The restaurant smells great when you walk in -- the hickory smoke in the air is wonderful. I had the pulled pork, my wife had the "burnt" brisket tips. Traditional and seasonal vegetables were available. I had the "smashed" brussel sprouts; they were sauteed, sliced sprouts -- very nice. My wife had collard greens that were nicely prepared. The meal was good and we enjoyed the food. Our waiter was attentive and very friendly. He helped we Yankees understand the menu items. My reason for not providing a better rating is the prices. I've had steaks at restaurants that cost less than our meals. Drinks are priced that way also. Bottom line: the cost of the resort amenities has to be picked up somewhere; you'll find it in the room costs and fees and in the cost of food. So, if you're at the Opryland Resort, enjoy a nice meal, but expect to pay a pretty penny for it. read more

We were in search of late night food(11pm) the whole resort is shut down except this gem. We weren't expecting much but from the second we walked up and started talking to Chantell at the front it was a great experience. Once we sat down, we loved her so much we called the manager over, Eric, and turns out he's the coolest guy ever too. We ended up talking for quiet a while and he and Chantel gave us some great pointers for our trip. Then last but not least Gary, our server, came and was prompt and attentive. We ordered the ribeye, half a chicken and the brisket. Now the kitchen messed up a bit. They ran out of mash potatoes which two of our dishes had so they just put Mac and cheese on it: this is where I'd normal take a star away. But Gary handled it so well that the star remains. (Extra sides and free desert make me a happy girl!) read more

Very disappointed in the managers attitude at Jack Daniels restaurant. We were told a 45 min wait so we put in our name with the host. When we returned 30 mins later and checked the wait time the manager argued with us saying we were told an hour wait and we said no we were told 45 mins and she kept saying we were told 1hour. So a bit irritated that the manager implied that's we were wrong when she wasn't even there when we put our name in. Very poor customer service for a manager. read more

Margie is AMAZING! just enough sassy spice to make our experience worth every penny! The music was good but a little too loud for my liking. The food was yummy and we had a great time. read more

A bit on the pricey side, but it's what you have to expect at this resort. The burgers we had were absolutely delicious and filling. The atmosphere in here was very quaint with the live music, but if you're sitting at the back, the booths block the view a bit. Our waitress was older and very friendly and told us some fun facts while she waited on us, about the resort itself. read more

Today this place has made my stomach happy. Here are the pros/cons PROS: +5* Delicious burger Yummy fries Excellent service CONS -1* Expensive read more

We had the brisket quesadilla and it was amazing, paired with a queso sauce to top it off. We had delicious Moscow Mules with a great ginger beer to tie it all in. Highly recommend. Great service and great food! read more

Pork Rinds were wonderful. Hot, crispy, fresh, everything you want out of a fresh fried pork product. Chicken Chili. Completely acceptable. Good. Not amazing. Shrimp and Grits. Avoid. Shrimp is good. Not overdone, fresh tasting. The grits were... weird. Sweet and tasted oddly fruity. They added a lot to the grits, chunks of fried pork, tomato sauce, etc, but the grits underneath taste more like some fusion southern cuisine than something really authentic. Disappointing. The BBQ was good, but in Nashville it's easy to find better BBQ. Considering the inconvenience of getting there if you're not staying at the hotel as well as the restaurant not taking reservations on a Saturday night, I'll likely not rush to go back. read more

Seriously amazing!!! The honey buns, the jack burger and the service was fantastic!!!! We loved EVERYTHING! We even joked about coming back just for the honey buns. Our waitress Kelly might be the nicest person on the planet! read more

Nice place to stay and have dinner. Good jack Daniel drinks. Food is barbecue style: a lot of meat and no FISH options. Restrooms are located outside the restaurant: a little inconvenient. Prices are a little high, but the restaurant is inside the hotel. read more

Jack Daniel's - Southern Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

See all

Food was average. I had a mixed drink they were piloting, a cucumber gimlet, and it was really good. The staff was really exceptional which compensated for the average food. I feel the food at Opryland needs a little Revamping. read more

First time at this place. The ambience was good and food was just ok. Nothing extraordinary so being fair I just keep it at 3 starts.

