    Came to Morton's Steakhouse with a friend specifically for the Bubbles & Bites that's been all over social media, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The deal includes your choice of chicken or cheeseburger sliders with fries, plus a drink option like champagne, martinis, or margaritas, which honestly makes it feel like the perfect excuse for a chic night out without going full steak dinner. I got the cheeseburger and my friend got the chicken and we shared since it came with 2. And we got the lemon drop martini. The vibe was very girly, flirty, and sexy, especially sitting at the bar. It felt like everyone around us was there for the exact same reason, and it turned into this fun, social moment where you're chatting and interacting with other women who all showed up for bubbles and bites too. The bartender was super friendly and kept the energy high, which made the experience even better. Definitely a fun way to enjoy Morton's in a more relaxed, trendy way. Perfect for a girls' night, catching up, or just hopping on the trend and enjoying the vibe.

    Short Rib Tacos

    Stopped by for their happy hour. Tacos were good, although I would've appreciated more sauce. Request extra sauce on the side.

    Been a minute but had a birthday of a friend for a party of 6. Really flawless night. Rob our waiter was textbook perfect. Professional, warm, helpful, good energy. None better. Had the seafood tower and everything was great! Our steaks were all cooked perfectly and the sides were all on point as well. Really a great evening. Won't wait so long til next visit. And Gabe the chef came out to. Say hey!

    Cajun Ribeye
    Joshua L.

    The cajun ribeye there has been the most tender/flavorful ribeye I've had at any steakhouse so far. The sides also really helped to complete the meal with the spinach and mushroom dish and king crab mashed potatoes really elevating the eating experience. In addition the staff was very friendly and the manager even came out to sing happy birthday to one of our cousins who we were celebrating. Highly recommend

    Lobster tail and filet mignon cooked to perfection. Lobster bisque excellent! Michael our waiter provided us impeccable service. Our Dry Martinis were poured perfectly. Our booth table was decorated with rose petals. The Manager took our picture, enclosed in an Anniversary Card. Prices are reasonable!

    I have been coming to Morton's for quite a long time and they never disappoint. Their quality of food is absolutely fantastic. They're a high end steakhouse, so that's what you're going to get. We had Madeline as a waitress and she was incredible, everything we needed was taken care of. She even went the extra mile to talk to the kitchen about certain dishes and ensure information because we had some guests who don't eat pork. If you can dine with her please do! I could go on and on about why our family loves Morton's. Whenever we have friends and family in town this is where we take them. Any special occasions? We come here. We were celebrating graduations and they printed special menus that said congratulations on top of them. I don't think anyone can name or think of any places in Nashville that go that far for their guests.

    The most incredible service and the best and most delicious happy hour specials in Nashville! For the second time I ordered the filet mignon sandwiches - four of them served at happy hour for only $12. Delicious and medium rare as I requested. In addition to the phenomenal service and friendly bartenders, they put sports on the TVs per another's request, and really made us feel at home. I accidentally left my credit card and called the next day to learn that they did have it. Then the following morning, the manager Alex was so polite by meeting me as early as possible in the morning to return my card. A+ service in every way! I look forward to returning this week!

    We were immediately seated on a slow night. Chris was our server he was very knowledgeable with the menu, even showed us the $99 special wagyu variations steaks. We ordered a few drinks, it took way too long. We had ahi poke to start, it wasn't well seasoned. We asked for a little salt on the side. The green beans was super spicy, Chris did let us know ahead of time, but it was heavily flavored with the sauce. I ordered the ribeye steak, it was cooked to perfection however you will need to buy all the side, the price is just for the cut of steak. Wife had the NY steak she liked it overall. Side of spinach/button mushrooms were definitely watered down, all the water of the spinach flooded the bowl. (They should strain that for next time ) to end it we had the signature chocolate molten cake (takes 25mins to make so order ahead) it was served with vanilla ice cream. Overall the knock on the stars was the speed of service. We had ordered 2 drinks and they took 13mins to get to the table. I observed the manager Phil he had greeted all the tables (5tables) except for ours, yes he brought out the food but never once asked how the food/service was he had only came right when we were leaving. We didn't feel welcomed. Plus there was gnats flying in our table.

