    Szechuan shrimp and pork dumplings
    Noelle C.

    4.5 STARS!! Earls is a great new addition to the Nashville Yards area! We'd heard great things and decided to stop by for happy hour to check it out for ourselves. The atmosphere is really nice--definitely more upscale than casual, but still comfortable and inviting. The music was at the perfect volume, and we chose to sit in the lounge, which had a more relaxed vibe. We did end up waiting a little while before anyone came over to our table, but the managers noticed right away and made sure we were taken care of. They turned the experience around quickly, and our server even surprised us with mini espresso martinis, which were absolutely delicious. The happy hour menu is EXTENSIVE, with plenty of great options. We ordered the charred corn and avocado dip, crispy rice with spicy ahi tuna, and the Szechuan shrimp and pork dumplings. The dumplings were hands down the star of the meal--a must-order! The charred corn and avocado dip were also really good, especially with the flavorful sauce and chili seasoning. The crispy rice was tasty too, although I personally wish the tuna had a little more heat. Our server, Ron, was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and gave us some great recommendations for when we come back for dinner. Even though he was clearly busy (which we totally understood!), he was friendly, attentive, and made us feel well taken care of. Overall, despite the slow start, the service recovery was excellent, the food and drinks were impressive, and we left excited to come back and try more of the menu. Earls is definitely worth checking out, especially for happy hour!

    Dustin was outstanding. Friendly, attentive, knew the menu front to back, and somehow appeared at the table every time we needed something without actually hovering. The entire staff was equally attentive and, for reasons I can't explain, looked like they were recruited from a modeling agency. The steak and sushi weren't the best I've ever had, but Dustin's service was so good that I found myself caring a lot less about that than I normally would. Great service can cover a multitude of sins, and Dustin put in a Hall of Fame performance. We'd come back just for the service alone.

    Welp! It's my 2nd visit and this solidified my rating. Stopped in for a quick HH as I did on my last visit with my brother whom they know by name. This was exactly what I like to see in a HH. Various food and beverage options. They have HH daily 3-6 and again 9- close. Very lively. First: Our bartender was Kaleb. He was very friendly and attentive. Was happy to answer any questions about the menu. I had a peach Bellini Margarita. It was very tasty. I wanted a sangria but they didn't have any. The Colada Crush was also good. For light bites: Charred Corn and Avo Dip, Birria Tacos, and Truffle Fries. Everything was good. The truffle fries were the star of the show for me. I am a truffle fry connoisseur. if it's on the menu w/ aioli, I'm ordering. Earl's has hands down surpassed my local favorite spot. (It shall remain nameless) I've never had a aioli that was so tasty. Will be back soon.

    Chilaquiles Brunch Bowl
    Taina J.

    Tried this place for brunch while I was in town, and I absolutely loved it! Our server was really funny and was great at checking on us without being over the top, and the place itself has such a cute vibe to it! I ordered the sparkling peach mojito, which was really refreshing! It was the perfect start to brunch, and it became a fan favorite at my table. For food, I ordered the chilaquiles. I truly wish they added more chips to add more crunch to the dish since it's primarily made with tortilla chips, but I still really enjoyed it with the delicious twist of the crispy potato pave at the bottom of the dish. Super filling as a result! Would love to try this place again whenever I'm back in town!

    Key lime pie

    Wow, Earls was an experience! The beautiful space has a large dining room and bars with an upscale feel throughout. Service was excellent; I was with a big group and our server handled our many annoying questions/requests with aplomb. Super friendly, patient, and prompt throughout our meal. The food was delicious. We shared a bunch of appetizers, and I enjoyed the dumplings and the random bites of sushi that appeared on my plate. The dumpling had a chewy outside and a juicy filling, really well prepared. My main was a bibimbap bowl, nothing too fancy but it was well executed. Lots of fresh ingredients, and a sauce that added a little bit of flavor, though I would have liked more spice to the dish. Still delicious and hearty, a very filling entree. The desserts were fantastic; the key lime pie wasn't a classic Joe's slice, but still packed a punch in terms of flavor. And I think the cheesecake was my favorite; again not a "classic" style but I like that they were adventurous with a bit of caramelization on the top layer. Very decadent, don't expect an airy cake here. Great experience overall!

