3.9 stars.... preposterous! This was probably the most fantastic meal I've had in a while. maybe a bit of the vacation magic helped a bit but. Fantastic service, food, and atmosphere. I was also absolutely blown away by dessert. The pâtissier is such a cheerful, nice, and incredibly talented person. Don't skip dessert. I sat at the bar as I was dining alone. Adam and Kevin were amazing. They knew every single item on the menu pretty much. and when I really think about it.... there were only two items on the menu that really stood out to me so I guess they really did the heavy lifting of the meal with their knowledge of each specific ingredient that I had questions about. I told them that I came directly from Jack Daniel's distillery in Lynchburg and they told me that the pork that they use in the Fried Carolina Gold app and Bear Creek Heritage Pork is raised with the spent grain from Jack Daniel's which I think is pretty cool to up-cycle ingredients. They immediately sold me on those dishes. Everything I got: *Give Up The Ghost (cocktail pls reference pic of menu for ingredients) *Husk Old-Fashioned (cocktail) *Late Embers Sunchoke Liqueur *Ritual Sister Smoked Pineapple Liqueur *Murder Point Oysters on the half shell *Fried Carolina Gold Rice *Bear Creek Heritage Pork *Noble Spring Chereve Mousse Both cocktails that I got were amazingly crafted but I think I go about picking cocktails the wrong way... I tend to see a few ingredients that catch my eye but then when they're not front and center I get a little disappointed? I recall enjoying the give up the ghost but It wasn't jasmine-y or yuzu-ey enough for me. It was probably really well balanced but not entirely memorable. The Husk Old Fashioned was probably a really well crafted old fashioned... maybe the best old fashioned i've ever had, but I think maybe the food just kinda out shined it / stole the spotlight. Both Liqueurs that I tried blew me away... the sunchoke was super interesting and the smoked pineapple was actually really good. Really thankful that I got to try them. The murder point oysters were okay... habanada? Is apparently a habanero bred without the heat. I wished the flavor was a little stronger on that. I guess I probably could have asked for extra sauce but didn't think about it... they probably would have accommodated too. Dang it. I also didn't really feel like the juniper came through. The carolina gold was GOLD. Holy heck, was not expecting the pork belly to be a juicy, silky, smooth, soft as sin piece of pork. It felt like.... Just pure pork fat honestly. But it was heavenly. Like... the most perfectly sous vided piece of fat. Idk if it's just my imagination or if i'm misremembering but the pork itself was cold? While the carolina gold.... Croquette? Not sure what to call it. Was piping hot. The contrast was spectacular. The sweet and spicy from the BBQ sauce and pepper jelly did wonders and idk. It really just hit. I'm not even sure why. Maybe because I wanted to like the dish because of the Jack Daniels connection. Probably because of all the contrasting sensations and textures + the crunch of the deep fried rice. Despite that, I wasn't a big fan of the pork cutlet kinda thing. The base came with some kale pesto and some charred kale... golden beets, topped with a macha salsa and some peanuts. I think that the kale pesto kinda threw off the dish and didn't quite work the way it was envisioned perhaps. The pork itself.... Was leagues below the previous dish. It's hard to imagine it came from the same hog or even same farm? I typically like macha... and don't get me wrong, this sauce was good but perhaps just wasn't feeling it with the pesto. THE DESSERT. I almost passed on this but i'm SO GLAD I DIDN'T. Noble Spring Chereve Mousse with maple, chestnut, and compressed pear. I can't stop talking about this dish. I took the first spoonful with the first pear and I felt like I was shot to heaven. It was the juiciest, most surreal bite of fruit that I've ever felt in my life. There was a crunch that felt like maybe it was slightly frozen but also bursting with juices like... crunchy boba almost or something idk wtf. I was prepared not to enjoy it as I'm not the biggest fan of chevre but it was balanced perfectly with the chestnut. Not too tart. Not too sweet. The maple granola? Ish on top provided a nice extra, different type of crunch. Actually not sweet at all. The granola complemented it perfectly by serving as the sweetener. I thought the dish only came with five pieces of pear. Imagine my joy when I dug deeper into the bowl and there was plenty. Good lord. I got the faintest hint of jasmine? From the pear... or something. I didn't know what it was but I got a chance to speak to pastry afterwards and she told me she used apple cider vinegar, OJ, and.... Orange blossom extract? Genius. I love that the menus are DATED....... I have an entire two more paragraphs but I fear I'm over the 5000 character limit. read more

