Memphis Restaurant Owners: Here's How Gente Puts Your Spot in Front of 170,000+ Food Lovers

Memphis is world-famous for its music and barbecue — but with so much tourist attention on Beale Street and Graceland, independent restaurants across the rest of the city can easily get overlooked.

Gente is an Instagram account with over 170,000 followers dedicated to discovering and sharing independent restaurants. No stock photos, no generic ads — we send someone to your restaurant to actually experience it, capture real content, and share it with an audience actively looking for their next favorite spot.

Here's how it works: we coordinate a visit, our content creator experiences your menu firsthand, and we turn that into content that goes straight to our followers in Memphis and beyond. No retainer, no long-term commitment — just one collaboration built to put your restaurant in front of the right people.

Restaurants we've featured have seen real traffic from an audience that trusts our recommendations, because we only cover places we genuinely think are worth the visit.

If you run a restaurant in Memphis and want to get discovered, DM us "MEMPHIS" on Instagram @gente.