    My son appreciates good steak as much as I do. We ended up staying in downtown Nashville, TN for July 4th, where Nashville claimed it had the largest fireworks show in the country. Since the hotel was near the streets blocked off for the crowds, we forego driving to a restaurant and opted for one that was within walking distance. One block away was Morton's Steakhouse. I have been to Morton's many times, but not in at least 10 years, and my son had never been, so we found a reservation and decided to "steak it up". The atmosphere is just as I remembered, dark with an upscale, elegant feel. At first my son was salivating over the appetizer called "bacon steak". He was picturing a small piece of steak wrapped in bacon. I laughed, as with him, steak for appetizer and steak for entree wouldn't surprise me. However, I suspected the description meant something different, so upon asking the waitress, it was a thicker piece of pork belly that you could slice like steak. We opted to forgo the appetizer. I had a classic chopped salad as a first course. This is a true chopped salad, with the lettuce cut up and tossed with the other vegetables and dressing PRIOR to arriving at the table. This is how I serve salads at home, and frankly, all salads should be served like this. The dressing gets disbursed evenly across all the contents and the food items are chopped by a super sharp kitchen knife instead of trying to fight with a standard knife in a bowl or delicate plate on the dining table. Great salad. They also served a bread boule. Boule's are fairly common, but Morton's got it right. The interior was as light and airy as a cloud, and the outside was a crisp crust that was stiff enough it was easy to cut through. The whipped butter finished it perfectly. My son tried their 16 oz cajun ribeye. The cajun ribeye is marinated for 24 hours prior to cooking. Ribeyes are full flavor steaks to start with, but put some cajun spicing in the mix, and the flavor jumps off the plate straight into your taste buds. Now, this wasn't a "hot" cajun, so don't think it was like eating some habanero wings that light you up. It has a strong cajun flavor which complimented the meat very well, but on the "hot" scale, I would call it mild. Definitely worth trying, and made for an excellent steak with an unusual variation on flavor. I had their 7oz wagyu filet mignon. If you haven't tried wagyu, I highly recommend it. That concept of "melt in your mouth" steak comes closest to reality with wagyu beef (including kobe). It is very expensive, but when you indulge on special occasions, you will likely agree its worth it. I opted for none of the great toppings over my wagyu filet; just straight meat cooked medium rare. My son and I traded some bites to figure out which steak was better. We agreed (as expected) that the wagyu tenderness won, but flavor wise, both were awesome delectable tasty divine .... how about "damn good"? For sides, we opted for brussel sprouts and lobster mac n cheese. The brussel sprouts had an excellent flavor with bacon mixed in, but could have been cooked a little longer. The lobster mac n cheese was ridiculously rich; I let my son eat most of it. I also had a South Street Manhattan for the first time, which apparently comes with a piece of steak on the stir rod? Who knew? Most of you know that I go out of my way to avoid chains and try local restaurants, but there are a few high end chains that are exceptions on occasion. Mortons Steakhouse is one of them. Next time you are in a city that has a Morton's and you want to celebrate a special occasion, give it a try. You won't be disappointed.

    House Red Wine
    J E.

    While staying at the Sheraton (which is right behind this place, a quick walk) we wanted to enjoy some cocktails for happy hour before dinner, so we came here and sat at the bar. The Beautiful Brianna was our bartender and she was very helpful and friendly! While there, Phil, the manager stopped to check in on us and we chatted a while, another really nice person here at the Morton's! We tried a couple cocktails, which were perfectly made and also their house red wine, which was great for a house wine! Their house-made potato chips were incredible! I'll probably stop in the next time I'm in town!

    A perfect meal to compliment a perfect evening!