This was by far the best place we ate in Nashville!! Everything, even the sides, were great! 1/2 chicken meal and pork chop dinner. Lemon drop drink was delish!!! read more

I'm only giving this a two stars because of the music. The live band was great if it wasn't for them this place would get a one star rating from me. Our server had an attitude and was rude. My husband & I had 4 beers and some water with a splash of tequila (It was suppose to be a shot of tequila). Our bill was $50. read more

I stopped in here with 3 colleagues while in town for work. It seemed a little cheesy/touristy especially considering it was in Opryland but i love Jack Daniel's so i wanted to try it out. I had 2 drinks, front porch and apple jack. They were delicious as i expected but what blew me away was the brisket quesadilla! So good! Food and drinks came quick, our server was nice and overall it was a decent price for the area/type of restaurant. read more

I quite liked this place. Once again, as is everything else in this hotel, it's overpriced! But I was very pleased with my food and the service. I had to stick to the sandwiches side of the menu because the dinner entrees were simple outrageously priced. The sandwich was delicious and not to expensive I highly recommend this place if you happen to be staying at the hotel. read more

Here for Atmosphere 2017 and tried to eat in the Hotel. Never will I eat at the Opryland Hotel. The pulled pork was drenched in this sweet vinager bbq sauce. I had to strain the sauce with my fork. It was served in a slop-like manner. We had a hard time tasting the meat the sauce was so strong. The greens, if thats what you want to call them, were horrible. I dont know how they call those greens. They had a smoked flavor which that alone would have been decent, but they put sugar on them and pepper. Way to much sugar. Very disappointed. My wife sent the greens back and got mac and cheese. It ended up being bland. If you enjoy this meal you clearly don't know southern food. Lack of awareness in the kitchen of what they are pushing out to the customer. Wife ended up sick lastnight from that slop. Very disappointing. read more

Nice place, good food and great service. located inside Opryland, convenient for guests that stays there.

This was a great place but i have a warning!!!! Ambiance was fantastic, all the sauces were great!! We had deviled eggs, prime rib, fries and beans, all were fantastic, steak was done exactly how we ordered, everything was fresh and hot. Now for the warning... there are no prices listed for the signature product... whiskey, i had the Sinatra select. I like good whiskey and was... I thought prepared for the bill but it was $55 a glass, well ok someone should warn a guy if a drink with no price is over lets say $30 especially when a mixer was $11 ok overall great experience but.... I'll order jim beam in a jack Daniel restaurant next time! read more

The only half decent meal we had at the Gaylord Resort. I don't know what it is about the restaurants at the Gaylord but the staffs are so rude and unfriendly... they all mush just hate working at the Gaylord! The hostess barely said a word, just grunted, grabbed two menus and walked into the restaurant, didn't even say follow me... NOTHING, really bizarre. The waitress was somewhat pleasant, at least she made an effort to smile and did say thank you when we ordered. The drinks were a bit watered down and expensive. The Brisket Quesadilla was actually pretty tasty, the dressing was delicious. The Wedge Salad was fresh and the Blue Cheese Dressing tasty as were the bacon bits. read more

Started with the honey butter rolls. Very delicious! Came with a whipped butter; which complimented the honey on the rolls. Only down fall was the price; $8 for 7 rolls. For dinner, I got the beef brisket sandwich with fries. The brisket was shredded and very lean. It was tossed in a sweet BBQ sauce which was good, but a little too much sauce and too sweet for my taste. The sandwich cost about $15 dollars, which was pricey but the amount of brisket on the sandwich was worth it. I would say there was about a pound of brisket on my sandwich, which made it impossible to eat as a sandwich. But none the less, it tasted really good. The fries were standard restaurant fries, nothing special. But you do have an option to get other sides instead of fries. Overall, the food was good, although the prices were high. But this is to be expected in an expensive hotel. read more

Guy that takes names at the door was a jerk to my family. Chicken they brought me had to be sent back because it was served cold. Poor service. Would never eat here again. read more

Service was excellent. Pricy for what you get. The brisket quesadilla was good. I would split the plate. It is too much to eat alone. Good sweet tea. read more

Well this all looks all good! Another day in Nashville Tennessee! We're at the Gaylord, November 3,2017. Getting dinner green fried tomatoes! An some fried chicken! Please read more

Just ordered their porkgrinds...but very disappointed. They put way too much seasoning...made it too salty and not edible. Had to throw it away. read more

Pepsi? "Jack and Pepsi?" Seriously? Did Laverne buy the brand? Only Yankees would order a Jack and Pepsi. Terrible. read more

The brisket quesadilla was one of the most delicious things I have had since being in Nashville. The service was on the slow side and the pecan pie was not my favorite, but I would definitely go back for the quesadilla. The live band wasn't bad either. read more

Great drinks and food. What made this place even better was ChaCha and Johnny, the bar tenders. They made us want to go back nightly. I have 3 check in but we went more than that. read more

Ordered the beef short ribs. They were full of grease and fat with no flavor. The famous rolls came in a cast iron skillet, they were dried out, room temperature, with almost no honey butter on top. In other word they were old. Our server acted as though he was in a rush and we were a bother. He never came back to check on us and changed my wife's $6 tip into $16 thinking she would not check and let it be charged to our room. By habit I left 15% on my cheque which I truly regret due to how we were treated. We will not eat at any restaurant in this hotel for the remainder there is better food at better prices with in a short drive. Conventions isn't always worth it. read more

