I ate so many veggies during this meal and enjoyed all of them! We had the chef's course and had a great time trying dishes I probably would not have normally ordered (or at least not all of them)! Great value if you are coming with a group and can't decide what to get. I was not able to take pictures of everything as the dishes just kept coming and I lost track of everything that was brought out, but in general, the dishes were veggie-forward but not exclusively (we had some fried chicken that was very good). The menu is seasonal, so made differ when you visit, but my favorites were the squash and brussels sprouts. They were very accommodating of a gluten intolerance at our table and the staff thoroughly explained the components of every dish and reiterated throughout the dinner what was gluten-free and what wasn't. They provided substitutions when necessary. We additionally ordered the famous whipped feta. I am not even a cheese fan, but thought it was incredible. Super creamy and flavorful, it went perfectly with the pita. Definitely order this no matter what! read more

First, let me say that I've been here for both brunch and dinner and they are both stellar. I'll focus on dinner for this review because that is the fare I typically prefer. We came here to celebrate closing on our house with a couple friends and decided on the Chef's Choice for the table, letting them know we had two vegetarians eating with us. The food they brought out was amazing. Every single dip on the menu, and almost all of the small plates. It was an absolute FEAST. Literally so much food. And all of it was so good. There were options for everyone and they were all delicious. The cocktail menu was fun and seasonal and we each got something different that we each enjoyed. Our service was prompt and kind and we left absolutely stuffed. We also sat upstairs which was an absolute vibe. Will be back again! read more

Came here with a friend on a Saturday evening with a reservation. We were seated immediately in a cozy corner table for 2. The host was super friendly and our waiter was also kind and attentive. We shared the whipped feta, warm squash dip, Brussels sprouts, beets, falafel and avocado crispy rice. All of the dishes were tasty and beautiful, but I was most pleasantly surprised by the avocado crispy rice! The standout here is the whipped feta, which is better than other local restaurants. I'd come here again for the feta alone! ....Okay for the feta and maybe to try some of the meat/seafood preparations. read more

Okay, this spot is it. Butcher & Bee in Nashville absolutely nailed that moody, vibey restaurant feel -- the kind where the lighting is just right, the music hits, and you instantly know you're in for a good time. It's definitely a hot spot (there's always a wait), but trust me, it's worth every minute. The food? Wow. I'm still thinking about those charred lion's mane mushrooms -- total flavor bomb. The squash dip with pumpkin and pomegranate seeds was next-level, especially with their unreal bread. Everything comes out course by course in small, shareable plates, which I love -- perfect for tasting everything without feeling like you overdid it. The Mediterranean-Indian fusion here just works. Every bite had layers of spice, texture, and flavor that kept me reaching for more. My falafels were crispy perfection, and I have to shout out their mocktail game -- so good! I really appreciate when a restaurant puts effort into their non-alcoholic options, and this one did not disappoint. Your bill comes tucked into a Nancy Drew book ! Loved that unexpected touch . Between the friendly staff, the beautiful decor, and the overall vibe, Butcher & Bee is officially on my must-visit-again list. If you're into moody aesthetics, shareable plates, and plant-based dishes that slap, this place is your jam. read more

I have been to butcher and bee twice now since my last visit. We ended up doing the chefs selection which was a really nice way to put your trust in someone else to course out your meal. If its your first time at Butcher and Bee I would recommend doing this to figure out what style of food you like. As always, I love the support they show their employees and I enjoy knowing where my food is coming from especially since it is locally sourced. I know their menu changes seasonally (which is great because then we have more food to try), so I wont go too into detail but our mains were great! Service was on par. We got a two seater by the kitchen for one meal and then next time I went all three of us sat at the bar. I kinda liked sitting at the bar because we got to talk to the bartender. read more