    The food was pretty good sized portions for happy hour. I didn't care for the margarita, but the other drink was tasty. It was kind of loud, but a vibe if that's your thing. We had a very good bartender. I would go back for sure.

    Well this place took me by happy surprise. I did not expect to fall head over heels but i totally did. In just the first few weeks i tried brunch, lunch, cocktail and dinners and I have been mighty impressed every time. They got this down, all the way from the kind (!) hostesses to the last lick of that desert you did not know you wanted - you will be happy! They have a normal size menu but still manages to find the perfect dish for "everyone". I have visited with various groups and every time i have felt like this was the best restaurant pick I could have done. The ambiance is beautiful without feeling stuffy. The staff is great at helping you pick a new favorite or just be there for when you like to order another cocktail, I bet you will!

    My new fave happy hour spot I am a happy hour fiend. I work a job with a lot of flexibility, so I find myself a frequenter of happy hours. There is nary a happy hour I have not tried in this city. This one is top notch. Vibe here is so gorg. I feel like a fancy broad when I'm here, which is not real but a fun persona I play pretend with. Everyone that works here is really hot- to the point that I think they just attend model casting calls and hire from there. Special shout out to Donté for his amazing service and stellar recommendation on desserts, and Maddy (potentially madison or close I am so sorry I cannot remember) for looking like a more radiant kiernan shipka and being so attentive when my table was being difficult. Honestly I've only eaten the happy hour menu here. I'm sure everything else is divine, but I'm bougie on a budget. The crispy rice tuna is so dang good and truly the best crispy rice deal in this city. I'm obsessed with the crème brûlée cheesecake, I actually had a dream about it the other night. The drinks are so yummo and well priced during happy hour. I once accidentally got very lit here because they taste so lovely and go down so easy. I had to walk home after that one.

    The service was top tier, shoutout yo Katie! The food was good, but the ambiance and vibes are really what sets Earl's apart. It's been packed every time I've been there, and it never disappoints with great music, high energy, and good cocktails. Great for a nice dinner out, glad they're in Nashville now.

    Steak and Eggs
    Alex P.

    Earls opened in 2026 in the Nashville Yards development and presents an excellent menu of modern American food. Earls is part of a significant chain, having over 70 locations across the US and Canada. The steak and eggs for breakfast is phenomenal, where the highlight is actually not the steak or the eggs, but the thinly sliced cubes of potatoes layered and fried. A cool twist on classic breakfast potatoes that isn't just a gimmick, but actually phenomenal. Then there is the sushi selection which is equally wonderful. When it comes to ambiance, it's very pleasant inside and the highlight is arguably the patio. It's one of the very few patios that aren't facing a street, so there is a cozy and very pleasant vibe to it. On weekends, it gets quite busy and fun, so it's a great date spot. The staff are excellent and attentive. As a whole, Earls is trying to make a name for itself in the city and as of now, it's doing a remarkable job at it.

    Chips and Avocado and corn dip
    Tya P.

    The restaurant has an amazing vibe and is very trendy, reminding you of Vanderpump Rules. The Peach Bellini Margarita stole the show; it was delicious and refreshing. The food on the happy hour menu was very affordable. The staff was friendly, nice, and knowledgeable. I sat at the bar, and the only drawback is that when they get busy, it's very hard to get the server's attention, but that's understandable. I will definitely go back on my next trip, especially for the Peach Bellini.