Husk is set inside an old historic house with tables in multiple rooms -- such a cute and cozy vibe. The place felt lively and fun, and there's also a small outdoor patio that fills up quickly. We ended up sitting at the bar (which we had reserved). Btw, they have a small complimentary parking lot next door plus a paid lot across the street, which is convenient. I had heard so much hype about the food, but for me it didn't totally live up to it. The biscuits were overly salty and not something I wanted to finish. The cold shrimp with blood orange was an interesting combo that I surprisingly liked. I ordered the steak and while it was cooked perfectly, the portion felt small for the price. It also came with broccolini and a really good sauce. Although our bartender/server was super attentive and friendly, it did take a very long time for our entrées to come out. He even had to go check on them and ended up bringing the food back themselves. Unfortunately, mine was honestly a little lukewarm. Overall, it was just mid for me. I wouldn't rush back, but I'd go again if someone else really wanted to try it. read more

We were excited to dine at Husk after seeing so many great reviews and recommendations from food influencers. Unfortunately it did not live up to the hype. I am rating it 2 stars instead of one because the service was courteous and attentive and we enjoyed the drinks, appetizers and the cheddar biscuit. The main entrees were lacking. The pork was so dry and the flavor profile did not seem to go well with this dish. I never send food back but I just could not justify paying for a dish that I would not enjoy. My friend's steak was such a small portion (although she said she enjoyed it). They did offer to switch out the pork (with some side-eye, lol), so I ordered the shrimp and grits; which were mediocre; it had pickles in it, which gave it an odd flavor; but I was expecting something more traditional. I appreciate their twist on the farm to table element, but it just did not work for me. The chocolate cake dessert was interesting; the cake, which is the highlight of the dish was dry and would have been better if it was served with ice cream instead of whipped cream. The restaurant has a nice, energetic lively ambiance and a great menu selection, but overall fell short with consideration to the price and portion sizes. read more

Outstanding! From the atmosphere to the food and great service, this is one of the best restaurants I've been to. The restaurant is in a remodeled house and is very charming. We had a reservation and were greeted by the friendly hostess and promptly seated. Our server was friendly and attentive. Cocktails were great. We had the Fried Carolina Gold Rice appetizer which was delicious. We both ordered the chicken dish which was juicy and had a nice sauce. The cornbread was also excellent. Overall a fantastic restaurant and I would highly recommend Husk. read more

Husk was recommended to me by some local folks while I was staying in Nashville. First- the property is a beauty and sets the tone for some traditional yet elevated southern fare. I had the lettuce salad which was SO fresh, the leaves really didn't need much else! I had to have the biscuits, which came with a serving of 2 and were the perfect savory accompaniment to my salad. Although they did wax a bit salty toward the end. The chocolate crumb cake with banana ganache was a rich reward for finding this local gem. But : as much as I've not been an acolyte of the old fashioned, husk's version with sorghum instead of simple syrup deserves an award! There's a very impressive wine list as well. Service from Tieza at the bar was wonderful. Ambience is southern laid back elegance and there is parking on site. Walk off some calories in the lovely hilltop neighborhood afterwards. read more

That flounder crudo! Order that! It's Delicate. Very clean. I felt like I was in a cooking show confessional. And the winter greens showed up ready to prove vegetables can, in fact, be a main. This spot is thoughtful and just upscale. A very respectable culinary moment. Service spectacular and high energy. read more

Husk - Southern Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

We stopped in for dinner on November 2, 2025--our first visit to Husk's Nashville location. We made a point to dine here after having an exceptional meal at their Charleston, South Carolina location a few years ago. This visit absolutely lived up to expectations. The restaurant is beautifully set in a restored 1880s-era home in the historic Rutledge neighborhood. We shared a few dishes: the Yellowfin tuna, Pimento Cheese, and Jerk Shrimp & Grits. The crisps paired with the pimento cheese were a perfect bite, the tuna was light and flavorful, and the shrimp and grits brought a rich, savory depth. Our server struck the perfect balance: friendly and attentive. Despite how busy the restaurant was, she checked in at just the right intervals, and we never felt like we were waiting on anything. Her timing and professionalism were top notch. Husk Nashville is now firmly on our must-visit list. If you haven't been, it's definitely worth checking out! read more