The interior is absolutely stunning, it's dark but beautiful. We sat in the outdoor patio which was also beautiful and felt like a magical back garden. Our servers were so kind and friendly, they walked us through the menu, asked about allergies (we had 1 dairy free and 1 vegetarian) and then suggested dishes based on that. They were incredibly accommodating. I will say the food took its time to come out, towards the end we were tired of waiting lol. We ordered dishes family style, here's the breakdown -- Whipped feta (came with pita): rich, creamy with super soft pita. loved the honey drizzled on top! Warm squash dip: SO delicious. sweet, slightly spicy and so yummy with the crispy pita! my whole group was raving about this one we loved it. Spice it up: delicious! glad we ordered as we dipped pita in this + the dips. 3 diff shaves and actually spicy. Potato latkes: these were okay. they were a bit bland and kind of heavy. could've done without. Avocado crispy rice w/ chicken on the side: love the texture of the crispy rice, this is very different and the flavors were tangy! it was a bit salty for me and most of my group. chicken on the side was yummy (+ allowed us to accommodate our vegetarian person!) Mushroom shawarma: mushroom was chewy and smoky. the pita with labneh was refreshing (we were very full). didn't care for the freekeh that much. Banana crunch cake: this was on the house as we were celebrating my birthday! they brought it out with a candle which was so sweet. the dessert itself was SO GOOD. if you like bananas, definitely get this. it was sweet and salty. the base is a dense banana bread which i really liked but some of my friends wished it was more airy. Highly recommend (and def make a res)! read more

The food was great - including the whipped feta. We loved the atmosphere and our server was great - and honest.

Just left this place. My meal was so delicious! I heard great things about it and had to try it before heading back to Chicago. Now, living in Chicago I am no stranger to delicious food. Equally, unfortunately I'm no stranger to what tastes awful. Lucky for me this was terrific!! This is where you want to eat! I wanted to try everything so I opted for the Chef's Choice, which is where they serve you staff favorites in little small servings per person. Service was excellent Bryce and Scott were awesome! I was served: The bacon wrapped date - Now hear me out, all bacon wrapped dates are good. This one? 10/10 The lamb bourekas - really great I was served two pieces so I stuffed one in my bag for later. Avocado Crispy Rice - crispy, flavorful, served with chicken that I didn't need. Otherwise this was terrific. Whipped feta - outstanding, cheesy unlike any feta you've ever had. Green Chickpea Falafel - decent a bit spicy I also had a kumquat cabbage mini salad dish with pomegranate and it was divine! One cocktail that was great the Woo Girl And for dessert I had the pumpkin pie Malabi smoked pecan dukkah. It was underwhelming because I'm a cake kinda girl but it was still flavorful. read more

Butcher & Bee in Nashville is a delightful food spot that blends creativity with local ingredients. The menu showcases Mediterranean influences with a Southern flair. I highly recommend the whipped feta. Service at Butcher & Bee is hit or miss depending upon the waiter or waitress. Mine actually forgot my whole order. It is still worth the wait for delicious food. read more

I've been here a couple of times now so I wanted to wait to give a review. The first time I went, I wasn't a huge fan of my dish, and that was my fault for not understanding the menu. However!! My most recent trip, everything was delicious. First, please do yourself a favor and add the spicy lamb sausage to your whipped feta. It's so so good. Also the cocktails are so good. I love trying new drinks when out and about, and these didn't disappoint. I suggest parking in the lot across the street from the front door. It's only a couple of bucks for a few hours, and way cheaper than the lot directly behind their building. read more

When in Nashville...I just couldn't do another night of fried food. I searched for restaurants that my stomach would agree with, and stumbled upon Butcher & Bee. This place did not disappoint! The cavatelli pasta was absolutely delicious with crab inside, the hummus plate was SO tasty, and their ice cream dessert was a unique treat! My colleague ordered a steak and said it was also really good! The ambience outside (and honestly, the inside too) was so cute at night! Perfect for a gathering of friends, family, or even a nice date! The service was also great. Our dishes came out quickly and the servers were so kind as well. It's a shame I don't live in Nashville, but if I were asked for some recommendations there, this would be one of them! read more

