The food & ambiance are top tier! Highly recommend happy hour & late night dinner. Can't wait to try out brunch someday soon!

incredible experience made even better by manager conrad and alexis. top tier, will be back!

Came here twice! Mostly to watch the World Cup matches and was blessed with excellent food and service! First time I came for brunch. Went with the bottomless mimosas with a juice mix of pineapple, orange juice and I think cranberry. To eat, I had the oysters -- I'm in my oysters era AB's this was so worth it! Delicious. Tiny but delicious. I also had the fried chicken sandwich which a side of Caesar salad. Both delicious! The second I came was a weekday: I had more oysters, the horseradish was a very lovely touch. I had the tuna rice cakes which were just okay. And finally the steak frites. The smallest size of steak I've ever had (4oz) because the upgrade to 6oz was absurd. The side salad was meh, fries were good, the bread was delicious. To drink I tried the lychee cocktail and another one I can't remember. The best part of this place is the service. Absolutely phenomenal. Second time we had Jordan as our server and he was exceptional!! He needs to run the place! Ambiance was nice. Parking validation provided. Ask for parking directions, not intuitive Thank you for making my short trip in Nashville worth visiting here TWICE! read more

Girls' happy hour at Earl's Kitchen was such a fun time! We ordered a little bit of everything to share, which is my favorite way to dine. We started with the Sticky Korean Ribs, Charred Corn & Avocado Dip, a dozen East Coast oysters, two orders of Crispy Rice Sushi (ahi tuna and salmon), Steak Frites, and the Szechuan Shrimp & Pork Dumplings. The East Coast oysters were incredibly fresh with the perfect salinity--definitely my favorite dish of the night! The Charred Corn & Avocado Dip is a great summer appetizer that's fresh, flavorful, and perfect for sharing. The Szechuan Shrimp & Pork Dumplings were another standout; the chili crunch black vinegar added so much flavor. The Steak Frites were excellent, with tender steak and their signature truffle fries that never disappoint. The Sticky Korean Ribs were tender with a nice barbecue flavor, but they weren't my personal favorite. The Crispy Rice Sushi topped with ahi tuna was delicious, but the salmon version wasn't quite for me--the rice was a bit too crispy. The drinks were just as impressive! The Guava Vodka Crush is refreshing and screams summer. We also enjoyed the White Sangria, a delicious non-alcoholic mule, an Old Fashioned, and the Premier 42 Margarita. Everyone loved their cocktails. Since we were celebrating my friend's birthday, and our server surprised her with a molten lava cake, complete with a candle, making the celebration even more special and also a crème brûlée cheesecake, which was absolutely delicious! Service was wonderful, the ambiance was lively yet relaxed, and it made for the perfect girls' happy hour. Looking forward to coming back to try the dinner menu! read more

4.5 STARS!! Earls is a great new addition to the Nashville Yards area! We'd heard great things and decided to stop by for happy hour to check it out for ourselves. The atmosphere is really nice--definitely more upscale than casual, but still comfortable and inviting. The music was at the perfect volume, and we chose to sit in the lounge, which had a more relaxed vibe. We did end up waiting a little while before anyone came over to our table, but the managers noticed right away and made sure we were taken care of. They turned the experience around quickly, and our server even surprised us with mini espresso martinis, which were absolutely delicious. The happy hour menu is EXTENSIVE, with plenty of great options. We ordered the charred corn and avocado dip, crispy rice with spicy ahi tuna, and the Szechuan shrimp and pork dumplings. The dumplings were hands down the star of the meal--a must-order! The charred corn and avocado dip were also really good, especially with the flavorful sauce and chili seasoning. The crispy rice was tasty too, although I personally wish the tuna had a little more heat. Our server, Ron, was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and gave us some great recommendations for when we come back for dinner. Even though he was clearly busy (which we totally understood!), he was friendly, attentive, and made us feel well taken care of. Overall, despite the slow start, the service recovery was excellent, the food and drinks were impressive, and we left excited to come back and try more of the menu. Earls is definitely worth checking out, especially for happy hour! read more

Welp! It's my 2nd visit and this solidified my rating. Stopped in for a quick HH as I did on my last visit with my brother whom they know by name. This was exactly what I like to see in a HH. Various food and beverage options. They have HH daily 3-6 and again 9- close. Very lively. First: Our bartender was Kaleb. He was very friendly and attentive. Was happy to answer any questions about the menu. I had a peach Bellini Margarita. It was very tasty. I wanted a sangria but they didn't have any. The Colada Crush was also good. For light bites: Charred Corn and Avo Dip, Birria Tacos, and Truffle Fries. Everything was good. The truffle fries were the star of the show for me. I am a truffle fry connoisseur. if it's on the menu w/ aioli, I'm ordering. Earl's has hands down surpassed my local favorite spot. (It shall remain nameless) I've never had a aioli that was so tasty. Will be back soon. read more