    For months, one of my friends kept insisting we go to her "Vietnamese crawfish boil place." I love…read moreVietnamese food and I love seafood, so I was curious, but I had never eaten crawfish and certainly never done this fusion style of boil. I had no idea what I was getting myself into. We finally got the plan out of the group chat and into real life for a girls' night on Sunday. Parking is limited but easy right in front, if you come on the earlier side (which we did). Our Vietnamese friend was running late, so my other friend and I placed the order off a very explicit text from her. We did a make-your-own boil: four pounds of crawfish and two pounds of shrimp in Cajun garlic butter, plus red and green sauces on her advice. One tip I wish we'd known going in: there's a Vietnamese menu and an American menu, and we ordered off the American one. The boil wasn't as spicy as we'd hoped, but it still had plenty of flavor and a decent kick. If you're spice averse, the Cajun garlic butter is still a safe bet with a lot of depth of flavor. The food came fast and took over the entire table. A huge tray of crawfish, shrimp, corn, and potatoes arrived with gloves, a trash can, and a spread of fixings to add more spice and flavor, if you so choose. It is messy and we replaced our gloves and trash can about halfway through. It is also SO incredibly satisfying to crack a shell and eat the meat straight out of it, dripping in butter and whatever seasoning you've mixed up. You work for every bite, which somehow makes the indulgence feel earned. As a first-timer, I'd say crawfish tastes a little like lobster, and I honestly liked it more. Everything tasted extremely fresh, which I suspect is why this place has a following. When our friend arrived, she added two orders of grilled scallops from the Vietnamese menu. They come in the shell with butter, fresh herbs, and breadcrumbs, and they were outstanding, an absolute must-order item. She called all of this the "appetizer" portion of the meal. The main event, apparently, was three bowls of Vietnamese udon soup: a heaping bowl of rich broth with aromatics, pork, crab, and shrimp. It was deeply flavorful and a great complement to the boil. The broth really soothed my allergies and I appreciated that the seafood boil was not a salt bomb like other boils I've been to. We finished nearly all the boil and every scallop, then took at least half of each soup home. With tax and tip, it came to about $99 per person for the three of us. For this much seafood at this quality, that's a great deal. I'm already planning my next visit and have told everyone I know. (Literally, lol, even friends who don't live in Nashville heard me raving about this spot!) Street Brothers is a hidden gem in Paragon Mills off Nolensville Road, and one of the best meals I've had in Nashville in a long while!

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!

    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 don't live in Nashville but would come back to this place when I returned. The waitress mentioned the octopus as a stand-out which I will try next time.

    Had an excellent business dinner at Eddie V's while in Nashville. The atmosphere is always classy,…read morethe service is exceptional and the food is perfectly executed. Their premium steaks, hand cut and wet aged for 30 days, and fresh seafood flown in daily make Eddie V's a great choice every time. I had the center cut filet mignon with roasted South African lobster and lobster beurre blanc, along with grilled asparagus finished with lemon and sea salt. The steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare with a great sear, and the lobster beurre blanc brought everything together. The lobster was rich, succulent and had just the right hint of sweetness. It was the perfect duo.

    We are regular guests at Eddie V's at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, where the service has…read moreconsistently been exceptional. The team there has always made us feel welcome, valued, and well taken care of, regardless of what or how much we order. Unfortunately, our experience at the Nashville location was very different. We had been out all day and wanted a lighter meal, so we started with hamachi, lobster bisque, and BLT salads, then ordered two ribeyes to share along with asparagus and lobster mashed potatoes. We simply did not need an individual entrée for each person. Once we decided to share our entrées, the level of service from our server, Ryan, seemed to change. Our entrée order was not entered, while the table next to us received a noticeably different level of attention and follow-through. I am not going to speculate about intent, but I will call out the inconsistency. Guests should not receive a different standard of service based on how they choose to order or what a server assumes their check total may be. That is what made this experience so disappointing. We know what Eddie V's service can and should look like because the Caesars Palace Las Vegas location delivers it consistently. Nashville did not.

I had 1/2 dozen raw oysters to start. My server helped me select which one we thought I would like best and they were amazing with the migionette. So fresh & cold & delicious. My son got the crispy brussels sprouts for his starter and devoured them. They were delicious with the best balance of flavors & textures. Also a nice generous portion. Wedge salad was so tasty. Entrees were scallops with the most delicious succotash, and rabbit ragu which was absolutely delicious. I can't say enough good things about our food and experience. Can't wait to come back! Oh and can't forget dessert.... The peaches & cream bread pudding 10/10!

    What a nice find!! This was our first time staying on 12 south. This was literally next door to our…read morehotel and I was able to put in a reservation on Open table. They were packed when we arrived for our reservation and we were sat right away! The waitress was so kind and went over the menu and how they do there meats after knowing this was our first time at there. They have a butcher on site, their seafood is brought in daily and house made pasta. She said they even have a pastry chef. But we didn't make it to dessert this time. We ordered the cornbread appetizer that comes with hot honey and whipped butter. It's served in a little dish like a cake. It was tender with whole corn on the inside. We didn't realize they also bring complementary gluten-free cheese, puffs turnovers, and mini biscuits . Those were out of this world!! The cheese puffs pull apart and have white cheddar inside! The biscuits were perfect!! Our main course was the club carbonara pasta( house made pasta with chicken and bacon) and the steak frites (with chimichurri sauce). I got the Sauvignon Blanc it was fruity and fresh! The place was upscale and seemed to be a lot of larger parties. We will definitely be back.