This restaurant was awesome! It was recommended to us by a friend who lives in the area. The restaurant was not too loud despite being full! I recommend a reservation no matter when you go. The food was so fresh. There's plenty of items here to accommodate vegans and vegetarians. Our server was very nice. It's great to get a bunch of items and share them. The whipped feta is to die for! Also really enjoyed the carrot cake for dessert. read more

I love to dine at restaurants that have won a James Beard Chef award, as well as those that have been finalists and semi-finalists. It's a great way to find the best restaurants in major cities. A few years ago, I dined at the original Butcher & Bee in Charleston. We had an amazing dining experience and were excited for them to be a finalist in 2022 James Beard Best Chef in the Southeast competition (which they did not win). As I was in Nashville for the weekend, I wanted to check out the Nashville restaurant to see how its Mediterranean cuisine stacked up to my memories from Charleston. I like to sit at the chef's table, to get a ring-side seat on what goes on in a major restaurant's kitchen. I'm amazed how cooks keep their focus and pace with oak wood grilling on an open fire. It's also hot for the patrons sitting at the chef's table. As a result, I drank a ton of water during our meal. In reading the reviews on Yelp, the Whipped Feta is a crowd pleasurer and sure starter selection. And it checked all the boxes for us. From the Small Plate section, we ordered the Embered Peas, which featured charred English and sugar snap peas. It was incredibly unique and flavorful. Our server told us the Avocado Crispy Rice was a house specialty in the Larger Plates. It's a great combination of textures and flavors, with the avocado adding richness and coolness. We added some Shawarma Chicken for protein and some kick. Several reviewers had praised the carrots. I'm uncertain whether that's the current version, or maybe something different in the past. I've had some amazing carrots at chef-driven restaurants. Butcher & Bee serves al dente carrots, which means they are cooked until they are still slightly firm, but not mushy. I'll say for our tastes, the carrots were too firm and not enjoyable. For dessert, we ordered the Raspberry Pavlova with earl grey ice cream and brownie bites. It was a yummy way to cool our palates after eating some spicy food. One thing I missed on the menu is right at the top - Order Like a Pro. For $56 at dinner, you get a sampling of the best items on the menu. That might have been a better option than what we selected ala carte. read more

We came again for brunch and let me say it was also fantastic. Every bite was so flavorful. The crispy potatoes served with the breakfast sandwich were some of the best I've ever had. I had the Hummus bowl which has the silkiest hummus you've ever seen. The pitas are amazingly fluffy. We will be back! read more

I've been to Butcher & Bee for both brunch and dinner - and there are plenty of good things to be said about this Middle Eastern eatery in East Nashville. We also love this restaurateur's other venture (RHS you have my heart) - and love to support whenever we can! Most recently, I visited for a weeknight dinner with a friend. I went ahead and made a reservation as this spot is usually pretty busy - and indeed it was. Even still, our server was great! She made some thoughtful recommendations and was mindful of dietary restrictions in our group without being over the top. We started out our meal by sharing some of their traditional hummus - which is served with some of the lightest, fluffiest pitas I've ever eaten. This was a perfect portion to split between two people. I also sipped on one of their Seasonal Gazoz Spritzes - which was light, bubbly, and fruity. For our entrees, we each ordered the Avocado Crispy Rice, and I added some chicken to mine. This was one of the most unique and tasty dishes I've had in a long time! All of the textures and flavors work together beautifully, although I'm so curious how they get the rice to be that crispy. read more

