    Early evening stop in Green Hill area after another long day of work. We stopped at Doughbird for some pizza and a drink. I think of myself a a bit of a pizza guru. I have to say this pizza was nothing short of amazing. Crust was crisp, yet doughy. Toppings were just enough. You can tell this pizza was well thought through. Was much better than we expected. The bacon on The Aviator was amazing. A bit of a smoky flavor added to the pepperoni. We will absolutely come to this location again. I would rate the pizza an 8.7 out of 10. Very high score for a local pizza place here in the Nashville area. It was absolutely delicious! If you are on this side of Nashville, fly on into Doughbird. You will not be disappointed.

    A few friends and I chose Doughbirds for a going away meal, and we enjoyed! The restaurant is spacious and well-lit. Great place for group dining. It wasn't very crowded, giving a relaxed vibe. There's free parking in the garage. Loved: service (very helpful, recommended my pizza); Spicy Hawaiian (nice balance of spicy and sweet) Like: rotisserie chicken; crispy chicken sandwich

    The Pepperoni Pizza

    Met my wife here a while back for a date night out since we had a break from the action of work and my son was hanging out at his friend's house. We decided to hit Green Hills area since she works close by there. Here was our experience in a nutshell... Ambiance: Great corner location and dedicated parking in a covered garage with No charge (which is HUGE here). Restaurant is slightly more upscale than the rest and was clean. Service: I arrived early and asked about old fashions - to which I was told that during happy hour they were two for one...I asked what bourbon they used and she told me that it was jim beam so I asked if there was another choice l. She kindly replied that yes they had a house rye but it was a $3 up charge. I kindly accepted to get away from JB and sipped the nice flavor and taste the the rye had. and then ordered another after my bride showed up and ordered a wine and her pizza. Food: Food was average and honestly the portions we ran all considering the price...but hey it is Green Hills so there's that. Price: Heavy for a pizza and chicken place...additionally when the bill was brought out she charged 2 old fashioneds and the up charge making it a $17 Old Fashioned and didn't give me the 2-1 happy hour special - but didn't tell me when i asked about the up charge if that voided the deal..she just assumed i didn't care....not the greatest way to honor your advertising nor the customer in this regard. Summary: Skip the entrees maybe and opt for an appetizer and maybe a cocktail if you can go during happy Hour - otherwise I'd probably see myself at a more upfront establishment for the evening. Not bad but the flavor was lost on the non communication and small portions for the price - so for me value is under water here... But......Keep Munching Y'All!!!

    Blackberry habanero margarita
    Brittany K.

    Very disappointed. I had 3 friends that told me that the blackberry habanero margarita was the best margarita that they've ever had in their lives. Came in just to try it! It was absolutely horrible-- so sour that my friend and I both couldn't take more than a sip or two. The bartender added club soda, which made it somewhat bearable. Training should be consistent between bartenders. My friend and I ordered the goat cheese & arugula pizza. The crust, which is usually the worst part of the pizza-- was excellent! The rest of the pizza? Extremely underwhelming. It was pretty much all arugula, and zero toppings. We had about three dime sized pieces of goat cheese on the entire pizza, and it was topped with so much arugula that it looked like a salad. There were only 4 small dates on the entire pizza. If they weren't so skimpy on everything, it would've been really good, but you can tell that this place is on a budget and taking it out on the consumer. Only reason I'm giving three stars is because the bartender was really sweet & attentive, even though she butchered our drinks. I don't plan on going back and it's not worth the prices that they charge.

    have been wanting to try this place every since they replaced it, before it was california pizza kitchen. the service was good, the food came out fast, the place wall chill. nothing too special about this place but i recommend for trying!

    Menu as of 8/11/24

    Doughbird is a fantastic addition to the Green Hills dining scene adding a solid menu of pizzas, sandwiches, salads and course rotisserie chicken dishes! In addition to the tasty food, the interior has great vibes with lots of wood and industrial/art chic fixtures, leather seating, a beautiful bar and lots of perfectly planted and manicured greenery. Now, down to why we flew in to Doughbird, pun intended...we came for the dough, not the bird this time. A regular Spicy Hawaiian and Detroit Style Sausage and Mushroom were the choices and neither disappointed. Both were delicious, but the Detroit-style took it home, at least for me. Perfectly crispy edges, gooey cheese, and hearty toppings without being too dense and overwhelming. The Spicy Hawaiian had a great balance of sweet and heat, with just enough kick to make you raise an eyebrow. Pricing for the pies is a bit high for the size, but I chalked it up to the fresh and well mapped out toppings and cheese...at least that is what I tell myself. We also enjoyed a couple of cocktails. The Bourbon and Bells was it! I had the summer sangria was great, looking forward to additional seasonal drinks as well. If you're familiar with this area, you know parking can be a pain, so the attached garage is definitely a plus. Service was friendly, though a bit slower than expected. We visited during off-peak hours and still had a wait, which was a little surprising. Overall, we really enjoyed Doughbird and are glad to have a location here in Nashville. Vibe was great, relaxed but modern and playful feel that makes it great for a casual meal or cocktail, or date spot.

