    Henrietta Red - Oysters - so fresh and stunning here

    Been meaning to try this place - it's quickly turned into one of my Nashville favorites! Restaurant…read moreitself is located in Germantown and has a lively modern coastal vibe to it. We sat at the oyster bar, which was a cool spot to watch the kitchen in action. We ordered the whiskey rebellion and the gold rush for a drink - both good, but the whiskey rebellion was definitely better. We started with the octopus and smoked fish dip - both absolute must do's! The octopus was so unique - lightly fried and was served similar to calamari. The smoked fish dip was so fresh and flavorful - not your run of the mill smoked dip! For the entrees, we had the mussels and fettuccine with a side of carrots. Mussels were good, but as expected with this dish. The fettuccine was seriously fantastic - you gotta try this one! Living just a couple blocks away, I am excited to have a new favorite within a stone's throw. Can't wait to go back and order new things!

    Visited on a Saturday during Happy Hour with my sister and got oysters and the gnocchi to split…read more The oysters were fresh and due to happy hour one type was $2 per oyster. There was only one wood fired oyster option - green curry oyster - which was delicious. We ordered two plates of it. We each ordered a drink which was $10 because of happy hour, we decided to add the gnocchi after seeing the table next to us order it and it was delicious and after the oysters the perfect meal to split between the two of us. Service was great, everyone was super helpful and we were celebrating a birthday and the menu had Happy Birthday on it. The restaurant was about 50% full and filling up as we ate but still quiet and cozy. Would recommend and would definitely return for the oysters!

    I went here for a post work happy hour and was so pleasantly surprised!…read more The big Nashville question first - parking! There is a lot behind the building dedicated to parking and will provide validated parking for 2 hours. We ended up staying more than 2 hours and the bartenders were so kind about getting another validation code so we could stay longer. Drink/food choices - I appreciated the fun Dry January cocktails! My drinking friends also enjoyed their cocktails. We got some snacks - the wings, the loaded fries - and all were great and fast. We were there on a weeknight but it was easy to find a table and will be even better when it is patio weather - will definitely be back!

    Catching up on reviews. This one is about Barrel Proof in Germantown. Have been here a few times…read moreand enjoyed every moment. Atmosphere is a bit dark. Music fairly loud, but not overbearing. I love the general vibe of the place. I saw someone else talking about validation for 2 hours for parking, which is good. You can also find free parking a few blocks away in Germantown. Sat at the bar and the bartenders are very attentive. No issues with the service. I had the chicken sandwich, as it was highly recommended. And this is a huge sandwich for the price. Very succulent bird. Another positive is the fact they have ponies for $2 (at least they were when we went months ago). THey also do a decent espresso martini. I will definitely return at some point.

    This feels like home cooking in the best way. The restaurant is small and in a residential area, so…read moreour ride share driver initially missed it. Turnover is quick, so even when they are at capacity, and the waiting list looks daunting, you should still put your name down. We were told the chalkboard has the specials, and shrimp and grits are available on the weekends. I loved my shrimps and grits. The grits were so hearty and buttery, and the shrimp had a good amount of spice. We also got the sweet potato chorizo hash, which had the perfect amount of slight heat and special spice blend. (The spices looked red, but I don't know what they were other than paprika??) Both dishes came with biscuits, generously buttered. We were told the biscuits and gravy were special, because the chef does a brown gravy instead of the white gravy. We felt like we had enough food, but if I am ever back in town, I'd try this dish. You'll want to walk off this meal, but don't miss it if you're in Nashville!

    This is amazing traditional southern food in the heart of Nashville. I decided to stop by after…read morereading the Yelp reviews and seeing the photos of the mouth-watering food here. The shrimp and grits are unlike anything I can get where I live in the North. This is real southern food. The portions are humongous. Lots of locals and tourists dine here. Seating is limited. I recommend getting here early in the lunch hour to get a table.
