Fantastic dining experience. The ambiance of the establishment is classy and has a comfortable feel. Even on a seemingly busy and full Saturday night, it felt cozy. Menu was full of great options and the food was incredible. A tad pricey but you more than get the quality you're paying for. Massive shrimp cocktail appetizer and steak cooked to perfection. Additionally, our waiter Juan, was fantastic and made the experience even better. Our first time eating there, and he made the whole night better. Descriptive and knowledgeable of everything on the menu and the specials, loves the establishment himself, and managed to engage us in conversation and check in many times without being overwhelming. A real credit to the restaurant. Thanks for a great night out for my wife and I. read more

The food was exquisite, especially the salmon. Their salad bar is the absolute best. The staff are top level professionals. Excellent ambiance with a cozy feel to it. read more

We actually ate here for lunch one afternoon and we will definitely be back. The lunch specials are extremely reasonable and the portion sizes are perfect. I got a burger and my husband got a steak and both you can't go wrong with. The salad bar was also very clean and fresh. Our server was amazing and kept our drinks full and the food was the perfect temperature. The ambiance is also very warm and old age making you feel like you've traveled back in time. read more

Clark was very attentive and personal! He allowed us plenty of time to enjoy ourselves with out rushing, but was always around if we needed something. This is our FAVORITE restaurant for our family dinners. read more

I went to Sperry's last night on a Wednesday night. I put my name in for a table at 6:05 PM. The person I spoke to said that it would be a 30 minute wait and I agreed to wait. We did not have a reservation. After waiting for 50 minutes, my boyfriend went to the hostess and asked how much longer it would be. She told him that it would be another hour. I understand that we did not have a reservation, however, when you tell someone that it is going to be a 30 minute wait and it's actually almost more of a two hour wait, that is not acceptable. If the wait time had increased since we arrived, we should have been communicated with. The hostess said that they were running slower than normal because of some issues in the kitchen. I can understand that sometimes that may happen however you cannot tell someone 30 minutes to wait and it's actually two hours. They just let us sit there for almost an hour without updating us so when we were told that it would be another hour we left. We were very disappointed because we were really looking forward to a good steak and salad. I would not recommend coming here unless you have a reservation. Very disappointed. read more

I don't even go out of my way for reviews because the places I go already have standards in place but the few times I do I 100% want to acknowledge the most under appreciated aspect of the experience and that's the server. So many times do the pretenders only acknowledge the food when they know full and well that without the service the food doesn't hit the same. Clark is exceptional. He made a night that me in particular, I don't consider special even tho to my most significant it is. It's the little things, it's the reliability, its the tone, it's the subtle things that pretentious false natives take for granted. I'm HOA level of criticism worthy but Clark made me want to come back more than seldom. Sperrys is no longer an event restaurant for me, it's a staple. I hope others see this post, get Clark as their server, and see what I see. Kudos to Sperrys management, Clark is a homerun. read more

Traveling south my family and I spent the night in the area and decided to eat at Sperry's because it was close to our hotel, the quality reviews, and they stayed open late. The place reminded me of a supper club in the north woods of Wisconsin. The place was packed when we arrived but We were the only table in the building for the second half of the meal which was fine with us. To start our meal we had bread, salmon, crab cakes, and escargot. The star was the salmon which our server told us was prepared daily. It was absolutely amazing. Salads come with the meals and I had some of a wedge and some French onion soup. The dressing tasted like it was homemade it was good and had a hint of nutmeg I think that was tasty. The soup was solid with a flavorful broth. For dinner we had a mixture of steaks, lobster, halibut, ahi, and lamb chops. Everything was good and was seasoned nicely. If you stop in don't skip the dessert. I was told that most of the desserts they make in house and the peppermint ice cream and sticky toffee pudding were great. We read more

