    First time brunching at The Mockingbird, and it was amazing! Fantastic service and standout dishes. Those Buns Dough—brioche cinnamon rolls with cream cheese frosting—were the perfect start. Sweet, indulgent, and unforgettable. The Rise and Shine (pork belly fried rice with a fried egg) was packed with flavor, and the Tots Alot (tater tots topped with pork sausage gravy) was equally impressive. Amazing food and service—can’t wait to come back!

    Our dinner at Catbird Seat was both a highlight of our trip to Nashville and an absolute top ten meal of all time. The food was outstanding. Every bite was a little bit of culinary heaven on earth. The beverage pairings were both adventurous and spot on. And, above all else, the service was exemplary; from the moment we were greeted and escorted to our seats, until we exited. An absolutely lovely experience that exceeded all expectations! A big ‘Thank you!’ to Tiffani, Andy, Sara, Ash, and the entire staff for a very memorable experience from start to finish. We cannot wait for the opportunity to return!

    Bastion is an almost perfect dining experience that starts with their caring and knowledgeable staff. Its dark, hip and casual decor and concept menu pairs nostalgia with modern cuisine and plating. We loved the progression of tastes, the smart wine service, and the personal delivery of each dish by the chefs.For me the array of desserts fell short as they seemed to get lost in their ideas and missed on satisfying tastes. You’ll find lots of interesting ingredients paired in delicious ways with their menu. We arrived way too early for our reserved table and enjoyed perfect and very personalized cocktails made by the personable bar master. She made an hour go by so pleasantly. The unique part of Bastion is the record player playlist that is part of their nostalgia and slow down vibe. We lucked out with a full play of one of our favorite Arcade Fire albums. We’ll be back and would recommend this place to friends.

    Had a great New Year’s Day brunch at Common Ground yesterday. I’ve been both locations a handful of times and always love the staff, drinks and bites. This time I tried the nonalcoholic espresso martini and it was amazing! I highly recommend Common Ground!
