What a great find on open table... service was prompt friendly and helpful. Nice drink selection. Filet sushi roll was great. Filet black and blue salad outstanding. The ambience was incredible. Decor was modern and elegant. There was a girl singing who was also very talented. We would definitely cone back here again sometime if back in Nashville.

We celebrated our anniversary here. It was such a great experience. Steve was the most professional waiter I've ever had. He really made our night feel special. Thank you Rutledge!

We went on a Monday and it was quiet. Service was attentive and the food was good. Unfortunately, one of our party's dinner came a solid 10min after everyone else had their food. It was the chicken sandwich and it was done very well. Sort of balanced the experience out.
