“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!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Above and Beyond — A Bright Spot in a Long Travel Day After 10 hours of travel delays, cancellations, and feeling completely worn down, I found myself at Ole Red’s — and I’m so glad I did. The staff didn’t just serve food and drinks; they showed genuine kindness and care that turned my whole day around. Not only did they treat me like I mattered, they bought me a drink and even gifted me an Ole Red’s tank top to lift my spirits. I honestly teared up — it was one of the most thoughtful gestures I’ve ever experienced while traveling. Kindness like this is rare, especially in the middle of airport chaos. Thank you to the amazing team at Ole Red’s (specifically KJ and Gabby) — your warmth, generosity, and heart made a hard day feel a whole lot better. I won’t forget it!”

“We were in town for just a few days. Looked for Italian near our hotel and read great reviews of Caffe Nonna. It lived up to those. My husband and I split a salad and the Nonna lasagna and the tiramisu for dessert. It was all delicious. The two types of bread were both excellent. Would highly recommend this little gem!”
“This was my first time eating here and sure won't be my last. The food was excellent! The portions are a nice size! The food just melted in my mouth!!!”
“This has recently become one of my favorite plant based spots in Nashville after trying them at Hunters Station last weekend, then having my boyfriend go back later that night and the next day to grab us food. The fish sandwich tastes exactly like fish and the cheesy potatoes compliment it to well. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that they open up on a more consistent basis but for now I’m ok with stalking their insta page to see where their going to be. 10/10”
“Brunch and Drag show were so much fun! Our bachelorette party, loved the vibe!”
“We visited on a night when the AC had gone out, so it was a tad warm. But the server did a great job of working through that glitch. The cocktail menu was fun and creative. The dinner menu combines classics very simply prepared over live fire with out of the box shareables, such as the corn ribs, which are a MUST. Parking is rough, but it was all quite worth the visit.”

“I was in the Nashville location on 1/28 during my visit to the area. It was packed but everything moved quickly, efficiently and the staff was so very friendly to everyone. That didn’t stop just at the start but all throughout our time there. The lady helping us (her name was Isis, I believe) even followed back up with us on something. Her and the manager went above and beyond to take care of us on something we didn’t even ask them to. Btw, nothing happened, they were just out of something, it came back in and they took care of us. A measure most would not do but she found us and made sure to take care. Now THAT is friendly customer service! The food is so amazing, y’all. This is going to be my new joint for every single visit to Nashville from now on. Hot dayum!!”
“We stopped here for lunch with a small group after the Getty's Sing!2024 conference. The food (tacos, side of frijoles y platanos) was delicious, reasonably priced, and promptly served. Recommended!
Parking: It is in a busy area, but we found parking on the street nearby.”
“I highly, highly, highly recommend Wednesday's Jerk Chicken Special at Rae's Gourmet Sandwiches on Union. That is, if you enjoy involuntarily and pitifully yelping as you jump straight up out of, and pretty much fall off of, your office chair from the incredibly delicious and even more incredibly painful heat of the spices with your very first bite. The instantaneous clearing of any toxins in your body is spectacular. No worries, though, these antics go entirely unnoticed by your co-corkers who don't even hear you yelp because, while it seems to be ear splitting in your own head, the spices have actually sucked the breath out of you and it is a silent scream. Even as you walk in circular fashion around the office frantically flapping your arms like a chicken trying to whip up some semblance of a cool breeze to save yourself, you'll only come to realize that your co-workers think this behavior is normal for you. The only dismaying part of your lunch experience will be if you were stupid, like me, and only got a half order. #pahotwingsareforwussies”
“I always enjoy coming here or brining friends when they visit. The food is great and the everyone working has always been so nice. The chef inspired foods allow your taste buds to go wild with happiness. There may be a wait on the weekends, however for the quality it is worth it.”

“This has been one of my favorites since the mid 90s. My family brought me today for Mother’s Day. Ya’ll…they killed it. Every table full, food coming out fresh and speedy fast, servers everywhere assisting one another to keep the well oiled machine working, and tons of well wishes for the day. I hope each server, cook, host, and manager is able to kick up their feet this evening knowing you did a fabulous job and made many moms extra happy today!”
“We had a great time at this acclaimed restaurant, with an eclectic menu, such as the glazed pigs ears in lettuce wraps. The former residence has multiple rooms, on two levels, and our one regret is that we sat in a room with about ten tables, and the hard-scape decor meant that the noise level was just below the decibel level of bars on Broadway Stu’s neon district.”
“Riley S. was awesome for our family birthday party. There were 11 of us...5 were children so there was a lot going on. Riley S. was beyond patient with us and prompt with our drink and food orders. She made the outing fun for all!”

