“Excellent service, great taste, generous portions of food..Visited 3 times during our stay at Nashville...Excellent option for vegetarians...Would highly recommend!!”
“Each time we fly through Nashville, we stopped here to eat. The food is really good, and the service is top-notch. The manager, Maverick? I think, will be seen busing tables during busy times. The wait staff is always friendly. This time we had Tracy- a spunky gal with a great attitude. No matter what you order you can’t go wrong with a side of their queso. That wonderfully smooth hot cheese dip is good on everything. Also, most of the time we split when we go here- we get the double patty burger- it’s excellent!”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“The corn ribs were the star of the show, but everything was delicious. Highly recommend the Ribeye steak. Absolutely delicious food, wonderful service and beautiful views over the open kitchen”

“We were in town for just a few days. Looked for Italian near our hotel and read great reviews of Caffe Nonna. It lived up to those. My husband and I split a salad and the Nonna lasagna and the tiramisu for dessert. It was all delicious. The two types of bread were both excellent. Would highly recommend this little gem!”
“This was my first time eating here and sure won't be my last. The food was excellent! The portions are a nice size! The food just melted in my mouth!!!”
“This has recently become one of my favorite plant based spots in Nashville after trying them at Hunters Station last weekend, then having my boyfriend go back later that night and the next day to grab us food. The fish sandwich tastes exactly like fish and the cheesy potatoes compliment it to well. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that they open up on a more consistent basis but for now I’m ok with stalking their insta page to see where their going to be. 10/10”
“Some of the BEST flavors and service in Nashville. The drinks and dishes are a cut above. I cannot wait to go back 😍❤️”
“FIRST TIME VISITOR W/5 FRIENDS FOR DINNER & COCKTAILS. MICHELLE GREETED US IMMEDIATELY. SMILES & VERY WELCOMING. SHE WAS HELPFUL TO RECOMMEND FOODS & TELL US THE WHAT DRINKS SHE WOULD RECOMMEND. HER ATTITUDE WAS UPLIFTING & PLEASANT. KEEP CHECKING BACK WITH US AFTER FOOD DEL'D AND ASKED ABOUT COCKTAILS REFILLS. HER SMILE WAS CONTAGIOUS. WHAT A DELIGHTFUL EXPERICENCE TO HAVE HER AS OUR SERVER. HATS OFF TO MICHELLE!!!! LOVE THE ATMOSPHERE OF OLE RED TOO”

“I was in the Nashville location on 1/28 during my visit to the area. It was packed but everything moved quickly, efficiently and the staff was so very friendly to everyone. That didn’t stop just at the start but all throughout our time there. The lady helping us (her name was Isis, I believe) even followed back up with us on something. Her and the manager went above and beyond to take care of us on something we didn’t even ask them to. Btw, nothing happened, they were just out of something, it came back in and they took care of us. A measure most would not do but she found us and made sure to take care. Now THAT is friendly customer service! The food is so amazing, y’all. This is going to be my new joint for every single visit to Nashville from now on. Hot dayum!!”
“We had to come to this institution of Southern Meat and 3 Restaurants. As a Chef, I always seek out the best places in the cities I travel to. They won a James Beard Award in 2009. Met the Owner, Rose, and her son, Cahill. They bought is dessert which was this awesome Bread Pudding and Peach Pie that was just incredible. This is a place that shows what True Southern Food and True Southern Hospitality are all about. Thank You”

“The Authentique is a charming French wine bar nestled in the heart of East Nashville, where the warm hospitality of owners Philippine and Alexandre sets the stage for a delightful dining experience. The cozy atmosphere, combined with top-tier customer service, creates a welcoming environment for guests. The menu features a delightful array of sweet and savory crêpes, prepared with recipes passed down through generations, alongside a delectable steak tartare and carefully curated charcuterie boards. The wine selection is impressive, with the option of fun wine flights to complement the exquisite flavors of the dishes. The restaurant also offers great happy hour deals and nightly specials, with the added bonus of live music on Fridays and Saturdays. The overall experience at The Authentique is a true gem not to be missed. Bon appétit!”
“This may be the best place we have ever eaten in Nashville. The service. The vibe. The food. All superb! The garlic bread with cream cheese was divine! The salad was delicious. The risotto with lobster was tasty but the ricotta tortellini and the short rib with polenta was (and excuse the phrasing) orgasmic. Highly recommend 👌🏽”
“Beautiful experience in a beautiful space. The open concept with the pristine kitchen right in the middle. Watching the chefs work to deliver unique presentations. Service was outstanding. It shows that all staff really love what they do. It is hard to describe the dishes, you just have to experience them. I’d recommend the feast.”
“First time at the new location and thoroughly enjoyed it. The ambience is great and service was outstanding (Thank you Grant). We had the Frutti di Mare and Veal Saltimbocca and both were equally outstanding. Nice wine list as well. Dress business casual as most fine dining restaurants are, so best to avoid dressing overly casual (Swartz, flip-flops, tank tops, caps, etc).”
“The best dining experience I’ve ever had. The chef’s choice was an awesome choice! Everything that came out was delicious. Our servers were wonderful especially our waitress who had us sign her Nancy Drew book. That added to the experience! Can’t wait to go back!”

