“Cold beer. hot food even hotter women. let me tell you this is a great place to go for a good time. Gabby is out of this world. you have to ask for her. you will not be disappointed. if you're in Madison, make sure that this is your first stop. I recommend the fish sandwich and the burgers. they're fantastic!“

“Great place to eat and hang out!“

“Was traveling through Jackson and looking for something not fast food. Great food, very friendly staff. Glad we stopped here.“

“Awesome place. All in Chiefs gear and not one rude look in the middle of winning the Orange Bowl. 😅 Felt the energy, and know it well! Congrats and thanks for the hospitality!“

“We were only in Nashville for about 36 hours and ended up going to Beyond the Edge twice —.

The food was fantastic, especially the wings with Big T’s Dry Rub… easily some of the best wings we had while in town. The atmosphere was great for sports and the staff is incredibly friendly and attentive.

What really stood out though was the manager, Josef, who went completely above and beyond. After we had already left town, he helped make sure my wallet got back to me. He even had to take a few trips to the post office because of the post office system was down.

Great food, great people, and outstanding service. If you’re in Nashville, Beyond the Edge is definitely worth a stop.“

“Happy to witness people who like families. 🥰 Excellent place to stop & eat for parents with littles. Good food. Great Service. Amazing gated playground. 🛝“

“We really enjoyed the fried asparagus, cheese curds, pretzel bites, the burger and fries. I definitely don’t recommend a salad from this place, but that could be expected. Customer Service was terrible. She was nice however, we rarely saw her and she actually forgot about something we had asked for after receiving our food. I actually had to walk up to her to get what we needed.“

“Sam's is a top fav for me in all of Nashville. my fav burger and fries, but everything on their menu is a hit. beautiful atmosphere on the lake, even in the winter!“

“Great west coast atmosphere in a bar, great staff and cold beer. What we like best is the staff has personality. Downtown has become too assembly line for us. Decent volume on the juke box, you can't beat the Thursday all night happy hour. Lots of parking, too. Sorry, can't say about the food, I've never eaten there.“

“You may or may not have fun here. 3 ☆.“

“Stopped here for lunch for our 1st day in Nashville ! GREAT lunch specials 7 days a week! Burger & a side for $8.99!!! They even accommodated my request for a lettuce wrap and swapped my fries for FANTASTICA green beans for a side with no upcharge! Very delicious and filling meal for a great price! My hubby got the burger and fries the way it comes and was very pleased with the generous portion of fries ! Drinks are also VERY reasonably priced compared to other spots in the area(Tall Mich Ultra draft only $4 and a coke & vodka only $5.50). Very pleased with our visit ! Service was a little slow but the great food , fast seating and great prices make me give this place at least 4 stars ! 🙂“

“In a city that over charges for everything...then there's Willlhagens! Great prices, great service and everyone is friendly. If you are a Vikings fan, it's worth the Uber!“

“Awesome place! Great food, good vibes.“

“I feel like this place doesn't get enough credit. Great food. Great staff. Great local hangout. Never had a bad meal or time at Sam's.“

“We had an absolute blast here from start to finish. Visiting during the off-season on a Sunday night turned out to be the perfect move, it had plenty of energy without feeling crowded or chaotic. The place felt alive, but you could still move around easily and actually enjoy yourself. And honestly, where else are you going to find $5 bull riding? That alone set the tone for a fun, laid-back night. Even better, the prices across the board were reasonable considering the location.
We ended up spending hours bouncing between activities shooting pool for just $1 a game, taking turns on the punching bag, and throwing darts. It was one of those nights where there was always something to do, so you never felt stuck just standing around with a drink in your hand. It’s a great break from the typical bar scene where your only options are drinking and yelling over loud music.
The unexpected highlight of the night? Walking into the bathroom and witnessing two guys doing a full-on song and dance routine. It was completely unplanned, absolutely hilarious, and one of those moments you’ll be talking about long after the night’s over. Honestly, that alone made the visit memorable.
The place itself is smaller, with a relaxed setup where you order directly at the bar. Instead of a live band, they had karaoke going, which actually fit the vibe perfectly and added to the fun without overpowering the room. Overall, it’s a unique spot with character, affordable drinks, and plenty to keep you entertained. Definitely a great place to hit later in the evening when you’re looking for something fun, different, and memorable.“

“Great day hanging out and service was awesome“

“Our first time for lunch today. The BEST snow crabs I have ever had. Blackened Mahi, grouper and drunken shrimp…oh and the key lime pie. Absolutely the best of everything!! Highly recommend and it’s our new weekly date night!“

“Our company had a Halloween party at this place ans it was a BLAST‼️‼️ I’ve been back plenty of times since I love the open floor, the place was so cool with its own beer pong table, tons of screens for parlays and the bar and food is amazing! only place in Nashville to get that experience definitely recommend swinging by anytime of day!“

“One of my favorite places to watch sports! Great patio views over the Sounds Baseball Stadium!“

“I've been coming to neighbors for almost 10 years. smoked wings were the best wings I've ever had when you smoked 100% with the hot dry rub seasoning it was the perfect concoction. Then you went to smoke 80% then deep fry last 20% good but not as good. Now you have changed again and I have to say they are probably some of the worst wings I've had. Extremely dry meat, hard crunchy skin and then just smothered with dry rub before you serve. It's not just Sylvan park i went over to Germantown one as well and they are the exact same way. The wings are just not good anymore. wish you would go back to 10 years ago where they were smoked 100% and the best wings in the country. Great place to go but stay away from smoked wings until they do something to make them better.“

