Black Rabbit - Tapas/Small Plates Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

We had stopped here for a cocktail before heading to a concert event in Nashville. Didn't realize until recently that Black Rabbit was a multi-location business and have also been to the speakeasy-themed venue in Louisville. Service was okay here. The bartender broke a glass on the bar directly in front of us and shards flew everywhere, so a bit of excitement. We had to move several barstools down the bar as a consequence until the glass could be removed. We finished our drinks, settled the bill, and decided to check other area watering holes and restaurants. Space appeared moody and intimate and might return to try food items when returning to visit the area. read more

Local here, and Black Rabbit continues to deliver. I went this time with my boyfriend and we had a gift card, so we decided to stick strictly to the happy hour menu, and wow, such a good move. The $6 margaritas were so good that we each ended up getting three. I especially loved the salt rim, which really made the margaritas for me. Perfectly balanced, not too sweet, and honestly one of the better happy hour margarita deals I've had in Nashville. Food-wise, the smoked mac and cheese and pork tacos were both incredible. Comforting, flavorful, and way better than what you typically expect from happy hour food. It was one of those meals where you're already planning what you'll order next time while you're still eating. This was actually my second visit. The first time was for dinner when my parents, aunt, uncle, and cousin were in town, and that experience was great too. Both visits have been solid in totally different ways, which says a lot. Overall, such a worthwhile happy hour spot, especially if you're local and want good drinks, good food, and a fun vibe without breaking the bank. Looking forward to my next visit. read more

After rooftop cocktails we were starving and decided on Black Rabbit. It was dim and chill. There was a live band which was a huge plus! We ordered crab cakes and pork chops and the service and hospitality were amazing. read more

Literally everything I ate was amazing!!!!! Went with a group of 5. We started with the beats and Spinach, crab cake and sourdough bread. The butter for the bread was to die for! The beats were tasty and I did not have the crab cake. Everyone said it was good. For my main, I have the rainbow trout. The veggies with it were good. Pretty standard. Someone at the table ordered the pasta and I was blown away! The star really were the drinks! I had an heirloom tomato martini that was so complex and...probably the single best drink I've ever had! I'll never have anything like it again. I also ordered the grasshopper martini which yummmmm!!!!! For dessert we ordered the Nutella pudding. Incredible! The place itself was gastro pub vibes and casual but fun, nice, inviting. Our server was outstanding and very helpful with the menu. I highly recommend! read more

Initial Reaction: Black Rabbit was a magical spot to enjoy dinner during our most recent stay in Nashville. They had plenty of gluten-free options, which we took advantage of since my wife is celiac. The entrance was very cool as we walked through the open gate. There are several tables in the front, followed by a bar towards the back, before seeing the open-floored kitchen and additional tables and high tops. We liked watching the kitchen prepare the food, which was like a well-oiled machine. We enjoyed some delicious pork tacos, and the bone-in pork chop was magical. Served with a fantastic mustard sauce, the pork chop was incredibly satisfying for both of us. Cocktail-wise, the barrel-aged old fashioned and the "If you got the money, honey" were deeply satisfying that allowed me to live my best life. For dessert, the Nutella mousse was exquisite and delightful that brought us to a place of spiritual purity and strength, strength and spiritual purity. I applaud Black Rabbit for its brilliance. They are a great spot to check out in Printer's Alley of downtown Nashville. read more

Had reservations before a show at TPAC. Walking distance to the venue is quite reasonable. The pasta primavera seemed a little lemon forward at first but as I made my through and got everything mixed in well it balanced out. The dish was tasty. The shrimp in the creole shrimp dish were cooked perfectly, but the rice was a little too el dente. If we were to go back, would definitely get the pasta primavera again, but add the shrimp. Service was great, and the two servers we had were super friendly. read more

The Black Rabbit is a very nicely decorated restaurant/bar. I had the Mushroom pasta and house salad. The house salad had tomatoes, cucumbers, bacon, blues cheese, onions, and tasty mixed greens. Delicious! Our server was friendly, but was on the slower side. I do recommend giving this place a try! read more

Small, eclectic spot for a drink and dinner. Rabbit/Pork spam sliders were bready. Cajun shrimp was excellent and authentic. Tri-tip was cooked very well but lacked seasoning. Chimichurri was good, but the steak needed salt and pepper. Funghi pasta was light and fresh. Sourdough bread was also great. read more

We came here after landing to meet up with some friends. Food and drinks were excellent and so was the service. They were even able to split the bill per guest which is really nice so people pay for what they order. read more