“Couldn't have asked for a better birthday dining experience! The staff was kind and attentive, live music was classy and calm, and the food was SO good. They brought a banana walnut bread on the house and card signed by the staff, so thoughtful!”

“The owner is the sweetest most genuine man you’ll meet! My car was broken into and not only did he help me get camera footage, crawl in a dumpster to get some items that were stolen and thrown away but gave me a free pizza and drink since my lunch box was stolen too! The pizza was amazing but the service and people that work there are even better. He’s a saint!”
“The chicken and biscuits from Raise the Roost inside the 7-Eleven on Newtown Road and Providence are, by far, the worst I've ever had. The chicken was either overcooked and dry, with burnt outsides and —likely due to improper fryer temperatures or incorrect timer settings. The coating was thick and cakey, indicating poor preparation. Even the green beans had no seasoning or taste. I recommend not using salt if you decide to season. To top it off, the bathrooms were in horrible and smelly condition. I would've returned the food if I had time. Thumbs down! I took pictures but you cannot upload”
“This place was absolutely mind blowing, a must try if you’re in Nashville! Everything from the atmosphere to the service and food was on par. Honestly, there’s not one specific thing that I could recommend because each dish itself was just amazing! As soon as you taste each dish you can tell they’ve put a lot of time and effort into crafting each item on their menu! Just go…”

“This is a must visit and goesvall the way back to old Greer Stadium across the street. They used to have a secret menu locked in a samsonite briefcase super glued to the wall. Best hotdogs anywhere and make sure to get sweet potato fries. Distinctly Nashville. Where the locals eat lunch.”

“Been coming here for a while and it makes sense why they’ve been around this long. It’s always consistent, always busy, and just a good vibe every time you walk in. The food holds up, the portions are solid, and nothing feels overcomplicated. Also worth mentioning the crew is great. The team working there is always super friendly and on it, which makes a big difference. One of those spots you can count on.”

“My sister, daughter, and I stumbled upon Assembling Food Hall last night before the Mumford and Sons concert at Bridgestone. We were very impressed. It was clean, spacious, and had a variety of food and drinks. It was definitely not crowded like all the bars. The prices were decent too. This will definitely be our go to spot from now on.”
“My wife visited here about 6 months ago and got coffee on her way to the airport and hasn’t stopped talking about it since. We’re here for New Years and she made sure we came by. I got an iced white mocha, which is better than anyone I’ve ever had anywhere else and we also shared a Biscoff cheesecake which was absolutely incredible. The staff is super friendly and the coffee is amazing, you can’t go wrong if you come check this place out.”
“Great experience with the friendliest staff in town. The food is outstanding and well worth a visit. A local’s favorite for sure.”
“The food was incredible and service was top notch. Highly recommend if you love pizza, pasta, salads and fabulous Tiramisu!!”
“Eddie V’s Prime Seafood is one of the most respectable upscale restaurants in the city, and the food lives up to the hype! As their name implies, their seafood is fantastic, probably the best in the entire city! They have a policy that every seafood served at Eddie V’s was alive in the ocean less than 36 hours prior! Anything left over is donated, which is impressive! And you can taste its incredible freshness throughout the meal! There are only 30 locations of Eddie V’s in 15 states, but the quality is hardly reminiscent of chain restaurant food. It’s truly exquisite! And we have very high standard having dined at Michelin-starred eateries all over the world.
The scallops, lobster, and lobster bisque are easily the best in Nashville, and we’ve dined at every high-class restaurant Music City has to offer! The butter poached lobster mashed potatoes are incredible, extra creamy topped with buttery lobster and a beurre blanc sauce. The truffle mac is equally stupendous, with a three-cheese blend, truffle oil, and thinly shaved truffles imported from France! While most upscale restaurants tend to make a very strong truffle mac that has overpowering flavors, the chef at Eddie V’s manages to make this, and all dishes, subtle and flavorful without overdoing it.
Just as amazing as the seafood are the steaks. Since they had a Japanese A5 Wagyu in the building at $40 an ounce, something they don’t have every night, I took advantage of that! As expected, the highest grade of Japanese beef did not disappoint, and the chef prepared it to perfection. That impossibly tender steak seasoned beautifully just meted in my mouth, probably the second best steak I’ve eaten in Nashville! The ponzu sauce, one of three that accompanied the steak, was delicious. The Korean inspired gochujang was also good, but maybe not perfect for this style of steak. But the wasabi paste was the winner, a perfect compliment to the beef without being very spicy, just wonderfully flavorful. Like all dishes here, they’ve impeccably balanced flavor with subtly! The desserts aren’t bad either, but they pale in comparison to the beef, seafood, and side dishes!”
Drive-Thru Restaurants
“All around great experience. The hostess was kind and seated us for our reservation quickly. It’s a very small space so a reservation is your best bet. Easy free parking. Server was kind and attentive and helpful with our decisions.
Food: shared the inari, goma-ae, and chirashi bowl to start between 3 people. They added an extra inari as it usually comes with 2 pieces. The inari and goma-ae were good but the chirashi bowl had the it factor. Then, I got the miso clam ramen and a chicken katsu. I think I’d go for the chicken curry rice next time. Sister and aunt loved their dishes: creamy bacon udon and yellowtail collar. If I went back it would be for the chirashi bowl. Finished off our meal sharing the parfait and it was worth it!”
“Korean is my favorite cuisine. I was delighted to find this wonderful restaurant. It's in a small strip mall, the exterior is not inviting. Ambiance inside was very comfortable, very clean. Service was professional. One thing I use to judge ethnic restaurants is how many people of that ethnicity are there. Of the several tables occupied I was the only nonasian diner, so I assume authenticity. I had seafood soft tofu stew. It was delicious. Korean restaurants typically serve banchan side dishes, this served them, each was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant if you want to experience excellent Korean dining. I'll be back!”