“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!”
“Good quick fuel up location with a Whataburger, a large variety of snacks, with a reasonable amount of foods that are healthy alternatives to the usual amount of "Corporations-get-rich-at-the expense-of-citizen-health" foods. But that is what the general public wants so Corporations can't be solely blamed.”
“The workers can be a little rude but over all is a good business and the pizza OMG FYE ???
Vegetarian options: They offer veggie pizza
Kid-friendliness: It's a store ??♀️?? plus I have witness workers give kids candy for free so that's pretty kid friendly to me lol
Parking: Plenty of parking it have a laundromat beside it”
“Ever since my last review the crew has changed several times. I have stopped here twice within the last month. Same server both times. It's take out only. I place my order and wait in my truck. I don't know, but this server both times seemed to forget my order and serve several people who showed up after me. I've had to remind her both times I was still waiting. A light bulb goes off and she gets my food. Both times I've had to eat cold food. If you stop here during the graveyard shift you better stay on top of the server or you'll end up being bumped to the end of the line and eating cold food.”
“It is located inside the gas station. When you walk in, you want to go to the left. Now you have your cashier in front, and to the right, you'll have the options yo get snacks and drinks like any other gas station. If you want a hot meal. They do have, but if you want a little more for your money, I do recommend eating here. The prices are good and the food will put a smile on your face.”
“Great service great atmosphere everyone friendly great experience”
“We had phenomenal service and the food was absolutely fabulous! The flavors were unique, the presentation was beautiful, and every detail was clearly well thought out. The entire team did an outstanding job from start to finish. Couldn't recommend this place more highly!”

“I would consider this one of the best quick food places to eat in Nashville. The food was great and the service was extremely nice and fast with orders. We had the crispy magic dumplings first which were exactly that. Magic! The other dishes were an order of noodles and pad kra pow. Both full of flavor and spice like no other. Simple sit down restaurants dont usually have these types of flavor options for under $100. Can't beat it.”

“I don't have enough time in the day to express how great this place is! The food is perfect, environment is a vibe, and service is TOP NOTCH! Every. single. time.
What really makes every visit amazing, is the employees! When you walk in, you're greeted with the best atmosphere. I can go on and on but I'm sure you get the gist by now! 10/10!
TITAN UP! (Go Steelers!)”

“If you are looking for an unforgettable dining experience, Edessa Restaurant in Nashville, Tennessee is the place to be. As someone who has traveled almost 80 miles to indulge in the delicious Turkish food, I can attest that Edessa Restaurant is a hidden gem that should not be missed. The restaurant's ambiance is warm and inviting, with friendly staff who welcome you with a smile. The service is prompt, and the food always arrives hot and fresh. The menu is detailed in English, making it easy to understand, and there is no confusion when it comes to choosing what to order. What makes Edessa Restaurant stand out is the presentation of their food, which is nothing short of jaw-dropping. Each dish is beautifully plated, and the flavors are expertly balanced. The cleanliness of the restaurant is also noteworthy, ensuring a comfortable and hygienic dining experience. In my recent visits, our server Hanan was exceptional. Her name in Arabic means "Tenderness with compassion and affection," and she truly lived up to her name by providing prompt and attentive service with a smile. As someone who has tried various types of cuisine from different cultures, I can confidently say that Edessa Restaurant's Turkish food and service are unmatched. I highly recommend anyone looking to try something new and unique to visit Edessa Restaurant in Nashville, TN. I give it 5 stars, and it is undoubtedly the number-one Turkish restaurant around.

“Avo in Nashville is a must-visit! The cheese platter is absolutely incredible—perfectly curated and packed with flavor. It’s definitely a must-do when you’re there. The pesto penne primavera was amazing, with fresh, vibrant flavors that really stood out. And don’t miss out on the avocado margarita—it’s a unique and delicious twist on a classic cocktail that you’ll want to try! The vibe is laid-back yet trendy, and the food and drinks are top-notch. Highly recommend if you’re looking for great vegan food and a fun experience!”
“Amazing atmosphere, phenomenal food and drinks, and great service. We did have an issue upon arrival wherein our group of 10 (celebrating a bachelorette weekend, reservation made months in advance) was going to be seated in two groups of 5 across the room from each other. However, a member of our party spoke to management and we were quickly accommodated and ended up with a WONDERFUL waitress. Great experience - I highly recommend dining here at least once during a visit to Nashville!”
