The food was absolutely amazing, as was the ambiance. Patrick, our waiter, was pleasant and informative and was able to suggest some amazing cocktails. I suggest stopping by and trying one of their signature dishes.

Food was delicious and the service was great - let us talk and eat but was attentive. A bit noise with the bar so prominent.
Dianne
Patrick was the ultimate host and treated us with great care and kindness. We were celebrating a birthday and he made it special for all of us.
Scott
Overall, the food was good quality but nothing really spectacular or above average to warrant the price is charged. We had the ribeye steak, which, although it was a very good quality cut of meat was bland in flavor. We also had the scallops which could have used a little more time cooking. Brussel sprouts were mushy as opposed to crispy. Salads were good.  Drinks we also good.

The staff was friendly, but service was a bit slow—we had to ask for menus and appetizer plates to be cleared. Most of the food was pretty good, though my son's burger was overcooked. My wife's champagne was served warm, and I ordered a martini instead of wine since they don't store their red wine chilled. Unfortunately, the martini—ordered dirty and bruised—came out slushy and not dirty at all. We were hoping for a better experience, but it just wasn't there. Probably won't be going back.
David
Probably the nicest restaurant we ate at in Nashville. Food and service were great. Excellent musician also. Beautiful restaurant.
Rebecca
The menu looked great, but the live music was WAY too loud and not that good. We had to leave after the appetizer to go somewhere where we could actually carry on a conversation.

I had a lunch meeting with 5 others at the Rutledge. I couldn't have found a better place to get together. The service, food , ambiance were perfect. We particularly enjoyed being able to hear each other talk. I definitely recommend te Rutledge as a wonderful place to gather!
Steven
The food was okay. I ordered a 14oz ribeye and got a 16oz prime rib. I decided to eat it instead of send it back. It was okay. My daughter loved her chicken sandwich; my wife's chicken was okay. The drinks, however, were great. We might go back for a happy hour, but not for a meal. They add a 3% convenience fee for a card and sides are not included with the main dish. Not a very good value for a meh experience.

First time here. Destiny, our server, was excellent Shrimp pasta was cooked well but tasted flat. Gelato vanilla with chocolate sauce was very good Salmon salad is great as well
I came here for a birthday dinner and it had to be one of the best meals I ever had. The steak rolls are delicious as an appetizer and their lobster mac is a must try. Absolutely delicious. It’s a little pricey but that’s too expected. It is a really good place for a special occasion. I also had their rotisserie chicken and sweet potatoes and I ate every last bite. Our server was very kind and the ambience was impeccable. Very clean restaurant. I will be back.

The reason they are getting a lower score is because a work group of six different tables came in at different times and for some reason they assumed that everybody was on one bill,?? It was a work group, so it was super awkward and embarrassing for one table to be presented with a bill for all. We were never asked about how to do the check and certainly never said 1 bill!!!

I absolutely adore this restaurant after tonight. I popped in for a drink after work and got service immediately. I enjoyed my glass of wine and an appetizer (steak rolls are incredible btw) and the manager even introduced herself and made sure i was enjoying myself. The staff overall was so kind and seemed to really enjoy their guests. Amazing spot and i can’t wait to come back!
