    Great cozy Mediterranean inspired restaurant in East Nashville. I felt the neighborhood love when I walked in. The service was great and we even got to meet the owner. The hummus was the star of my meal. I could eat a bucket of it! Great happy hour specials and happy hour is everyday before 6pm. Definitely stop by and feel the love if you're in the area

    Diner Burger with provolone
    Jasmine C.

    I have been trying to visit for a while now, today was the day. Their hours vary during the week. The best time to go for lunch is on Friday - Sunday (11:30a-10pm). Monday - Thursday they don't open until 4pm. Went in and was greeted immediately from a lady behind the bar. She was super friendly and sweet. She sat us and brought over menus and waters. Only one other couple was seated at the bar, so it was fairly empty during this time. They do have a happy hour for certain drafts, cocktail of the day, diner burger, and a couple of other things. Based off reviews I ended up going with the diner burger. Being a burger lover, it was only right I give it a try. I wouldn't call it a smash burger, but it was a thinner patty like patty. But very juicy and rich in flavor. The caramelized onions were the perfect addition along with the provolone cheese. Fries come with it but for an up-charge of $3 you can make the fries loaded or $5 to sub for Brussels. Overall I enjoyed my experience today here and would love to bring others along to give it a try as well.

    Sabell's is a fun neighborhood public house. The parking lot can get full, extra parking is across the street. With the cold weather, inside seating is limited. However, the staff works hard to get as many as possible at tables as quickly as possible. Tshatshkes fill the place. Even the furnishing are great conversation pieces. The menu is bar food with Sabell's twist. Fries and fried brussels sprouts are totally worth it. Many of the dishes have Mediterranean flavor profiles. Sharing starters is very easy. I ordered a house burger (gotta have fries), it was good. In the future, I will go with a plate or a sandwich, more to my desire. Locals are so lucky to have a gathering place in Sabell's.

    I give this four stars for the service and the fries. These fries are SO good. We even warmed them up the next day and they were better than most other fries than other restaurants. The other food was good for bar food. Maybe not fancy a date night out. They don't take reservations but the staff jumbled tables around for us and got a sat within 20 minutes. Ambiance was a bar with neat little figurines on the fireplace and other ledges. Will be back for fries and beers.

    As someone who knows his way around a burger, I can confidently say that this is a burger you do not want to miss out on. Best burger seasoning in the city. Heck, might be the best burger in the state. Don't sleep, get it and enjoy. 10/10 no notes. Great service, great vibes, great beef.

    Sabell's has a great happy hour with inexpensive specials and great food! The service was phenomenal and I loved my burger and fries. I'll be back.

    Welcome to the falafel of your dreams. Casual bar & Mediterranean eatery tucked into South Inglewood, Sabell's is becoming one of my favorite places for a casual hang with very good food. First thing to love: one of the few inexpensive places left for a great meal these days. Even if I get a drink or two with my food, these are high quality eats and drinks at almost unheard of prices (most entrees are $10-13, same with cocktails, beers are more inexpensive.) The falafel pita is THE item to get here and easily the best falafel in Nashville right now. They don't skimp on the herbs in the falafel batter and it's hot and crispy on the outside when delivered to you - just perfect. Lots of flavorful sauce options but my favorite is toum - a garlic whip concoction that adds a punch to any appetizer or sandwich. The mezze platter is a great way to try a lot of the favorite snacks on the menu and includes some tabbouleh, falafel, toum, hummus, and the whipped feta. My dad really loved the chicken souvlaki and I thought the diner burger really hit the spot on a cold night (with truly the world's most perfect, crispy fries!!) Great beer selection and entree and appetizer specials that rotates frequently. On a recent visit with my parents, my mom fell in love with a watermelon mint N/A drink that she immediately tried to recreate when we got home. Lovely patio for sitting with a big group of friends or your pup, and a small parking lot, making it super easy to find a spot. Great, attentive table service whether you are sitting inside or outside, which really puts this place over the top for me. Hope this place stays around forever - it's such a neighborhood gem!

    Curry with added chicken
    Elizabeth H.

    Such a cute little place! Nice outdoor seating, $5 margaritas from 4-6pm, friendly staff. Had the $12 happy hour diner burger and fries, the burger wasn't my fav but the fries were the bomb! My partner had the curry it was a bit bland and overpriced for the small amount of actual curry/chicken received. Would go back for the fries and trying another drink!

    Mezze with chicken (no olives)
    Katie W.

    It was a cute place, had friendly service, and the food was incredible! I had the Mezze plate with chicken. A+. Perfect amount of spice in the chicken which was perfectly cooked. The whipped feta had a honey drizzle with nuts, hummus had a nice flavor, and the noum...OMG. I could have eaten that by itself. It was delicious! The waitress said people either love it or hate it. If you don't love garlic, you will be in group 2 since it's whipped garlic with olive oil and lemon juice. I would recommend if you love Mediterranean. They have burgers ad well, but I cannot vouch for those.

