“Very nice vibes, I had a reservation and was taken right to my table upon arrival! Maxx was my waiter and was attentive, conversational, and very knowledgeable of the menu. The menu was really good! I ordered the crudite, which was the tastiest plate of vegetables I’ve had, and the ballotine chicken. It was so good and had no room for anything else!“

“I have brought family and friends to sixty vines a few times and really enjoy their atmosphere, food, and service! Each time I have been has been 10/10. Parking down on 5th broad and going up to the top is so quick and easy as well. The food is fresh, wine is delicious, and the atmosphere is a fun boho vibe. I have had the pleasure of having Johnathan as our server the last few times and he is so personable , fun, kind, and one of the best on broadway!! One of my favorite spots In Nashville 🍷“

“Hands down the best all around dinner experience in Nashville. Presentation was off the charts! This was our first time visiting, they had a “Christmas Eve” menu which looked delicious but we came with our hearts set on the steak; no questions asked the kitchen was happy to adjust, we received the best steak we have tasted yet! The staff was beyond wonderful, the atmosphere was perfect. Love love loved Yolan; this will be a must have every time we visit Nashville! Thank you Yolan for the perfect Christmas Eve experience!“

“This is my go-to spot when I’m on C concourse. I adore everyone who's ever been behind the bar, but Tsigereda this morning is a special delight! The breakfast tacos are just amazing (chorizo is my fave) and they are affordable as well…the perfect amount of food for me without feeling overstuffed or wasteful. Excellent Zing Zang Bloody Marys as well! You won’t regret stopping in if you need to kill some time and want to eat well.“

“Boqueria is hands down my favorite restaurant ever! I’ve been coming here ever since I moved to Nashville six years ago, and it has never disappointed. From the moment you walk in, the ambiance makes you feel like you’re somewhere in Spain. It’s the perfect spot for date nights, girls’ nights, birthdays, or just treating yourself.

The tapas are the best part because everything is made to share, so you get to try a little bit of everything instead of committing to one dish. Every plate is packed with flavor, and I’ve honestly never had a bad meal here. The prices are also surprisingly reasonable for the quality and the amount of food you get.

On top of that, the service is always warm, attentive, and welcoming, which is one of the biggest reasons I keep coming back. Boqueria has become one of my favorite traditions since moving here, and I recommend it to everyone. If you’re looking for amazing food, a fun atmosphere, and a place you’ll want to return to again and again, this is it!“

“Super cute atmosphere and yummy food!“

“Love this hidden gem. The wait staff is always friendly and can make good food recommendations. I love the location in general and the patio is kept cool even during the hot summer. I rated the food 4 ultimately because the bruschetta was just okay. The break was just toasted sandwich bread, which was just disappointing for being one of their staple items.“

“Good vibes. Amazing staff. And the food… good grief. I haven’t had tapas so good since I was in Spain. Everything was absolutely amazing and the olive oil cake was out of this world.“

“I have an amazing experience at Cheba Hut! Jenna is absolutely fantastic—friendly, attentive, and made the event so enjoyable. The food is always incredible too; everything is fresh, flavorful, and served just right. From the first bite to the last, it is clear that they really care about quality and customer experience. Jenna and the team truly made this a five-star place—I can’t wait to come back every week. 😍“

“My fiancé and I are from Athens, AL and we love stopping by the Catio every time we visit Nashville. It’s always a nice start to our trip. Very friendly staff and very adorable kitties ❤️“

“From the moment we walked into the restaurant and were warmly greeted by the host staff, we knew we were in for something special. The dining room struck a perfect balance between comfort and elegance, creating a truly inviting atmosphere.

Our server, Sky, elevated the entire experience. She was patient, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable, guiding us through the menu with thoughtful recommendations that did not disappoint. She also went above and beyond with small touches—like keeping our bread plates refreshed—which made us feel genuinely cared for.

The appetizer, especially the prosciutto and delice, was outstanding. Our cocktails were equally impressive: the sage and gin was crisp and refreshing, the Bellini delightfully sweet, and the espresso martini rich and indulgent.

As for the entrees, everything was executed beautifully. The shaved steak was tender and full of flavor, the eggs Benedict perfectly cooked, and the American breakfast plate was generous and satisfying.

