“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.“

From the flavors to the service, everything came together beautifully. A fantastic choice for anyone who loves exceptional dining.“

“We just left the Murfreesboro location and oh my. The food was delicious. The staff was so friendly. The lady at the counter was so kind to my kiddo and constantly checked on us. The cook came out and was kind as well. Everything was delicious and flavorful and tender. We will be back!“

“The food was spectacular for this wine paired dinner. And…”the man” was in the house!“

“I stayed at the hotel for several days and had the privilege of enjoying the complimentary breakfast each morning. I took full advantage of it, and to my surprise, every meal was excellent.

On the first day, I had the steak and eggs, which exceeded my expectations and was absolutely delicious. The next morning, I tried the bagel and lox sandwich, which was fantastic. On the third day, I went with the traditional Southern breakfast, and it was one of the best I’ve had in a long time. The grits were outstanding, and the sourdough bread was excellent as well.

The only downside was the service on the first day. Our waiter seemed distracted and not particularly attentive. We had to ask other staff members several times for coffee and a few other items. I think the hotel and restaurant should either provide additional training or ensure their waitstaff are better prepared, because the food and overall dining experience are truly excellent, and poor service can easily take away from that.

One additional recommendation: if you’re a coffee lover, check out the attached coffee shop. I found the coffee there to be much better than what was served in the restaurant, and it seemed like they may be using a different blend.

Overall, the food was outstanding, and despite the service issue on the first day, I would definitely recommend dining here“

“Had a fabulous meal tonight! The steak was superb, the sides delicious & the staff lovely! We will definitely return when we visit Nashville in the future!“

“Absolutely, hands down, the best fish and chips I have ever had. Everything is obviously made from scratch (even the tartar sauce). My wife loved it and she isn’t even much of a fish person. Put this place on your list of restaurants to try!“

“Great experience with the friendliest staff in town. The food is outstanding and well worth a visit. A local’s favorite for sure.“

“I loved the dinner. I had a filet, done perfect, scallops, broccoli, potatoes and carrots. It was cooked beautifully. The hostess was a joy. The gentleman that looked like a manager was very cordial and offered me something to drink as I waited. I will be back. I had my to go. Wish I could of stayed to enjoy the atmosphere.“

“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 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“

“This is our first time coming, and we will come back again. .The food was also great. the portions were Hage. the fish was very crispy and cooked to perfection. This is definitely a place to come.“

“Wonderful place for family celebrations. Andrew was the most incredible server we have had in my 52 years on earth.“

“Our dinner at Jeff Ruby’s tonight was great! Our servers, Ama and Tyler, were phenomenal. Great atmosphere and good food! Highly recommend!“

“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.“

“Always have a good experience! Great food. Excellent service. Never had a bad meal😀“

“I am from Utah, had the opportunity to dine at The White Alligator on Feb 13, had the Muffaletta Sandwich and Jambalaya, I found both to be very tasty and was equally impressed with the attentiveness to service. The Jambalaya really got my attention! Thanks!“

“We purchased a sack of live crawfish from another company and half of the sack was dead. Spicy Heads Crawfish Co. came to the rescue and hooked us up with some big ones in less than an hour so that we could still have our family boil! Thanks guy!“

“If you’re looking for authentic, perfectly seasoned crawfish — Southcoast Seafood is IT. The crawfish is hands down some of the best I’ve ever had — bold, flavorful, and seasoned to absolute perfection. You can taste the authenticity in every bite. And don’t even get me started on the oysters… absolutely next level. Fresh, clean, and beyond delicious. Every single thing we tried was incredible — you truly can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. On top of that, the owner is amazing. You can tell there’s real passion behind the food and the experience. It’s rare to find a spot where the quality, flavor, and hospitality all hit 10/10 — but this is one of them. Run, don’t walk. 🦞✨“

“Came here for to watch a world cup match, ended up having a fantastic time with Ryan as our server. I ordered a negroni and it was perfect. We had the grilled Mahi Mahi and the shrimp and scallops. Both came out fantastic. Would definitely recommend the bang bang shrimp appetizer and to ask for Ryan as a server“

“We just celebrated our 28th wedding anniversary dinner on Friday evening. We were impressed from the moment we sat down at the table. Our main server was Demetrius and Bella was the one who cut our chops and explained about the chop as she did the cutting. Vernon was not our server yet stopped by a few times just to make sure all was well. Everyone who came to the table told us Happy Anniversary and to let them know if there is anything we needed. The food was delicious, ambiance was wonderful and the staff made our meal special to us. This was our first time and we will highly recommend to all our friends and we WILL be back😊“