Very yummy and fresh!! The vibe here is so cool. The old house turned restaurant feels historic and haunted but in a good way. Like a ghost would leave you a quarter or a flower or something charming. The dim lights make it intimate and sweet and didn't fully assure me the place wasn't haunted but that's because I'm not superstitious, but I am a little stitious. Food was very fresh and yummo. We got swordfish, shrimp and grits, salad, plate of vegetables, and cornbread. I've never had swordfish and was really surprised by how much I loved it! It was very firm chicken like texture, which is a good thing to me. Flaky fish is scary to me. Hi, I'm Alyssa and I have a lot of fear. I'm also scared of bugs, birds, darkness, death, the cold, needles, blood, and trees. Don't worry, I have a standing appointment with my therapist to talk through most of them. The only negative I have, and it's not even a negative it's more of a comment, the way the acoustics of the space are there's a constant undertow of murmuring from each room. I didn't find it bad at all but if you are dining with older companions who are starting to become hard of hearing like I was, you may want to take note of that and either go earlier when it's not so busy and therefore quieter or move to a outskirt room vs a central one. My mom makes my dad wear AirPods to tune out the background noise but you have options. If you want a fresh, healthy meal in a cool spot go here!! read more

Husk is a beautiful, eclectic restaurant that serves modern southern food with flair. It was our first time going and we booked a reservation with Resy. Their menu changes daily. The ambiance was nice. There was cute little flowers on the table with a unique lamp. Our waitress was Tara. She was so kind and sweet. She was extremely knowledgeable on the menu and recommended some great options. We ended up sharing the cheddar biscuits, a plate of vegetables, Alabama shrimp, steak, Carolina gold rice, and Mississippi catfish. We also ordered a Shiso High and a classic Amaretto Sour for our drinks. Loves: - the steak was perfectly done and super yummy. It is sold at market price and was a bit expensive but it was my favorite - Amaretto sour was superb Likes but not a must: - Alabama shrimp. It had a bit of spice so it wouldn't work with everyone's palate -Carolina fried rice. It was very unique. I'm not a fan of sweet appetizers so that was a new one for me -Cheddar biscuits -Mississippi catfish. It was their take on pan fried fish and grits. Definitely would not get again: -a plate of vegetables read more

Visited the Husk in Charleston SC on a weekend trip; among many meals we had it emerged as our favorite. So when we found out there is a Husk in Nashville, we booked dinner right away. The feel and quality is just as wonderful here. The location somehow balances historic, modern and fresh with homey, rustic and welcoming. The polished, friendly and professional staff emits a vibe of authentic pride in the quality of the menu, food and experience. The menu is streamlined, focused on local and seasonal, and there's something for everyone. Not cheap, but well worth the price. The two of us each had two cocktails, a starter and main course- $220 before tip. We loved every bite; highly recommend the oysters, cheddar biscuits, and their take on shrimp and grits. Everything is made on premises, and beautifully presented. Husk is a winner read more

Hard walls, glass, no ambiance apart from lovely interior hardscape. , noisy. Next table was close with young child and baby that seemed good, but might not have been at any moment. Three tables away, a 1/2 dressed woman got up and sat on her partner's lap every half hour, and deep kissed and lap danced management did not seem bothered, and I'm too old to do anything but see it as a ridiculous display. Our dining companions were filming which seemed to evoke a reaction from him, though I don't know why. Biscuits were good. I asked for jam with the butter, and no prob. Butter bean side, appeared to be limas, jazzed up with kale and herbs, wouldn't order again. One order of peas by companion, mostly mushy peas, but not completely. I liked better than butter beans. I can't remember what i ordered for main (how sad) but hubby ordered catfish which came with country ham bits and virtual crabmeat. Catfish was very good. Service was good, timely, and restaurant was a comfortable walk from Omni. Lovely exterior, modern pleasant look inside, seated quickly, did not feel rushed. Not a bad experience, just less than neutral. read more

I loved the service where the waiter went into the history of the incredible building that this restaurant is in. Very historic. Great way to start off the evening as some of my closest friends got to spend a lot of time together. The food was truly spectacular. We ordered tons of dishes to try pretty much everything on the menu and it was amazing. How one dish after the other was spectacular. The bar was also a lot of fun and the husk Manhattan was wonderful. Loved the trout, the hush puppies, the hummus with crab, the dessert, the pork loin, everything. read more

We came here to celebrate a special occasion and the sweet staff gave us a personalized menu that had our anniversary on it! The food was plentiful and so so decadent.