“We were in Nashville for a concert & found Little Hats online & decided to check it out because the reviews were so good. We were not disappointed at all! The customer service was phenomenal! The two beautiful ladies at the front were super friendly & helpful & very easy to talk to. The food was so good that we had to go back for more the next day to take back home to Indiana with us! The bolognese was some of the best pasta i’ve ever had! We found several things in the market area to take home & make for ourselves & the sandwiches we got for the cooler for our trek back home traveled well & were still delicious hours later. We are so glad we found Little Hats! Thank you for the awesome dining experience! 🖤”
“We went to Haper's this weekend to celebrate a friend's birthday, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish! This was the perfect pick for a special occasion, everything from the ambiance to the service was top-tier. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with a warm and inviting atmosphere. Every staff member we encountered was incredibly friendly, and the food was absolutely delicious across the board. What truly made the night unforgettable was our server, Branson. He was phenomenal...knowledgeable, personable, and attentive. His thoughtful recommendations and kind and fun demeanor elevated the entire evening. He even ended the night with a sweet surprise for the birthday girl, which was such a thoughtful touch! We highly recommend Haper's for any important dinner or celebration, you'll be in great hands!”
“Friday night after a few drinks late night at some local bars and not wanting to drive far from our hotel, we ordered from here and LOVEDDDD it. Pizza was hot, fresh ingredients & we ate every single slice. To top it off they graciously added a 2 liter of sprite to our order that we didn't even order & let us use their restroom. That following Sat we decided to try something different on the menu & we still were more than happy. The small calzone was HUGE and full of ingredients but not too much. The cheesesteak hoagie was a great portion too. 4 people ate just those 2 things and we all we FULL! And again we were offered a free soda. We now all have this placed saved for our return to Nashville”
“We stopped in while in Nashville. We were the first in the restaurant and were greeted by the. AMAZING staff. We didn’t have a reservation but were treated very well. We weren’t sure what we wanted to order so our server gave us some recommendations that didn’t disappoint. From the drinks to the end we were checked on frequently. Steak was like butter and cooked to perfection. Yes, the prices are high. That being said we will be returning and have recommended it to several friends as a “must try” while visiting Nashville.”
“My wife visited here about 6 months ago and got coffee on her way to the airport and hasn’t stopped talking about it since. We’re here for New Years and she made sure we came by. I got an iced white mocha, which is better than anyone I’ve ever had anywhere else and we also shared a Biscoff cheesecake which was absolutely incredible. The staff is super friendly and the coffee is amazing, you can’t go wrong if you come check this place out.”

“Food was incredible as well as the cocktails. Hostess was very kind but as soon as our server got to us it was very apparent she did not want to be at work. Felt uninviting during our entire dinner and never once came to check on us after receiving our order. Instead, she stayed on her phone and chatted with other servers. More than likely just a bad apple but hopefully the rest of the servers have a better attitude.”
“Service was amazing as usual! Seafood of the day was amberjack which I added to the grain bowl, and it seemed to be overcooked because it was extremely dry. The rest of the dish was good, but I did not enjoy it nearly as much as the mushroom vegetarian dish that was on the previous lunch menu.”
Fine Dining
“This was an amazing food and wine journey. Do yourself a favor and get the wine pairing (if you drink) as the Somm was spot on and extremely talented! The food was so creative, fun, and delicious. The environment is engaging and fun. Honestly it was better to us then The French Laundry for creativeness, approachability and environment. Everything was simply amazing while relaxed and fun. The chefs are beyond talented, chatting with you while building and keeping their rhythm on their dishes. It was a phenomenal adventure and we can’t wait to go back!”
“Hands down the best all around dinner experience in Nashville. Presentation was off the charts! This was our first time visiting, they had a “Christmas Eve” menu which looked delicious but we came with our hearts set on the steak; no questions asked the kitchen was happy to adjust, we received the best steak we have tasted yet! The staff was beyond wonderful, the atmosphere was perfect. Love love loved Yolan; this will be a must have every time we visit Nashville! Thank you Yolan for the perfect Christmas Eve experience!”
“Had an absolutely amazing dinner here for a company event. I’ve been to many fine dining establishments, and I think this one is the best. Food was wonderful, drinks were on point and the staff were so professional but fun and totally vibed with us. If I’m ever in Nashville again, this will be a must to visit again. Thank you for having us!!”
“We came here for a girls' night out and were absolutely blown away! The restaurant offers a stunning panoramic view of the Nashville skyline, creating a beautiful ambiance. The food was exceptional! The tuna tartare, prepared tableside, was incredibly fresh with great flavor--an absolute must-try!! The duck fat fries were perfectly crispy and served with three delicious sauces, each one better than the last. The steak was cooked perfectly medium, juicy and tender, and the seared scallop on the side was a delightful addition. This spot is perfect for a girls' night out or a rom”
“Beautiful experience in a beautiful space. The open concept with the pristine kitchen right in the middle. Watching the chefs work to deliver unique presentations. Service was outstanding. It shows that all staff really love what they do. It is hard to describe the dishes, you just have to experience them. I’d recommend the feast.”