“We had dinner here tonight. Good ambiance and excellent service. We enjoyed the fettuccini, pesto and rigatoni. ♥️“

“Exquisite food & amazing magicians!“

“Food was amazing. Every dish except one out of this world! But the thing that set it over the top and will cause me to tell the world about this place. The reason I will return was Jared our server! I’ve been many places around the world. High end establishments all over. His service was exceptional and by far among the best! After you book your reservation request Jared as your server !!!“

“Awesome food! I would highly recommend stopping by if you see him set up! He stopped by Fairview tonight and was giving away free plates! Some of the best catfish I have ate in awhile.“

“We are locals and have wanted to try this place for a little while now. Getting a table reservation is hard but worth the wait. We celebrated our anniversary here and had complimentary champagne. We had the rack of lamb, my strip, wagyu skewer, and the potatoes.

Free parking located at 147 4th Ave N. Just bring your ticket to the hostess and they will cover it.“

“The food was absolutely delicious. Everything was great.also the staff above and beyond.“

“Amazing lobster grilled cheese sandwich. They give you a lot of lobster so you definitely get what you pay for. Serving with their “crab” chips is a nice touch to the meal. I’ll be going back to try their “Connecticut” (my birth state); on another day while I’m here in town. Only downside in my opinion is the crowded atmosphere. It can get very busy in this location and I’m not a fan of crowds. Aside from that the food is great. Worth a try if you’re in the area.“

“Fabulous food, service, and atmosphere! Went here for a nice dinner at request of my niece, and it didn't disappoint. Our waiter recommended the buy one entree take one home for 10 dollars. We were able to treat ourselves, and also treat the guys at home even though they weren't allowed on a girls day out...
Zuchinni frittas, fresh bread with olive oil and herbs, filet and shrimp with spinach and mushroom garlic sauce over linguine. Will definately visit again if in the Green Hills area to shop. Thanks for an amazing meal that didn't break the bank.“

“Delicious and great service“

“This place is a gem that has been operating here forever!! The best authentic Thai food in Nashville. The space is in a house and can be a bit tight and crowded, but I think it is one of the charms of old place that has been around for so long. You can see the owner likes plants, there are lot of hanging plants and pots all around which add charms and personal touch to the experience. Their Pad Thai is very tasty but it could be less sweet. The flavor is bold and tastes very authentic. I usually get the one with green bean noodles which has nice texture and tastier. We love their bao buns and dumplings, too. Their sticky mango dessert is one of the best I have ever tasted!“

“This is a nice place and you should try their crab claws. It is so flavorful! It can be a little less salty though. The wait staff were very friendly and attentive. They also have a piano and you can hear them playing it live which is a plus! We have been to this place several times celebrating occasions and I would highly recommend it!“

“I just left from captain d's on Jefferson street.. Got to the window for my order and the lady did not give add my sweet tea. Instead of giving me a sweet tea she told me i needed drive back around and order another sweet tea in the back of the line for a mistake that she made. What kind of mess is that??? she was a short skinny black lady with glasses and a wig. I want my tea.“

“Great restaurant with amazing food and an unbelievable staff!“

“Really good food and staff“

“Best crawfish in town! 10/10 recommend!“

“Amazing food! Excellent service!“

“I had a wonderful experience at Mercado by Butchertown. The restaurant offers a beautiful, modern atmosphere paired with creative, flavorful Mexican cuisine that feels both elevated and authentic. Every dish was fresh, thoughtfully prepared, and beautifully presented, making the meal feel truly special.

The service was attentive and accommodating, even with a larger group, and the inviting ambiance made it easy to relax and enjoy the experience. With its delicious food, stylish setting, and welcoming hospitality, Mercado by Butchertown is a fantastic choice for anyone looking for a unique and memorable dining experience in Nashville. I’ll definitely be back.“

“I’ve been coming to this drive thru for years, and the food is always hot, fresh, and delicious. Since the fish is cooked to order, it might take a few extra minutes but it’s well worth the wait. The service is friendly, and they really take pride in what they do. One of my favorite spots.“

“I really like the atmosphere and the hot pot at this restaurant.“

“First time visiting Nashville we are from Nova Scotia, Canada. Stopped in here for dinner this evening and It was an excellent meal, service was fast, waitress was awesome!! Definitely give this a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🇨🇦 April 20/25“
