The staff were friendly and fun to chat with, the vibe of the bar was great, and you really can't beat the drink prices. We loved Frankie J's so much that we ended up going back every day of our trip, even if it was just to grab a coffee or some nachos. Every night had something different going on, from trivia to tarot readings, which made the place feel even more special. We also loved chatting with Jay, one of the owners, who made us feel really welcome. I can't recommend this business enough. Frankie J's is truly a hidden gem in Germantown.

The oysters and their accoutrement were SO delicious!! A fantastic chorus of flavors and textures with every oyster. My palette isn't refined enough to tell the difference between each oyster, but they were all phenomenal. We also got the Caviar, the shrimp polenta, and of course, some truffle fries. Genuinely no misses across the whole meal. And our waitress was the kindest woman ever. She explained the oyster meta very clearly and helped us curate truly one of the best meals I've had in Nashville. Would HIGHLY recommend!

If you're looking for a restaurant that puts seafood front and center, put this place on your list!…read moreIt can get busy, so I'd definitely recommend making a reservation ahead of time. No reservation? Don't worry, you may be able to grab a seat at the beautiful bar when you walk in. The atmosphere is fantastic. There's great music playing softly in the background, and as you look around, you realize you're dining inside a beautifully renovated old warehouse. Here's a little inside history: the building was once used to make handles for old hammers and axes. Look closely at some of the beams and you can actually see the hammer marks! Okay, enough history, let's talk drinks! I started with an Old Fashioned made with Sazerac Rye Bourbon. It was very good and served with clear ice, which is always a good sign. My only complaint? They used a red cherry instead of a Maraschino cherry. They definitely need to step up their Old Fashioned game! They also made a great Dirty Martini, or as I like to call it, a "Dirty & Skanky Martini." Now for the food! We started with the Spanish Octopus, which was absolutely delicious. The Bluefin Belly was very good, and the Corn-Milk Hush Puppies were SOOOO good! We also tried the Summer Squash, which was another great addition to the meal. For my entrees, I went with the Wild Striped Bass, WOW! Amazing flavor, and check out the Jonah Crab on top! I also tried the Grilled Swordfish with Brisket Marmalade, and that was another winner. The combination of flavors was fantastic! And I have to give a big shout-out to the service. Everyone was amazing, attentive, knowledgeable, and clearly knew the menu inside and out. If you're visiting Nashville, or you live here, put this place on your list! Great atmosphere, creative seafood dishes, excellent service, and some really memorable food. I'll definitely be back!

Great seafood. Oysters were top notch with tasting notes, fresh shredded horseradish, what I…read moreassume was a house hot sauce and mignonette (everything required / desired). The striped bass was good with a nice Jonah crap beurre blanc sauce. Cocktail had a good clear ice large cube presentation and a good balance of bourbon, rye amaro and bitters.

I'm a sucker for good oysters and mignonette sauce and these were on point giving an easy 5 for the review! The lobster roll was amazing, but those are Rox's jam, not as much mine. The beet salad was simple and perfect!

I…read moredid not make a reservation, they estimated about a thirty minute way, however two bar stools opened up right on time for us! I love the vibe in here. You walk in and can see the raw bar and part of the kitchen. All of the staff welcomed us in and were very friendly. The restaurant feels like a fish market with the open concept. I liked how it was nice and high quality food and drinks, without being too fancy. That makes it so much easier to enjoy a good meal without dressing to the Ts. I opted out of getting a drink this time, but they had three Floyd's canned beer which my boyfriend ordered. It was good and they did serve it with a glass which is always appreciated. We both ordered the grouper sandwich (mine with no bun) and then shared the hamachi crudo. The crudo was delicious, but the hibiscus sauce was slightly over powering in my opinion. I really liked the sauce, I just prefer to be able to taste the fish a little bit more. The fish itself was very good. The group was huge! (Yes we both ate the entire thing). That "Florida sauce" they serve with it is a game changer. Might have to order more to go next time. Definitely will be back to Fishmonger! This time with a reservation!