This may just be my new favorite restaurant in Nashville. The ambience is great, the food is even better, and it's affordable, I would HIGHLY recommend getting the Chefs Choice menu, it is $56 and you get ridiculously good value for it. You get to try so many things and they just decorate your table for you. If you're not picky, try it. Our waitress was also super attentive and sweet, telling us all her favorites. Here's what we tried: -Whipped Feta: 100000000/10 - Literally one of my favorite bites of the whole year so far. The feta is creamy and sour, and it comes with oil and honey that add a sweet and rich touch. I could've eaten it nonstop, and the pita bread it came with was warm, fluffy, and a perfect way of mopping up that beautiful spread. I would come back just for this. -Lamb Hummus: 8.5/10 - The flavor of this hummus was great and the lamb was so moist and perfectly spiced. I also liked that we got both pita and vegetables to dip into it. My only note is I wish the texture was slightly thicker. -Pepper with various sauces: 5/10 - I loved the presentation of this, but one of the sauces was ridiculously spicy to the point where we couldn't eat it. Maybe we ate it wrong. The other sauces were good, but I just wasn't really sure what it was supposed to be. -Cucumber Tomato Salad: 6/10 - I usually love these and although it was fresh, I felt that most of the salad was made of the hard part of the cucumbers rather than the juicy part. Very refreshing, though. -Caprese Toast: 8.5/10 - The toast was thick, the cheese was SOOO savory and had the perfect texture, and the tomatoes on top were thick and juicy. This sweet oil on top brought the whole thing together into such a simple yet effective bite. -Pistachio Feta Pasta: 7/10 - The pasta shape was great and had a good chew but the feta got overpowered by the pistachios. I felt it tasted too much of pistachios, but hey, if you like pistachios, you'll love it. -Tomato and Melon Salad: 8/10 - The melon almost burst in my mouth with sweet juiciness, and it was topped with some cheese which added a salty contrast that I enjoyed. -Avocado Crispy Rice: 9/10 - Texturally, this dish was genius. The creamy avocado with crispy rice created a perfect contrast. It is rich though, so a few bites is enough to feel ready to move onto something else. -Steak and potatoes: 100/10 - The best potatoes I have EVER had. They were crispy, almost like potato chips, yet still soft on the inside. And they were swimming in this wonderful sauce, not to mention the steak they came alongside, which was perfectly cooked and had flaky salt on top. -Elderflower custard: 10/10 - I have NEVER been a custard person, but this was like, the perfect texture. It wasn't too soft and jello-ey, which I don't like, and it was the perfect level of sweetness. I can't even explain the taste. Just so good! (Everything except the feta and the pistachio feta pasta was included in the Chef's Choice menu) read more

Excellent prepared food. Bit of Mediterranean flavors, schwarma chicken, feta and honey dip along with the crispy rice are best bets. Plenty of seating and a wonderful bar area. Super friendly staff with good vibes and attention. read more

This was a near perfect dining experience. The servers were super helpful and knowledgeable about the dishes they served and each and every bite was uniquely bursting with flavor. On top of that the ambiance was great for catching up with friends or an intimate night out. The only negative were small annoyances at the end of the meal. Food: God the food was phenomenal. We kicked it off with the crowd favorite 'whipped feta' and it set some high standards. The plates were all great for sharing and each introduced to great new flavor combinations. Wish ordering one of everything was within the capabilities of my stomach and wallet! Service: The staff were incredibly knowledgeable about the dishes, offering great recommendations and overall being very helpful. The only hiccup was at the close of the meal when it took close to 15 minutes for both getting the check and the dessert menu. Additionally, the check came with multiple incorrect charges. It was a relatively small additional charge but considering the premium price we were already paying, it left an annoying last impression. Atmosphere: The restaurant strikes a hard balance of casual and refined. The decor and atmosphere is very cozy and really allows you to unwind and be excited about the food that's being served to you. read more

