We've been wanting to try E3 for a while, and finally went this evening—but it just didn't live up to the hype. The dining room was uncomfortably cold, which made it hard to settle in and enjoy the meal. The food was subpar: nothing we had stood out, and overall it lacked the flavor and polish we expect from a steakhouse at this level. Honestly, we def would've stayed home vs. dining here. I'm hopeful E3 can turn this around—warmer, more comfortable ambience and a tighter, more consistent kitchen would make a big difference. For now, though, it's hard to recommend based on our experience tonight.

It was not very busy when we came in on a Saturday, and decided to eat at the bar. Even so, our food took an incredibly long time, and when it came 2 out of the 3 steaks for our group were cooked incorrectly. Mine was ordered medium rare, and was so overcooked that it was completely grey throughout. Just a bad dining experience.

Food is overpriced for being fairly bland. Liked the Caesar salad. The Mac and cheese and mushroom sides both had zero flavor. Filet was fine, but nothing amazing, but not terrible either. Overall E3 fell short especially considering the cost.

Dinner was wonderful as always. But with only one parking attendant the parking was a nightmare. And we were an hour in before we had our food. But tasty as always.
Larissa
Service was so very slow. We were a party of 5, and we were there for over two hours. It just took forever to get our drinks, order food, get food, etc. The restaurant was not busy, so I have no idea what the problem was. My husband's steak was overcooked, but the last thing we wanted was to wait longer.

Very happy with our experience at E3. After eating at a handful of steak houses in Nashville they are definitely at the top of the list.
Super friendly staff from start to finish. Great drink menu and variety. All of the food was fantastic. The sides are very generous portion sizes. The steaks cooked wonderfully to everyone preference.
Overall 10/10 would strongly recommend. Will definitely be coming back.

Lovely server for our mid-week dinner date. Food was great and we learned something new about steaks.

Good looking restaurant inside and service was decent. Valet parking pretty much nonexistent and the food is way overpriced and average. Charged $42 for lobster that on the menu was listed for $30 and the explanation was, “we just changed the menu a few weeks ago”. They didn't offer to adjust the check, but asked me “do you want to change that??” Wasn't told by the server at any time when ordering or when check came...when I questioned they should have just offered immediately to change it. Again good looking Restaurant and the service was ok but after just not good.

Our waiter Gary was absolutely top-notch. A true professional and really nice. And, our food and drinks were amazing. We'll certainly be back.

It’s a great place to enjoy time if it’s a special occasion but it’s really pricey for Hillsboro Village and at large for Nashville. I love the quality of service and atmosphere! My food and service always being served at a high level and quality. But c’mon charging processing fee is 💯 unacceptable. Everyone is using credit card these days.
The food was just okay, with several orders a little messed up. For what you are paying, it was lacking in several areas. The service was the highlight of the night.

Staff was cheery and helpful. Staks were fair to midland. A bit grizzly for my taste. Oddly so was the Filet my guest ate.

We were celebrating our anniversary and our day was complete with our meal at E3 Chophouse! The valet was great. The hostess was great - our table was ready immediately upon arrival. Our server Aani was fantastic! He was very attentive to our needs, very helpful with the menu and to offer suggestions. He never rushed us and knew every item specifically and answered our questions successfully. Our drinks were never empty and he acknowledged our anniversary multiple times. On top of that, the food was wonderful! My wife got the sea bass and went on and on about it. And my steak…oh man was it spot on! So tender and flavorful! It was cooked perfectly! Everything was what we had hoped it would be. I would definitely recommend E3 Chophouse to anyone hungry! Thanks for making our anniversary celebration the best!

Worst experience ever. Came in with my girlfriend who was very excited to try it. And oh boy were we disappointed. The food was bland and steaks weren’t cooked at the right temperature. Our food took some time to arrive to the table and we just wanted to leave so we said nothing. On top of that, the place was a ghost town. And I see why. They also charge you as the guest a 3% credit card processing free and the server did not mention that at all… seems scammy. Maybe try not to gouge your guests for overcooked steaks and for using a credit card to pay if you want to last…? Would not recommend