After receiving a gift card for Sperry's a year ago.... I decided it was finally time to use it. Dad's birthday is this weekend, so we ventured here last night for a nice dinner. Interior was a little dark and tables too crowded together for me. I could hear every word being said at the tables next to me. That said, service was fantastic. I can't remember our guys name, but very attentive and customer service was tops. They want you to have a good experience. Food, nothing to complain about there! I got the Caesar and the filet and crab cake combo. Ordered it medium rare, but more rare then medium. It was perfect! Warm and very very pink in the middle.... As every steak should be (on my opinion). Crab cake was loaded with huge chunks of fresh crab, no filler. Didn't love the mustard sauce it came with. I wish it had a spicy aioli or something with more pizazz, but still darn good! My parents were jealous of my salad. They both picked the salad bar option and regretted it the second they walked up to the salad bar. I didn't see it, but very unappealing and underwhelming they said. All in all, I would definitely recommend and return myself! read more

We dined here for a client lunch & it was good. Service was decent. Menu had lots of options but I went with the chicken sandwich. Chicken was seasoned very well. Nice restaurant to have a lunch meeting or just catchup with friends. read more

Of all the things I miss about living in Franklin Sperry's is close to the top of the list. The food is quality and the service is superb. It's some of the best prime rib and steaks anywhere. They don't rush you to turn a table. Your server monitors your table as you move through drinks and your salad as not to bring the entree too soon. The atmosphere is old school steak which is exactly what I love. They even have a salad bar which is always fresh. read more

Kate was an amazing server! The food was, as always, delicious. Three in our party had filet mignon, one had filet and lobster, and one had chopped steak. Everyone was very pleased with their food. We all ended dinner with the Bananas Foster made table side and it was perfect! The restaurant was packed as others, like us, were having pre-Christmas dinners with friends and family, yet the service and food, including the timing of receiving our meals and the attentiveness of our server and other wait staff, was as perfect as if we were the only ones in the restaurant. Thank you for making this such a special holiday event for us. read more

My wife and I have been going to Sperry's for many years, starting back when we lived near the Belle Meade location. Last night we both ordered the jumbo crab cakes with a side of the mango mushrooms -- absolutely fantastic, as always. We chose to sit in the bar area because it's more lively, and Kate was our server. She did an amazing job -- very polite, attentive, and efficient. She really made the evening even better .Another great experience at Sperry's. We'll definitely be back. read more

Oh heck yes, highly recommended! What a great place to enjoy a dinner and guaranteed to return. The place has a warm setting and it is just plain cool, they did a great job building this place and you would never know it since it's in a strip mall setting. Service was extremely good, they were polite and on top of everything, made their presence as needed making sure your meal was perfect and table cleared if needed. Dang, the meal was so good from the appetizer, to the salad bar, the entree, and yes, at that point we did have to do desert too. This was a great experience and can't wait to visit again. read more

Fantastic experience at Sperrys tonight! Food was delicious, but more importantly our service was delightful- Luis was a 10!!! read more

Came here with a larger group (we had reservations) after it had been recommended by multiple people. The waiters were super attentive and kind throughout the entirety of the service and made some helpful recommendations. To drink I had the pineapple martini which was actually quite tasty! For dinner I had the New York strip medium well. It was slightly overcooked when they served it (more like medium) but was still pretty tender. Unfortunately, though, it lacked any seasoning at all. Like no salt, pepper, or anything. I tried adding some salt and some Sperrys seasoning which was on the table but it really didn't do much, even as I added progressively more seasoning. I had some of the lobster Mac and cheese, fries and mushrooms as side which were relatively good. The salad bar was included as well and it was okay, certainly nothing to write home about. For dessert, we had the bananas Foster's which was made right in front of us which was cool. But it unfortunately ended up tasting like banana baby food and was relatively inedible. The sticky toffee pudding and brownie were much better by comparison. In all, I was not very impressed by the food here though I did enjoy the service. read more

Everything was amazing. We were there Thursday evening from the time we checked in to the time we finished our meal. our server was Haley. She had a smile on her face and she made us laugh. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was amazing. I would highly recommend this restaurant to everyone . read more