A New Neighborhood Favorite!…read more We're exploring our new neighborhood and decided to give 5th & Taylor a try -- and we're so glad we did! From the moment we sat down, everything was fantastic. We started with cocktails, and both the margarita and Greyhound were perfect. Really well balanced, refreshing, and delicious. We shared a few starters, including the beets and the chopped salad. The chopped salad was such a unique presentation and was absolutely delicious. For our entrées, I had the duck, which was phenomenally cooked, while my partner had the braised short ribs -- quite possibly the best short ribs I've ever had! The service was excellent and very attentive without ever feeling overbearing, which made the entire evening feel relaxed and enjoyable. Such a great spot in the neighborhood. We can't wait to come back and try more of the menu!

Oh, this place is soooo good and worth the price!…read more I came here for a birthday dinner with a couple of friends and seriously you cannot go wrong with anything you order.

I ordered a seasonal sea bass dish and it was seriously one of the best things I have ever eaten. My husband got the short rib, and it was really tender and so yummy. If you're looking for somewhere to go for a special occasion this place will not disappoint.

We had the Clam Linguine with clams, lardons, mandarin and chives and also the Rigatoni with the Heritage Pork Ragu that they are known for. Both were excellent.

For starters, I tried the pork sausage dish with clams stuffed in a pepper. It was definitely an interesting and creative preparation and incredibly filling. It was good and I appreciated the flavors but would try a different starter next time! I really enjoyed the spaghetti. It tasted like summer on a plate - light, fresh, and bursting with bright tomato flavor. The sauce was simple but layered, letting the quality of the ingredients shine.

I have been on a year-long search for stuffed crab shrimp, and BABY... I finally found them! They were absolutely superb and definitely earned a spot on my A-List for stuffed crab shrimp. And the drink? The Pomegranate Blueberry was sexy, refreshing, and delicious. I had one before dinner and, yes... I ordered another one after dinner. No regrets! The ambiance is what really sold me. It's low-lit, intimate, and sexy, but not so loud that you have to yell across the table or ask people to repeat themselves. You can actually sit back, enjoy your food, and have a real conversation. ‍ This would be a perfect girls' night out or romantic date-night destination. And as a woman traveling solo, I also appreciate the little things -- like being able to find a parking space close to the restaurant. That matters! I felt comfortable and safe here, and I noticed other women enjoying themselves at the bar, which made me feel even more at ease. Great food. Sexy atmosphere. Excellent service. Easy parking. Safe and comfortable. Definitely going on my A-List -- especially for those stuffed crab shrimp! I forgot to mention that my salad was life and I lived it. Gorgonzola Chopped Salad was simply fire.

Both were first class starting with the charming hostess, Claire, and the polished and attentive server, Jared. The French Onion Soup here is not to be missed. A deeply flavored beef broth along with well seasoned slow cooked onions and a mountain of molten cheese were combined with perfect seasoning to be one of the best I've ever had. Eggs Benedict is a difficult dish to deliver consistently and I rarely see on breakfast menus so that was my first choice. The kitchen here offers several variations and from what I tried was very good. I hope to return and try some variations. My companion tried the French Toast and was well pleased.

The French toast is the best lemon poppy seed pound cake flavor made French toast style. The GC Benedict is a traditional Benedict, with a summery lemon flavor in the hollandaise sauce. No complaints from the rest of the group on the avocado toast, GC breakfast or crab cakes. And to top it all off, our server was incredible. They provided recommends on what to explore in Germantown and were accommodating of the needs in our group. 10/10 cafe!

I've been to Butchertown a handful of times over the years and to be honest I've never been impressed with the food. It was a great spot to catch up with friends and the food wasn't too expensive. It's a good spot for larger parties as well because they can accommodate easily. Overall, good spot to hang with my friends, I wouldn't come back for the food.
