegetarians. I am not a vegetarian but the sandwiches at Kwik-Chek are amazing. Great atmosphere and prices are very reasonable too.
I wish I could say something nice about this place but I cant. Today as me and 2 friends went to make an order, a friend asked what the young man would suggest on the menu with turkey. The young man kindly stated unfortunately, I am vegan so I cant really give a suggestion. Then suddenly, his employer came up to him and yelled at him in front of customers with an attitude stating not everyone is vegan, no one cares if youre vegan, some people like meat. He was not at all forcing his ways on us. And if anything, I am vegetarian and my other friend use to be one. I then spoke up for the young man stating how admirable it was that he was vegan. I even suggested looking for a new job because he didnt deserve that treatment! I could never give that place any of my money, i dont care how good people claim their sandwiches to be! Not only is it completely uncalled for her to yell at her employee for simply having a different lifestyle, which is discriminatory, but to do it in front of customers is down right wrong. I gave the young man a nice tip, shared some kind words, and I hope he finds another place that can appreciate him. A smart employer would talk to him privately and even add vegan options to their menu as veganism is a growing lifestyle. This place should be boycotted!
You would never guess by looking at it that this place is the best place in Midtown to get a gyro. Very good.
They have good sandwiches but their service is kinda slow.
The Bi Bim Bop is straight fire. So good.
How in the ever loving **** do you run out of RICE!?
Omg DONT EVER go to Kwik Chek! they are so cheap! you order a plate of bi bim bop and its like an appetizer size plate but you pay around $12! Didnt have a good experience at all :(
Kwik Chek is located on the outskirts of Overton Square.Put in your order, grab a Memphis Flyer newspaper, sit at the counter and people watch Madison Avenue passers by, as you munch on a tasty sandwich.Ive been going to Kwik Chek for a decade. Its one of my go-to sandwich shops.They dont just have sandwiches, they have grab-and-go items, and hot noodle/rice/veggie dishes. I hear their hot meals are incredible.However, Im a sandwich girl so thats my main focus for this review. Aside from the menu of specialty sandwiches, you can make your own.Dine in or get your food to-go.They have subs, rolls and sliced bread. You can keep your sandwich cold or have it toasted in what I think is a pizza oven.I order two sandwiches on the regular: The Veggie Delight or The Turk.The Veggie Delight is out of this world. Vegetables mixed in a Greek yogurt-type sauce with hummus wrapped in a pita. YUM!!!!! The Turk is a turkey sandwich on a roll thats crispy on the outside and tender in the middle.A sandwich is but a lonely slab of layered fodder without tasty chips and a drink.Kwik Chek has a wall of chips with all kinds of varieties. They also have a wide variety of drinks and sweets, from candy to baked cookies and cakes. The cakes are so good.I also love the grab-and-go deviled eggs and salad, if Im in a rush.FYI...Orders usually take 15-20 minutes. Parking is slim pickings. If youre happy with your order, consider leaving a buck or two in the tip jar for the sandwich team.A sandwich, chips and drink usually cost $10-$11.Kwik Chek is worth a try!
The best sandwiches!!
Its been 15 years since Ill been there but the muffuletta is still the best in the city when it was callled the mighty muffuletta now its called the Big Muf still delicious!
Good bi bim bop
Best sandwiches in Memphis.
They have a pretty good falafal sandwich.
This place is awesome. The Greek sandwich and Pajeon are my favorite items.
Ive been to Kwik Chek many times. I keep going back for the food, not the service.
Love the bibimbop!
The best of Mediterranean, Deli and Korean food
Best sandwiches in Memphis!
I love their food