Between the exceptional food, attentive service, and beautiful ambiance, the entire experience was unforgettable. If you’re visiting Nashville, I highly recommend this restaurant. And if you have the chance, ask for Sky—she truly made our visit feel special. A solid 10/10.“

“The staff was amazing and the music was🔥“

“Amazing food!!!! The meatballs & pasta are absolutely delicious!!! The pasties are perfect!“

“This is a great place for a quick meal.“

“We definitely enjoyed our stay! The roof top bar was amazing. I had the best experience with Tyson up there. He was so kind and knowledgeable.“

“Ever since Martha’s opened, it’s been a staple in the East Nashville cocktail scene. The atmosphere is great- an easy going, unpretentious, neighborhood bar with a pool table and plenty of space for everyone — whether you post up at the bar or grab a booth with a large group of friends. Alex and his staff are knowledgeable, friendly and continually update the menu — plus they have pop up food vendors which is not to be missed. I’ve been here on quieter nights and I’ve also seen the place completely packed (Halloween and Christmas-time). The staff has been GREAT in all aspects. Always looking forward to my next visit (especially when the Phil Collins playlist comes on).“

“I came here tonight for a friend’s birthday and the hospitality, food, and vibes were a 10/10!! Staff were so friendly and eager to make sure my friend had an amazing experience. It felt like one big party with delicious food and vibes. At the end we had an issue with the check and they went above and beyond to fix it for us. Please go if you’re celebrating anything at all, I had a TIME“

“I’m not usually much of a wine drinker, but my visit to pont neuf bar completely changed the way I think about wine. Taylor, the owner, went above and beyond to help me explore different wines that suited my taste with no pressure, no pretentiousness, just genuine enthusiasm and care.

What really stood out was how comfortable and welcoming the atmosphere was. Taylor created a space where I felt free to share my honest thoughts and actually learn something new in the process. It’s rare to find that kind of passion and hospitality in one place.

Whether you’re a wine lover or someone who’s just curious to learn more, I can’t recommend this spot enough. Definitely worth a visit!“

“Food was top notch!! Server was great but possibly understaffed resulting in long wait times. Surprised at the guests attire, majority of guests were very casual. When entering no one was upfront for a few minutes, and we were asked if we were here for something special when I had already made reservations celebrating a wedding Anniversary. The host has quickly grabbed a happy anniversary sign and put it on the table. Bathrooms definitely needed attention as all three women’s restrooms were out of toilet paper and after reporting this to the manager, it was still unresolved. All in all the food was delicious, I just expected more out of the atmosphere compared to other locations I have visited“

“Cam was an awesome bartender and took great care of us, she even gave us recommendations of what to do in East Nashville,“

“We came in for some dinner on a Tuesday evening and ended up staying for a couple of glasses of wine at the bar. We were a bit unsure at first because the atmosphere was a bit low since it was a Wednesday, but the music and staff were great. We were able to taste any of the wines on tap and we were served by Alice and she was fantastic :) We could browse the wine shop too with no time pressure. I would definitely recommend for a casual evening.“

“I decided to walk here from my hotel nearby and I was SO happy I did! I was greeted with a sweet manager of Valet welcoming me , then upon walking in it was such a charming atmosphere.

I was late for my lunch reservations in the restaurant but they were sweet and said I could still order food at the bar Mimi’s (such a great cozy bar). The real highlight** was Jlew, the beautiful sweet Bartender that greeted me with fresh energy and offering her favs from the brunch menu, while making me a great Latte I requested. She also makes fresh lemon / strawberry/ cucumber infused water daily so it a whole vibe . Thank you Jlew for your hospitality and conversation, it really made my outing better. She was so genuine and the hotel is lucky to have her ! I work in hospitality so I’m especially picky with noticing this kind of stuff.

The food (the eggs/ potatoes / bacon bfast) was sooo delish, cooked to perfection & I was impressed at the seasoning and flavor lol. Anyways, I’ll be back !!!!!! Thank you.“

“Solid night at Frankies — the kind of place that earns a return visit before you’ve even finished dinner.

Started with the pizza bianca with whipped ricotta and local honey — simple, well-executed, great opener. Followed that up with a mortadella and pecorino plate and a Caesar salad, both on point — the Caesar in particular was the best I’ve had. For the main, the cavatelli with hot sausage and browned sage butter was the standout — perfectly cooked, rich, and packed with flavor.

The wine list is exceptional. Our bartender Talon steered us in exactly the right direction, and his recommendation paired perfectly with the meal. For dessert, the tiramisu was classic and spot-on. Talon then surprised us with a slice of chocolate tart, fresh whipped cream, and a candle for my birthday — a genuinely thoughtful touch. That kind of warm, attentive service is rare.

If you want big-box chain Italian, head to West End. If you want chef-driven, rustic Italian done right, make Frankies a priority. We’ll be back.💯🇮🇹“
