I added the sausage gravy over biscuits and honestly, it made the meal. But the real highlight? The hot chocolate. Hands down one of the best I've ever had -- creamy, perfectly sweet, and seriously memorable. If you're a hot chocolate fan, this alone is worth a visit.

I wanted an over easy egg but they only have scrambled eggs. My husband had scrambled eggs, potato's and bacon...again nothing special. Go for the view from the 6th floor!

This time, we switched things up and hit it for lunch instead. Good call. We grabbed seats at the bar, where Todd was holding down the fort. The guy was outstanding. Drinks never sat empty, food came out smoothly, and he somehow managed to be attentive without hovering over us every five minutes asking if everything was okay. My wife started with the Nashville Margue, which goes down way too easy for something packing moonshine. Light, refreshing, and carrying enough kick to remind you you're in Tennessee. Then Todd introduced us to a Bloody Mary made with a new pickle-infused vodka. Now, that sounds like one of those ideas that should either be amazing or a complete disaster. Turns out it's amazing. My wife loved it so much she's already talking about coming back tomorrow for another one. For food, we started with the pretzels and beer cheese. Simple. Warm. Soft. Salty. Exactly what you want while settling into a Nashville afternoon. Nothing fancy, just done right. Then I went all in on the mac and cheese topped with Nashville hot chicken. Yee Haw. Creamy mac and cheese. Crispy chicken. That signature Nashville heat. Comfort food with a little attitude. Just the way it should be. The best thing about The Stillery is that it knows exactly what it is. Good food. Good drinks. Good people. No gimmicks. No trying too hard. Just a fun place to sit down, relax, and enjoy yourself. Fifteen trips to Nashville (together) and it's still one of our first stops. That's probably the strongest review I can give. Five stars.

My husband and I came here excited to try some authentic Tennessee BBQ and everything was honestly so good. I got the brisket with baked beans and mac & cheese, while my husband got the chicken with green beans and baked beans. First off... the brisket was SO tender and juicy. It paired perfectly with the BBQ sauce and those baked beans? OH MY GOD. The baked beans were seriously the star of the meal for me.. sweet, smoky, flavorful, and completely addicting. I could've eaten a whole bowl by myself The mac & cheese was also creamy and delicious, just solid comfort food all around. My husband loved his chicken too. Super juicy, flavorful, and not dry at all which is always a win with BBQ chicken. I also tried the Tennessee Sour and let me just say... they do not play around with drinks out here It was really good, but one more and I probably would've been done for the night lol. The hospitality here was amazing. Everyone was so kind, welcoming, and helpful which made the experience even better. Definitely a spot we'd come back to anytime we're in Nashville again. Thank you for such a great first BBQ experience in Tennessee! :)

Inside the restaurant it was very loud (music) and hard to hear even when you're trying to lean in and pay attention. We ordered the "dinner for 2" that's $49 at the time. We agreed that most of the food felt warm and dry. When it comes to the tacos, we felt that some of the protein/meats were dry (and again was warm and on the soggier side.) Overall it's not a horrible place to have dinner especially if you want a quick bite, though I feel that it could be better. My personal rating: 3.2/5

We got the chicken tender combo (mild spice), leg and thigh combo (southern spice), chicken salad (southern spice), and chicken sandwich (damn hot spice). The combos came with sides, so all together we got the black eye pea salad, coleslaw, fries, and baked beans. All of the chicken dishes was super tender and moist and the seasoning on it was so good. The mild spice was the perfect amount for me and the damn hot definitely made my mouth burn lol. I have no bad things do say about this spot. It definitely lives up to the hype! Also loved the atmosphere with this location which was right on Broadway. The service was amazing and their playlist was fire.