“We celebrated our anniversary at Eddie V's.
Every single part of the restaurant was exquisite! Our server Casey was the real deal!
I'm born & raised here and can honestly say this Is the BEST Steakhouse in Nashville! I've been to them all.
Eddie V's- thank you for the unforgettable experience!”
“What a fantastic experience. Everything we had on our tasting menu was out of this world. We kept trying to pick our favorite dish of the night but ended up agreeing that everything was on the same incredibly high level of excellence.Fantastic place to go for birthdays, anniversaries, or very special occasions. We would love to go again!”
“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.”
“"We ate at Kayne Prime for our Honeymoon and Everyone was above and beyond our expectations. The food was incredible and the service was top notch. Thank you again for such a memorable experience. Steve & Kathy Anderson"Copy review”
“Such good food at good prices. Staff was amazing, so friendly and quick. If you’re in Nashville looking for a good dinner that won’t make you completely broke, come here!”
“Fantastic meal! Love the menu. We sat outside but beautifully elegant ambience inside. About an hour or so before we walked over to eat I stopped in and got a menu and the ladies at the hostess podium were super kind. When we came back we were again met by a very helpful employee, Delilah. She sat us immediately and ended up being our server for the meal. She was thorough and knowledgeable. The service and the meal were perfect! We will absolutely be regularly returning and we will be requesting Delilah every time. Great experience and I would highly recommend this place to anyone! P.S.- They do lunch from 12-3pm, happy hour (including apps) from 3-6pm. And apparently they have a rooftop (kid friendly) open on Friday & Saturday evenings until 12am.”
Cheap Eats
“Curry and Tikka is my favorite restaurant in my area. The food is so delicious, the people are super friendly and the desserts are incredible. I usually get a mango lassi, Delhiwalla Chicken Tikka, and the carrot dessert. I need to try their buffet, too. So, just saying…it’s so great and I don’t want anyone to miss out.”
“When there's a line, I join! I waited about 10 minutes and was seated. While waiting, locals and tourists raved about the place and made recommendations. I ordered the East Nasty and a coffee. It was good but I wasn't floored by it.
Other than that, great service and atmosphere.”
“I didn’t know what to expect, my first time trying Uzbek food ever! The naan is huge, and very different. The beef liver kebab was excellent, as well as the meatsai. I wished the rice was not dry, or was it supposed to be like that? Atmospheres was fine, I got the casual family oriented feeling. I came for dinner and the place was 3/4 full. Service was good, I just wished I asked if it came with rice or naan, instead of just order the giant naan ?”
“I can not emphasize enough that this is THE BEST VEGAN ICE CREAM ever to have come into existence. Words fail me here, so rich, the best mouth feel and a wonderful variety of flavors. I came from Michigan to Nashville with my partner and this was the highlight of the trip for me!🤤🤤🤤🤤😁”
“Went this morning around 10:30 am on a Saturday. I knew there would be a wait. As a single diner, my wait was roughly 25 minutes. Jessica was my waitress and she was amazing. I ordered Keke's Combo which was 2 pancakes and 2 sides (you choose one item in 2 different lists). I paid an extra $3 to get my pancakes as "Banana Caramel Pecan." Also got sausage links and Home Fries for my two sides. The pancakes were huge. The $3 upgrade for the Banana Caramel Pecan was worth it. I will say that they definitely do not give near enough butter. But since I got fancy sweet pancakes, I didn't need more butter. The home fries were pan fried red skinned potatoes. They were awesome. I love potatoes prepared this way. It was also a healthy portion. There were 4 sausage links included in the order which I feel is a good portion. I feel most places only give you 2 links. My tip is if you are going with a party of 3 or more, expect a longer wait especially if you go at prime brunch times. The kitchen was still getting their rhythm so it took a little time to get the food. They just opened 8 days ago, so I totally understand that. If you get pancakes, just request the extra butter from the get go. I fully enjoyed the experience and there is so much on that menu I want to try. I will 100% be back.”
“I had the shrimp and chorizo Benedict. It was delicious! I was disappointed in the hash browns. Personally I like them crispy, but these were mush served on the plate with an ice cream scoop.
The place was cute and clean. It did feel a bit rustic. It was a bit pricey as well. Will we come back? Absolutely!”
