- KKateNashville •1 review5.0Dined on Oct 24, 2026Mellotone is one of my favorite spots! It is seriously an underrated spot and is so flexible! Whether you want a sit down dining experience (day or night—their brunch and dinner menus are both so good!), want to hang out upstairs as a group with some drinks, or enjoy the live music hideaway that is Undertone, this spot has got you covered. I was even pleasantly surprised that they have kids menus here, which worked perfectly as I was dining with my young niece.More infoMellotone Beer Project$$$$• Contemporary American• Over the Rhine•4.5
