It’s a beautiful place and has a nice vibe to it. My husband and I went there for brunch, and we felt immediately rushed by our server. The menu options are all a play on words with most of the items, you need to read the description to see what you are getting. I was overwhelmed with the server coming over every 2-3 minutes asking if we were ready, when I wasn’t. Feeling rushed, I just ordered something quickly for her sake. I have bad anxiety and hated to keep bothering our waitress. The restaurant wasn’t busy, either. Food was subpar. The cinnamon rolls with cream cheese is delicious! I wasn’t a fan of my meal due to lack of knowledge and being rushed. The sausage and eggs with a slice of cheese looked straight out of a holiday express free breakfast buffet (no joke). I’m sure the place is much more suited for dinner entrees, but brunch did not meet the mark for me and the service really was disappointing.

Went on a Monday evening with coworkers. They were out of several items. Food lacked flavor.

We came for Valentine's Day dinner and it did not disappoint! I had an expresso martini and the Lobster mac off the special menu, both were superb! The waiter we had was super nice as well! Definitely will be back every trip to Nashville!

My boyfriend & I came for Valentine’s Day. I did read the recent reviews, but I wanted to give this place the benefit of the doubt. We think there may have been a slight plating/timing issue within the kitchen. His mashed potatoes were cold & his chicken was hot (Bird is the Word), and my noodles were cold in the center but hot on the outside (Pasta La Vista). Also, my plate was piping hot. I would hate to think it was microwaved, but I’ve watched enough Hell’s Kitchen to know a piping hot plate and lukewarm food may hint at that. The seasoning was there, and our server was trying his best. We did not want to make his night more difficult by complaining. For $89 (this does include a 20% gratuity), I would not say it was worth it.

Beautiful decor, super friendly staff from the front door to the waiter. Delicious food! The sauces and seasonings were spot on. Even had a kids menu!!! Loved the seating with booth and chairs. Bathroom decor was spot on what i would imagine for Maneet Chauhan. Parking was at the whole foods grocery store and was crazy busy so hard to find a spot. Still cost $13 with validation at the restaurant. Then we walked the block and saw they had parking near restaurant. If it isn’t a busy time i would just park there instead.

Drink, Food, and Staff on point. We'll definitely return. Only thing we disliked was gratuity is already included in the bill. Even though it was on the bill. The server should have pointed it out. Especially after a few of their amazing drinks.

This atmosphere here is soooo nice. Quiet environment even with lots of people here having conversations. Mitchell was my server and he had great recommendations of the menu. We were a party of 6, we all had speciality drinks quickly and our food quick. The quality of the food is definitely top notch. I ordered the Bloody Mary and the bird is the word with the homemade hot cause. It was sooooo delicious. There were no bones in the thighs so very easy to eat. My sister got the So Sophisticated with gluten free modifications and the flavors are amazing together. Others got the Mac n cheese, belly of the beast, tots el tio fun!, Brussels spouts and wedge salads. Everyone had a great experience and loved their food. Definitely will come back when we are back in Nashville.
We have eaten here before and loved it. This time was miss the mark. It could have been because it was slow. Mac and Cheese was horrible very soupy.

Maybe I have high standards since I moved here from Chicago, but I thought it was just ok. Tuna poke app was lacking some flavor, pork belly app was pretty good, but hard not to be when it’s crsipy pork doused in soy sauce. Pesto bucatini entree was alright. Service was good. Ambiance was nice, booth seats were uncomfortable. Wine had cork floating in it. Overall felt like it was trying to be fancy, but was kinda cheap feeling?

Mockingbird is an apt name, as going in at the beginning of the meal had all the ambience and taste and care of a nice restaurant but eventually showed its true colors. Virgin punch and virgin mary drinks were wonderful. Grilled Brie sandwich appetizer was great. However, as the meal went on we did not see our server for 15-20 minutes at a time. The steak ordered medium rare came out overcooked with only the slightest tinge of pink. And the Brussels came out pretty plain, only to find later that all the drizzle had gone to the bottom of the bowl and we didn't taste it until we were almost done. Factor in validated parking and it was about $175 for two people with no alcohol. Not worth the cost in my opinion.