Had a really fun dinner at Butcher & Bee and shout out to Claire who is one of the best servers I've experienced in a long time - thank you for taking care of us! Some real winners on the food front and some misses, hence the 4 star rating instead of 5. Drinks - i'm not a big drinker but my table mates ordered a variety of drinks (old fashioned, ferment to bee) which they enjoyed but the drink of the night was definitely the OLD MILL SCREAM with clarified charred tomato water, Junipero Gin, Basil, Balsamic Vinegar, Black Pepper which was amazing even for a non-drinker like me. I enjoyed my Abito Root Beer which was on tap, fun! Small plates - dips - we got both the whipped feta and hummus that came with pita and also ordered the "spice it up" - 5*/5, so delicious! - Japanese latke - 3/5, it was described to us as a potato latke meets an okinomiyaki pancake and it was not really that. not bad, but not what we were expecting - shrimp skewers - 5/5, these were perfectly grilled and excellent! Larger plates - Tahini caesar - 3/5, cabbage based and a little too salty for our tastes - avocado crispy rice - 3/5, this was also a little confusing - we were expecting more rice and less a grain salad type of experience - special scallops - 5/5, three perfectly prepared large scallops - special chicken - 5/5, this was amazing, whole chicken pieces marinated in a smoked tomato bbq sauce, finger licking good (even though we were using forks and knives to eat this) dessert - raspberry pavlova - 4/5, I'm not a huge meringue fan and don't like earl grey so the dessert was not for me (except for the brownie part) but the others really liked the earl grey ice cream. I'd definitely go back to Butcher & Bee again if just to have that Old Mill Scream drink, the dips, shrimp skewers, and if they have the special scallops and special chicken, yum! read more

We were able to pop in on a late Saturday with a group of 5 with reservations made about two hours out. Immediately, I loved the atmosphere. The plants, lighting, colors. It was intimate and perfect. They had great booth available for our group that made the experience great. When I say this is some of the best food I've ever had I'm not exaggerating. I've heard of this restaurant when I was in Charleston. I regretted trying it in South Carolina years ago was thrilled to see one in Nashville. This is a small plates restaurant so make sure you get outside the box, but I can tell you there was nothing that I didn't love. We loved the whipped feta so much we ordered a second serving. My second favorite was the beef tartar, I wish I remembered the actual name of the dish. Service was great and the back patio was adorable. Even if you just come to sit at the bar, you will not be disappointed. Highly recommend for a date night. It's right next to many popular East Nash bars to make for a place to start or end the night. I'm telling you... if you're traveling from out of town you MUST visit this and East Nashville. read more

My friends recommended this place to me, and boy oh boy, I'm glad that they did. While not kosher, this is a nice restaurant serving Mediterranean fusion food. Considering this is Nashville, Butcher & Bee offered a nice change of pace. I had the potato pancake, shishito peppers with plum and kimchi, sautéed broccolini, and the avocado crispy rice. Everything was divine and worth every penny. It's also very filling, though the portions are on the smaller side. I tried the mead here, but wasn't the biggest fan. Thankfully, it was just a sample, so I decided to go for a nice beer instead. The interior is so cute and trendy. There's an outside area, but I was sat at the bar and preferred the counter to a table. The staff are so accommodating and helpful, as well. What an all-around great experience! read more

My husband's favorite spot in Nashville -- we eat out a LOT, so the fact that this is one place he always wants to come back to is a high compliment! We've been both for brunch and dinner. I'd personally lean toward brunch, if you're trying to choose. I love that there are both sweet and savory options, and that they can accommodate lots of dietary restrictions. We've brought several folks from out of town, and they've always found something they love -- regardless of diet and how "adventurous" (or not) they are. Service is always friendly and feels like "real" Nashville, and the ambience is warm and cozy. Love the back patio when weather is nice! read more

This was great! We came in with a group of friends and enjoyed the atmosphere and food. Personally I enjoyed the apps way more than the entrees but we also only tried the vegetarian dishes so I can't speak for any meat options. Would come back! read more

Butcher & Bee has been on my Nashville restaurant bucket list for years. After perusing the menu, I ordered the Egg and Veggie Scramble, which came with a delicious mix of eggs, mushrooms, onions and more -- served with an amazing side of grits (some of the best I've had in Nashville). The flavors of the egg and veggies played well together, and the veggies were cooked perfectly. The grits were creamy and hearty. I could have eaten an entire (large) bowl myself without issue. I will say, the portion was very small, especially for the price. From looking at other entrees pass by our table, this isn't a place you bring a huge appetite. But it was worth the adventure my tastebuds went on. The service was great and I really liked the interior decor and ambiance. I'll likely be back to explore more of the menu. read more