    Steak & Crispy Rice Tuna Sushi

    Took wifey out for an early Mother's Day dinner at Earls Kitchen + Bar since she was gonna be busy Sunday with her outing with the kids. Made reservations the week before just in case Saturday night got packed. Pulled up to valet like a boss and from what I understood, if you dine there they validate parking, so that was already a win lol. Hostess greeted us right away, gave my name, and we were seated in less than 10 mins. While waiting I scanned the QR code for parking and handled that real quick. Smooth process. The vibe inside was nice. Good music, cool atmosphere, and everybody looked like they were having a good time. Our server Jeremy from Seattle was on point. Dude broke down the menu, gave recommendations, and actually made the experience fun instead of sounding robotic or pushy. Gave us time to look over the menu cause errrthang looked soooo good. Started with the Earls Old Fashioned. I'm more of a whiskey guy, but that bourbon drink was legit with the bitters. For apps we shared the Little Gem Caesar salad. Flavor was good but whoever tossed it was acting like the dressing was liquid gold lol. Still good though. Also had a half dozen raw oysters with the mignonette. Little tiny, briny, little sweet, but fresh and hit the spot. Not sure what they were wasn't specified on the menu. They weren't blue points but I could be wrong. Seems like TN has a lot of blue points shipped or raised somewhere in the region. Hard enough finding good fresh oysters in Tennessee without playing seafood roulette. Even though that seafood tower I was eyeballing looked amazing lol. Wifey got the Cajun Blackened Steak with mash and broccolini. She gave me a bite and whewww that steak was smackin! The mash with the crispy julienne potatoes made the plate look pretty lol. Who doesn't like crispy fried stuff yah feel me. Even the broccolini had great flavor and still had a crisp to it. Def would order a side of that next time. I got the 6oz steak + sushi combo with ponzu sauce and paired it with the crispy rice ahi tuna. Man...that crispy rice was SOOO good I could eat more of that! Def would recommend the crispy rice with the ahi tuna. Steak came out a little more blue than medium rare, but I'd rather have it under than over. I still cleaned the plate no doubt lol. Overall dinner was great. Staff was friendly and on point the whole time. Definitely recommend making reservations so you're not standing around hungry staring at people's plates. I'd for sure come back for dinner and wanna try their brunch too. Brunch menu looked really good and worth coming back for. Great spot if you want a fine dining feel with a casual vibe. No dress code stress either. Could be a bit pricy on what you order. But since it was a special dinner why not go all out yadadaimean. People were in gym clothes, tank tops and shorts so I was glad I didn't show up too dressy. So don't over think the attire just go with whatever you're comfortable in. No judgment zone naw mean : )

    A downstairs basement bar with speak easy vibes and moody dark lighting. This is a tequila bar --…read morebut also has a fully stocked bar. We went in the afternoon so it was pretty quiet still, but the bar tenders were friendly and helpful. And although I'm not a huge tequila fan, I was impressed with my drink. Prices were reasonable for the drinks we ordered and this bar being located on Broadway. Definitely worth a visit.

    There's a lot to like about Pushing Daises. It has a nice dark speakeasy vibe in a basement…read moreenvironment. Staff here is very nice and are keen on helping you order the right drink. There was no live music available at the time, but they did have a DJ which I thought was spinning the turntable rather well. It's my bad that I didn't also catch on that his is basically a Tequila Bar, rather than a more general craft cocktail establishment. Judging by the well stocked bar and the word of our waitress, other alcohol and their associated craft creations are available, but it's pretty much off menu and not well into our waitress' repertoire. And yes, Cinco de Mayo was just a few days away. One member of our party just wanted a soft drink, which was not possible that night as their CO2 was down. That did make me wonder whether the non-alcohol drinkers had much to chose from here. I suppose we could have then wandered over to the Redemption Bar at Chief's? Anyway, we're not Tequila Drinkers, and since other drink options appeared to be guesswork, we left towards more traditional mixed drinks (and live music) at a nearby Printers Alley bar. This was a rare night that I really wanted a craft cocktail in a smooth environment, and in the end it just wasn't the same.

    "This used to be Blend. What a spectacular collapse in standards…read more The space is still nice and the humidor selection is solid -- unfortunately, that's where the positives end. Staff at the humidor offered zero guidance or recommendations. Drinks were forgettable, and we had to fetch them ourselves from the bar like we were at a college sports pub instead of an upscale cigar lounge. Then came the cigars. We were left to cut and light them ourselves, which would've been fine if every disposable torch in the place wasn't nearly empty or completely out of butane. Nothing says 'premium lounge experience' quite like fighting for a working lighter. To top it off, the moment a large group walked in, the bartender started loudly screaming out drink orders across the room. The entire atmosphere instantly shifted from refined cigar lounge to livestock auction barn. This place is living off the reputation of what Blend used to be. If you're expecting an elevated experience, look elsewhere."

    This was the 2 nd speak easy we were taken to. Not too far walking distance to the first one…read more It is a cigar bar more like a lounge with large comfy chairs but we were taken directly to the second floor via elevator. Thankfully that room had no trace of cigar smoke. We were told in its hey day it was originally a brothel. More tales of murder. We were cautioned to stick with your party around Printers alley and how one man went off on his own and was found dead floating in the river.