“The bartender tonight was amazing. I had a great chat with him, and it seems he's leaving to a new adventure soon. Not great for this place, since he has a real passion for what he does, and I think they're losing a great guy. Best of luck on your new adventures! Food was about as expected, not the drinks were phenomenal!”
“Never thought we'd find Uzbek food - let alone Michelin-recognized Uzbek food - in Nashville, but we are so glad we did! Just a few blocks from Centennial Park, it was a great spot to grab lunch. We tried the tomato-onion-cucumber salad, the chicken-cheese samosa, and the Uyghur fried noodles. The salad was very basic, not much in terms of dressing, but the veggies were fresh. The samosa was not like an Indian samosa, it was more oblong and the chicken was on a skewer inside the dough, with onions and a scant amount of cheese. The flavor was great, the breading was fresh and flaky, and the mild pepper sauce it came with was very tasty. The fried noodles were the star of the meal. Handmade noodles make all the difference, and these were spectacular - chewy and soft and just delicious, mixed with flavorful beef, bell peppers, and topped with a fried egg. It was so good! We sat on their beautiful enclosed patio, and the server was very friendly. We will come back next time we're in town.”
“FIVE STARS ALL THE WAY!! Every small plate we got was exceptional! Hard to choose a favorite but please get the risotto and the sticky ribs! Our waitress, Kensington, was top notch- very attentive and knowledgeable! Absolutely fabulous experience. We’ll definitely be back!”

“I would consider this one of the best quick food places to eat in Nashville. The food was great and the service was extremely nice and fast with orders. We had the crispy magic dumplings first which were exactly that. Magic! The other dishes were an order of noodles and pad kra pow. Both full of flavor and spice like no other. Simple sit down restaurants dont usually have these types of flavor options for under $100. Can't beat it.”
“Absolutely great food, great atmosphere and incredible service. Don't miss out on the experience 🌹”

“It’s been a number of years since we frequented Kayne Prime due to a move out of state. Last night’s experience was excellent. We were celebrating my husband’s retirement and each staff member we encountered asked about it, congratulated him and took care to make it notable. You also upped your game with the cute goat cheese tarts and palette cleanser. Last night was truly an experience above the excellent meal you are known for. We are blessed to have dined in many high end restaurants and last night you especially rose to the top. Must shout out our server Matthew. He is so knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. Thank you for going above and beyond. It was a night and meal to remember!”
“We came here for a girls' night out and were absolutely blown away! The restaurant offers a stunning panoramic view of the Nashville skyline, creating a beautiful ambiance. The food was exceptional! The tuna tartare, prepared tableside, was incredibly fresh with great flavor--an absolute must-try!! The duck fat fries were perfectly crispy and served with three delicious sauces, each one better than the last. The steak was cooked perfectly medium, juicy and tender, and the seared scallop on the side was a delightful addition. This spot is perfect for a girls' night out or a rom”
“Dom was a delight - an incredible depth of knowledge about the wines, and a wonderful help in interpreting the menu - which was Amazing! On his suggestion, we got the pimiento cheese - so luscious and the prefect foil for the butter-baked saltines. Other stand-outs were the bacon and eggs, unctuous!, and the pork pate - everyone's favorite. There were 5 of us so we ordered all 5 entrees. Every single dish was an adventure - extraordinary. The pork with black walnut just was a big hit with our table. My favorite was the "Nashville Strip Steak" - a cut that was near the ribeye portion of a strip steak, I think? perfectly cooked, juicy, beefy,. The potato blinis were delicate and very tasty. Cannot wait to go back. I'm a foodie, and enjoy wine, but am not proficient. The AT ROca sparkling wine was delicious.”
“Hands down the best all around dinner experience in Nashville. Presentation was off the charts! This was our first time visiting, they had a “Christmas Eve” menu which looked delicious but we came with our hearts set on the steak; no questions asked the kitchen was happy to adjust, we received the best steak we have tasted yet! The staff was beyond wonderful, the atmosphere was perfect. Love love loved Yolan; this will be a must have every time we visit Nashville! Thank you Yolan for the perfect Christmas Eve experience!”
“My kids took me for my birthday. Walking in, the ladies at the front were very nice wishing me a happy birthday. Our waiter, Clifton, could not have been any nicer or attentive. My menu came with a Happy Birthday Anna written on it. The whole experience was really special. Everyone was just friendly and did their job over and above expectations. The food was very good. My daughter and I split a 12 oz Cowgirl ribeye which was perfect. My son got the Cowboy ribeye and he said it was amazing. The Mac n cheese was good. My DIL got the pasta primavera and she liked it. The butter cake was great and the waiter surprised me with Crème Brûlée. All very good. Great atmosphere. Definitely will be going back. Thank you for making my birthday memorable!”
“What a fantastic experience. Everything we had on our tasting menu was out of this world. We kept trying to pick our favorite dish of the night but ended up agreeing that everything was on the same incredibly high level of excellence.Fantastic place to go for birthdays, anniversaries, or very special occasions. We would love to go again!”
“I’ve visited Halls in Nashville several times, but last night was truly the best experience yet. My sister and brother-in-law came in from Memphis to celebrate my birthday, and everything—from the food to the service—was outstanding, as always. We were also fortunate to meet the owner, Tommy, who took the time to stop by our table. He went above and beyond to make the evening feel extra special, which made the celebration even more memorable. Thank you for such a wonderful experience—we’ll definitely be back! I highly recommend Halls to both locals and visitors; you won’t be disappointed.”
“We were in town to visit our daughter and boyfriend and decided to eat here. From the moment we arrived to when we left the service was top tier! One of our top three lifetime dining experiences. Shout to all the staff for making it memorable. Will definitely be back next time we are in town.”
“Excellent meal served by Dakota! Everything was great, served perfectly as ordered, prompt and professionally. We traveled in from Louisville with our only objective to eat at Jeff Ruby's and it did not disappoint. Highly recommended! Thanks again Dakota for a wonderful meal!”
“Pinewood in Nashville was amazing! We came here for a bachelorette party and had the best experience. The food was incredible, the drinks were on point, and the service made us feel like total VIPs. Our group was taken care of from start to finish and everyone was so friendly and attentive. Highly recommend Pinewood if you’re looking for a fun spot in Nashville with great vibes, great food, and great service!”
“Riley S. was awesome for our family birthday party. There were 11 of us...5 were children so there was a lot going on. Riley S. was beyond patient with us and prompt with our drink and food orders. She made the outing fun for all!”