“Un lugar maravilloso para revivir recuerdos precisamente en conciertos“

“If we a A Lost Paddy in our area I would go there. This was a fun place to eat. Vanessa was helpful with our orders, and quite a charactern So friendly. She floated when she walked. So good at her job. Yes, you order from the bar. Who cares? Tuesday night we had entertainment. They were good. They said there would be entertainment thd next night also, though we didn't see any. We may have been early. The food wss great. Huge portions of tasty, fresh food.“

“Sean was an amazing waiter! He checked on our table numerous times! The breakfast burrito was so delicious!“

“Great bar. The whole staff and music was great.“

“Just came here to say, we popped in here last night to grab dinner and my husband ordered the lasagna.... I'm beyond picky on my Italian and especially lasagna, and please dont tell my straight off the boat Italian family but this was quite literally the best lasagna I've ever had, in my entire life.... I'm fully aware I'll never find one that compares and I'm half tempted to make him take me back again tonight. yall absolutely nailed it, from the sauce to the ratio of cheese and thin pasta noodles, it was ansolute perfection. We've literally been talking about it since we woke up today. Bravo, guys. absolutely phenomenal“

“We`re happy to have City Tap as one of our top rated partner bars in Nashville for our line-up of Bar Crawls. Always a great place to party. Friendly staff, amazing food and tasty drinks.“

“The music was super bad ass. Environment was OF COURSE sick! The bar had three different levels. We checked out all 3 levels. Again the music there was top notch, super awesome. The windows on the lower level open completely up and the pic attached was of a gentleman asking for money and was honest enough to let everyone know EXACTLY what he wanted it for LOL.“

“We started with the pepperoni cheese curds lightly breaded and paired with a bright, flavorful marinara. Then we shared the Jalapeño Popper Burger, ordered medium rare, cooked perfectly with just the right kick of heat. We upgraded to the Nashville Hot Tots… yum! Our server Nate brought that authentic Tennessee charm, prompt, friendly, and made us feel right at home. We grabbed a Cookie Butter Shake to go and WOWZA! Sweet, rich, and dangerously good. Excellent!“

“Had a blast here! Just moved back home and newly divorced. I needed a GNO and this was the perfect spot!“

“Great service! Dave is the GOAT and his bartenders Made my daughter’s Bachelorette first day in Nashville so great!!!“

“Love going there and love the live music.“

“I have been to Twilight several times and everything I have ever ordered has been great! The jerk chicken wrap, the cheeseburger sliders, the chicken wings, it is all great!“

“gotta check this place out the food was on point we will definitely be back“

“Lucky Bastards is a fantastic spot to check out on Broadway. High energy bands with big talent played all weekend when we were in Nashville. Our favorite band was the Mariel Mae band!! Mariel is super talented with a dynamic voice and also very engaging with the crowd. Check out Lucky Bastards and check out the Mariel Mae band!!“

“I have been here twice now. The staff is amazing. The atmosphere is the best! This place attracts a great crowd and the music is great as well.“

“We were here for a conference and they’re able to accommodate three of us immediately. It was great. The service by Colton as exceptional. He kept the refills coming & had us in & out in good time for us to get back to our convention class. Thanks buddy! We’ll try to get back in your section before we leave town.“

“Great service. Great food. Great music. Laid back atmosphere. The menu is simple, but don't let that stop you from giving it a chance.“

“The food here is amazing, but my favorite is the chicken Alfredo. It is awesome. Friendly and professional staff and awesome management would recommend this place.“

“Wes is the best bartender in Nashvillle, hands down….we come to Pete and Terry’s before every Preds Game!!!! We LOVE it!!!“

“As a day one Preds season ticket holder, Broadway Brewhouse has been my pregame meal spot for as long as I can remember ... decades. Very convenient and great selection of beers. However, tonight I was hit with the terrible news that the meal I order every visit, Pasta de Louisiane, has been axed from the menu. Now you've become just another bar and grill with nothing special on the menu 😞 Plastic cups, paper plates ... the Brewhouse just isn't the same. I'm sure I'll pop in periodically; but heading downtown early for my favorite meal before the Preds hit the ice is now a thing of the past. I realize that things change; but change sucks.“

“Great atmosphere! Our service was great & food came out timely & was delicious! Our Yukon potatoes were slightly over-salted but nothing too major! The cherries in my drink were superb as well!“

“Great neighborhood sports bar. Best wings in town and a great smash burger. Meat and 3 for lunch Mon-Fri. Friendly staff and great tv set up to watch a game. They have all the NFL games as well.“

“Great atmosphere! Only thing they could change is having a small munchie menu. We would’ve stayed if we hadn’t gotten hungry“

“This place has the best breakfast buffet I've ever seen, not only was the food delicious, the spread was beautiful, even our server Ryan was new, but did a fantastic job and was so friendly and attentive. We'll def be back“

“Shirley was my waitress, she is the best! Shirley works extremely hard to serve her customers. She works circles around the other waitress. She is polite and efficient, makes you feel welcome. Shirley deserves recognition and praise! Thank You Shirley for your brilliant service!“

“We had so many things to eat, but damn, if you don’t get the wings and the chili you should not go back to Nashville. We did not try the brisket, but overhead that was the play. PS - the chili should be canned and sold nationwide. (Full disclaimer - they only make the chili in house in the winter so don’t come at me if you ate it in the summer. Go back in the winter, worth the trip if you like chili!)“

“Due to the exceptional service provided by the bartender Patti, The Rusty Nail Bar will always be our local bar of choice! She runs that bar like a champ and we never have any complaints or issues. If you’re a Hermitage local, I highly recommend stopping by on a Wednesday to eat some delicious wings and sing karaoke! It’s always a good time!“

“The food was divine! I recommend the chicken parm sandwich. Delicious! The atmosphere is great. Vibes are awesome. 10/10“

“So much fun!!! Loved talking with Chelsey!“
