    Earls has a stellar happy hour! Great vibes inside. However, happy hour is only at the bar or patio but they are always fully packed. It's literally like the hunger games to get a seat for happy hour. I sat at the bar and people were hovering over us waiting for our seats. However, this is probably one of my favorite happy hours in Nashville now. The nitro espresso martini was good and very well balanced and it was half off for happy hour, so a really good deal. The nitro gave it that nice foam on the top. I also got a margarita and that was good. For food, we got the tuna crispy rice and I would definitely eat another two plates of that. You can choose salmon or tuna for this. The poke was fresh and tasted delicious with all the toppings and microgreens. Probably one of my favorite items here. We also shared the Korean sticky ribs and it was full of flavor and the meat fell right off the bone. Another top food item here, it was so good. I liked that they gave you wipes knowing it would get sticky. Shoutout to Paloma at the bar for amazing service. She was so friendly and great. Parking - I appreciate they validate parking for $5.

    Dumplings served piping hot and full of flavor

    This place is elite in many ways. Service is exceptional along with the menu. Oysters were delicious, large and served very cold. So many good appetizers, especially the dumplings. Drink menu is varied and the wine list is too. Lots of seating at the bar and inside but very crowded. Even on an early Saturday afternoon. Reservations are recommended. Enjoy!

    Crispy tofu

    We had a group of 5 who came in for happy hour on a Wednesday. The HH menu was excellent and I was pleasantly surprised with the food as well. We had a variety of dishes, wine and beer. The wine pours were $3 off 8oz and man, they were nice and big glasses of wine. The tofu and tacos were very flavorful and fun. Everything was hot and made well. It was packed but didn't feel like too much where the house level was overwhelming. We had a nice booth, I just wish it was a little bigger for the group we had. It was definitely doable, but a full table with all the food and drinks. Our server checked on us consistently and timely and the orders were surprisingly fast for how busy they were. 5/5!

    Overall, I had a good experience. The service was friendly and attentive throughout my visit. I ordered the shrimp and scallop pesto pasta and it was okay. My biggest disappointment was the happy hour experience. I specifically came for happy hour, but I was told it's only offered in the lounge and on the patio. Unfortunately, both of those areas were closed that day, and the bar was completely full, so I wasn't able to take advantage of it. That was frustrating since the designated happy hour areas weren't even available. It would've been nice if happy hour had been extended to the dining room under those circumstances. Overall, the service made for a pleasant visit, but I hope they reconsider how they handle happy hour when the lounge and patio are unavailable.

    Tuna rice cakes, just okay
    Vanessa D.

    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!

    Cajun Filet
    Jessica L.

    Hot take... Earls is just fine. I think the vibe and energy of the restaurant is better than the food. Sadly they ran out of the steak and sushi which is what I was most excited for. I orders the Cajun filet instead at medium rare and it was cooked medium. I feel at ~$60 a steak I should have my steak cooked the way I like. The flavor was great though. My husband got the pork chop and it was insanely salty. The broccolini on both of our dishes were amazing, probably the best part of the meal. The truffle fries and corn dip are a must for starters. The service was quick and polite and drinks come out so fast! The peach mojito was super yummy. Next time I would like to try their happy hour! I think the taste for the price might be better at the happy hour. I also wished they validated parking more than $15. Online it says two hours free however in practice you only get $15 which is only an hour.

    Stopped in for a cocktail and light bites prior to heading to my conference. I tried the crispy rice sushi with spicy salmon and it was an excellent choice. The crispness of the rice paired with the soft texture of the salmon, the pairing of the dashi mayo and other spices creates a burst of flavor in every bite. Great venue with many food offerings. I'll definitely return. Bartender Paloma was sexy, friendly, and made the best lemon drops. Excellent customer service and she definitely made me feel welcome. Dustin is my new bestie! He was so lively, engaging, and energetic. We bounced and vibed together to the music in the bar area and I absolutely love his infectious joy. Thank you Earls for welcoming me to Nashville.

    Charred Corn & Avocado Dip
    Ashley U.

    My main takeaway from dining here was the wonderful service from our waiter and the delicious food. We tried quite a bit of different things and everything was delicious, and came out quickly even for how busy they were. Also loved the Peach Bellini margarita, you have to try it. Also they validate parking for a few hours which is so helpful! My only downfall was it was very hot in the restaurant, I'm not sure if they AC was messed up but we were sweating when we left.

    Steak Frites & Crispy Rice Sushi
    Amber R.

    Best happy hour in the city!!! My best friend and I came in Sunday night!!! And the energy in this place was out of this world!! We had cocktails and appetizers and left full and planning our next visit. Their cheesecake and peach bellini margarita were both amazing culinary experiences!!! I also had their steak frites and crispy rice sushi. This is a new staple for sure and amazing service 10/10

    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.

    Szechuan shrimp and pork dumplings
    Noelle C.

    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!

    Chilaquiles Brunch Bowl
    Taina J.

    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!

We walked in around 5:00 PM, and there were very few people in the bar. We had a party of six, so we sat down at a table and waited. After sitting there for a while without anyone coming over, I finally went to the bar. Shortly after that, a waitress came to our table, so I went back and we placed our order. Then came another long wait, we waited about 20 minutes just to get our drinks, even though the bar was nearly empty. On the bright side, the drinks were great. I ordered an El Carajillo, and it was really good! The horchata crème in it was SOOOO good and definitely the highlight of the visit. Unfortunately, the service issues continued. When the waitress brought the check for me to sign, I realized she had not returned my credit card. I had to track her down to get it back, and while doing so, I ran into another customer who had experienced the exact same thing. They have great drinks and normally provide a good experience, so hopefully this was just an off night. But on this particular Friday evening, with the bar barely occupied, the service definitely missed the mark.

    "This used to be Blend. What a spectacular collapse in standards…read more The space is still nice and the humidor selection is solid -- unfortunately, that's where the positives end. Staff at the humidor offered zero guidance or recommendations. Drinks were forgettable, and we had to fetch them ourselves from the bar like we were at a college sports pub instead of an upscale cigar lounge. Then came the cigars. We were left to cut and light them ourselves, which would've been fine if every disposable torch in the place wasn't nearly empty or completely out of butane. Nothing says 'premium lounge experience' quite like fighting for a working lighter. To top it off, the moment a large group walked in, the bartender started loudly screaming out drink orders across the room. The entire atmosphere instantly shifted from refined cigar lounge to livestock auction barn. This place is living off the reputation of what Blend used to be. If you're expecting an elevated experience, look elsewhere."