Tried this place for brunch while I was in town, and I absolutely loved it! Our server was really funny and was great at checking on us without being over the top, and the place itself has such a cute vibe to it! I ordered the sparkling peach mojito, which was really refreshing! It was the perfect start to brunch, and it became a fan favorite at my table. For food, I ordered the chilaquiles. I truly wish they added more chips to add more crunch to the dish since it's primarily made with tortilla chips, but I still really enjoyed it with the delicious twist of the crispy potato pave at the bottom of the dish. Super filling as a result! Would love to try this place again whenever I'm back in town! read more

Wow, Earls was an experience! The beautiful space has a large dining room and bars with an upscale feel throughout. Service was excellent; I was with a big group and our server handled our many annoying questions/requests with aplomb. Super friendly, patient, and prompt throughout our meal. The food was delicious. We shared a bunch of appetizers, and I enjoyed the dumplings and the random bites of sushi that appeared on my plate. The dumpling had a chewy outside and a juicy filling, really well prepared. My main was a bibimbap bowl, nothing too fancy but it was well executed. Lots of fresh ingredients, and a sauce that added a little bit of flavor, though I would have liked more spice to the dish. Still delicious and hearty, a very filling entree. The desserts were fantastic; the key lime pie wasn't a classic Joe's slice, but still packed a punch in terms of flavor. And I think the cheesecake was my favorite; again not a "classic" style but I like that they were adventurous with a bit of caramelization on the top layer. Very decadent, don't expect an airy cake here. Great experience overall! read more

Earls opened in 2026 in the Nashville Yards development and presents an excellent menu of modern American food. Earls is part of a significant chain, having over 70 locations across the US and Canada. The steak and eggs for breakfast is phenomenal, where the highlight is actually not the steak or the eggs, but the thinly sliced cubes of potatoes layered and fried. A cool twist on classic breakfast potatoes that isn't just a gimmick, but actually phenomenal. Then there is the sushi selection which is equally wonderful. When it comes to ambiance, it's very pleasant inside and the highlight is arguably the patio. It's one of the very few patios that aren't facing a street, so there is a cozy and very pleasant vibe to it. On weekends, it gets quite busy and fun, so it's a great date spot. The staff are excellent and attentive. As a whole, Earls is trying to make a name for itself in the city and as of now, it's doing a remarkable job at it. read more

My new fave happy hour spot I am a happy hour fiend. I work a job with a lot of flexibility, so I find myself a frequenter of happy hours. There is nary a happy hour I have not tried in this city. This one is top notch. Vibe here is so gorg. I feel like a fancy broad when I'm here, which is not real but a fun persona I play pretend with. Everyone that works here is really hot- to the point that I think they just attend model casting calls and hire from there. Special shout out to Donté for his amazing service and stellar recommendation on desserts, and Maddy (potentially madison or close I am so sorry I cannot remember) for looking like a more radiant kiernan shipka and being so attentive when my table was being difficult. Honestly I've only eaten the happy hour menu here. I'm sure everything else is divine, but I'm bougie on a budget. The crispy rice tuna is so dang good and truly the best crispy rice deal in this city. I'm obsessed with the crème brûlée cheesecake, I actually had a dream about it the other night. The drinks are so yummo and well priced during happy hour. I once accidentally got very lit here because they taste so lovely and go down so easy. I had to walk home after that one. read more

Well this place took me by happy surprise. I did not expect to fall head over heels but i totally did. In just the first few weeks i tried brunch, lunch, cocktail and dinners and I have been mighty impressed every time. They got this down, all the way from the kind (!) hostesses to the last lick of that desert you did not know you wanted - you will be happy! They have a normal size menu but still manages to find the perfect dish for "everyone". I have visited with various groups and every time i have felt like this was the best restaurant pick I could have done. The ambiance is beautiful without feeling stuffy. The staff is great at helping you pick a new favorite or just be there for when you like to order another cocktail, I bet you will! read more

