    Our dinner took one and a half hours to get to the table once ordered. Grouper dishes and burgers were great , shrimp ettoufee was marginal. We had a sweet server who constantly apologized, the restaurant was mostly full . It was our second time we waited this long . We went at valentines and took 6 friends, we had fun but waited such a long time for food. Trying really hard to support this local restaurant, would consider if the wait time changes to get food.

    This was the worst experience I have ever had at a nashville/Brentwood restaurant, and I've lived in the area since the 90's. Food took over 2 hours to receive (after it was ordered). Meals were either completely wrong or burnt or way over salted or missing the main ingredients described on the menu. (Yes this is true).. Service was completely awful as well. We spent over $400 for dinner and I'm sick that I dropped that money for such a terrible experience! There was no silver lining in this experience, do yourself a favor and do not visit this restaurant you are much better off going to ANY other restaurant in the Brentwood area. I will never be back

    They were very behind in the kitchen. Our server tried her very best, but 3 of our orders were not correct. I hope they are able to get their kitchen times down, however I don’t believe we will be back.

    2 kids Cheeseburgers took an hour- my $34 Seafood Cobb salad had 3 small shrimp, no crab and the wrong dressing. Oh and the Lettuce on my son's cheeseburger had a separate line item charge?

    Went for oysters and presecco. They were out of both! Dishes were overpriced for serving size, especially the drinks. The food quality was better than a chain, but not worth the money.

    We had a reservation for a party of 16, and were seated in a side section of our own. There were hardly any other guests in the restaurant, and it took a half hour to get all of our drinks out and almost an hour and a half to get out food. There was no acknowledgment from staff or management of our wait times, and the food was mediocre at best. At one point my husband asked how long it would take to get a small order of raw oysters while we waited, and was told 20 minutes. I would not recommend this place and we will not be back. Overall, with a 20% automotive gratuity added for a large party, our combined bills would have been over $500. I’ve gotten better service at a fast food restaurant.

    Surprised at how much stock from domestic beer, steaks, and dessert they were out of on first seating Saturday night. Bar music/area needs to be separated since music impeded on dining conversations. Service was excellent. Food was good 7/10.

    This was my first time coming to the establishment and I was looking forward to trying the oysters. After being seated, that's when I was told they only had 3 left. I ordered the gumbo and was highly disappointed. My family is from New Orleans and we cook Cajun all the time. The restaurant's gumbo was way too dark and black. It was disappointing because I did not see shrimp or crab...only sausage. I would have also preferred the waitress to tell me about the Gumbo Bar.

    We really enjoyed our dinner! Had a private room which was wonderful. The server was very nice but he was not very attentive. I totally appreciate that he had a lot going on but once we got our food he never came back to check on us, clear plates or bring the bill - we had to track him down to get the bill. I would go back, certainly, but wanted to provide feedback on the service.

    The service was good but a little disappointed in part of the food. Scallops over priced for what served the side dish was a mix of something uneditable and only 3 scallops on plate, so greatly overpriced at $36.

    Service was fine. The restaurant was empty at lunch and smelled of old cleaning products. Our food came out cold even though we were 1 of 2 tables in there. The BLT chicken sandwich was just ok and there was no pesto on it as advertised.

    The food is always good here—Tim hires great staff and I am always glad I came. Apparently it has been longer than I realized however— the comfy quirky bar furniture and ambience has been replaced with very practical cafe tables. I deeply mourn the absence of the armchairs!

    Valentines Day Food was not that good and not as impressive as the website. I asked for one of your small booths and the waitress said they were reserved for 3 or more. I agreed with that statement, but things went south when 3 out of the 4 or 5 booths filled after we arrived were filled with 2 people each. Got to get better.

    First time trying this place and I was disappointed. Our server was not knowledgeable of the menu/drinks etc and we had to change our drink selection twice. We waited an hour for fish and chicken and he never checked on us throughout(we had to stop him as he was walking by if we needed anything) The place was nice though. It smelled good and was very clean, even the bathrooms.
