    Sashimi! Fantastic!
    Kelli M.

    I love a good locally owned dive bar. Especially one where the owners prove to be really good people, just wanting a place with a fun atmosphere, cold drinks and unassumingly delicious food! I've passed by this "biker bar" for 14 years and finally popped in tonight. As soon as we walked in and friends wanted to turn back around, the two owners said, "why are you leaving? Let us buy you ladies a drink." We ended up staying and hanging with them and other locals on their front deck bar. We managed to taste food from Chef Jimmy in the kitchen... A dive bar with Sashimi? I don't even eat seafood and it was unbelievable. The grilled chicken and the sriracha maybe ginger wings were spot on. Definitely going to go back (with my dog for the leash free dog run off the back patio!) Live music and always some trivia event or something. So glad I finally stopped in!

    Awesome wings! Tender chicken bursting with flavor. Ordered Wings (30 Pcs) Jamaican Jerk Sweet Barbeque Spicy Teriyaki Advertised as Jumbo wings oven baked then grilled to perfection. These are perfect in every way. Bursting with flavor with the perfect amount of char on them. I've only eaten here once and had a decent experience. This time, we grabbed these to go. All three flavors had a good amount of sauce and spice without being overpowering. The Spicy Teriyaki was balanced with sweet and savory flavors. Jamaican Jerk was smoky and spicy. Sweet Barbeque tasted tangy, sweet, and smoky.

    I've lived in Hermitage for about 2 years. My nail place is the next light up from this restaurant but I was always deterred by all the motorcycles out front. I read some of the recent reviews and my parents and I decided to give it a try. Very cool dive bar, the outdoor patio is a great use of space with 3 bars and a dog park. The service is excellent and the food is even better! We had the chips and queso and added salsa. Chips were just salty enough and the salsa and queso were delicious. My mom had oysters on the half shell (which were HUGE) and the hot buffalo wings, but you wouldn't know she ate anything as both plates were completely clean I had the 10 inch buffalo chicken pizza and although I don't typically like thin crust pizza, this was delicious and almost like a cracker crust. My dad had the Rueben with potato salad and said it was the best one he has ever had. Overall I wish we would have come to this restaurant sooner. I was wary to write a good review because it might become so popular you can't get in! (Haha) Don't let the bikes outside deter you. Everyone that works here provides exceptional service and all the patrons were nice and friendly. Looking forward to our next visit!

    Hot Buffalo & Sweet BBQ wings

    Like pretty much everyone else has said, don't let this biker-friendly dive bar intimidate you. Everyone is incredibly nice. The food is amazing. We tried the Queso, which was great--the right consistency & made with fresh jalapeños. We also got some of the wings in Hot Buffalo and Sweet BBQ--both were great. The spices on the wings were awesome and they were huge. We also got the Bacon Cheeseburger. The jalapeño bacon is delicious with a nice kick, and the meat is well cooked and seasoned. This is definitely a place we will revisit again!

    This place was recommended by our hotel clerk as it was nearby and had numerous menu choices…read moreaccording to him. He was right! The restaurant is well decorated and clean. We were greeted as soon as we arrived and led to our table. Our server showed up almost immediately for our drink orders which she returned with promptly. The menu has something for everyone and is challenging when you go in hungry as it all looks and sounds good. We had the calamari appetizer which was very good along with a tenderloin meatloaf special that had amazing flavor and texture. I'm not normally a meatloaf person, but this sounded interesting and met all expectations. We found room for dessert and it was outstanding as well. All in all, I would recommend this place to anyone looking for an enjoyable and reasonably priced for the quality/ quantity meal. Overall, for the two of us our bill was $130 for 2 drinks each, an appetizer, a salad, a split meal and a dessert. Try it, I don't think you'll be disappointed!@

    I have visited this establishment many times (I've brought in people from out of town and I've…read moredined alone and with family) and have had amazing servers, Tory and Kemma, especially. Today I had a server with green hair--she never introduced herself: she's the server with the green hair. This server decided to ignore our table and talk to another table at length about Ireland, Scotland, her fiancé, etc. I had to wait approximately 15 minutes for my drink, which was in part due to the fact that she neglected us. I sat there with my hand raised as if I was in elementary school: the man who cleared away dishes looked at me sympathetically and other servers glanced at her and shook their heads as if this was commonplace for her. When I finally had to audibly say, "Excuse me", she acted as if doing her job was an inconvenience: the eye roll was inappropriate and rude, seeing as how I had to wait for so long. This happened again when we needed sweet tea refills. We were going to order more food to go, but the service made us want to leave: terrible service affects the restaurant's bottom line. I certainly hope this will never happen again and that I can continue to spend money at Darfon's. If not, I don't mind traveling elsewhere.

    I've been wanting to find a great Irish Pub in Mid TN, and I'm so happy Yelp lead me here!…read more I arrived around 6pm on a weeknight - there was plenty of parking in the lot, and our party was seated immediately. Not long after we ordered, there was live music, which set the perfect tone for the evening. One thing I really appreciated was the noise level in the low ceilinged room. The music brought energy and a great atmosphere, but was never too loud. We ordered the Scotch Eggs (a must!), fish & chips, bangers & mash, and Bailey's cheesecake. The food arrived quickly and was piping hot! The fast service, great vibes, and incredible service have me dreaming of my next visit to Mcnamara's!!

The staff are always nice and the food is always Delicious. They serve Apps, Salads, Sandwiches, Sides, Soup of the day and Have a Lunch Menu. They also serve some Irish Classics like Shepherds Pie, Irish Stew, Bangers and Mash, Fish & Chips and my personal favorite-- Corned Beef & Cabbage. They have a lounge upstairs and live Irish music almost every night starting around 6:00 p.m. You can go to their website and look at the calendar to see whether artists are playing on what specific night. If you want a little bit more quiet atmosphere, they have a dining area on the other side of the restaurant that is separate from the Stage and Bar Area, which BTW they have a full bar serving Irish Whiskeys, Beers and everything else you could want. It's located in Donelson about halfway in between the Airport and Opry Mills Mall. It's definitely worth checking out. They are closed on Sunday and Monday.. Slan libh

    The Finch is everything you could want in an upscale restaurant: great atmosphere, great food,…read moregreat service! We had a larger (10) group celebrating two birthdays and the staff handled things without breaking a sweat. We arrived a few minutes late for our reservation but it was no bother as our table was still being prepared. On that note: highly recommend a reservation, this is a popular place! Once we were seated we had the pleasure of Nichelle, a wonderful waitress. She was on top of everything we needed or wanted and we had very little wait time for her return. Great service! And the food... DELICIOUS! As you can imagine, our group of ten had a good selection across the menu and there was not a single person who was disappointed. Everyone loved their amazing food. What tops everything off is the atmosphere here. It's popular so, as you can imagine, it's a bit noisy. However, I like to call it "lively". And they really nailed the physical design, so inviting and upscale. I'll stop there and simply say: check this place out, it's great!

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!