Beyond disappointing. Brisket was so fatty, couldn't eat 25% of the meal. Salad was small, but paid a decent amount for it, chicken was cold on salad but was told its "served that way" bad produce throughout entire salad. Never coming back. read more

We got sat very quick (granted it was a Sunday). But, our waitress was very rude and honestly I think she stole the table from another waitress cause we were greeted twice. Anyway, someone in our party had a question about the menu but didn't directly address the waitress to which she replied "I'm right here." She also was snappy when I asked for the check as if I was rushing her. We were simply done eating, and I asked in the nicest way possible and she very rudely replied. I'll honestly never eat there again if I'm back at the hotel. The food also wasn't worth the astronomical prices. If we're paying $19 for a burger, the least we can get is good customer service, especially when we're being kind (as one always should be when going out to eat). I worked in the food industry for 10 years, so this is coming from a place of empathy, not entitlement. I know what it means to be busy and in the weeds, but I never let that get in the way of matching energy with guests that are showing kindness and patience. It was upsetting. read more

Loved our experience! Our waiter helped us order by giving us great recommendations. My husband got the brisket with two sides, mac n' cheese and mashed potatoes. Yum! The brisket was outstanding and potatoes were amazing!! I want to make mashed potatoes like that! I ordered a bacon cheddar burger medium well with a side salad and was HAPPY HAPPY. We then ordered the brownie sundae and I'm IMPRESSED!!! Loved It!!! The ice cream on top, salted caramel, had me sold. We added whipped cream too, which I think is made in house (the only way to do it!) Beer and wine were BOMB!!! read more

If you want shredded pork and BBQ sauce, Jack Daniel's will do nicely. The wait staff is friendly and the service was prompt considering we arrived at the resort on a super crazy and crowded day. If you want lighter fare, however, stick with a salad. Avoid the fried catfish entree! It's not a filet, but rather poor quality pieces of catfish fried up into fish bites. I picked at it as best I could and was glad to relegate the rest to a garbage can. This disappointing meal was priced at $24. The pork is a better bet! read more

Frankie was the best, and the brisket quesadilla and honey rolls are to die for! I have no idea why the reviews on this place are so low. This was the best place we ate in Nashville! read more

The rolls here were AMAZING. The drinks (even just water) are in 32 oz glasses which is nice because you don't have to continuously wait on refills. The set up has just enough to represent Jack Daniels without being too korny/forced. The food was pretty good! read more

Showed up this evening for a group dinner to find the restaurant inexplicably closed despite the published operating hours indicating the restaurant is open. Not. Cool. I guess my recommendation would be not to, you know, dare try to have dinner at the restaurant during normal business hours. If you do decide to try it, maybe don't do it during the height of the Christmas season when getting in and out of the hotel is a cluster. Pro tip-darting around horse drawn carriages and driving around for 20 minutes to finally score your $24 parking space doesn't make for a very happy camper when you finally get to the restaurant and find it closed for no reason. read more

We got into Nashville late on a Saturday night and after going straight to our rooms we headed here for drinks and dinner. We sat ourselves and waited about 5 minutes when the waitress came over and told us the kitchen was closed - ugh!!! So we asked if she had any bread or crackers we could have (we had just flown in from California and hadn't eaten since 11 am), she said no and quickly took our drink orders. She brought us our drinks and then surprised us with a small plate of saltines and some deviled ham, cheese dip. We were stoked!!! The crackers were great, the dip was terrible, but we ate it anyway because we were starving and the drinks were fab!! Our bill for 6 drinks was $75, a little pricey, but was good :) There was a live band playing which was nice - we were able to sit and drink and munch while listening and unwinding from the trip. We did get kicked out at about 1-130, they handed us plastic cups and had us pour our drinks into them so we would leave (they had closed!) - at least they provided to-go cups!! read more

When I eat at a restaurant I expect the food quality to be better than I can make at home. My wife and I shared a fried pickle appetizer (decent after you press all the grease out) and a pulled pork plate with macaroni and cheese, cheese grits and an added side of greens. I'd rather eat bad organic box Mac and cheese compared to the pasty thick thing they brought me. I am assuming the pulled pork was pulled out of a freezer because it wasn't hot/warm and was very dry. Don't waste your time or money at this restaurant. read more

Expensive! I had brisket and ribs. $22.00 for 4 ribs and 4 slices of brisket! The brisket was over cooked. The waiter was not very good. He forgot to order our drinks. $10.00 for a Jack Daniels Lemon Drop drink! They have a good beer selection! read more

The food was delicious . The hamburgers and French fries were great. The French fries had a great taste with a bbq seasoning . The hamburgers were cooked perfectly . Someone at the table ordered the chopped salad and it could have fed the whole table and the dressing was delicious . I would highly recommend this restaurant , great food and good service . read more