Came to Husk to celebrate an anniversary with my always picky but otherwise lovely wife. I had been wanting to bring her here for years but rotating seasonal menus often are not Sarah approved so I had her peep the menu weeks in advance & she gave it the thumbs up finally! We came hungry & ordered a variety of things as recommended by our stellar server Matt, who is a seasoned Nashville food scene veteran & made our visit all the more wonderful. We started with the savory cream puff, biscuits, & ham. For our mains we went with the Pork, chicken, & vegetable plate. Everything was delicious & Matt made sure to mention how it was all crafted for us as he dropped it off. The vegetable plate was honestly the most surprising & prob favorite item of ours as it was so varied. We didn't even have room to order dessert & wound up taking some leftovers home. All in all, a great dinner for a special occasion & I look forward to coming back more often now that Husk has helped to soften my wife's hard picky eating heart. read more

My wife and I flew into Nashville to visit our daughters and their families on Mother's Day. I chose Husk for the first time with the expectation to have a fresh, farm to table experience. I had a last minute change to our reservation the day before and the staff was very accommodating. When we arrived at 4:50 pm it was pouring rain and we were crammed in the entryway with several other people. At 4:55 there was no more standing room, and unfortunately the the receptionist insisted she could not seat anyone until 5pm when they "open." Once seated, we saw the restaurant was clean and appeared well prepared for service. We had a party of 8 with 2 small children. Our server was patient and accommodating. When I dine, ambiance & service are nice finishings, but I will often excuse either or both when the food is really good. The food will usually determine whether I go back or not. It's not in this case! We ordered 5 small plates to share and each person ordered separate entree. I would break down each app and entree but it will be easier just to summarize. The food across the board was either way over salted or had no flavor at all. My whole party felt the same, with one exception, the pimento cheese was very good. For example, the pork dish pictured on the blue plate, was over salted and the chimichurri was so overpowering I couldn't even taste the pork, even after I scraped the chimichurri off. Other than the Bass, the portions were smaller than I expected as well. Small portions, especially the Apps, and poor flavor. Food was overall subpar and did not meet our expectations, especially for what we believed was a high end dining experience. To be completely fair, I did not bring our concerns about the food to staff, so I did not allow them to correct anything. I typically will not return food to a kitchen, nor do I complain to management. For me it is like a first impression, you get one shot and an impression is made. For Husk, I will pass, no thank you. read more

Everything about this experience was special, detail-oriented and on point. It's so refreshing to encounter people who care and who bring it! From the moment we stepped in, we were greeted warmly and seated promptly. Our server was cordial and the perfect mix of being conversational without being intrusive. All aspects of the service were stellar. Courses served in perfect timing, things were brought without ever having to ask, and there was incredible attention paid to the diners. The food is equally stellar. From crafted cocktails to appetizers (alligator-pork meatballs and pigs' ears lettuce wraps), mains (trout and bass) and the vegetable sides, everything had that wow factor -- my husband and I were sharing bites constantly because it was all so delicious. It's been over a week now and that trout and a few of those vegetable sides are still making my mouth water. Is it pricey? Without a doubt, but it's an experience we won't soon forget. When I think of all the money I've spent in mediocre joints over the years, I realized that Husk is worth every single penny of that final bill. If you are visiting Nashville or live there and haven't been yet, go, you won't regret it. read more

Wow! It's uncommon that a restaurant lives up to its' hype. But THIS place has got it going on!! The restaurant is set in a glorious converted historic 1880's home near downtown. Ambiance is cool and eclectic with a laid-back yet upscale vibe. Just walking in gets your culinary juices flowing. Service is great. Our server was charming, casual and professional. Meal was timed perfectly, everything served as ordered. We weren't rushed, nor had time to grow impatient. Started with cheddar biscuits and a beet salad appetizer. Biscuits prefect - flaky, moist and excellent slathered in butter. Beets featured quartered deep red Bulls blood beets, interspersed with slices of blood orange, served atop orange blossom cream and adorned with mint. A refreshing combination; delicious. I tried the beef. Sliced medallions of filet, prepared perfectly medium rare (as ordered). The meat is plated artfully around a pool of squash ketchup and burnt garlic, next to grit panisse (thick logs of grits deep fried like fries). Definitely an elevated steak offering, with unique and delicious accessories. Also tried the pork. Slices of juicy flavorful pork loin served atop a mound of risotto-like farro and squash combo and topped with sautéed kale. An excellent combination of complementary flavors. A satisfying flavor to every bite. Lastly tried dark chocolate crumb cake. Nothing really cake-like about this one, but is is a scrumptious combination of banana/black walnut filling between thin planks of rich dark chocolate. It's not inexpensive, but absolutely worth the experience. Recommended! read more