    Food is so good!! Their chicken is wonderful. Only critique is my family and I sat near the the kitchen and could hear the manager yelling almost the entire time. Otherwise was a great experience and will be back!

    Acoustics bounce a bit in this restaurant
    Hana O.

    This is located at a nice, upscale outdoor mall. It's right next to Anthropologie. The restaurant is across the street from the cafe where Taylor Swift used to play as a teen. Doughbird is quite popular, especially for large groups. It took a while for us to get our menus, as well as to get our food. The fried chicken I got had the perfect crunch and not oily or heavy. I felt the service was a bit slow, even though we went for an early dinner around 5pm. The waitress only came by once to refill our water. The high ceilings, hardwood floors, large windows and wood chairs made the acoustics horrible. It was very hard to hear the conversation from the person sitting 2 chairs away from me. We were a party of 5 so it wasn't a big table. I probably would go back but wouldn't be my go-to place.

    Late lunch near Green Hills Mall. We tried True Food Kitchen. Parking was a bit interesting, but…read morethe restaurant is very open, clean and inviting. Tried the Guac as a starter and it was very good. They added pickled jalapeño and vinegar tomatoes on the side. It truly complemented the flavor. My wife ate it, and she is not a huge Guac fan; so that says a lot for the Guac. Early evening Entrees were chicken parm and I had buffalo chicken sandwiches with fries. House made pickles on the sandwich were ok. Apple slaw was a good compliment to the buffalo chicken. Looks like they used the same breaded chicken that they use on the chicken parm for the buffalo chicken sandwich. Fries were good. Some very very hard and overcooked. Chicken parm was cooked well and the pasta was cooked well. One of my biggest pet peeves when out to dinner anywhere is keeping the drinks filled. No matter what it is, soda, tea, etc. That does not happen here. That would be my only negative take from this place. Other than that, we would definitely suggest checking out this place for lunch/brunch or dinner. They do have live music at night as well if that is your cup of tea. Pricing is a bit higher than some, so be aware that you may pay a little more to eat here, but the food is fresh and the menu is health conscious.

    I've been dining at this location since it opened many years ago, and I think that fact matters…read more This used to be one of my favorite restaurants. The food was fresh, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the service was reliable. It felt like a place that took pride in what it did. Over the years, I've watched that standard steadily decline. The facility itself shows signs of neglect. The dining room and patio no longer reflect the quality image the brand promotes. Service has become inconsistent, staff turnover appears high, menu knowledge is often lacking, and food quality varies significantly from visit to visit. The most disappointing change has been the food. Dishes that were once simple and ingredient focused now feel altered, reduced, or unnecessarily substituted. The restaurant's original identity was built on fresh, recognizable ingredients. That identity feels increasingly difficult to find. What concerns me most is that none of these issues appear new. They feel systemic and long standing. That suggests either leadership is unaware of the problems or has chosen to accept them. I'm not angry. I'm disappointed. As a longtime customer, I've reached the point where I no longer recommend this location and rarely choose to visit it. In a market with more dining options than ever, that's not a decision I make lightly. If someone from management or corporate reads this, understand that this review is not coming from a customer who had one bad experience. It's coming from someone who remembers how good this restaurant once was and can clearly see how far it has fallen. Whether that matters is up to you.

Blackened salmon - I'm always skeptical of seafood in a cafeteria setting, but I had a bite of my friend's dish and this was perfectly cooked. Fried Chicken - crispy skin, tender meat, well seasoned. Turnip Greens - flavorful, not mushy Cornbread - solid Desserts - Chess Pie and Pecan Pie - sweet, but as expected. Pretty good Cauliflower hash - very cheesy, could pass for potato hashbrowns but a little drier. It was ok. Creamed corn - way too sweet for my preference Arnold's is a fun time.
