    Simple turkey sandwich on a brioche bun with brown mustard, lettuce, onions, tomato, banana peppers and cheddar cheese.
    Andy W.

    Great Deli's have a way of making what seems like a simple sandwich taste amazing! Thanks 51st Deli! It's near Vanderbilt University if you're in town and want to try.

    Cold potatoes, cold sausage, barely cooked rubbery bacon. It was terrible.

    Rubbery barely cooked bacon cold potatoes, cold sausage. It was terrible my wife had a bacon egg cheese bagel. The bagel was soggy. The bacon was rubbery and not cooked. The egg was cooked sunny side up instead of scrambled. Terrible experience. All for $36.

    I'd be willing to raise the rating on this one because I know one sandwich and one experience wouldn't define a place like this bc there are a ton of positives but the sandwich I got wasn't really what I was expecting. First off, the place is awesome. It's built like a stereotypical New York bodega/deli I used to go to all the time. And maybe that's why I have such high expectations because it had the look. I got a chopped cheese which is one of my favorites form back home but honestly it just missed the mark. Bread was a bit soggy and thin and the content inside had a Russian dressing sweet taste to it and the tomato was kind of soggy as well. It just didn't taste like a real chop cheese tbh. But the sandwich was solid. Got the chocolate cake as well which was kind of dry. Don't get the saps drink as well it's nasty haha. Their drink selection is elite though, soooo many options to choose from, I just picked soemthing new and wasn't a fan. Really like the deli and what they are doing here, I'm going to get a different sandwich next time bc their other options look promising.

    This place is lovely. I got the Cuba sandwich. Add Jalapeños and mushrooms and tomatoes. The enchilada soup and broccoli cheddar were soooo good! The staff was nice ! The food was good. The place was quick and clean. I can't believe I've never been here before. Can't wait to go back !

    I decided to give this shop another try, and this time was a little better. The staff is always friendly and the inside is great with lots of seating and snack options. However, their reuben was just okay, and once again the meat on my sandwich had some spots that were oddly tough and chewy. This spot is good in a pinch for lunch, but there are many other places in Nashville I'd choose first for a good sandwich.

    Inside this massive pouch, is a delicious club sandwich

    Mondo sandwiches. For real. Big, delicious, fresh, lots of interesting sides as well as any kind of chips you could possibly want, this would definitely be a go-to sandwich shop for me if I were a Nashvillean. I happened to be in the area staying somewhat nearby, and decided to take a walk over because heck, who doesn't love a good sandwich shop? Not to mention, the Yelp reviews were really good, and the pictures looked very impressive. Walking in, it feels like a NY style deli in there. You are confronted with a huge deli counter lined with all the different meats, salads, cold sides, and a kitchen full of people listening to good music and having a great time at work. Walking to your right to get in line, there is a cooler with what seems like never-ending options for canned and bottled drinks. There are also coffees, juices, and smoothies available at the register. Have fun picking the one you want! Keep walking into line and you'll be tempted by all the fun snacks and of course what is behind the counter. Place your order and wait for your number to be called. We got a club sandwich, an Italian, some chips, and a side of their elote street corn. Both sandwiches were huge and delicious, served on fresh bread. The elote could have used a bit more oomph, but overall, was very enjoyable... and way more than we could finish on all fronts. Would definitely come back here on my next trip!

    Turkey Avocado

    This place has so much variety and offers fresh food! I went around lunch and it was very busy, tight parking. Great customer service, fast and convenient. I got the turkey avacado which was loaded with flavor the bread was tough. I also had a mucho mango smoothie. The smoothie was difficult to drink given the small stew and large dates. However, it tasted great! I'll be back and I'll likely try something else.

    An excellent quick but high quality restaurant. Reminds me of a NYC bodega and the food is unbelievable. I am a big sandwich fan and the club sandwich as well as the Italian sub are as good as it gets.

    Wanted to get something quick, stopped here and no regrets! The breakfast menu is all day, so many choices of sandwiches, along with burgers and tacos on this menu! It covers just about anything you could want for a quick meal and the food was delicious! The staff working was very nice and very kind when asking for the order. This is a place I would go too all the time if I lived in Nashville!

My fiancee and dad got the birria tacos they did a pretty good job. I got the skirt steak i believe and it was ok. Tender but not too flavorful. Tasted more just like beef. I believe its marinated but i didnt really get hints of any spices. Again, I'm not saying it was terrible by any means. Just left something to be desired. We also ordered the wueso flameado and that was pretty good. Overall a good place to eat. Would recommend checking it out.

The fact that Savannah's was right next door made it even more fun I stopped in on Taco Tuesday around lunchtime, and it was the perfect time to visit. There was a nice crowd, but it wasn't overly busy. I even picked up a Casa Rosa T-shirt as a souvenir after settling in at the bar. The highlight of my visit was Johnny, the bartender. I told him I wanted something sweet with tequila, and he created the perfect drink. I honestly don't know what he made, but it was so good I ordered a second one! We also discovered we're both from Chicago, which made for great conversation and made the experience feel even more welcoming. Johnny recommended the tacos, and they absolutely lived up to the hype. They were fresh and flavorful. Pair those tacos with two amazing tequila drinks, live music from a fantastic band, and my total bill came to under $50. If you're looking for a great lunch spot with good food, excellent drinks, live music, and outstanding service, Casa Rosa is definitely worth a stop. And if Johnny is behind the bar, you're in great hands. I can't wait to make it back to Nashville, and hopefully one day I'll get lucky enough to visit while Miranda Lambert is there!

It made conversation almost impossible, even though we chose seats outside. Im personally not a big fan of how they call your name to come get your order instead of having a number at your table; they yell into the microphone and it's also so loud. It also takes longer than I feel it should to put orders together. More than once in the past we wanted to try this place, the line was only a few people long, but when we got up there the cashier told us orders were running about 30 minutes behind. So we left and went elsewhere. No time to sit around waiting for them to catch up. If they would turn the bloody music down, stop yelling into the microphone and just bring the food to your table, and figure out their kitchen so it doesn't take so long to put tacos together, this would be a completely different (and better) experience. The tacos were good, but not good enough to put my ears and psyche through all that nonsense again.