We were in town for a concert and made it a point to have a dinner at Husk. This is my second visit to a Husk, but first time dining. I had a great bar experience at the Savannah location years ago and vowed to myself that I would eventually eat at Husk. It was well-worth the wait. This location is a converted mansion which adds a sense of class to the ambiance. Service was exquisite as expected. They were particularly friendly with my daughter which always makes for a better experience when she gets the attention she craves. We tried: + Pig Ears: A lettuce wrap that is perfectly executed. The texture was surprisingly tender. I expected a cartilaginous crunch that might not be for everyone. It is not that. Do NOT hesitate to try this dish! + Fromage Cream Puff: I kinda wish this was served bite-sized. However, the flavors were nice. + Quail: We don't see quail on many menus. It was nice to have something different. Honestly, not a standout for me. But wasn't bad. + drinks: I don't remember what I ordered. I saw a drink that was apparently on their brunch menu. They were able to serve it to me anyway. However, the Strange Brew was interesting. Like a malted espresso martini? I'm so glad to have finally eaten at a Husk location. A return would certainly be welcome the next time I'm in town. read more

The entree - the catfish was one of the best fish dishes I have ever had. The appetizers were just okay - we had ribs, tartar and rice things with pork belly. Desert was good - we had the tart and the chocolate cake. The waiter said they had the best bartender in Nashville and while the drinks were unique they were pre-batched and the matcha one I ordered wasn't even green in color and was too sweet even though the waiter said their drinks are all balanced and none are sweet. The service was alright not great. I would for sure go back for the catfish, I would stick with wine and hope for a different server. Oh and the building itself is cool - a historic building / house. read more

Husk - Catfish entree - Southern Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

I don't typically leave negative reviews, but our experience at Husk Nashville was disappointing enough to warrant one--especially given the reputation and price point. I flew into Nashville for less than 24 hours to celebrate my best friend of 37 years, and we had reserved the Stables private room for dinner. To start, dinner itself was lovely--the space is beautiful, and the meal met expectations. Unfortunately, everything after dinner completely changed the tone of the evening. After finishing, about 10 of us (a group of 40-year-old women, not a rowdy crowd) wanted to enjoy one final drink together. We were told the bar in the Stables was closing but that we could move inside to the main restaurant bar. When we got there, the bar was essentially empty--aside from three guests seated at one end. Shortly after we ordered drinks, a manager approached us and told us to "keep it down" because other guests were trying to enjoy a relaxing evening. This was surprising, as we were simply talking and catching up--nothing excessive or disruptive. About 15 minutes later, the same manager returned and asked us to leave the bar area altogether and go outside due to noise. To be clear: this was around 9:30-10:00 PM on a Saturday night. As we were leaving, the three guests at the bar came outside and told us that they had not been bothered by us at all--and that the staff had repeatedly checked with them about our group. The entire situation left us feeling unwelcome and, frankly, like the restaurant was more interested in closing early than accommodating paying guests who had just hosted a private dinner on-site. It's a shame, because the dinner itself was great--but hospitality is about the full experience, not just the food. And in this case, the way we were handled after dinner completely overshadowed what should have been a special night. I expected much more from a restaurant of this caliber. read more

Husk had a lot of good and a few not so good for me that balances out the score. First of all, the restaurant is gorgeous inside. They successfully nailed the vibe they were going for perfectly and it was very comfortable. Our servers were attentive and friendly as well, no issues there. we got biscuits and vegetables to share, both were good. Highly recommend the peppers. I had the kentuckyaki glazed pig ear lettuce wraps. This item was fantastic and I would recommend anyone try it. I'd never had anything like pig ears before so if you're a little adventurous, give it a try. For main, I had the expesive ribeye steak. At the time of visit it was $190. I got it done rare. When it came out, it was obviously a tremendous amount of food, more than one person can realistically eat on its own. I shared about 1/3 of it to the rest of the people at my table to try. I had some issues with the steak. I don't know for sure, but if I had to guess, I think it was cooked sous vide and seared. But it was overdone for rare (in my opinion) and it didn't have a strong crust from the sear. The flavor was very, very mild. On one hand, the cuts were great with lots of fat, but due to the way it was cooked it didn't have fantastic texture in the mouth. I polled the others at my table and they agreed. For drinks, we got the gin punch which I wasn't a huge fan of, but the beer I ordered after was great. Overall I was pretty disappointed by the steak which dampened the experience for me, but the rest was so good that I still give 4 stars. read more