“The Authentique is a charming French wine bar nestled in the heart of East Nashville, where the warm hospitality of owners Philippine and Alexandre sets the stage for a delightful dining experience. The cozy atmosphere, combined with top-tier customer service, creates a welcoming environment for guests. The menu features a delightful array of sweet and savory crêpes, prepared with recipes passed down through generations, alongside a delectable steak tartare and carefully curated charcuterie boards. The wine selection is impressive, with the option of fun wine flights to complement the exquisite flavors of the dishes. The restaurant also offers great happy hour deals and nightly specials, with the added bonus of live music on Fridays and Saturdays. The overall experience at The Authentique is a true gem not to be missed. Bon appétit!”

“2024: they have vegan pimento cheese toasts that are incredible! Service was good. Booze is boozy. We ordered two seasonal cocktails and two more off the menu - all were excellent. In a city where the $14 cocktail is the new normal, The Fox has become a stand out.
2018 Review: Competing in a crowded field of 'posh-lite' cocktail bars and it just doesn't have that wow factor.
Vegetarian options: Vegan pimento cheese!!”

“Great experience with the friendliest staff in town. The food is outstanding and well worth a visit. A local’s favorite for sure.”
“Amazing tapas bar with great wines and fun drinks. Gluten free options. The chef is a wizard! The staff went the extra mile to accommodate food allergies. I wish I could give them 11 stars.”
“This place is fabulous! The waitstaff, Matthew was very attentive. The food was ahhhmazing!!!”
“A fun place with a great experience great staff - fast -hot yummy food - swing in!”
“Good vibes. Amazing staff. And the food… good grief. I haven’t had tapas so good since I was in Spain. Everything was absolutely amazing and the olive oil cake was out of this world.”
“We stopped in on a Tuesday afternoon and were thrilled they had 2 for 1 beers! I love the vibe, the scenery, the drafts, and the bartender was very nice & helpful. Also big compliments to whoever takes care of the plants! I've never seen so many live plants thriving like that!”
“First time at the new location and thoroughly enjoyed it. The ambience is great and service was outstanding (Thank you Grant). We had the Frutti di Mare and Veal Saltimbocca and both were equally outstanding. Nice wine list as well. Dress business casual as most fine dining restaurants are, so best to avoid dressing overly casual (Swartz, flip-flops, tank tops, caps, etc).”
“We came here for a girls' night out and were absolutely blown away! The restaurant offers a stunning panoramic view of the Nashville skyline, creating a beautiful ambiance. The food was exceptional! The tuna tartare, prepared tableside, was incredibly fresh with great flavor--an absolute must-try!! The duck fat fries were perfectly crispy and served with three delicious sauces, each one better than the last. The steak was cooked perfectly medium, juicy and tender, and the seared scallop on the side was a delightful addition. This spot is perfect for a girls' night out or a rom”
“The chicken and sausage gumbo was to die for. I will definitely be back for more if I ever pass through the area again.”
“New place opened 2 months ago, very nice and good beer, friendly staff and their Grand opening is this Sat 8/26!! Go check it out!! 🍺🍻”
“Wasn’t really expecting much when I first walked in, just a nice dinner.
Everything is shareable so it’s not a standard meal service.
The food, was mind blowingly good, everything was amazing.
I’d work here just to eat the food 😂
Our server was great, owner dropped by our table and was a really nice guy
Will absolutely go back”
“Great location. Not in downtown! Easy in and out. Food is always delicious! We had a terrific waitress! She was seasoned. By that, I mean her experience had some years behind it. We've never had SUCH a great waitress. She brought or offered before we ever knew we needed it. She was AMAZING!”
“What an experience. Spending time with song writers, singing and telling their stories. Amazing afternoon, good food and good company. I highly recommend.”
“Velvet Taco has great tasting flavor combinations, But… the tortillas are cold grocery store type. I ended up just eating the inside of my tacos with chips because the tortillas reminded me of playdoh… change the tortillas to a more authentic (cooked) tortilla and it’ll be sooo much better!!”
“Excellent food, wine and service. From our server to the guys working the kitchen, we had a blast and awesome meal at the pizza counter seats!!!”
“Went twice while in Nashville and both times were a delight. Great staff and the pizza was phenomenal!”
“We celebrated our anniversary at Eddie V's.
Every single part of the restaurant was exquisite! Our server Casey was the real deal!
I'm born & raised here and can honestly say this Is the BEST Steakhouse in Nashville! I've been to them all.
Eddie V's- thank you for the unforgettable experience!”
“Omg this is the BEST omelette in Nashville! And believe me I’ve tried them all.
I’m a total brekky person always looking for new places to try and today I was tired of all the other places I’ve been with the same old avocado toast and poached eggs … or the southern places which never have an espresso machine.
