The food was absolutely delicious and a very good price point. Our waitress was busy but very friendly and attentive. Noise level was a bit loud and it’s crowded but overall we really enjoyed dinner and will be going back.

Honestly it didn’t seem quite the experience I had remembered from two years ago. The doughnuts weren’t as good and the cocktails were a bit boring in both presentation and taste for the price. Not bad but for the price point it fell a little short compared with other similar places around the US

This was my 2nd visit to the restaurant after we had raved about it the last time we were in Nashville. It did not disappoint. As last time, everything was exceptional from cocktails to our server, Ian. The food is consistently excellent, and the ambiance is perfect. Thank you guys for another great experience! I’ll be back next time I’m in Nashville!
