The Rutledge team did an amazing job hosting us for dinner. Our waiter Steve was amazing and helped us out answering all of our questions on the drinks and food menu and providing insights on the near by attractions. The shrimp wontons were the perfect starter for us and tasted really good with the hot honey sauce, the lobster rolls we had were absolutely delicious and the best we ever had!!!

My boyfriend and I ended our Nashville trip with dinner at The Rutledge, and it couldn't have been a better choice. The food was outstanding, but what truly made the experience memorable was our incredible waiter, Steve. From the moment we arrived, he greeted us with a firm handshake, introduced himself, and asked for our names, which immediately made the interaction feel personal and genuine. Throughout the meal, Steve was attentive, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable...

I went for my birthday and I ended up getting a free desert that said “happy anniversary” lol I told him he put the wrong topper and he didn't even go get the birthday one so I was pretty upset about that and the broccolini was undercooked but overall it was okay.