“This is well known in the Nashville area. Had lunch there, no wait as we were there about 11:30 am. About an hour later, there was a wait.. but well worth it. It's a place you just need to go to to experience how it was back in t he 50's on Hwy 100! Staff was awesome, food fantastic!”
“What a great experience! First, food was so good! The sauce on the wings was delicious and I can’t stop raving about the baked beans and BANANA PUDDING!!!! But to top it off, our waitress went above and beyond. She gave us perfect recommendations and offered for us to try the banana pudding on the house because it’s that good… she was not kidding! Then gave an extra serving of baked beans to go because I was raving about them so much! We will 100% be back (regularly)!!”
“Dined here for the first time on my birthday this past Thursday. Met up with friends and y’all let us hang out and chat as long as we wanted. Food was amazing!! You MUST try the chicken tortilla soup!! The tilapia, ALSO AMAZING!! Love the cozy environment as it reminds me of my small town restaurants back home. We will be back every time we are in Nashville!”
“Just had a late lunch at Kien Giang Restaurant. Their BBQ Pork Bahn Mi is everything and more. The bread has the perfect crunchy yet soft ratio. The freshest vegetables and the slightest sweet BBQ pork both complimented each other. This was our 2nd visit. We will continue to eat there..”
“I can not emphasize enough that this is THE BEST VEGAN ICE CREAM ever to have come into existence. Words fail me here, so rich, the best mouth feel and a wonderful variety of flavors. I came from Michigan to Nashville with my partner and this was the highlight of the trip for me!🤤🤤🤤🤤😁”
“We went there after the January snowstorm on January 31st and were happy to find hot food that was vegetarian and flavorful and not a cold raw salad or burnt Brussels sprouts. We prefer eating hot and cooked fresh vegetarian food so we’re happy to find that with some nice ambience too. Our server girl was nice and the bar guy was happily amused that I could easily drink his spicy drink without calling BURN…haha! He made me a spicier drink and that was good too.”
“This may be the best place we have ever eaten in Nashville. The service. The vibe. The food. All superb! The garlic bread with cream cheese was divine! The salad was delicious. The risotto with lobster was tasty but the ricotta tortellini and the short rib with polenta was (and excuse the phrasing) orgasmic. Highly recommend 👌🏽”
“Had the ribs and collards yesterday evening , both were outstanding. Highly enjoyed”
“Amazing vibes, amazing food, amazing service. Everything we ordered was to die for, and this has quickly become one of our go-to Italian restaurants in Nashville. Bogan was an excellent waiter—attentive, friendly, and made the experience even more enjoyable. 10/10!”
“The best dining experience I’ve ever had. The chef’s choice was an awesome choice! Everything that came out was delicious. Our servers were wonderful especially our waitress who had us sign her Nancy Drew book. That added to the experience! Can’t wait to go back!”

“My new favorite place in Hillsboro Village! It’s not just chicken - really delicious Turkish food and the menu has so many options. Also a great place to take a group or a family.”
“We were in town for just a few days. Looked for Italian near our hotel and read great reviews of Caffe Nonna. It lived up to those. My husband and I split a salad and the Nonna lasagna and the tiramisu for dessert. It was all delicious. The two types of bread were both excellent. Would highly recommend this little gem!”
“House in a completely renovated mansion the restaurant is so well appointed the food was delicious and the service was second to none our server Andy was very accommodating and knowledgeable would highly recommend this establishment”
“The food was amazing! We had lomo, ceviche, chupe de camarones and aji de gallina. All the authentic Peruvian flavors! ❤️ Great service also!”
“One of the best meals we have ever had to one of be best soundtracks ever. Owners and staff are quality people. We will be back anytime we are in Nashville, if we can get in. :-)”
“• The Vibe: Efficient. Warm. 5-Star Service. • The Miss: Alfredo was too light. (Nothing beats Nana's). • The Hit: Scallops & Risotto were perfect. • The MVP: The desserts stole the show.”