So I searched… and searched…. A loooot. And it so paid off!!! Lucky I found them! Because they’re listed under seafood restaurant haha which I don’t even eat. But I saw breakfast on the menu and off we went. And we had the most perfect meal!
I had the veggie omelette with spinach peppers and onions and with feta cheese and a wheat toast (so happy they provide that option for those who need it), and my husband had the ham omelette with the yummy potatoes and we also had drinks and their famous biscuit which is to die for! It comes with a house made jam that is so fresh and delicious!
That’s it, I don’t need to look no more, from now on everytime I want eggs for breakfast we’re going thereeee!
And one more thing to add - I am diabetic so it’s always hard to find drinks that are sugar free around Nashville, especially mocktails (and that needs to change btw but that’s a review to all the bars and restaurants as a whole haha) but anyhow - this place made it great with a virgin and skinny mojito that was refreshing and lovely!
Now we’ll have to try their dinner menu too, I hope it’s just as good! 🤩”
“Great place! Great drinks! Amazing atmosphere & a very welcoming vibe! 10/10 recommend”
“Miller was our waiter. We had not dined there previously. There were four of us. We opted for the “ grub experience”. ( I think is what it was called). Miller chose a family style meal for the four of us to share. It was beyond fantastic. This topped Off a week of some fine dining and it surpassed all. We cannot wait to dine in again. Miller was absolutely outstanding in his skill and service.”
“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!”
“We’d worked hard and decided to try an Italian place we hadn’t tried before. We chose Salento Italia and what a good move! The service by Taylor was superb and the spaghetti with cauliflower was delish and my husband’s shrimp scampi was yummy too! Great place!!!”
“Katie was our server the other night and she made it one of the best server experiences we ever had. My husband left his card at our table and she returned it to the front desk. Her honesty is refreshing and she went above and beyond to serve us the best way she could.”
“I have been here several times. I also recommend it to anyone I know looking to experience Italy right here in Nashville. Great service and food. Highly recommend Happy Hour as well.”
“Food is incredible!! Service is great! We tried the hamachi, crispy tuna, and salmon - all excellent. Salmon was our fave. We also ordered dumplings, truffle Mac n cheese and kimchi risotto. The kimchi risotto is a must try! Drinks were great too. Will be back!”
“Read about this restaurant on Eater Nashville, so had high expectations. It mostly lived up to it. The Focaccia crust pizza is fantastic, especially topped with burratta. However, the fennel salad was a little bland and grilled dates ok. The restaurant was cozy and excellent service.”
“It's a small place and we had a long wait for brunch. We went across the street to Southern grist to wait it out. We loved the upon. It was like a Japanese carbonara. The egg salad took me back to 7/11 in Japan. We also enjoyed the tartare and katsu sando.”
“Phenomenal. At a loss for words at how good our meal was tonight.”
“Attended the Taste of the Yucatan private event here on Nov 12, 2024. This was a great intro for locals to get to know a fairly recent entry onto the 12 South scene-- and let me tell you they made a very compelling case for why they should be the Go-To neighborhood spot for area diners. Out of town foodies will love it too, but the owners really wanted to pitch local with the event. The menu for the evening featured flavors from the Yucatan peninsula, which also pull from the Caribbean apparently. The flavors on many of the plates were complex, yet some of the dishes had a home cooked vibe, like a handed-down family recipe-- made new by Chef Santibañez. Cocktails, wine, and other bar offerings were all exceptional. Overall, the food was stunning, and the entire evening was a treat. Another notable highlight was the service: having well-trained and attentive servers add to the atmosphere seems rare to find these days, but Fonda fielded a great crew for the event. Lastly, as a local, one of the more frustrating challenges in convincing my wife and I to go out in Nashville for dinner is dealing with parking, especially in areas like 12 South. Some friends who also attended were able to walk over from their home near Belmont, while we drove over from Green Hills. So a huge asset (for me) is that Fonda has their own parking right behind the restaurant! And it's validated! I highly recommend giving this restaurant a visit.”
“First time eating here and let me tell you it was fabulous!!!! 5 stars”
“We were in town for just a few days. Looked for Italian near our hotel and read great reviews of Caffe Nonna. It lived up to those. My husband and I split a salad and the Nonna lasagna and the tiramisu for dessert. It was all delicious. The two types of bread were both excellent. Would highly recommend this little gem!”
“ate here for the first time. certainly unique for Nashville. authentic the real deal”
“Been several times and always enjoyed the music. Just a small place but get there for open mic night to see the performances, very cool. A very different experience than most other bars around Broadway, chill vibes and good.music.”
