Absolutely amazing brunch spot! The oysters were very fresh. The burger was a nice classic. And the Turkish eggs are a must. The Turkish eggs had a little kick, but don’t let that scare you. The dish is crafted very well. I would definitely...Read More

Lovely elevated dining experience just outside downtown Nashville in Germantown. We lucked out with our server. He's been there since the restaurant's inception.

It fills up quick during busy hours and is tight if you do find a spot. There is also street parking, but that can also be busy. Arrive early to plan for parking.

Always one of my favorite dinners in Nashville. Every dish is so fresh and interesting - you can’t go wrong. Also, the bar program here is just so good. The wine list is great and the cocktails are so inventive without trying too hard.

These were some of the nicest oysters I've ever tried. Flavorful and distinct, and perfect with just a touch of mignonette. The grouper was seared to perfection and the sauce on potatoes was delightful. I will definitely be back the next time I'm in Nashville!

The food was SPECTACULAR! We were blown away by every single dish. The green salad was so amazing that we begged for the dressing recipe….but then again, everything was that good! Great atmosphere, great service, we loved everything about this place.