“If you are looking for an unforgettable dining experience, Edessa Restaurant in Nashville, Tennessee is the place to be. As someone who has traveled almost 80 miles to indulge in the delicious Turkish food, I can attest that Edessa Restaurant is a hidden gem that should not be missed. The restaurant's ambiance is warm and inviting, with friendly staff who welcome you with a smile. The service is prompt, and the food always arrives hot and fresh. The menu is detailed in English, making it easy to understand, and there is no confusion when it comes to choosing what to order. What makes Edessa Restaurant stand out is the presentation of their food, which is nothing short of jaw-dropping. Each dish is beautifully plated, and the flavors are expertly balanced. The cleanliness of the restaurant is also noteworthy, ensuring a comfortable and hygienic dining experience. In my recent visits, our server Hanan was exceptional. Her name in Arabic means "Tenderness with compassion and affection," and she truly lived up to her name by providing prompt and attentive service with a smile. As someone who has tried various types of cuisine from different cultures, I can confidently say that Edessa Restaurant's Turkish food and service are unmatched. I highly recommend anyone looking to try something new and unique to visit Edessa Restaurant in Nashville, TN. I give it 5 stars, and it is undoubtedly the number-one Turkish restaurant around. Ramzi Haroun, MD, FAAP”

“Beautiful experience in a beautiful space. The open concept with the pristine kitchen right in the middle. Watching the chefs work to deliver unique presentations. Service was outstanding.

