Great place to hang. Good food, good atmosphere and love the music. Decent location but park on the street cause parking at the restaurants are crazy expensive. I took my grilled cheese and tomato soup home and ate it the next day…still good!

Place looks great, should be a packed house with live music and style. However, there were maybe 30 people in the bar that should fit 200+. Food is average bar food but the service is horrible. Bartenders need to work on customer appreciation. Seemed like the Bartender was more annoyed with food and drink orders than appreciative she might walk out that night with some tips. My wife didn't even want to go back to order a 2nd drink because of her attitude. Left as soon as we finished the food because you can find music, atmosphere, and better attitudes most anywhere in Nashville.

Absolutely wonderful place! Food was excellent! Unfortunately bar tender spilled a beer while trying to serve it. Got pissed of when asked to make sure the beer wasn’t charged after spilling it. She threw it away getting annoyed. Decided to yell and try to kick us out after saying we didn’t grab the beer fast enough and that we spilled the beer not them. 2 people besides the bar tender saw what happened.

Bartender was not friendly at all. Order margaritas…horrible. Margarita mix with seltzer water.

My fiancé and I were staying in Midtown and came here Friday for some live music, we enjoyed the band so much we came back on Saturday. Saturday was a completely different story- all of the staff appeared to be drunk themselves and the bouncers were the some of the rudest people I’ve ever encountered. It was like they were trying to piss people off so they had a reason to kick them out. I wouldn’t recommend this establishment unless you wanna get flipped off by bar tenders and interrogated by the bouncers.

The bartender fell into me while she was drunkenly grinding on the guy sitting beside me. This was after she made me one of the worst drinks I've ever had, which was an absurd $17. Won't be back.

Came here last night with a group of friends. After waiting in line for nearly an hour, we finally got in. At first, everything was fine. Until about an hour after we got in, I walked downstairs to grab a drink from the bar. It was then that two employees grabbed me, forced me outside, and wouldn’t let me back in. I talked with some folks on the street who similarly said they had been thrown out for no other reason than that the employees wanted to make room for the new arrivals. Some sober friends I had come with came out and confirmed to the doorman that I nor anyone else had acted out, or done anything worthy of getting kicked out. He did not care however, and threw my friends out as well, again to make space for new arrivals. I have never encounter ruder workers at any bar I’ve ever been to, and I, nor any of my friends will ever be returning to Dogwood to waste our money on a single drink before being thrown to the curb on the whims of the doorman.

Used to be my go to dance club in Nashville, Especially whenever they had DJ 1L. They have one HUGE dance floor on the 2nd floor that makes it one of the rarer dance clubs more prominent in downtown nashville.However as of late, their 2 main DJs for friday and saturday DJ Recess and DJ Mojo, continuously will play the exact same playlist and will barely change it up throughout the night. Which can lead to you not wanting to come back very often.If you're a tourist, go for it. If you're a local, go once or twice then don't go back because you'll hear the same set.However, if their main DJs ever end up being out for whatever reason, their subs they end up bringing in are always awesome. Which makes me wonder what the ownership is looking for when their main DJs get outplayed by their subs but they still keep scheduling the same 2 djs for the same sets.This also could be a set controlled by Dogwood itself and they aren't giving the DJs a lot of freedom, regardless, this is just what i've seen clubbing here for the past 2 years.If they can just fix their DJ variety, this could easily end up being the best dance club in Nashville. So much potential, was so good here the previous year then it just dropped off the last 4-5 months. I may be an outlier in this opinion, but i'm sure i'm not the only local who has this opinion.

Sat down at a not very busy bar and nobody even bothered asking if I needed a drink or anything. ?