Butcher and Bee always has been and always will be my all-time favorite restaurant in Nashville. It's my favorite for two reasons - their whipped feta and their avocado crispy rice. You cannot go to this place without getting both of those dishes, and I promise you they will be on the menu. I think about them often - as they are the appetizers of my dreams - and if I can figure out how to make avocado crispy rice at home, it would be game over. My favorite way to dine here is by getting the chefs choice offering. They bring you out small plates of all of their top dishes from the menu that evening so that you can sample and try a lot of different things that look great cocktails are always amazing, but I also love getting a glass of wine to go alongside my meal. I went for my going away dinner from friends before I move from Nashville and I'll miss this place more and I'll miss most things in the city. read more

Our service was exquisite! Our waitress and the food runner were absolutely killing it! My boyfriend surprised me with this dining experience because I have been wanting to try this place out since we moved here! It is small plate style, the Whipped Feta (as the reviews all say) was EPIC! We literally left no crumbs behind (for every meal!) We loved sitting in the upper seating area, it felt perfect for our date night. It felt more tucked away and more romantic. It was a cool touch to be able to overlook everything happening! Shelbie was phenomenal! Genuine, insightful and is part of the reason I love going to restaurants- to have not only a great meal but even better conversation. Thank you for everything, I can't wait to come back for brunch! read more

When you need the best hummus you can get, but you also want nice ambiance (doesn't it seem like you usually get the best hummus at tiny food stands? And don't the trendy cute places usually have mid hummus? Prove me wrong). And that pillowy, dreamy pita had me sighing with every bite. I could literally just get the hummus app and feel like I have it all at Butcher & Bee because they have seasonal spritzes, too. I ordered the apple cinnamon which may sound questionable for a spritz but I love how they muddled fresh apple with spices. So refreshing! I also had the crispy rice which has to be the most uniquely delicious rice dish I've ever had! It comes with a lot of creamy avocado and greens and it's satiating while also a pleasure fest of crunchy chewiness. Our waitress was lovely and attentive without being overbearing (it takes a lot of finesse to achieve the right balance). Am exceptional experience all around and next time I'm coming for you, falafel! PS. Thank you for clearly marking what is vegan! read more

Butcher & Bee is amazing from the service to the food! It was busy but thankfully there was bar seating. The bartender/server, Charlie, was excellent.

It definitely made the experience even better with her help. The food here is farm to table. You can tell with the freshness in every bite! The flavor was immaculate, especially the whipped feta. It's a must! I'm not a huge fan of lamb, but you must try the lamb ribs once you come here. Such a good place that you must try for any special dinner or a fun night out! read more

Sitting in East Nashville on Main Street, Butcher & Bee is pretty unassuming from the exterior. A painted brick building and a box sign is all you get...then you walk in and are immediately transported to a vibey, industrial, new age and uniquely local restaurant that features 1.5 stories of dining space, a bar, open kitchen and great outdoor dining space! This space combined with the amazing cocktails, phenomenal food and great service made for a phenomenal night out! Dinner is served tapas/small plate style, so we opted for a few things off the starters and then one shared plate, and it turned out to be the perfect amount of food. We started with the whipped feta and meatballs. Now if you take one thing from my review, please let it be the whipped feta! It was AMAZING! Meatballs were tender and doused in a curry based sauce that gave them a little kick, so keep the drinks close. For the shared plate we opted for the fried avocado rice with shawarma chicken. It was delightful, but also had a bit of a kick as well! Luckily they seem to know, so they leave you a bottle of water on the table at all times. While the food is certainly enough to bring us back, the open concept, including the kitchen, was such a cool experience. We were lucky enough to belly up to the bar looking into the kitchen and it was really cool to see all the happenings and magic they are creating! Oh, quick tip, make a reservation. Overall, Butcher & Bee has officially made it into the top 10 spots for us in Nashville. Looking forward to coming back many times! read more