“Always consistent! Great food! Good People! Great Local Place!”
“Good vibes. Amazing staff. And the food… good grief. I haven’t had tapas so good since I was in Spain. Everything was absolutely amazing and the olive oil cake was out of this world.”
“Avo in Nashville is a must-visit! The cheese platter is absolutely incredible—perfectly curated and packed with flavor. It’s definitely a must-do when you’re there. The pesto penne primavera was amazing, with fresh, vibrant flavors that really stood out. And don’t miss out on the avocado margarita—it’s a unique and delicious twist on a classic cocktail that you’ll want to try! The vibe is laid-back yet trendy, and the food and drinks are top-notch. Highly recommend if you’re looking for great vegan food and a fun experience!”
“Korean is my favorite cuisine. I was delighted to find this wonderful restaurant. It's in a small strip mall, the exterior is not inviting. Ambiance inside was very comfortable, very clean. Service was professional. One thing I use to judge ethnic restaurants is how many people of that ethnicity are there. Of the several tables occupied I was the only nonasian diner, so I assume authenticity. I had seafood soft tofu stew. It was delicious. Korean restaurants typically serve banchan side dishes, this served them, each was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant if you want to experience excellent Korean dining. I'll be back!”
“This has been one of my favorites since the mid 90s. My family brought me today for Mother’s Day. Ya’ll…they killed it. Every table full, food coming out fresh and speedy fast, servers everywhere assisting one another to keep the well oiled machine working, and tons of well wishes for the day. I hope each server, cook, host, and manager is able to kick up their feet this evening knowing you did a fabulous job and made many moms extra happy today!”
“It’s been a number of years since we frequented Kayne Prime due to a move out of state. Last night’s experience was excellent. We were celebrating my husband’s retirement and each staff member we encountered asked about it, congratulated him and took care to make it notable. You also upped your game with the cute goat cheese tarts and palette cleanser. Last night was truly an experience above the excellent meal you are known for. We are blessed to have dined in many high end restaurants and last night you especially rose to the top. Must shout out our server Matthew. He is so knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. Thank you for going above and beyond. It was a night and meal to remember!”
“The bartender tonight was amazing. I had a great chat with him, and it seems he's leaving to a new adventure soon. Not great for this place, since he has a real passion for what he does, and I think they're losing a great guy. Best of luck on your new adventures! Food was about as expected, not the drinks were phenomenal!”
“We got there within 40 minutes of closing (not busy thank goodness for us). We were served quickly. We had the Detroit pizza and it was fabulous. Food was great and the service was fabulous. We are only here for two days, otherwise I would definitely go again.”
“My kids took me for my birthday. Walking in, the ladies at the front were very nice wishing me a happy birthday. Our waiter, Clifton, could not have been any nicer or attentive. My menu came with a Happy Birthday Anna written on it. The whole experience was really special. Everyone was just friendly and did their job over and above expectations. The food was very good. My daughter and I split a 12 oz Cowgirl ribeye which was perfect. My son got the Cowboy ribeye and he said it was amazing. The Mac n cheese was good. My DIL got the pasta primavera and she liked it. The butter cake was great and the waiter surprised me with Crème Brûlée. All very good. Great atmosphere. Definitely will be going back. Thank you for making my birthday memorable!”
“I have been several times.
I love this place! Everything about it.
I just can't remember if they serve breakfast all day or not. If someone could let me know I'd appreciate it.
Most authentic food guaranteed!”
“Hands down the best all around dinner experience in Nashville. Presentation was off the charts! This was our first time visiting, they had a “Christmas Eve” menu which looked delicious but we came with our hearts set on the steak; no questions asked the kitchen was happy to adjust, we received the best steak we have tasted yet! The staff was beyond wonderful, the atmosphere was perfect. Love love loved Yolan; this will be a must have every time we visit Nashville! Thank you Yolan for the perfect Christmas Eve experience!”
“We just left there and was so impressed.The food was great ,service was great .We will definitely be back .I love the decor.A wonderful place to take the family.”
“We stopped in on a Tuesday afternoon and were thrilled they had 2 for 1 beers! I love the vibe, the scenery, the drafts, and the bartender was very nice & helpful. Also big compliments to whoever takes care of the plants! I've never seen so many live plants thriving like that!”
“I have brought family and friends to sixty vines a few times and really enjoy their atmosphere, food, and service! Each time I have been has been 10/10. Parking down on 5th broad and going up to the top is so quick and easy as well. The food is fresh, wine is delicious, and the atmosphere is a fun boho vibe. I have had the pleasure of having Johnathan as our server the last few times and he is so personable , fun, kind, and one of the best on broadway!! One of my favorite spots In Nashville 🍷”
“Such good food at good prices. Staff was amazing, so friendly and quick. If you’re in Nashville looking for a good dinner that won’t make you completely broke, come here!”
“We meet here to watch Premier League games. They have amazing food and great drinks and you can't find a better staff anywhere in town!”
“What an experience. Spending time with song writers, singing and telling their stories. Amazing afternoon, good food and good company. I highly recommend.”
“Layla was amazing!! Very friendly and attentive! Put up with our shenanigans for several hours!! Great music!!”
“Had a really great meal at Folk with some friends this weekend. The wait was a little long given we had a reservation, but the staff were friendly and apologetic.
The mocktails here were great–they had a substantial amount of options and NA beers, as well. I loved my NA spritz.
We got the carrots, straciatella, and the white fish dip. The carrots were great! The white fish dip and the straciatella were fine–not super exciting or memorable. We also got this squash pizza (phenomenal) and the hot honey pep pie (also very good.)
We then rounded it all out with some tiramisu and the chocolate cake slice. Both were good, but again not really memorable. Overall a solid meal.”
“Beautiful restaurant. Outstanding food. Server was adequate but not as present as I would expect for this type of restaurant. We sat at chefs table which was fantastic except when food runners were chatting loudly waiting for food. But quality of the food was so strong that it overrides the service glitches.”
“Excellent meal served by Dakota! Everything was great, served perfectly as ordered, prompt and professionally. We traveled in from Louisville with our only objective to eat at Jeff Ruby's and it did not disappoint. Highly recommended! Thanks again Dakota for a wonderful meal!”
“Service was pretty poor, but waiter did recommend the dishes we ordered. Honestly, the service could have been abysmal and it wouldn't really matter - the food was crazy good. 10 stars! I've througt about it every day since we went there several weeks ago. Will probably just start doing takeout instead.”
“Loved this place! My friend who lives in Nashville took me here. The menu was awesome, loved the speak easy vibes. Great staff. My bacon old fashioned was to die for. I wish I had this place close to home! Would go again and again”
“Excellent food, Friendly staff and owner. Friendly environment.”
“Loved this place a boy named Jaylen waited on us!! We loved him!!”
“We were in town to visit our daughter and boyfriend and decided to eat here. From the moment we arrived to when we left the service was top tier! One of our top three lifetime dining experiences. Shout to all the staff for making it memorable. Will definitely be back next time we are in town.”
“While visiting family in Nashville we dined at Gunnons. This was my second visit, and I again was not disappointed. The prime rib is superb and much more than I could eat. Our table shared the eggplant olivia and I have to say that it is the best eggplant dish I have ever eaten.”
“Fantastic service coupled with a well-executed menu!! Intimate atmosphere and delicious plates. Perfect for girls night out or a date night. Parking can be a challenge so don’t be late. The maitre’d is prompt to greet you and they ensure that your experience is flawless throughout the meal. 10/10 recommend!!”
“We have been visiting here over a months stays in an airb&b locally . The food is outstanding and served quickly . Most of the staff are friendly and banter , though there is an odd one that can’t even muster a smile BUT THEN it’s hard luck on them when their tipped less. Music is pretty good but some should turn it down a tad . All in all a great place to visit .”
“Loved this place a boy named Jaylen waited on us!! We loved him!!”
“Had an awesome meal tonight (tacos) with friends! Our server Sarah was terrific! I highly recommend it!”
“A beautiful cocktail bar with great food too! Service was great!”
“Dom was a delight - an incredible depth of knowledge about the wines, and a wonderful help in interpreting the menu - which was Amazing! On his suggestion, we got the pimiento cheese - so luscious and the prefect foil for the butter-baked saltines. Other stand-outs were the bacon and eggs, unctuous!, and the pork pate - everyone's favorite. There were 5 of us so we ordered all 5 entrees. Every single dish was an adventure - extraordinary. The pork with black walnut just was a big hit with our table. My favorite was the "Nashville Strip Steak" - a cut that was near the ribeye portion of a strip steak, I think? perfectly cooked, juicy, beefy,. The potato blinis were delicate and very tasty. Cannot wait to go back. I'm a foodie, and enjoy wine, but am not proficient. The AT ROca sparkling wine was delicious.”
“This was a highlight of our girls trip to Nashville. The songwriters were so engaging & great story tellers. We were able to hear some well known songs as well as some originals. We had a great time!!”
“This is my go to place when dinner is the question. I love, love the food here.”
“Today was the first I’ve even heard about this. I was leary about it at first with the parking being terrible. But my wife really wanted to try it. So valet we went. The young man that parked my Jeep was so nice and professional. But back to the restaurant. I was 100% impressed with just a burger that we are looking forward to coming back and having a real dinner. Hands down worth the time and energy. Bartenders were great, servers were polite and who I think was a manager was very attentive. Thank you all for today.”
“Last night we had a wonderful dinner at Germantown Cafe!! We had an outstanding server, thank you Conner!! The Tenderloin Pork with the Mash potatoes and green beans was outstanding! Thank you guys for sharing the sauce recipe with me!! Tim & Kat :)”
“I've stopped twice at the Donelson, TN location now. Staff are nice, inside is very nice and clean, food is really good.”
“Marsh House always delivers and I always look forward to dining there. We were seated promptly, and our server was very efficient and friendly. As we always do, we started our brunch with a biscuit order and the cinnamon roll for the table to share, and as always, they were delicious! We all went the breakfast route and we very much enjoyed our omelets and eggs. Another fantastic meal at Marsh House.”
“I’ve visited Halls in Nashville several times, but last night was truly the best experience yet. My sister and brother-in-law came in from Memphis to celebrate my birthday, and everything—from the food to the service—was outstanding, as always. We were also fortunate to meet the owner, Tommy, who took the time to stop by our table. He went above and beyond to make the evening feel extra special, which made the celebration even more memorable. Thank you for such a wonderful experience—we’ll definitely be back! I highly recommend Halls to both locals and visitors; you won’t be disappointed.”
“This is such a friendly place. We stopped in to try a beer after an event in Nashville. Unfortunately my husband, unfamiliar with my hybrid, left it in battery mode in the parking lot. When we exited it was dying. Everyone was so helpful from patron to employee. Our primary Good Samaritan works here. He phoned a friend for information, then got the car open and charged our battery. I loved the beer, loved their mural and their story and now I am so grateful for their kindness. We need more people like these. We need to be people like this. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!”
“Went twice while in Nashville and both times were a delight. Great staff and the pizza was phenomenal!”

