They have a large selection of fish to choose from and an interesting drink menu that pairs nicely with their entrees. Highly recommend!🍹🥩✔️“

“Sometimes people lean on the opinion that hotel restaurants aren't the best choices for a trip to city, but those people would miss out in this case...

Marsh House is in the Thompson Hotel in The Gulch neighborhood in Nashville, and their brunch was incredible. Eli was our bartender, and he made our experience even better than the delicious food that was served. Perfect, fun service. Thanks, Eli! Fun environment with some hotel guests, party folks, and couples at the bar. The dining room looked very nice, although we sat in the bar area. The wife had the Medieval Barber for a drink and loved it. We got the salmon tartar as an appetizer, and it was delicious, along with a fantastic presentation. Wife got the shrimp and grits, and I got one of the better omelettes that I have ever had (I added ham to the cheese-y-ness magic). Hope you go there, and hope Eli is your tender. The Gulch is also a cool wander as you digest the awesome meal you just had. Dining room looked classy too. Definitely recommend, and see you there...“

“We chose this restaurant for our small wedding reception. From the moment we stepped through the doors, it was clear this restaurant is in a league of its own. The customer service was nothing short of extraordinary—warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our experience unforgettable. Every staff member exuded professionalism, yet their approach felt personal and welcoming. The menu was a masterpiece, offering a wide variety of dishes crafted with precision and care. Every bite was a revelation, showcasing the chef’s exceptional skill. But what truly set this restaurant apart was their meticulous attention to detail. Trisha and Eli have gone above and beyond for us! We had several special requests, including dietary restrictions, and they accommodated every single one without hesitation. From adjusting portion sizes to ensuring every ingredient aligned with our preferences, their commitment to meeting our needs was impeccable. They even allowed us to bring our own cake which they sliced for us (of course, after placing in on the table and waiting for everyone to take pictures). It wasn’t just about the food—it was the entire experience. The table was set with care, and ready for us before our scheduled reservation time, the ambiance was perfectly curated, and even the timing of each course felt seamless. It’s rare to find a place that strikes this perfect balance between culinary excellence and unmatched service, but this restaurant delivers on every front. If you’re looking for a place where every detail is thoughtfully considered and every request is met with genuine care, look no further. This isn’t just a meal; it’s an experience that lingers long after the last bite. Bravo!“

“Love Poke’ Brothers! Food is always fresh!“

“Traveled to Nashville from Missouri. Stayed at the Courtyard Downtown Nashville. We could not decided where to eat due to many choices. We decided to stay in the hotel and go to the first floor and just eat here at the hotel. We were treated as if we were royalty. The food is world class food. Nothing can compare. The atmosphere was that of a dream. Great music. They play the best music live making it an experience not to forget. If you need to feel like a famous person from Nashville, you have to go to Gannon’s in Nashville. Cole and Matt were very professional and we can not wait to go back!“

“About as authentic as you can get! They are a cafeteria-style place with southern food. I am a Californian who barely eats meat but they were very kind and gave me a little sampler so I could try stuff. I got the roasted chicken- yum! Get their spicy BBQ sauce that they hip up themselves! I was full for about two days but it was super good“

“My wife is from Louisiana so we have been wanting to come here to try it out! She said that this was by the best Louisiana food in tennessee that tastes like actual Louisiana food!! Friendly staff! Food was fresh and cooked just right!!! Will go there again!“

“We celebrated our son's Vandy graduation here. It was perfect. We walked right in with no wait for our reservation. The waitress was top notch and never rushed us. After we ordered We walked around and took in the wonderful views, to include the bar area which had fabulous views of Nashville. The fry tray, instead of bread was a great change up. One of our party had a dairy allergy and received a special fry tray. Our steaks were all done wonderfully. We also ordered the Brussel sprouts- best side ever, and the fried rice and broccoli were also good. We skipped dessert, but received some carmel chocolate popcorn which was also fabulous. I don't leave many reviews, but I had to write about this wonderful experience.“

