    Our group had a great meal at Boqueria before going to a concert at The Ryman. We ordered a number of tapas and all were excellent. Our favorite was the short rib stuffed peppers. Our cocktails and dessert churros were also excellent. Our server, Po, was fun and provided excellent service. Highly recommend.

    Skip lower Broadway and get yourself to Boqueria! Fantastic Spanish food! Had the Jamon iberico aged ham, octopus, patatas bravas with garlic aioli…all fantastic! Followed with seafood paella…absolute heaven! Best meal we have had in a long time!

    Rare poor experience. Food took very long and some things never even arrived by the time we were ready to leave. The server took them off the check, but it was disappointing not to ever get the things you ordered and for us to have to ask about it rather than the server noticing. We were told that the bartender was "backed up" so we might as well not even order another drink because it probably wouldn't arrive. Crazy.

    I came here to the Nashville boqueria because I go to all the ones from nyc. Unfortunately they didn’t live up to the service that nyc provides. The drinks took forever and by the time it got to our table the ice melted the drink and tasted water down. I requested sparkling water and they brought me regular tap water. When I requested that I asked for sparkling that took a long time too. Long enough that I didn’t want the sparkling water anymore the food came out before the drinks and the quality of the food wasn’t up to par with what boqueria gives. The did remove the drinks and comped them.

    Well, I was hoping for more. I am aware that much of Nashville's restaurant scene is starting to mimic NYC and LA pricing, but... well, I just expected a bit more "Nashville" influence related to portion. I love tapas, so I am accustom to the small plate idea. The pricing just didn't line up with the food delivered. I was surprised when the Mini Hamburguesa was $9 and that was for one mini. And they are mini for sure. The Crispy Potatoes were ok but at least half of them were cut so slender that the cooking process left them more like a potato chip. The restaurant was not very busy for being next to Broadway on a Sunday early evening. So, it seemed odd that with two hostess, neither could find my reservation or knew where they had seated my friend who arrived before me. Luckily I found him. And then, the waiter was very nice, but perhaps he was the only waiter as he was quite scarce during our visit. All in all, just left me wanting more.

    The food was very delicious--I could eat everything on the charcuterie board for my entire meal. The bacon wrapped dates, the street corn, the steak, the pork...i mean literally everything was so tasty and savory. The ambience and decor were very cool. While it was full with customers it wasn't crazy loud--we could still have a conversation with our friends without straining our ears or having to yell. Would definitely go back again!

    We have eaten at several Boqueria locations including this one a few times. This was a bad night for the kitchen. Everything was a little off. Bread for the Shrimp wad freezer burned (or something), the half chicken took forever and was room temperature when it arrived. Meatballs were ordered at the beginning and came out last. Server was great and was the only thing stopping us from leaving. We are big fans of Boqueria and will visit again. We will be in Boston in October and hope that location is a better experience.

Everything that came out was hot and delicious. The paella and croquetas were table favorites. We will definitely be back!

    Took a while to get service even though the restaurant wasn’t all that busy. Some food came out a little cold and got told they were out of multiple items even though it was only 4:45 pm. But, once we finally got a server he was good!

    We were disappointed when we made the reservation, and no availability until 8pm. We booked the 8pm reservation, and when we arrived the place was empty. The staff advised us that it was very slow all evening, and surprised we were not able to make a dinning reservation sooner. Dinning at 8pm in the empty restaurant did not create a good dinning experience overall.

    Food was fantastic as usual and out very quickly on a busy Saturday night. The music was way too loud and the server spoke way too quietly, so not the best experience ever. Was also incredibly dim (had to use phone flashlight to read menu), but only in half the restaurant, which was...odd. Will go again, but not on a weekend night.

    The food was either undercooked on some dishes or overly fried on other dishes. And everything lacked flavor - it was all bland. We were surprised because the prior reviews were good, but our experience was not good.

    It was ok. When we got there, they did not give us enough menus or any cutlery. We had to find both for ourselves. The food was good, a few execution errors. There are so many great restaurants in Nashville, it just was not up to that expectation. And the bathrooms were dirty!
