Not a happy camper. The atmosphere is great, but our experience was not. Food took way too long to come out. And when it did, the scallops were too salty, and the crab cakes were well done. Short ribs were excellent. The fourth dish at our table was completely missing. They forgot the grilled chicken Caesar salad. But even that simple dish took so long the other diners were finished by the time they brought that out. Ridiculous. Manager Dan was too scared to even come to our table to address the situation, and as a former waiter, bartender, and restaurant manager - I was ticked off he left waitress hanging. They comped most of dinner, and I appreciate that, but I will never return.

Tonight’s dinner was at Evelyn’s in the Hutton Hotel.✅Jalapeño Cheddar Corn Bread (must have)✅Short Rib (this was yummy and super tender)✅old fashioned (perfectly balanced)✅scallops (this was good)❌crab cake (not a fan - smaller crab bits rather than lump crab). Best ones are at Eddie V’s.Service was great. Quick and attentive.They offer complimentary valet (with validation at the host’s desk) and also there’s cashless tip option but there is a fee of $1.65 to use it. So maybe bring cash.

Evelyn's was great. The food was the star of the show for sure. So tasty, fresh, and high quality ingredients. Crab cake, amazing. Ambiance depends on where you sit. I'd prefer toward center of restaurant. Prices were reasonable. I'm very picky and I'll definitely go back

Really enjoyed the food. I had the lobster bolognese and jalapeño cornbread. The Glamour Girl cocktail was perfect. The ambiance is dimly light (I went for dinner) and makes for a nice date night mood.Parking: Valet parking is free for restaurant guests.

The food and service were great but it was 7:30am in the morning and the music was VERY loud. We asked to have it turned down, as we were trying to have a business breakfast but it was never adjusted.

We had a wonderful meal at Evelyn's. It was nice to hear about the history of who Evelyn was. The brussels sprouts were amazing, scallops, tasty, and the short ribs were sublime.

Food outstanding. Sadly they suffer from being understaffed. Seemed to have one server, mgr Dan jumped in to help as did someone from kitchen. Beautiful renovated space and opened to the beautiful night air outside on west end ave/bway. West of all the downtown chaos!

I am in love with Evelyn’s! It’s definitely a hidden gem. I had never even heard of it but now I’ll definitely be going there atleast monthly. The entire staff was amazing! Our server Lindsey was very knowledgeable about the menu and she was super kind and friendly. The manager, a black guy was super awesome too. I was walking around looking for a place to plug up ny phone and he offered to plug it up for me at the host stand. He also checked on us several times throughout the night. The food was anazingggggg!! And it was so reasonably priced. I had the oven roasted chicken. It was super tender and juicy. It came with potatoes and asparagus that were also delicious. My friend had scallops. I didn’t try the scallops but the risotto that it came on top of was life changing! That was the best risotto I ever had in my life. I had dreams about that risotto. It was soo creamy and good. My other friend had sea bass and it was delicious as well. I plan on going back and getting the sea bass on top of the risotto. The cocktails were great! I had the “glamor girl” and the “train to no where.” They were both strong and delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed my entire experience and this might be my new favorite restaurant in Nashville. I feel like usually this quality of food costs like $50-60 just for the entree and then you have to purchase sides for an additional costs. All our entrees were between $28-$35 and they came with some type of side. The ambiance was great. It was cute. I can’t wait to go back!!Parking: Complimentary valet for 2 hours
Great steak and awesome service! Highly recommend!

Came for brunch and was very happy with the meal! 7 am weekday reservation and we had the restaurant all to ourselves! The service was attentive and hotel/restaurant is immaculately designed! The French toast was on some of the best bread I have ever had, but I was surprised by the caramel on it that was not on the menu that unfortunately took away from the dish! The hash browns were pretty good and hit the savory spot!

Beautiful, stylish, contemporary and relaxing atmosphere; friendly service, very enjoyable food. Had a tasty Negroni followed by a beet salad and sweet potato ravioli w/pomegranate, pecans, apples and toasted sage in a balsamic sauce...so good! Great first experience; looking forward to the next!

We enjoyed our brunch here. We loved the decor of the restaurant and the hotel. The food was very good. My friend had the yogurt and granola and said it was excellent. I had the breakfast sandwich with a sausage patty. I love the sauce that came on the sandwich. I loved that the valet parking was complimentary. Overall, the food was excellent and the price was great!