“The food was ??. It was fresh, hot and flavorful. Better than that though is y'all employee Trent. Y'all need to hurry up and promote him or give him a raise or something. I haven't had service like that since I was a baby. Man did everything but put the spoon to my mouth. ??“

“I knew I was in the mood for something a little more rich and filling. I scoped the floor and Dock local had a several people in front, discussing what they just ate. The people in the restaurant were smiling while patrons were talking about their food. That sold me and I dont regret it. I had the connecticut and some clam chowder. Manager was super friendly. Everything behind the counter looked clean. My food was out what felt like super quick.

The roll was toasty and butter the lobster was well seasoned, comes with the extra butter.
Was an amazing bowl of clam chowder. Its a fav of mine. Recommend highly

So damn good. Here for work and I will be back with my colleagues.

Will get the fries next time.

Wheelchair accessibility: Highly accessible with elevator. Paths to tables and locations were really clear. It can fit a lot of people but feel noncongested“

“The chicken and sausage gumbo was to die for. I will definitely be back for more if I ever pass through the area again.“

“Everything was hittin! Didn’t miss on anything!“

“Ordered. A fish and shrimp combo which is supposed to come with two pieces of fish and six pieces of shrimp. I got one piece of fish and five pieces of shrimp. For my side, I chose corn on the cob that I think had been sitting around for a week. The hush puppies tasted like they were straight up cornmeal that was fried. Not sure what happened with this location. It used to be the testing ground for corporate to try new menu items. Now the food quality has deteriorated so much that I probably will not return.“

“Service was good, food was prepared and delivered quickly. Waitress was quick and responsive to our requests. Recommend for a good relaxing meal.“

“this place is the bomb!!! i love it!! 5 stars“

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

“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.“

“Phenomenal. At a loss for words at how good our meal was tonight.“

“Ruth’s Chris never disappoints! From start to finish, our dining experience was elegant, satisfying, and well worth the splurge. If you're a fan of classic steakhouses with impeccable service and consistently great food, this is the place.

We started off with a few appetizers, and they were fantastic. The stuffed mushrooms were rich and savory, and the shrimp cocktail was fresh with a great kick from the horseradish. Each dish came out hot and perfectly prepared, setting the tone for what was to come.

The steak, of course, was the star of the night. I ordered the filet, and it came out sizzling on their signature 500° plate—an experience in itself. The steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare, with a buttery richness that melted in my mouth. Every bite was tender, juicy, and full of flavor. You really can’t go wrong with any cut on the menu.

We also ordered a bottle of red wine from their curated list, which had some excellent options. Our server was incredibly helpful in suggesting a pairing that worked well with both our steaks and our side dishes.“

“Absolutely, positively incredible!! The vibe, the food, the cocktails, the service, the live music - all simply perfect. Like stepping back into 1961. Truly my favorite spot in Nashville. Frank would be proud. Don't miss this swingin' place, baby!“

“Well let me tell y'all. I recently got out of being incarcerated 8 years and been here twice n this 2-3 months. The food is amazingly delicious. I'll take the ride from Lebanon, Tn. any day.“

“Great place for one on one encounters and the monthly wine tasting dinners.“

“Exquisite food & amazing magicians!“

“My family and I love coming here this is definitely out spot for Mexican food. The entrees we order never miss!!! The owner is always sweet to my little boy and surprises him with something when we come. We’ve celebrated many birthdays here and will continue to do so.“

“We had made reservation here to celebrate our anniversary! This was our first experience in Nashville as well. Our steak was cooked perfectly, and paired nicely with our sides. Our server Addie had the beaming and professional personality of a fine dining restaurant, she knew it was our first time and made the entire experience elevated. Thank you! We will definitely be back!“

“The best safe place for all of the LGBTQ+ peeps and introverts and extroverts safe too.“