Happy accident later in the evening when wanting a small bite and a nightcap. Never would have imagined enjoying an heirloom tomato martini - but it was SOOO good! The small plates were the perfect size and exquisite flavor pairings. 10/10 recommend this small/quaint vibe for a cocktail and/or small bites when in Nash! read more

The fact our food was cold and we got automatically charged 22 percent tip for our group of 6. I can understand 18 or 20 but let us decide based on service if we want to tip more. And then they charge a service fee. read more

Was trying to find a spot for happy hour deals on a Friday, which turns out to be harder then you think as most places only do Mon-Thur. I had a great mule and a couple snacks. Crab cake and brussel sprouts, I really enjoyed both and it was a perfect meal before heading back to the hotel to get ready for a night out. Note I sat at the bar so was seated quite quickly, as I was leaving it had started to get busy so earlier may be better to get a seat but service was fast and easy. read more

They have a great happy hour, I believe the well drinks are half off! I got a Mexican mule and it was perfect. The sourdough and butter are a great starter especially the butter! The gnocchi is a starter but you could get it for your meal and be satisfied. They have live music some days and I will have to go back for that! Great place for date night or to grab drinks with friends. read more

Another great gluten-free meal in Nashville. I enjoyed my high-top seat where I could watch the chefs cook. They had a large party, and they weren't missing a beat! It was fun to watch them prep everything. Even with that, our food still came out fast and delicious. I rarely order tacos when I travel, as I am spoiled with good, authentic ones in South Florida, but these pork tacos are legit! The craft cocktails were creative and well-made. Our server was extremely knowledgeable about what I could have gluten-free. Amazing meal. read more

A lovely, relaxing venue, off the beaten path. We were looking for a spot to grab a quiet drink after a day of walking though downtown, and were lucky enough to find this place. When we got there, happy hour was still going and there were plenty of seats. Best of all, we avoided the din of Broadway and the dinginess and priciness of Printer's Alley. I had a happy hour margarita for $6 that was just fine. Next time we're in town, we'll time our visit to grab some food which I understand is great and stay for their live music. read more

Great atmosphere , didn't get pictures but we slept the crab cake and the prime NY strip. Because of the time at night they were out of a few things we wanted , diet soda and the wood fired chicken . But the strip was tasty w a really nice bark of flavor and a soft med rare center . The potatoes w horseradish sauce was a subtle flavor bonus . We each added an old fashion . It was a great flavor orange bitters and angels envy bourbon . The entertainment was Lydia Bryan and she was fantastic we stated and ordered a few more drinks to continue listening read more

What a cool place! All of our food was excellent and the server knew the menu like the back of her hand. The crab cake was the only dish that was just ok. The steaks were fantastic and not too crazy priced. Overall we enjoyed everything and will definitely come back when in town again. read more

This was a little disappointing. The food was ok. The restaurant lacked atmosphere. We were in and out very quickly. We didn't feel like staying. read more

We came here for a fairly quick dinner and had a great meal with pretty hands off service. We had just missed happy hour, which was a bummer as they have some well priced drinks on happy hour. We ended up splitting a mocktail which was fun and different. We shared the beet salad and the massive pork chop and everything was well seasoned and well cooked. We were seated near the entrance so we didn't get to much exposure to the rest of the restaurant and ambiance but it was alright. Our server was friendly but didn't check on us too much. Overall good experience. read more

I am in Nashville just for a quick weekend but lived here for 20+ years. I decided to visit one of my favorite places to see how it did after Covid. It's doing great! Popping in for their wonderful Happy Hour (4-6 pm M-F) the 4 of us had their well-mixed Old Fashions for a steal at $6. A limited Happy Hour menu but this is a deal and so good. We also ordered some tacos (looked good but I didn't partake); a tomato salad (so fresh) and a loaf of their bread-fabulous. A must do! Friendly and well located a few blocks off of noisy but fun Broadway this is a place to go for some savory food! Reservations a must during peak times. read more

Cool spot, live music later in the evening,but went early for dinner after a long day of exploring the city. Food and service were good and tasty. I had steak and potatoes and my wife had the half chicken which was cooked perfectly. Worth it read more

Must try if you are able to squeeze into a seat, especially for happy hour, you cannot beat that $6 marg! I know my boyfriend loves me when we go to places like Black Rabbit- yes sourdough IS a love language and they are fluent here. The course salt flakes sprinkled all over and drizzle of olive oil really took that loaf to the next level! Service was so fast and friendly, the bar was popular and tables were filled. Make a reservation or come in the minute happy hour starts! read more

