The beautiful garden was wonderful to look at through huge windows. There were trees that have been shaped specifically to provide privacy, which enhanced the ambiance of the restaurant.

“Ate here first in 2018. Really good food. Had the biscuit n gravy and the biscuit donuts. Both so good. This time picked up the b rolls. A bis uit cinnamon roll with cream cheese and caramel walnut sauce. These are just sinful so good. Only issue with this place is parking is tough. If you see any spot, just grab it.

Parking: If you see an available spot, grab it.“

“I stumbled upon Varallo's when I saw it from my hotel window. I researched it and read that they were known for the best chili in Nashville. I highly recommend getting the classic chili with onions and cheese. It was amazing! if the manager/owner is not busy ask him for the history story. It is a must try!“

“Great food and service was on point!“

“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!“

“We love the casual yet upscale atmosphere at Thistle & Rye. Our party of 6 sat inside as it was 8 million degrees outside. We shared lots of apps, we all had the cod sandwich. The cocktails were fun, our eats delish! Our server, Samantha was patient and gracious as we were definitely “extra”then a larger group settled in at the next table. They were hilarious, needless to say Sam had her hands full and by all accounts handled everything perfectly! Thank you, our evening was great fun!“

“The music was very good and comfortable for a nice dinner! Steak and soup were amazing I would come back a hundred times if we get the chance to travel this way!!“

“EVERY SINGLE PART of my birthday dinner last night was exceptional! From crafted cocktails, crispy avocado rice, bacon wrapped dates, lamb that melted in your mouth, so much of the newly crafted autumn menu that we were able to enjoy, plus staff that made us feel like we were the most important people in the room (we are talking especially about you, Ally!). Butcher and Bee is now my "you have to go here" recommendation to anyone coming to Nashville. And order the Chef's Choice. We are still a bit in awe of the culinary splendor we received. Thank you!“

“Went in this afternoon for an early dinner. The place was completely empty at 4pm. We were seated and Jesse H. took care of us. He was awesome and informative. I wound up getting a smokestack burger. It was two smashburger patties cooked perfectly medium. It had an incredible bacon queso cheese sauce and a helping of pulled pork on a very fresh bun. It was a fantastic burger. It came with fries that were a touch under cooked but good with the sweet BBQ sauce. It had a cup of coleslaw that was vinegar based. Not really my cup of tea. Mom got a steak fritas that she absolutely raved about. Sliced thin and cooked perfectly. She was very satisfied. We both got a glass of Nut Brown Ale from the bar. It's a cool place with a speakeasy type atmosphere. It's a touch expensive but the quality is definitely there. It was a very good meal and I'd definitely reccomend a visit to NashHouse.“

“Great food and service. Good wine list“

“We wandered into Pucketts on a whim, we were really hungry after a long day in Nashville. When there was a wait, we figured it would be worth it, and we were right! The staff was super friendly, the food was delicious, and the portions were huge. There was also a great band playing, which we did not expect at all, but was an added bonus!!“

“Grabbed a Togo order for my bf. Only five minutes for the PBJ biscuit and biscuit basket. Was offered a drink while I waited even tho it wasnt much of a wait at all! Service was very kind and quick. Price was great as well. I tried a bite of his pbj and it was reallllyyy good!“

“We stayed down the street while looking for a home in the area and someone recommended 417 Union for brunch.

So friendly and helpful as we navigate our next move!“
