March 18, 2016 LPI Memphis

"Onix is moving its restaurant/jazz club from South Main to Madison Avenue's mile of resurgent blocks that stretches from Cooper to Belvedere.

Onix needs more space, especially for the jazz players who perform for diners, owner Curtis Chism said Friday, adding, "The band is cramped up.''

The restaurant will move from about 2,500 square feet at its existing location at 412 S. Main to 4,215 square feet at 1680 Madison. That's on the northwest corner of Madison and Belvedere, across Belvedere from Zinnie's pub."
