    Visiting from out of state, loved this gem! Amazing quality food and the people are so sweet. Very cool bar and back patio area is gorgeous, highly recommended. Would come back!

    Great atmosphere, great live music, & great food! The staff was super friendly! The Cowboy Fiddler played fun songs & walked around playing the fiddle for everyone!

    I came here for lunch with 2 girlfriends a couple weeks ago and I ordered The Honky Roll sushi and…read moreBoom Boom shrimp appetizer. They were both excellent! I would definitely order these again. I also had 2 cocktails, a Moscow Mule and the John Daly's Lemonade. The Mule was mediocre, I would not order this drink here again, but the John Daly's Lemonade was soooo good! There is a nice large bar in this restaurant and we heard that they have live music on the weekends and it draws a good crowd. At lunch however, the atmosphere is a little blah, no music, only 3 tables of guests on the Friday we were there. Definitely needs a little something! The big shocker though was the bill. My sushi, Boom Boom shrimp and 2 cocktails at lunch came to $70. Be aware they charge an 18% gratuity to ALL checks even if you are 1 person. This is Sparta, not Nashville!! For me, this is not a place I will frequent because of the prices and atmosphere, which is sad because I live so close and I really liked what I ordered and our waitress was very nice and polite! Something I didn't notice, but my 2 friends both expressed was that the women's bathroom had a horrible strong cleaner smell. It did look like they are putting in an amphitheater and outdoor seating which would be nice especially if they have live music in the evenings during the summer.

    Upscale bar food. Upscale decor. Crazy expensive for a golf course bar/restaurant. They want to…read moreattract Nashville on price and ambiance, forgetting about all of the locals!

    A unique venue for sure! We were here for a techno show and walking in gave some Blade the movie…read morevibes. The cave is not super large and the sound is a little interesting. Bc of it's natural rock curves, visibility of the front stage is hit or miss, especially for the short girlies like me. Security and walking to the venue was easy. We stayed on the property in one of their yurts which made it all that more easy. They have large fields for camping on site too. Price point for the ticket felt a little up there but not terrible. And the Yurts were pricey but AC, running bathroom, very clean and cozy so can't complain. A couple of food trucks at the entrance and the doner kebab one was sooo good, we ordered from there twice in the night.

    Visited The Caverns for the first time not too long ago and I have to say that I was really…read moreimpressed. Getting in and out was simple and efficient. This can be a real pain at a lot of venues so having it go so smoothly here was nice. The staff was exceptionally friendly. Their friendliness stood out. It seemed like everyone I encountered really enjoyed working there and you love to see that. There were a few food options...a pizza truck and a bbq truck. I got the bbq and it was both delicious and reasonably priced. (Seriously get the bbq sandwich.) Another win. On top of all that, the venue itself was awesome. A big cave, sloped downward toward the stage so you could get a good view from anywhere, and the sound of the show was great. Overall this is a unique and interesting venue that's doing a lot of things right. Would go out of my way to return. Love it. 5 stars.
