This is a must go-to-place! If you want to avoid the craziness of Broadway, but still have a little noise and excitement, go here. The Thompson Hotel is so cool, the restaurant is amazing, and the food (I'm sure) will never disappoint.

We came to enjoy a birthday/anniversary dinner and did just that! Everything was Amazing! Our waitress was extremely knowledgeable about everything on the menu and had great recommendations! Days later, we are still raving about the seafood tower and almond crusted grouper! If you want to end your night with some fun.. I recommend the “chambong”.. you’ll thank me later!

Very nice place to grab some appetizers and drinks. The oysters were very fresh and tasty. And the shrimp toast is a must. I heard tale that it was almost removed from the menu, just for seasonal turnover, only to spark major protest. Justified. We will be back when we are Nashville again.

Great food and service. We sat outside and it was very enjoyable. Started off with the shrimp toast appetizer and ceviche which was delicious. For dinner had the scallops and shrimp fried rice which was also delicious. Wrapped up with the orange crush for dessert which was very tasty. Great service. We are locals and will be back.

An excellent restaurant. The service was attentive and friendly; not fast as the server had several tables. However, we were not in a hurry and enjoyed the leisurely pace of the dinner after a long day and rush hour into the Gulch. The seafood is the main attraction here and was superb. The almond-crusted grouper was cooked to perfection and the almonds and sauce on top had a unique flavor. I took my time to savor that dish and didn't want it to end. My wife had the Arctic Char and it was excellent. Our vegtable appetizer with yogurt was fresh. The plating and presentation for each dish was excellent. Happy hour wine and app specials are a great value. If I were to change anything, I'd turn down the music and have a dining room that attenuates noise better. White table clothes would also be another nice addition. I supposed I'm getting old and I've come to appreciate the French preference for dining in quieter environments. I'd certainly go back for the food and the service.
