The atmosphere overall was great, I did get moved due to a corporate group volume in the dining area. But was happy to be able to keep my server! He was wonderful. I have tried a few things and I forgot a picture because I was hungry. lol the volcano shrimp was definitely worth it and the happy hour is a great time to try it out. The buffalo chicken egg rolls were good as well just wish it was hotter. So I got buffalo sauce on the side. I did order a mini martini lemon drop. $7 and it was def a nice drink for the cost and I felt it I've also like the martini flight , you can't go wrong and my fav is the cosmo , lemon drop & espresso! It comes out very cute as well. Enjoy!

    So many great things about The Finch. My server, Savanna, was EXCEPTIONAL, like AMAZING. She was…read morebright, helpful, and attentive to the max, but not in an annoying way. She even went out of her way to get me a drink that had fallen off the menu a few weeks prior, a delightful cucumber spritz. The ambiance is awesome. As others have said, music isn't too loud, just pleasant in the background, so it would be ideal for having a conversation. The space is open, bright, light-filled, and stylish. Parking is in a private lot behind the restaurant and they validate parking for up to two and a half hours. I wish I could rave the same way about the food. While the cocktails were refreshing and they had a cocktail for every palate, my steak and eggs was bland. It came out a little closer to rare than medium, but I can live with that. But I am not sure I detected a speck of salt or pepper. The steak was at least tender and the sunny side up eggs were cooked appropriately. The potatoes were dry. And I did have the wagyu meatball appetizer. It's a large portion, so easily shared amongst two or three people. Cheesy and saucy with a little spice. The focaccia could've been toasted a little more. I considered the short rib hash, but my server told me it could be salty and hit or miss (I appreciate her honesty and she 100 percent should be praised for it). I came during brunch (even on a weekday). They also serve French toast, desserts, oysters, burrata, potstickers and tuna tartare, salads, burgers and other sandwiches. If you come for lunch or dinner, you can also get grilled salmon, blackened redfish, shrimp and grits, pastas (cajun chicken, pappardelle bolognese, tortellini) as well as various cuts of steak. It's conveniently located right across from the Frist Museum and is part of the Union Station Hotel. I would try this place again for dinner, but would skip the brunch. And again, Savanna was top tier! She deserves all the flowers!

    We stayed at this hotel over the weekend and ate at this place several times for lunch and dinner,…read morewhich says a lot as we don't usually want to eat in the hotel that much. Our best meal was our first night when Kirby took care of us - he gave us great recommendation for our dinner and even played a song for us. That night I had the green goddess salad with salmon and my husband had the New York steak special with chimichurri. Both were excellent. Burgers were also good as well as the eggs Benedict and beef and cheddar. For breakfast, I wasn't a big fan of the peppered bacon but they cooked my eggs perfectly every time. The flat iron steak was really tender but we felt for the price they should have had something other than fries - maybe mashed or baked potato. Our service for breakfast was also great and their coffee was really fresh. Also both cocktails I had were really good, love the old fashioned.

    We decided to celebrate Valentine's Day at Central Bar + Kitchen, and it turned out to be a…read morefantastic choice! They offered a special Valentine's menu for the occasion, which was a nice touch--even though we stuck with items from the regular menu. From the moment we walked in, everything ran smoothly. We were seated and had our drink orders placed within three minutes of arriving. That kind of efficiency always sets the tone for a great evening. Our waitress, Ms. Evelyn, was outstanding. She was kind, attentive, and professional from the start. You can tell immediately when someone truly knows their craft, and Evelyn absolutely does. If you dine here, I highly recommend requesting her. We kicked things off with the Spicy Deviled Eggs. Delicious! I've never had anything quite like them--both interesting and excellent. The flavor had just the right kick without overpowering the dish. My only small complaint of the evening? Four eggs felt a little pricey. But taste-wise, they absolutely delivered. For our entrées, I had the Smoked Grilled Beef and Cheddar, and my wife ordered the Fish and Chips. Both meals were served warm and quickly, and both were excellent. Everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. To top it off, I had the chocolate cake à la mode for dessert--rich, indulgent, and the perfect ending to the night. The atmosphere was just right: great ambiance and music at the perfect volume so we could actually talk without shouting across the table. For a Valentine's dinner, that made all the difference. Overall, it was a wonderful experience. Great food, great service, and a relaxed but special vibe. We'll definitely be back!

A pre-selected, printed menu featuring our program's logo was ready upon arrival, and we had a dedicated server and bartender throughout the evening. Both the manager and event planner were also on-site and readily available if we needed anything.

Such a fun vibe from the moment you walk in. Now let's talk about the food. The shrimp and grits were absolutely fire, easily in the top 5 I've ever had. Everything was cooked to perfection. The shrimp were juicy and succulent, and the sauce was rich, savory, and perfectly balanced with a little kick of spice. Honestly, I daydream about this dish often. Their drink menu is a good time too. Two chambongs for $10? Say less. And their espresso martini was so good. Caribbean Mimosa was a bit sweet but the passion fruit flavor was tasty. The bar service was fantastic, friendly, attentive, welcoming, and genuinely fun. Food came out quickly, even with how busy they were. This is definitely a popular brunch spot for groups, so I'd recommend making reservations. The restaurant is two stories with a great upstairs outdoor seating area. If you're looking for a lively brunch spot with great music, amazing food, fun drinks, and top-notch service, this is the place. I look forward to coming back!

The grilled chicken was juicy and flavorful. Bun super soft and the addition of pineapple added a touch of sweetness. The first time I went there was only the bartender servicing the entire restaurant, and she did the best she could given the circumstances. So I give this place a 4. I also came when it wasn't super busy so food came out quickly. My second time was happy hour on purpose. I wanted the Pinot again but they didn't have a full glass worth of it left. She gave me what little they did have, and I ordered the Preds Punch. Way too sweet but looked really cool. Both times service was good. Would go back a third time if I'm ever in the area.

The game had started but the espn coverage didn't start til about 10 mins in. Not the bars fault. I asked for a short glass of pineapple juice and a shot of casamigos. I didn't get a cocktail napkin or any napkin guess I should have asked for that too. Took forever to get someone to take a few apps while watching the game. Mind you literally 7 people in the place. Ordered the pretzel and cauliflower poppers. Not sure why they are called poppers. They're just fried and served with some sauces. Very breaded but tasty. The sauces were good but don't know what they were. The pretzels were from a box you can throw in the oven at home but the cheesy sauce was good. Service questionable, food sub optimal, ambiance- it's a bar. Mostly likely never coming back.