My daughter and I ate there last night and ordered the Queen cut prime rib medium. It came out as a brick like piece of meat that was dry, overcooked, and tasteless! This used to be a great place to eat, but this experience was horrid!! Even the aujus couldn't save it! No fat on it, no marbling, no natural juices at all! We don't complain at the restaurant, but I won't risk it again. The manager at Sperry's needs to oversee the kitchen staff more. They can ruin a business. That grill cook should work at McDonalds. read more

Sperry's is such a great spot...for both lunch and dinner. I met a friend there for lunch who is new to town. She absolutely loved it. Food is consistently on point, and the service is always outstanding. Lawson did an excellent job taking care of us. read more

I have lived in Nashville my entire life and grew up going to the original Sperry's in Belle Meade. I still frequent that one at least once a month, and have never had a bad experience. When I'm in Cool Springs for work, I like to go to Sperry's in Cool Springs when I can. It typically lives up to the original, until last night. I have never had a rude server, but last night it was clear our server did not want to be there and had zero personality. He questioned everything we ordered, but the worst was when we ordered a cafe sperry for dessert. He literally said, that's not a thing. I assured him it was and always has been and that I've had them at both the Belle Meade and Cool Springs location. He pulled out the dessert menu and I pointed it out to him. He laughed at me and said no one has ever ordered that! Apparently the bartender had no clue either what it was as we were served plain coffee with a little whip cream on top. Definitely NOT a cafe sperry. He then got attitude, did not apologize so we ended up paying and leaving. I was very disappointed. My coworker is from CA and this was only his second time going to Sperry's. We will definitely not go back. There are much better options in the area. read more

We went on a Monday night and it was surprisingly busy!! Food, ambiance and service is always top notch. This is our go to place to celebrate special family occasions. read more

We have been coming to Sperrys of Cool Springs for almost 20 years since they opened. We have celebrated birthdays and other events with family and friends. We have always been pleased with the food and ambiance...until tonight, for my birthday. We decided to eat light, just salad and apps. We ordered something on the appetizer menu called the seafood tower. Needless to say, I was surprised when we were billed $245 for the meal, with the seafood tower, marked only "market price" billed at $150. Nothing on the appetizer menu was more than $20. Nothing else on the whole menu is near $150. To add insult to injury, Perry's always has brought anyone with an announced birthday a little piece of cake or something, with a candle in it. I got an empty plate with a burning candle standing up in it. This was embarrassing to even have brought to us. I spoke with the manager in private about all of this and he was courteous and offered to take the 150 app off. Again, embarrassing to have to do this. Our server was very nice and and we have no complaint with the service. Sperry's needs to start working on how customers are treated, understanding that when we come there it is for a special event. We don't expect to be hit with over the top, un-published charges. We certainly did'nt expect the birthday to be treated as nothing but a joke. I will wait to see if the bill is actually adjusted. read more

This restaurant is just consistent. I was in town for business and as always had to go for dinner. We got seated quickly and our waitress was not far behind. As having been here several times before when in the area, we knew what we wanted. The salad bar is always good. It is well stocked and great variety. We passed on appetizers and one of ordered the filet Oscar and I got a bone-in-ribeye. Both of our meals were cooked to perfection. We had some sides and they were of sharable size. The hot carrot cake was our choice for dessert. It's not a traditional carrot cake but it's definitly good and again of a sharable size. We left very full and totally satisfied. Looking forward to my next trip to the area and another visit to Sperry's. read more

We always have a good experience at Sperry's. Their Lamb Chops are always amazing, great salad bar. My son loved his ribeye. Service was great as always! read more

For several years I have enjoyed Sperry's Happy Hour. Every other time we have gone, we have used Gift cards to pay. Last night we were told they would not accept our gift cards. I really did not appreciate the sudden shift in policy. Although, according to Sperry's, that has always been their policy and now they are just "tightening down". So as a public service announcement, do not buy Costco's Sperry gift cards expecting to use them at Happy Hour. read more