I'm going to start this review saying the gumbo I had at The Southern Steak & Oyster was the best…read moregumbo I had in my life! It's my last night in Nashville so I want to go to a bang zoom restaurant. A few of my co workers have said to me: Mr Bill, we see every night you're going out to some amazing spots. Mind if we tag along? Sure, the rules are to keep your fork outta my plate when we sit down. Deal? The restaurant is very large, we're shown to our table. Set in the middle of the dining room and facing the bar. The bar can seat at least 25 people, the restaurant is set up for fun. To get our party started, I ordered a well crafted cocktail: Tea'd Up Old Fashioned Made with Bourbon, Black Tea and House Barrel Aged Bitters. Funky?? Oh yeah I'm with a bunch of Military Veterans and they're telling me their crazy stories. I'm sippin' my Old Fashioned and taking it all in, we need to bond over drinks and crazy things we all drank overseas. As an adult, I can appreciate my Nashville TN Old Fashioned with Black Tea. While we're talking, our waitress drops off a plate of homemade biscuits. The biscuits are fire! Buttery, flakey and moist, The Southern Steak & Oyster can make a damn good biscuit. Next, my Gumbo comes to me. The first taste I can tell this is a chef'd up dish. Better than anything I had in New Orleans. This gumbo is filled with Andouille, Crawfish, Shrimp and Fried Okra. Very flavorful indeed. My last entree in Nashville will be Fish 'N Grits. Fresh fish topped with Spicy Tasso Ham over Sweet Potato Grits and Bacon Braised Cabbage. This is a flavorful dish, the grits are very creamy and the cook on the fish was spot on. We had a great night at The Southern Steak & Oyster, it was a pleasure to dine at your restaurant.

I can only write a Pros and Cons as I…read morewant to be fair Pros 1) selection of oysters is fantastic 2) the Shuckers really are carrying the bar seating 3) everyone is super nice Cons 1) now remember I was at the bar seating, Other than the shuckers and who I think are awesome. On one visit with only a few of us there our bartender disappeared for a good 20 minutes. Upon his return he was focused on everything but the 5 of us in the place until we finally had to ask to get service. The other visit everyone helped me but the actual server. Maybe this is a staffing problem, I don't know but being stuck for 20 minutes to order another drink with my meal is not acceptable. Although they had that check in my hand in under a minute and in under another minute to process. Again, super nicer people, but kind of oblivious. 2) Now let's talk about the kitchen. And I'm adding some input from the other diners because we all sat there waiting. - flavors are great, but the salt and spice level is overboard. I had the mushroom appetizer and nearly choked/coughed to death. I like heat but this was raw spice that overpowered the dish. And the salt about made my feet swell into balloons. Such a shame because the idea is great just poor execution - deviled eggs. Pass - BBQ Shrimp, sort of like the mushrooms right profile but overpowering - gumbo. Two other people had the gumbo and when I asked they said that too is just over spiced I want to like this place, but probably my last visit unless I just come for oysters. Sorry

There was a great live band playing, and surprisingly even sitting that close the music was not so loud that we couldn't talk to each other. Our server was great, she was training another server who was shadowing her. Service was fast, our food came out pretty quickly. I had the Mac and cheese which I enjoyed. It was very creamy and filling! The only thing that would have been nice was some vegetarian options. Even the salads had meat, which I get, it's Tennessee after all! But a few options for vegetarians would be nice. Overall, I loved the relaxed vibe and the comfort food while listening to some live music!

Our server showed up with menus and asked if we wanted to order a drink. I wanted a draft IPA but was told that they don't serve tap beers on the second floor! There was a full bar up there and they don't serve draft there, only on the first floor and roof? Ok, we settled for water. I order red the Nashville Hot Chicken Salad and my wife had the Sesame Crunch Salad. Our server seemed like she was doing us a favor by refilling our water glasses, and not once did she check in to see if we needed anything. My salad's hot chicken was tasty, but way overloaded with blue cheese chunks and dressing. My wife's salad was very good, with lots of flavor, and nicely seared tuna. I asked for our check, and she never said a word to us, just brought the check. Overall, I don't think we will come back. The band that was playing downstairs was a typical cover band and was ok, but I expected better at Jason Aldean's place (especially on a Friday night). The bill for 2 salads and water came to just under $50. Atmosphere: 8/10 Service: 5/10 Food: 8/10 Value: 7/10 Overall: 6/10

All in all its CMA fest, crazy busy, most of the food was great. We will probably go back!
