It is not that it is bad, but it is nothing special either. A smaller beer selection, but they had a decent wit beer, and a mediocre selection of cigars set a stage for mediocrity and the atmosphere of this establishment just reinforces this. I understand this sounds harsher than I intended, but the description is accurate. This place is not bad, but it just offers nothing remarkable, either.

You can also bring in your own cigar and grab a beer for a $5 cut fee, not bad! There are always awesome rotating beers from around Tennessee as well as great craft beers from California and beyond.

I highly recommend coming in and meeting the owner and checking this gem out!

I had a bowl of vegetable soup and a grilled chicken Cobb salad with avocado dressing on the side. The salad was very large and an ample amount of all different types of vegetables. I only ate half of my salad. I saved the other half for lunch the next day. My vegetable soup was nice and hot and quite good. The decor of the restaurant was sophisticated and contemporary. It was an open space with a full bar, many tables and chairs with a lounge as well. The service was excellent. Our waiter was very nice, attentive, and fast. He was serving multiple tables all night long. Enjoyed my dinner and will return if ever in the Franklin, TN area.

The doors opened, and before me, a beautifully appointed bar and a very cozy ambiance enhanced by candlelight. The menu offerings were not extensive yet the options to pair with the "long list" of bespoke craft cocktails were perfect. The assorted shapes, sizes and shades of olives were my first delight. I wound up with a charcuterie-esque combination of sour dough that included a creamy cheese smear along the inside of the dish, a prosciutto-like ham, and the most unexpectedly delicious bowl of warm, smoky carrots in a romesco. Not a drop got left behind thanks to the sour dough. Whatever music was playing in the background, added to the swanky vibe. This is the kind of gem that is meant to be savored by every one of your senses.

We stayed about 45 mins both times. Both nights had great vibes and decent music and decor is pretty cool too. The only drink I had there was the strawberry lemonade. It was like $20! But I guess that's standard for Nashville. Regardless, it was good but I had to water it down a bunch because it was way too sweet. We all had fun, but the biggest problem is that ALL the seating is reserved for table service. ALL of it!!! And the minimum was $250. I understand if some seating is reserved, that's normal. But all of it?? Me and my group would've stayed longer but without any where to sit a chill (without paying a small fortune) we just couldn't. Since it's a basement, it was a bit muggy down there too especially by the restrooms. The lack of seating is why this place doesn't get 5 stars. Hope that can be changed in the future!

The interior was very cute and nicely decorated. The service was great, there was a person at the counter as the server and he was very friendly and knowledgeable about the food and drinks. For food we ordered the salad, crispy tomato rice, shrimp toast, garlic noodles, and the ginger tofu ice for dessert. The salad was literally just butter lettuce with dressing. While it was good, not something I would have paid for if i had known that's all it was. Pairing it with the crispy tomato rice was a good idea because you can make a little lettuce wrap. The crispy tomato rice wasn't quite what I was expecting, I thought it'd be a bowl of crispy rice but it was like patties fried to be crispy. The garlic noodles were fine, but too hard and chewy in my opinion. I think it needed more crispy garlic on top for texture. All good but not dishes I would have to get again. The shrimp toast was delicious though, one of our favorite dishes. It was a think milk bread type toast. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside and flavorful but not too over the top. The other favorite was the ginger tofu ice cream surprisingly. It had a crunchy shortbread at the bottom that was a great contrast to the soft tofu and ginger ice cream. If you've had ginger tofu dessert in Vietnam you'll be familiar with the flavors and texture. This is a great contemporary version of that dish. And the best part, it's not too sweet! #iykyk One thing I thought was strange is the food available on the bar side isn't available on the restaurant side and vice versa. I had wanted to try the fried chicken people have mentioned but couldn't unless I went to the bar side. They validate parking which is rare these days so I do love them for this!

The atmosphere is quiet enough to enjoy a conversation, perfect for a date night. Charles prepared our drinks when we went, and as I am pregnant and cannot drink, he made an awesome non-alcoholic cocktail for me. My husband enjoyed his mezcal cocktail (I forgot the name), but it had fresh fruit juice which is really rare to find near Broadway. We went during a special event but usually their drinks are served in cute glassware. It was nice though to have the plastic cup so I could check out the 3rd floor rooftop (no glassware on the roof). We'll definitely return next time we have out of town guests with us, so we could show them what Broadway is like but then actually drink here with the higher quality drinks!

We enjoyed another amazing meal at 1799 this week. As always, it was a wonderful experience--but…read morelately it feels like the restaurant has been elevated even further. I'm guessing that's due in part to Maverick, the General Manager, who seems genuinely committed to excellence. We actually came back this week because we realized we'd enjoyed our meal so much during our last visit that we forgot to take photos for our review. Believe it or not, we nearly forgot again! I rarely eat bread, but I always make an exception for the Spent Grain Loaf. Paired with the unbelievably fresh butter and flaky sea salt, it's one of my favorite things on the menu. My husband ordered the Prawn Cocktail. I'm allergic to shrimp, so I couldn't try it myself, but he said it was outstanding. I usually order the Koji Ribeye, but this time my husband claimed it first, so I ventured out and ordered the Alaskan Halibut with hash brown crust, orange vinaigrette, and watercress. It was absolutely delicious. My favorite side remains the Roasted Carrots with Leiper's Fork honey and tarragon--they're incredible. We finished with the Carrot Cake. It's less sweet than the version served at another well-known Franklin restaurant, which I actually prefer. The flavors are more nuanced, and the crunchy shredded carrot on top adds the perfect texture. The food was, as always, exceptional. We were fortunate to have Jeff Paul as our server again. He's knowledgeable, attentive, and strikes that perfect balance of being available without ever being intrusive. That said, we've honestly never had anything but excellent service at 1799. Maverick stopped by our table and was warm, engaging, and genuinely interested in making sure every guest had a memorable experience. It's clear he takes great pride in the restaurant, and it shows in every aspect of the dining experience. 1799 continues to be one of our favorite restaurants in Franklin, and we can't wait for our next visit. -Wendy & Ben Ellis

Does it warrant $215 for two entrees, a couple of drinks, and 1 side, probably not. Cedar plank salmon and the halibut were our choices.