“we went to see the Dave Potter Trio last night while on vacation. great jazz club with incredibly awesome servers and bartenders. an absolute must stop place in Nashville, the world needs more jazz clubs like Rudys!”
“This was an amazing food and wine journey. Do yourself a favor and get the wine pairing (if you drink) as the Somm was spot on and extremely talented! The food was so creative, fun, and delicious. The environment is engaging and fun. Honestly it was better to us then The French Laundry for creativeness, approachability and environment. Everything was simply amazing while relaxed and fun. The chefs are beyond talented, chatting with you while building and keeping their rhythm on their dishes. It was a phenomenal adventure and we can’t wait to go back!”
“This was a highlight of our girls trip to Nashville. The songwriters were so engaging & great story tellers. We were able to hear some well known songs as well as some originals. We had a great time!!”
“One of the absolute best little gems to hit the East Nashville scene in the last couple years. The Lao menu that changes regularly never disappoints, and for all you sommeliers out there, their wine menu is top notch. Service is beyond stellar too. This has become a regular spot for my girlfriend and I for a fancy-causal late night date night. The vibes are immaculate. Cannot recommend Bad Idea enough!”
“It’s been 25 years It’s been 25 years since we have eaten at Darfons in Donaldson. We were last there when we actually lived in Donaldson and it was in the old location on Donaldson Pike. I found everything about the new location excellent. The food, the service, the facility. I think that’s what a restaurant is supposed to be all about. 🧐 I’m so glad we made the 30 minute drive from West Nashville. It really wasn’t all that far. Upon arrival, the host quickly seated us at a nice table. I have family visiting including a nine month old and they made every accommodation. It was very nice. The next person we saw was John our waiter. He was knowledgeable and efficient and made several good recommendations. I asked him if I should order the prime rib or the lamb chops and without missing a beat he said the lamb chops. So I ordered them cooked medium, and they were probably the best lamb chops I’ve been served in a restaurant in Nashville. One exception might be midtown Cafe 30+ years ago. They were always awesome. We also ordered several specials, including the aged pork chop and the wahoo fish. Both were excellent. The place was packed and everybody seemed to be very happy. I had fibbed just a bit on the reservation and said it was my birthday. Who doesn’t love a free dessert? Best crème brûlée I’ve had in Nashville in a long, long time. The bread pudding was good not great as was the salted caramel ice cream. The trip home was delightful as I got our chauffeur to take us the long way home on Briley Parkway. We passed by Shopreiland and then the Opryland hotel. After that, there were a whole lot of trees on the way back to White Bridge Road. Rest assured it will not be 25 more years before I walk through the doors of Darfons . I could tell when I walked in that the place was all about food and they had a great handle on standards and consistency and absolute food quality. Very refreshing in this day and time. You’ll find Darfons on Elm Hill Pike very close to Donaldson Pike. Give it a try you won’t regret it.”
“Delicious food and great service! My husband and I had the brisket tacos and they were delicious! Best BBQ sauce I’ve ever had!”

“This place is absolutely amazing and such kid friendly. I loved the food it was so good, and this is the first time my little Timmy actually ate international food I was so stoked. The service was amazing my server was Miki, I also think she is the owner, she was just amazing and so nice to me and my family. Also, this place was really clean. I give this place my full recommendation. 20/10”
“I would recommend this food service to all that I meet. I was pleasantly surprised. I receive big meaty fish pieces and generous portions of my side dishes. It was enough for me to make 2 meals out of my order. The beautiful lady was so nice, and we even wished each other a Happy Mother's Day. I came from Opry Mills Mall to Edd Temple Blvd and I'm happy I made the trip. I will be back.”
“EVERY time I come here (which is quite often) The food is out of this world!!! This time, I got Daddy's calzone. First of all the crust, is amazing not too hard not too soft perfectly crunchy. And the inside the vegetables are perfectly cooked the flavor is amazing! This is the best calzone I've ever had in my entire life! Sorry about the photo I couldnt wait to eat”
“I've traveled all over Mexico and I speak Spanish. When I found this place, I honestly felt like I was on the street in Aguascalientes or some place similar. Now be braced people. This is not what we think of when we go to Las Palmas or any other conventional Nashville Mexican restaurant. This place does NOT cater to gringos. It is 100% true Mexican and this is where the local Mexicans go to eat. Even the help doesn't speak English, so take your translator app. Seriously, for anyone that would like to know what it's REALLY like to eat in Mexico, this is the place. And the food is fantastic. There will be Mexican music playing on one end of the place and a Novela on the TV at the other end. The other customers will be Mexicans complete with their work clothes and straw western hats. I love it here and I promise that I'm going to be a regular customer.”
