Someone came up behind me and bit my neck like a vampire and then disappeared. The bouncer didn’t do anything about it.

Can you not afford AC or what? It’s way too hot in there it’s disgusting.

I visited Capone's during a recent trip to Tennessee. I absolutely loved the atmosphere! The staff was very outgoing and professional. The bands we went to see were PHENOMENAL. Clean, old school castle-like structure with multiple levels. A very unique venue. I highly recommend Capone's to any and everyone. I will definitely be back in the future!

Below 7 is the band featured in the video. Talented BEYOND!!! Thank you, Jarrod Evans and crew, for a phenomenal performance!

It’s like stepping back in time. From the stained glass to the tin ceiling there is so much to love about this place.

Had a great time checking out a live show. Wonderful stage (my son was in the band) and free parking. Didn't get food but drink service was excellent. Best sound guy ever!

Sharon Rudder

Great place for live local music.

Good luck getting in if you’re from out of state! They seem to believe every license that doesn’t come from Tennessee is a fake. Bouncer caused an unnecessary scene over my REAL South Carolina ID. Not the first time this has happened here either.

Ordered fried pickles and fries, and BOTH were burnt and cold. Another individual in our group ordered fries & a burger and it was burnt! Highly recommend eating prior to going to Capones! First time & last time going there. The bartender took the order and then was no where to be found when we saw our food sitting on the bar with other customers. There was a young girl there that did not know whose food it was nor anything else it was apparent.

Cool little place to hang out

Bouncer took my pepper spray and threw it away at the door. I’ve never gotten a problem from any other bar downtown over it. But this bouncer decided his power trip was more important than my safety downtown on a Saturday night. If I wasn’t here to see my friends’ band I would’ve left. This was my last straw with Capone’s. You couldn’t pay me to set foot in there again.

Update: just realized they also charged me $17 when the cover was supposed to be $5

This was our first time visiting this establishment. Employee (owner's son) was very knowledgeable regarding the menu, very helpful with options and suggestions. I was there with my son around 4:30-5pm Monday. We didn't have to wait long and took our order to the riverfront to enjoy both the view and our food ENJOY we did!!! Well worth the $$ and delicious! My son actually said that these guys beat the spot near his home in CR where he gets Italian Beef sandwiches. "They don't have the spectacular sides and the sandwich is slightly better!" Cowboy bites... yummmm! Fried cheese curd squares - oh my! Mostly delicious cheese hardly any breading. Our helper said breading is light+ mostly falls off in the fryer. He was right! Highly recommend supporting these guys! We don't want to lose them because this community often leaves town to shop/eat. Besides... It. is. sooo. good!! I'm trying the gyro next time!! 🤤

DONT EAT HERE!!!!!Horrible experience and dont eat here unless you want food poisoning. My friend and I were visiting from out of town and went to Capones for dinner and live music. Music which was suppose to be a live show ended around 8:30 and the food was inedible. The staff didnt try to fix situation and didn't even say sorry. We ordered chicken tender sandwich with fries and chicken tender wrap with onion rings. Chicken and onion rings were cold plus chicken wasn't cooked fully. My fries came out 10 minutes after the other food but at least they were hot and cooked. Ate a half of my tender before realizing the texture wasn't right and couldn't eat the sandwich. My friend ate 3 bites of the wrap. The staff didn't care and unfortunately we both spent the next 24hrs sick from food poisoning. I asked the bartender how does fried food come out cold and raw? He said nothing and just walked away.