    CHICKEN SOUVLAKI SANDWICH

    Great Food and Drinks. The service was great as well. It's a great place to hang out and enjoy the hustle and bustle on McGavock!!

    Great food and incredible atmosphere. Only downside is they don't allow kids and the patio would be perfect for a nice family lunch.

    Does it serve halal meat?

    no it is not halal

    Do they have gluten free options?

    Yep, we do! Our falafel is made in house and is gluten free. Our mezze plate is also all made in house, and is gluten free (just ask to sub out some cucumber slices for the pita). We have several other options for vegan and gluten free. Hope to see…

We arrived to the patio bar first and had a great experience with the very informative bar tender. She was helpful and made recommendations for us to choose from for dinner. Patio drinks Jack and Coke double tall and Old Fashion. We were welcomed in with a "happy birthday" and seated promptly. Once seated, Katie came to the table with a bubbly and positive attitude (she was fantastic). She took our order quickly and stayed on top of the beverages. Now here is where the experience went from really good to top-notch--apps, dinner, desserts. Starters Caesar salad with spicy breadcrumbs was the best and most fresh tasting Caesar my husband and I have ever tasted... not too much dressing but very flavorful Truffle potatoes with truffle cream sauce and parsley powder came with a punch of savory flavor and a nice crunch wonderfully delicious. Only disappointment was there was not more! Mussels White Wine with freshly toasted local sourdough bread. The mussels were cooked perfectly and made with a perfect blend of citrus and garlic broth. Dinners Roasted Chicken Pesto Risotto was one of the most flavorful items of the night. Risotto cooked perfectly and the combination of ingredients matched perfectly. Pan seared Trout was the best dinner of the night, in my opinion. The corn and blend of dill and burre blanc was a magical pairing with the perfectly cooked Trout. So much flavor Dessert Cremeux olive oil cake was fresh and had a nice citrus flavor paired with chocolate cremeux and raspberries. Very unique but worth the try! Sticky Toffee Pudding So many flavors with this. This one was my favorite, but it was "if held hostage I would choose" situation because everything was so tasty! The server got the kitchen to make me a French Toast Bread Pudding even after the kitchen had stopped serving it for the day (brunch menu). All desserts are amazing! If you go to this hidden gem, prepare to have your tastebuds in overdrive! Wonderful service, amazing food and overall blown away experience! We will be back and will continue to support this local business that supports other local businesses!!!! Go see Katie and the team!!!

Didn't feel like I was right in the heart of bustling East Nashville - felt like a little retreat. The service was great and so patient with us as we were quite indecisive. Especially since it was a new menu and there were no pics online (then I totally forgot to take pics to help future yelpers not fall to my fate, alas!). I landed on the French Toast Bread Pudding. It was quite heavenly, but I do wish it was a bit bigger for the price... My friends both got the Avocado Toast and a few of us ordered sides of chicken sausage (and yeah, that was good and they were also a good size, plus 3 links were included in each order). We finished quite quickly but were in a deep convo about who knows what, but never felt rushed to leave (probs as it was kind of between service times, but still, appreciated). Def need to go back for Dinner and another little retreat!

An internet search while traveling pointed us to Lockeland on a Friday evening and we so happened to thread the needle of being being able to get a table. We did not have reservations but luckily found a couple of seats at the bar. The bartender quickly greeting us, giving us menus and offering drink choices. The bartenders were very attentive and alot of fun to talk to. We opted for a non traditional meal choice and started with a bunch of apps and made it more of a small plate, tapas style meal. We loved everything we got from the wings to the empanadas to the warm dip. Everything came out on time and was full of flavor and the cocktails were out of this world. Not the traditional cocktails you would expect but all bursting with flavors. A must go-to restaurant.

We were able to make a reservation a couple days before for a Saturday dinner. Staff was attentive and gave good suggestions. Everything was nicely plated and I think overall the dishes were good, but I didn't personally think I needed to have anything again per say. What we ordered: + smoked bone marrow - pickled red onion & parsley salad, smoked salt, grilled FM sourdough - generous to make sure we had 4 pieces, one for each of us, bread was toasted to near burnt, and I wish there was more herbs/onions to eat with + queso fondito - PRB chorizo, pumpkin seeds, cilantro, warm tortillas, escabeche - nice cheese blend, but I think it was missing some more oomph, I think I prefer the crunchy chip than tortilla + SM grilled 12oz bone-in pork chop - TN smoked cheddar mac and cheese, braised greens, TN chow chow - Not our favorite entree but I liked the cheddar mac + beef short rib stroganoff - Nicoletto's rigatoni, roasted onion, mushroom & garlic, sour cream - my favorite dish of the night! A unique way to present a classic dish and I thought it was delicious. + Empanadas - crispy exterior and good filling, the chimichurri was more oil-tasting than additional flavor + Gem salad with fried tomatoes - I like the fried tomatoes! I think a romaine would be better than the gem lettuce as it was a little soft. We were stuffed afterwards so this amount was plenty for 4 people. Price was also reasonable!

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".

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!