“We arrived at the Nashville location. Was told there was a 20-minute wait, we said OKAY and was seated. The greeter told us that they only had 1 cook and 1 waitress. Our waitress Tasha informed us that she was the only one to serve the entire place. We fully understood and look over the menu; she served everyone their drinks in the place. She took our order. We got are food and it was outstanding. The fish was cooked perfect, and our friends had the county steak, and it was amazing. My wife had the slow cooked roast beef, and she said it was outstanding. Overall, for having a short staff, they did amazing job. Tasha went above and beyond she tasks. I just wish other places would see and do what she did for her customers. We highly recommend this place and will return again.”
“Korean is my favorite cuisine. I was delighted to find this wonderful restaurant. It's in a small strip mall, the exterior is not inviting. Ambiance inside was very comfortable, very clean. Service was professional. One thing I use to judge ethnic restaurants is how many people of that ethnicity are there. Of the several tables occupied I was the only nonasian diner, so I assume authenticity. I had seafood soft tofu stew. It was delicious. Korean restaurants typically serve banchan side dishes, this served them, each was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant if you want to experience excellent Korean dining. I'll be back!”
“FIRST TIME VISITOR W/5 FRIENDS FOR DINNER & COCKTAILS. MICHELLE GREETED US IMMEDIATELY. SMILES & VERY WELCOMING. SHE WAS HELPFUL TO RECOMMEND FOODS & TELL US THE WHAT DRINKS SHE WOULD RECOMMEND. HER ATTITUDE WAS UPLIFTING & PLEASANT. KEEP CHECKING BACK WITH US AFTER FOOD DEL'D AND ASKED ABOUT COCKTAILS REFILLS. HER SMILE WAS CONTAGIOUS. WHAT A DELIGHTFUL EXPERICENCE TO HAVE HER AS OUR SERVER. HATS OFF TO MICHELLE!!!! LOVE THE ATMOSPHERE OF OLE RED TOO”
“I went to Wingstop and the experience was excellent from start to finish. The wings were perfectly prepared, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, just the way they should be. They arrived on time and piping hot, ready to enjoy without having to wait too long. The staff was very friendly and attentive, always with a good attitude and making sure everything went well. You can tell when service is given with genuine effort, and here they definitely do it that way. And I have to highlight the Spicy Korean Q flavor — a true gem. It has just the right amount of spiciness, mixed with a sweet and smoky flavor that leaves you wanting more. It feels like a perfect balance between Korean and classic American, definitely one of my favorites on the menu! Overall, a 10 out of 10 experience, both for the food and the service. I will definitely come back for more wings, especially the Spicy Korean Q 🔥🍗”
“My wife ate there tonight 10/08/2025. The food was delicious as always. The manger was great answering my many questions I had. The server was friendly and the atmosphere was great. Love the smell of peppers and onions cooking. Always a great choice to dine South of the Border.”
“We ate here for lunch, and a week later for dinner. Both times the food was wonderful! Perfectly seasoned and served hot and promptly. And we had enough to take home for another meal. The staff was solicitous and knowledgeable. The lunch is a real bargain. Take home and in the restaurant and both taste great! Try it.”

