Took my parents here for mother's day brunch and had the loveliest time. The servers complimented my mom on her outfit more than once and made her feel so special, and our server was beyond exceptional. The food was outstanding and the drinks were delish. Will definitely be returning! :)
Came for Mother's Day buffet brunch. Wasn't too busy at our 1:45 arrival time. Was seated immediately on the outside area. Sat for 15 minutes without being approached. Finally grabbed water off an empty adjacent table & helped ourselves to the buffet after I let a passing waiter know we were going to help ourselves but hadn't been waited on. Came back ate & made a few trips back & forth. Had to get another employees attention while up to get more water. Was going to order alcoholic beverages but since we never received table service other than empty plates being grabbed while we came & went we just opted to eat only. Finally got noticed while waiting for check. Waiter asked if we were ever approached & I said no. He asked if we wanted anything other than water but we had been there an hour & were done dining, so I said no just the check please. He got the 20% customary tip on a $127 bill but in reality I should have abstained since there was no service. Food was great, aesthetic was great, service absent wholly.

Went on Mother's Day and had a lovely time! Our server Ricky/Richie(?) was charming. The buffet was very unique with their many offerings. Eggs, pancakes, Belgium waffles, shrimp cocktail, hummus, smoked salmon, salads, deviled eggs, poached salmon, beef and so much more. The baklava was one of the best I've tasted. The cookies were ok. But what a bargain. Checked Nashville and couldn't believe the prices. Some buffets were well over $100! Seriously? Sadie's $38! They only do buffets I believe Easter, Mother's Day, Father's Day, thanksgiving and a few others. I overheard a server telling the table next to ours. Well worth the trip.
The service was good but the prices are high. We ordered two kabob entrees, two appetizers, two mixed drinks, one beer, and a lemonade for our daughter. The total before tip was $144 I could eat a steak dinner for that much

Love the light, green atmosphere. Unique Mediterranean brunch with a family style option. .

First time here and loved it! Interior is beautiful and the food matches. We both had the Chopped Israeli Salad, and it was like summertime in a bowl. Will most definitely be back.

Incredible, incredible food. We loved it for our date. The servers were incredible too.
The food here is fantastic (especially the whipped feta & kebabs)! We couldn't hear our server at all and she kept disappearing, but the good food made up for the average service. Would definitely recommend this to a friend!

Came 20 min early after making a reservation ahead of time. Asked if they could seat us and they grudgingly gave us the worst table in the place (plenty available), right by the kitchen door and wait station. Finished our drinks and left. If that is how they treat people who make a reservation, wonder how walk-ins get treated?

I was utterly bored by the food here. Nothing was BAD, so to speak, but it just wasn't interesting. The inside is really really beautiful though, and we went for prom dinner so that aspect of it was great. I just wouldn't go here do you're looking for real good food. Here's what we tried: -Hummus Plate: 8/10 - The hummus was very fresh, clearly made by hand, and topped with a lovely drizzle of olive oil. They give a LOT of hummus, though not as much pita. A great appetizer though, classic. -Braised Whole Lamb Shank: 6.5/10 - The meat itself was VERY tender, fell right off the bone. The flavor, however, of both the meat and the couscous/accompaniments, was lacking. -Artisan Fresh Pasta: 6/10 - Didn't love this. It was very fresh tasting, if that's what you're looking for, but the flavors didn't meld very well and I felt that I didn't taste much pesto. The shape of the pasta was fun, though. -Steak With Corn: 7.5/10 - The street corn was flavorful and creamy, so I really liked that, and I thought the green crema had an aromatic and bright flavor that complimented the rest of the dish. I didn't try the steak itaelf, though my partner said it was pretty average, but the accompaniments were enough to convince me that this was the best plate of the night. -Spiced Rainbow Carrots: 4/10 - A mountain of lukewarm, not super flavorful carrots with a honey yogurt drizzle that would be great if it was balancing something really rich but instead only contributed to the dullness. I wouldn't go back, but nothing was absolutely appalling.
Sadie's was the highlight of my recent Nashville trip! My friend said that she always brings out of town guests to Sadie's and I totally understand why! It was super crowded, but we had a reservation and were seated immediately. Our server was wonderful and made some great recommendations. We ordered a bunch of different dishes to share and every one of them was amazing. I will forever dream of the whipped feta. It was the perfect combination of sweet, salty, and savory. There were lots of vegetarian options, which I really appreciated. The mocktail menu was also pretty expansive. I tried a few different ones and they were all delicious! The pricing was reasonable as well, especially given the quality of the food and experience overall. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Sadie's to anyone. The food is great, the service is friendly and efficient, and the restaurant itself is beautiful with a light and airy ambiance that makes it perfect for meeting with friends or for date night.

I really enjoyed this spot. The patio outside on a nice Nashville day really makes the experience. The salads and the mezze plates were top notch. Fantastic dip options and everything was extremely fresh. The grill plates unfortunately were underwhelming and not all the great. Neither of us who got it ate much of it, and then proceeded to order the salads. That being said the burrata arugula salad was one of the better salads I have had. The drinks were also fresh and fun. I suggest the Mykonos.
The service is friendly, the food delicious and the presentation is lovely. We sat on the patio, which is lovely on a nice spring day but very loud. The cost was high for the amount of food we were served for lunch.

Not sure why it has such high reviews. Food service and atmosphere is fine but nothing special. Very average imo
Made a lunch reservation for 14 morning of when our usual place was suddenly not available. Fantastic locale, great vibe, service was outstanding. Handled our large group without issue and made for a really enjoyable lunch. We'll be coming again.