Took wifey out for an early Mother's Day dinner at Earls Kitchen + Bar since she was gonna be busy Sunday with her outing with the kids. Made reservations the week before just in case Saturday night got packed. Pulled up to valet like a boss and from what I understood, if you dine there they validate parking, so that was already a win lol. Hostess greeted us right away, gave my name, and we were seated in less than 10 mins. While waiting I scanned the QR code for parking and handled that real quick. Smooth process. The vibe inside was nice. Good music, cool atmosphere, and everybody looked like they were having a good time. Our server Jeremy from Seattle was on point. Dude broke down the menu, gave recommendations, and actually made the experience fun instead of sounding robotic or pushy. Gave us time to look over the menu cause errrthang looked soooo good. Started with the Earls Old Fashioned. I'm more of a whiskey guy, but that bourbon drink was legit with the bitters. For apps we shared the Little Gem Caesar salad. Flavor was good but whoever tossed it was acting like the dressing was liquid gold lol. Still good though. Also had a half dozen raw oysters with the mignonette. Little tiny, briny, little sweet, but fresh and hit the spot. Not sure what they were wasn't specified on the menu. They weren't blue points but I could be wrong. Seems like TN has a lot of blue points shipped or raised somewhere in the region. Hard enough finding good fresh oysters in Tennessee without playing seafood roulette. Even though that seafood tower I was eyeballing looked amazing lol. Wifey got the Cajun Blackened Steak with mash and broccolini. She gave me a bite and whewww that steak was smackin! The mash with the crispy julienne potatoes made the plate look pretty lol. Who doesn't like crispy fried stuff yah feel me. Even the broccolini had great flavor and still had a crisp to it. Def would order a side of that next time. I got the 6oz steak + sushi combo with ponzu sauce and paired it with the crispy rice ahi tuna. Man...that crispy rice was SOOO good I could eat more of that! Def would recommend the crispy rice with the ahi tuna. Steak came out a little more blue than medium rare, but I'd rather have it under than over. I still cleaned the plate no doubt lol. Overall dinner was great. Staff was friendly and on point the whole time. Definitely recommend making reservations so you're not standing around hungry staring at people's plates. I'd for sure come back for dinner and wanna try their brunch too. Brunch menu looked really good and worth coming back for. Great spot if you want a fine dining feel with a casual vibe. No dress code stress either. Could be a bit pricy on what you order. But since it was a special dinner why not go all out yadadaimean. People were in gym clothes, tank tops and shorts so I was glad I didn't show up too dressy. So don't over think the attire just go with whatever you're comfortable in. No judgment zone naw mean : ) read more

The restaurant has an amazing vibe and is very trendy, reminding you of Vanderpump Rules. The Peach Bellini Margarita stole the show; it was delicious and refreshing. The food on the happy hour menu was very affordable. The staff was friendly, nice, and knowledgeable. I sat at the bar, and the only drawback is that when they get busy, it's very hard to get the server's attention, but that's understandable. I will definitely go back on my next trip, especially for the Peach Bellini. read more

Thank you to the hostess and our great server Barrett for confirming that . Slow but surely it started filling it up it was great vibe music turned into feel club vibe if you're looking for a quiet chill place maybe not thin choice on a Friday evening .

Dustin was outstanding. Friendly, attentive, knew the menu front to back, and somehow appeared at the table every time we needed something without actually hovering. The entire staff was equally attentive and, for reasons I can't explain, looked like they were recruited from a modeling agency. The steak and sushi weren't the best I've ever had, but Dustin's service was so good that I found myself caring a lot less about that than I normally would. Great service can cover a multitude of sins, and Dustin put in a Hall of Fame performance. We'd come back just for the service alone. read more

Service started off great but tapered off once the food arrived. A follow-up check-in would have made a big difference. The tacos were flavorful with a nice kick of spice, though I would have appreciated a bit more consumé sauce on the side. The margarita was superb. The atmosphere is upscale and inviting, but the music volume was a bit loud. It was difficult to hear the bartender across the bar even as she was thoughtfully sharing her recommendations on menu items. Overall a solid experience with a few tweaks needed. read more

Went to Earls not knowing it's only been opened for 2 days. The vibe, cocktails and service was amazing! They have a late night happy hour, crispy rice was great, fish taco was good. The pork chop was a bit over cooked and salty. The truffle tortellini and shrimp was alright. Once again the drinks were really good and the best part is they have a full menu till 2am. I'd definitely be back for a late night bite. read more

This place had so much hype these past couple months I had to try it out! Our waiter was super kind & let us know their specialities are steaks, sushi & margs! We were hoping to enjoy happy hour, but it's available at bar seating only so just be cautious! Something else I wanted to point out was that the waiter asked if we'd like, sparkling, still or tap water. We said still not think there would be a charge... it was $9 for water! And when I looked it up it was only like $3 for that bottle at target so a bit of an upcharge. I do think the food was quite tasty and a great variety but it's definitely quite overpriced. I probably wouldn't come back unless I went for only happy hour drinks! read more

I have been here way too many times for it to be so new, and im going to keep going!! Earls is by far the best thing at Nashville Yards. The two a day happy hour takes the cake.