“We stopped in while in Nashville. We were the first in the restaurant and were greeted by the. AMAZING staff. We didn’t have a reservation but were treated very well. We weren’t sure what we wanted to order so our server gave us some recommendations that didn’t disappoint. From the drinks to the end we were checked on frequently. Steak was like butter and cooked to perfection. Yes, the prices are high. That being said we will be returning and have recommended it to several friends as a “must try” while visiting Nashville.”
“This is well known in the Nashville area. Had lunch there, no wait as we were there about 11:30 am. About an hour later, there was a wait.. but well worth it. It's a place you just need to go to to experience how it was back in t he 50's on Hwy 100! Staff was awesome, food fantastic!”
“First the service! Karla was on top of her game! She met our needs, explained menu differences, made sure our drinks were full. We explained we wanted to take our time bc we never do and she made sure we did just that but kept us checked on and even had the perfect amount of socialization. We felt like a priority and could tell she makes all tables feel that way. Second, the food! Beef Wellington was spot on, salads are huge, Brussels are delicious and the steaks melt in your mouth! Great way to spend my wife’s birthday! Thanks Karla and JK!”
“I was in the Nashville location on 1/28 during my visit to the area. It was packed but everything moved quickly, efficiently and the staff was so very friendly to everyone. That didn’t stop just at the start but all throughout our time there. The lady helping us (her name was Isis, I believe) even followed back up with us on something. Her and the manager went above and beyond to take care of us on something we didn’t even ask them to. Btw, nothing happened, they were just out of something, it came back in and they took care of us. A measure most would not do but she found us and made sure to take care. Now THAT is friendly customer service! The food is so amazing, y’all. This is going to be my new joint for every single visit to Nashville from now on. Hot dayum!!”
“The food was great. Our server explained the menu very well. We, 4 of us shared blistered shishitos, bruschetta & crab & shrimp dip apps. Duck confit, lobster risotto & redfish with roasted carrots, broccoli & potato side dishes. Wd set at the chef's counter. I think I would sit at a regular table next time. Conversation was hard to hear.”
“I recently visited The Diner Nashville, a unique six-story establishment located on the corner of 3rd Avenue (around the corner from Broadway). The interior was impressively clean, creating a pleasant dining atmosphere. I ordered the barbecued chicken club with fries. While the barbecued chicken club was a bit messy and didn't quite hit the mark as the best sandwich I've ever had, the fries were exceptional and definitely stood out as the highlight of the meal. The service was fast and friendly, adding to the positive experience. Prices were reasonable, and the bathrooms were well-maintained and clean. Overall, The Diner Nashville offers a decent dining experience with great service and good value for money. I would definitely consider visiting again, especially for those fantastic fries!”
“My sister, daughter, and I stumbled upon Assembling Food Hall last night before the Mumford and Sons concert at Bridgestone. We were very impressed. It was clean, spacious, and had a variety of food and drinks. It was definitely not crowded like all the bars. The prices were decent too. This will definitely be our go to spot from now on.”

“My friends and I went here a few months ago. I ordered the Brisket Smoke Show bowl and everything in that bowl was amazing. The food had some much flavor and I enough to take home (it was a really big portion). I need to go back and try more items but it is a really good spot for Southeast Asia and Texas mix food.”
“Husband: I'm really not hungry - proceeds to eat an entire burger and fries 😆
Great food! The hangover burger was piled high! Naked tenders had a nice flavor. The seasoning on the fries is A+, they're perfectly crispy and fluffy! Even the to-go packaging is adorable!”
“I had such an incredible experience at Sirocco in East Nashville, and I can’t say enough great things about Lauren! From the moment we sat down, she made us feel completely welcomed and taken care of. Her knowledge of the menu was truly impressive—she walked us through everything with confidence, offered thoughtful recommendations, and clearly has a passion for both the food and the overall experience.
Every dish we tried was outstanding, and Lauren’s suggestions absolutely made the meal. She struck the perfect balance of being attentive without ever being overbearing, and her warm, genuine personality elevated the entire evening.
The atmosphere at Sirocco is already fantastic—stylish, inviting, and full of energy—but Lauren’s service is what made it unforgettable. If you’re lucky enough to have her as your server, you’re in for a top-tier dining experience. I’ll definitely be back!”
“We went for a bachelorette trip during March Madness and it was so amazing. Service was amazing drink options were fabulous and it was the perfect place to celebrate. If we come back to Nashville we will DEFINITELY be back!!!!!!”
“Not only was the pizza incredibly delicious, the breadstick was amazingly seasoned for flavor too. From the sofas to the benches the vibe and feel was on point, and what all pizzerias should aspire to be.
The service was also top notch and they all cared about the quality and speed of food getting into your belly.
Looking forward to coming here again the next time we are in town.”
“Only a few minutes from the hustle. Place is located at corner within a high-rise condo/apt.
Big plus is free parking inside condo garage. Other big plus is crazy assortment of yummy tasting delights that are bad for your waist. Everything tried, (Many)
Were all good,lite/fluffy,
Not heavy..Will need more than pocket change, but was worth it.”