“Just yet another shout out to Fortuna! New menu item is the zucchini fritter appetizers. Absolutely outstanding. I could happily make a meal out of those and the Bang Bang shrimp appetizer. We had the eggplant parmigiano on our last visit and it was delicious. As always the cocktails ae fantastic (thanks to bartenders Andrew and Marina) along with a really good wine list. Speaking of wine, we have a really busy July but hope to make it to one of the Saturday wine tastings with Lea Carleo, the General Manager and Sommelier. As always the service provided this time by Serena was excellent. If you haven't been you are mssing out!”

“I was in the Nashville location on 1/28 during my visit to the area. It was packed but everything moved quickly, efficiently and the staff was so very friendly to everyone. That didn’t stop just at the start but all throughout our time there. The lady helping us (her name was Isis, I believe) even followed back up with us on something. Her and the manager went above and beyond to take care of us on something we didn’t even ask them to. Btw, nothing happened, they were just out of something, it came back in and they took care of us. A measure most would not do but she found us and made sure to take care. Now THAT is friendly customer service! The food is so amazing, y’all. This is going to be my new joint for every single visit to Nashville from now on. Hot dayum!!”

“**Absolutely incredible experience at SupperClub on Belcourt!** From the moment we arrived, the service was next-level. My friends and I didn’t have a reservation and were just hoping to escape the rain. One of the owners, *Mr. Joe Johnson*, happened to be pulling up as we walked up, and he was so kind and welcoming, he let us come inside even though they technically weren’t open for dinner yet. About 10 minutes later, the hostess asked if we had a reservation (we didn’t), and explained they were fully booked. We totally understood and started to head out, but as we were walking out, Mr. Johnson saw us again and was like, *“Where y’all going?”* When we told him the situation, he said *“Naw, I got y’all, come on.”* He gave us a private dining room with just the four of us, and treated us like royalty. That kind of hospitality is rare these days and I truly appreciated it. Not to mention the vibe was also on point! Our server *William* was amazing, attentive, knowledgeable, and just all-around cool. Now the food? **Phenomenal.** We had: * Lamb chops * Filet mignon * Lasagna * Spinach dip * Drop Kickin’ Shrimp * Catfish * Caesar salad * Loaded mashed potatoes And I had a drink called *Angel’s Envy*—so smooth, so good. By far one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. SupperClub has earned a customer for life!!!”
“Worth the hype!! Everything was delicious! We arrived around 8:25 with no wait but soon after arriving they were on a wait! Also, they will not seat you until everyone is there! We ordered biscuits and gravy (no picture), Vanilla Lemon Waffles, Foraging Farmer Omlette with loaded Grits, NASHVILLE HOTTIE, ICED STRAWBERRY MATCHA, Migas Scramble, and Togo we got Churro Croissant (we also had one for an appetizer and needed one Togo, haha) Twice Baked Almond, Chocolate Babka Croissant, Lil Deborah and their dog treats for our baby in the car waiting!! Cute fire place also!!”
“Corra on the rooftop was an incredible experience! I had heard rave reviews about this bar and had eagerly awaited my visit since it opened. My time there was truly elevated by the excellent service. The drinks were exceptional, and the food was delicious. I can't wait to return, especially to see the fantastic staff! If you haven't already, do yourself a favor and check out Corra on the rooftop—you won't regret it!”
“My "3" overall rating was because they were out of coffee! I look forward to having a good cup of coffee with my mid-day lunch but I was told that somebody "forgot to order" coffee so they were out and had been out for a couple of days. I asked for a Root Beer instead. Guess what, the drink machine was out of the carbonation so I couldn't get that either. Just didn't feel too good about a restaurant that serves both these beverages being out of them for a few days! Lol. Everything else was a very definite "5" star rating. My server(Jordan)was great. He was very apologetic for the lack of drinks, he was knowledgeable about the menu, friendly but still professional, attentive but not intrusive. He let me enjoy my food. The particular lunch special I got included an Appetizer, Entre and choice of Rice and it was about half the dinner price. I ordered the Crab Rangoon and it was delicious. It was hot, fresh and fried to a nice crunch. For my entre, I had the Teriyaki Chicken Bowl with Fried Rice and it was excellent. The chicken was tender, the vegetables were crisp, the Teriyaki seasoning was perfect and the Pineapple chunks gave it a sweet and tangy taste. It's new but it may just become my favorite over the Spicy Orange Chicken. For dessert, I got the individual Key Lime Pie and it was so very good. But my favorite and I think the most delicious is still the Chocolate Peanut Butter Cream Pie. You won't go wrong if you choose to dine at P.F. Chang's. I highly recommend it.”