Whether you are on the patio, the bar, or main dining, its beautiful. You can tell they prioritized training for their crew! Love earls and will continue going back! The oysters are magnificent, steak frittes stellar, crispy tuna or sushi rice hits every time. The drink? Fire! Go!! read more

This was a great experience for my b-day, our server Ben was knowledgeable and extremely nice. If you want a more livelier ambiance sit in the lounge area. The service was honestly top tier, we were also seated rather quickly. We started off with cocktails, the peach Bellini margarita as well as the spicy mezcal also both were delicious. The Korean ribs were crispy and tender. The Caesar with grilled chicken was fresh and the steak frites were super flavorful. We ended with a crème brûlée cheesecake. I'm definitely going to be a repeat customer. read more

Food was very good. Menu was varied. We had a reservation and were seated immediately. Waitstaff has some kinks to work out with delivery of orders (staff running drinks to table unaware of what the drink is and which seat ordered it). Appetizers were very tasty. Pork and shrimo dumplings, crispy chicken skewers with pickles, chips and guac . Entree menu had a lot of options. My fellow diners raved about the sea bass. I had the steak and tortellini which was very good. read more

Very lively at 9pm and just happened to stumble on a late night happy hour (everyday) that starts at 9pm. Big restaurant with a large bar area - which is first come first serve for walkins. Restaurant is going through the hiccups of new staff / just opening but anticipate that this place will be packed in a few months. (E.x. No silverware, ran out of large ice cubes so told us that there were no Old Fashions which were in disbelief so we asked bar server to ask the manager who gave us the options of "up" or over - on ice chips (up worked for us & it was made well!) While HH food is smaller, it was a bargain and well prepared. Portion was aligned with the price. read more

Run to Earls immediately and ask for Taylor as your server! She was simply amazing, patient and quite knowledgeable of the menu! It made the experience soo much better! From starting with the Caesar, Dumplings and sticky ribs my dining experience was off to an amazing start. The salad was made to perfection and the ribs were quite tender! I had the steak tortellini with my steak on the side in ponzu sauce and it was the perfect choice. The steak and sushi option was the perfect combo to have on the menu. The spicy crab was made to perfection. The margarita is a standout alone! It's mixed perfectly and it wasn't too spicy! If you like sweet cocktails then the lychee martini is the perfect choice. And to end the night you must try the cheesecake it's Rich and full of so much flavor! The ambiance is sexy and perfect for date night with bae or a girlfriend's dinner to laugh and catch up! Parking is a bit tricky but they validate parking in the east lot. I Ubered but do what's best for you and your group! Try this place for yourself! read more

Blacken chicken was over cooked and super dry. Service was great. Nice space, but very loud music.

We had a party of eight and the service was excellent as well as the food. We look forward to coming back again.

We celebrated Father's Day brunch here. We were eager to try out some of the new restaurants in Nashville Yards and this one caught our eye with positive reviews. Our server Justin was great - he struck a good balance of chatting with us but not lingering around for too long either. We arrived before noon so we were able to take advantage of the brunch happy hour. I had the steak & eggs and my wide had the avocado benedict - both were delicious. We particularly enjoyed the potato pavé that both dishes came with. We'd definitely go back for brunch again or dinner as well. read more

Fortunate to visit Earl's soft opening tonight and WOW!!! is all I can say. I can see why this place will be in our regular rotation of Nashville eats. Before we even began our meal, Gus came by to chat and brag on his establishment. So cool to see how excited he was to show off all their hard work preparing for this week. From the moment we came in, you could see the dedication and work ethic of everyone from the hosting station, to the servers and even the assistants to the tables. Can't say enough about Jordan our server. The way he described the specific fried tofu appetizer made everyone want to try it and he was one hundred perfect correct. Well worth it to try something new, for sure! All in all, our table got to taste the hamburger, shrimp/scallop pesto pasta, cobb salad, rigatoni, crispy chicken tenders and steak frites. Nice little sampling of some of their popular entrees. Sticky toffee pudding and Key Lime tart rounded out the evening. As we exited the building, one of the restaurant executives took our picture as we chatted about how we felt about our meal. With all the choices in Nashville, and there are millions, we've found somewhere you can bring your crew and relax over good food and good vibes. Note: - excellent patio area seating with great people watching in the Nashville Yards area - near the Pinnacle if you're going to a concert - plenty of parking nearby which is not usual for downtown Nash - you feel like you are in the center of everything which is a nice place to be read more

Made reservations at Earls because of its close proximity to The Pinnacle for a pre-show dinner... and wow, what a first impression. It's their opening week, and they clearly brought in the best of the best to showcase an elevated level of service. Huge shoutout to Lex, who expertly guided us through both the food and drink menu, and to Sam, who made sure we were taken care of every step of the way. Lex did not steer us wrong. We started with the Sticky Korean Ribs and the Charred Corn + Avocado Dip, both incredible. For our main, we went with the Black Truffle Butter Steak... melt-in-your-mouth tender with rich, savory flavor. And the Don Julio Reserva Margarita? Easily one of the best margaritas I've had. Smooth, balanced, and the perfect pairing. I'll absolutely be back. As great as this first experience was, I'm already looking forward to working my way through more of the menu. read more
