Staff is incredibly kind and accommodating. We were there on Christmas Eve and a guy offered to turn the TVs onto a Christmas movie. My kinds loved it.

I’ve lived in Nashville for four years now and this was our first time at January. We will absolutely be going back. Service was incredible, everything we tried was very tasty, ambiance was so nice, and at a better price point than you will find in other nice restaurants in Nashville.

The food was literally topped here! I am from State, where seafood is made fresh daily, and the seafood on my plate was absolutely immaculate. I’ve never had such a great crabcake from a restaurant in Tennessee before. It was 99% crab and not a whole bunch of filler. Our waiter Cruz was mega friendly and knowledgeable about me and our choices as well. It was really cool seeing all the fish and the complementary photo was really, really cute.

The fondue experience was fun. The cheese was delicious. The group liked the special theme drink menu. Gracen did an excellent job serving us that evening and helped make it a great birthday.