Black Rabbit is a downtown gem. Downtown, but not in THAT part of downtown where tourists are bumbling drunk with cowboy boots on. The food is great. I've had the crab cake twice as well as the kale salad. The sourdough bread is pretty good as well. They had a wonderful band performing the Friday night I was there as well. I highly recommend for a chill, downtown dining experience. read more

We stopped in for a quick cocktail so we can't comment on the food but the staff was very nice and attentive. Our water glasses were always filled and we were checked on often. We enjoyed a few bourbon drinks and they are delicious. We were there around 4:30pm and it was nice and quiet, which is what we prefer. read more

In a city filled with endless options and good food, this place sticks out. It's a welcoming and well designed place that appears built around the food for a relaxing but upscale casual experience The service was great. The waiter knew the food like he had created the menu himself. Very calm but efficient service. The food was High quality, perfect sized portions, amazing flavor. The sourdough app was way more complex and delicious than you might assume from bread. It's apparently a 40 year old starter and instead of going further into everything else, just go try it. I also had the tri tip and it was a perfectly prepared dish full of flavorful goodness. Give this place a try. read more

Whew!!! This place is awesome. Food is fantastic and the service is a match. If you are in Nashville you have to stop in.

Exploring Nashville and came across Printers Alley. Noticed an interesting heart mural! Walked over and it was a restaurant- Black Rabbit. Looked up reviews on Yelp and Google- great reviews! Made reservations for dinner! We had the best seats in the restaurant! We were seated at the "Chef's Table"- front row seat to the open kitchen! Highest compliments to the Chef and Kitchen Brigade!! Cooking artistry in motion! It was like I was watching an awesome cooking show!! Loved the freshly baked sour dough bread! Cesar salad perfectly dressed! Absolutely love my scallops! Tender and flavorful! Hubby enjoyed the pork chop! Cheesecake was the perfect sweet treat! Loved my Dress to Kill cocktail! Our Server Jennifer S. was exceptional! Knew the menu well, answered questions and made recommendations. She checked in on us! Friendly and helpful. There was live music starting at 8pm! Great ambiance! Love the heart mural- "Embrace Life, Embrace Love, Embrace Each Other" ‼ love this ! Overall- a wonderful dinning experience! Fantastic cuisine and service! Thank you!! Highly recommend to anyone visiting Nashville!! read more

From the moment we entered I knew this would be a special experience. Perfect for an intimate meal or date night. My girlfriends and I were sat by the musicians and we enjoyed a lovely evening in this moody dimly lit spot. We ordered cocktails, the sourdough bread app and then main courses. The service was great, simple and not fussy. I got the rigatoni ragu, my friends got the shrimp and lentils and the half chicken. We all shared and every dish was special in its own way. This is the way I love to dine. Simple meals with great flavors and a cool ambiance. read more

I went here with a few coworkers for dinner and drinks after work. We all split a few appetizers and entrees. The food was very good. Service was above average. Our waitress was a bit ditzy and forgetful, but overall she was fine. Prices are what you would expect for a restaurant in downtown Nashville. Ambiance can get a little loud for a dinner. read more

I'm going to make this short and sweet, well as short as possible. Go to Black Rabbjt for a good meal and nice but unpretentious atmosphere. But don't expect superb table service. Pros: The food tasted excellent. We ordered bread and salads to start and steaks, pork chop with Brussels sprouts, and pesto gnocchi for our mains. The flavors were spot on. The pork chop was juicy and tender. The steaks were well seasoned. The salads were portioned well for starters and very fresh with an interesting mix of flavors. Cons: Our starter salads were served and after literally two bites our entrees arrived. I ate my salad and by the time I was ready for my pork chop it was on the cool side. The steaks were prepared rare to medium rare vs the requested medium. One slice looked like it may moo. But the guys ate rather than wait for a refire. The Nutella chocolate mousse was not mousse, it was pudding. A delicious pudding. But don't offer mousse if that's not what will be served. Mousse and pudding are two very different desserts that I make from scratch at home. Would we return if we are in Nashville again? Maybe. There are far too many other amazing places to try before taking a second chance on a place that was not all around spectacular. Should you try Black Rabbit? Yes. The food is quite good and the Best Damn G&T was the best damn G&T that I've had in a long time. read more

Best half chicken I've had in my life! 10/10. Loved it and the service was great. Must check out.

Nice dinner. Large group. Food was very good. Atmosphere was fun and lively. Server was condescending.
