Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
JBJ's Nashville offers an exciting atmosphere with "amazing food" and "incredible entertainers." The venue's unique Bon Jovi memorabilia adds to the charm, and the rooftop views are spectacular. While service can be inconsistent, standout items like the ribs, seafood risotto, and whiskey sours make it worth the visit. Ideal for music lovers.

    Hard to navigate upon arrival. No signs telling you which way to hostess stand and restaurant area vs the many bars on this multi level spot. When seated on V day there were tables at window overlooking the strip but hostess sat us at first table. I inquired about the other and was immediately moved. I appreciate that but why on earth wouldn’t you seat me in the better spot to begin with. Drinks were not correct. Order was taking forever. Finally a manager came out and she let us know that our order had gone to wrong table and that unfortunately it was the last of the ordered item so my wife had to reorder. Then they made the biggest mistake of all. They then brought my Filet and served me without serving my wife. I’m not going to eat in front of my wife at any meal but especially on Valentine’s. When her food arrived 7-10 minutes later my meal was of course cold. The manger didn’t charge for wife’s meal nor a couple drinks. Still spent &100. Won’t be back but can see where others in bar area might have had a decent meal and some fun.

    Had a reservation on OpenTable and they basically said they would not honor it due to a special event which is why we made the reservation to begin with Either don’t allow reservations or do allow but don’t simply say sorry, just kidding. The person we were talking to said nothing she could do and then walked away.

    This is a place you should experience. The memorabilia was fun to look at and the live bands were good. The food was surprisingly better than expected for a bar. A must have are the brussel sprouts and ribs. Tried Hampton Water and it is slightly sweet and refreshing. The reason I can’t give five stars is the service. When walking in there is a bouncer but no one telling us where to go for our reservation. We walked around looking for someone to ask or a sign saying where to go. When we finally found what floor we needed the server acted as though she just woke up. She got our order correct but it was disappointing to see the server and other employees chatting and socializing at the bar. I expected more out of the staff. Despite the service I would return to try other menu items and live music.

    We each started with a whiskey sour that was delicious. At the table our server highlighted the specials & we had the beef tartar to start. Did not need the cloud of cotton candy, but took nothing away from the incredible flavour. Fabulous taste & offered more “crostini” as the tartar was such a generous portion. The Australian ribeye was visually stunning as well as delicious melting like butter in your mouth with the slightest crust of spices. I had the seafood risotto with giant prawns, mussels, and scallops. Almost too much to handle but savoured every single bite. We also enjoyed the side of asparagus and lobster Mac and cheese. We decided on a rose as we had both beef and seafood. Again, completely satisfying. Our first time to Nashville and Harper’s certainly made our trip all the more special!