Had a lorge group for my dad's bday while visiting Nashville. We got a very early reservation to accommodate such a big group. It was raining cats and dogs but it seemed very cute from the outside. The inside was made up of several rooms with different amounts of groups. I wasn't able to get pics of everything but hats off to the beef tartar and the gulf swordfish. The only let down was the veggie plate. Was a little underwhelming. We interacted with lots of different people but everyone was welcoming and warm. With drinks and desserts it came out to a little bit over a 100$/person which seemed pretty standard for pricing, but I don't live in Nashville. 8/10 would recommend. read more

The last time I was here it was did lunch with a coworker and unbeknownst I got engaged that night, so this place is special to me just for that little memory.

It was fried a bit too hard for my liking but the fish inside was delicious. I will be back and won't wait so long next time. read more

I love this place. I've been to the Charleston and Savannah locations, so naturally I had to come here as well. We came to brunch before driving back home and it did not disappoint. We ordered the biscuits and gravy and the hummingbird cake from the first courses. These were probably the best biscuits and gravy I've ever had. The hummingbird cake was better as a dessert and was delicious. I ordered their breakfast plate and I was blown away. How they transform scrambled eggs and had browns is mind blowing. The flavor explosions were amazing. My husband got the Johnny cakes and they were amazing too, in the middle a delicious sausage patty and egg on top. I love that the menu is always changing based on available ingredients. We will of course be back! read more

Husk, considered one of the most creative & innovative restaurants of Nashville. Husk is located in a landmark building in downtown Nashville. Chef Ben Norton was nominated for the James Beard Award. His food is sourced locally from nearby farms. It incorporates the flavors & tastes from the South & around the world. "Screaming Peanuts" - a manhattan variation featuring HUSK single barrel picks from willett distillery in bardstown, ky Delicious drink, well made. A bit too sweet. Grade: B bear creek beef tartare*, crawfish xo, banana pepper, mint. A beautiful dish to look at. A savory dish with a kick of spicy heat.

Grade: A Buttermilk cheddar biscuits. Home cocking to its finest. Serves with butter and rock salt. Grade B a plate of southern vegetables. This was another highlight of the meal. A preparation of five different dishes created with veggies from local farms. Each dish was prepared by the different parts of the kitchen.

I came here recently with a small group and thoroughly enjoyed my experience! The restaurant was very well-decorated and contemporary inside. Felt clean, bright, and upscale. The service was also extremely attentive, my table place was always wiped, my drink always filled, and we were checked on just the right amount of times. The food was absolutely delicious!!! Definitely the star of the show. I had the fried Johnny cakes and it was the perfect blend of sweet and savory breakfast. The steak and blue cheese dish was also very yummy topped with fresh baby tomatoes. The pimento cheese starter we had tasted very fresh and creamy, and the chips we were served were very crunchy and well salted. The breakfast plate had the best scrambled eggs I've ever had, perfectly creamy; also its hashbrowns and bacon were mouthwatering. The desserts were honestly just decent to me. The hummingbird cake tasted like a plain banana bread with cream cheese frosting, the peanut butter blondie was more marshmallow whipped cream than peanut butter, and the root beer float was average. Still, no complaints at all in the food department. Overall: amazing spot for a nicer brunch with family and friends if you're looking for fantastic food and a great atmosphere!! Looking forward to returning. Bonus- the music played there was very relaxing chill pop and R&B which added to the cool environment!! read more

I honestly feel scammed after eating here. We ordered a salad that was supposed to include heirloom tomatoes -- instead, we got half of one cherry tomato on the entire plate. Not even a full tomato, and definitely not heirloom. Then came the steak, which the menu said was served with okra. It arrived with one and a half okra. That was it. The food descriptions on the menu are completely misleading, and the portions are ridiculous for the price. I've eaten all over the world and have never experienced anything like this. Extremely disappointing and not worth the money. read more

The sauce that came with it was perfection. The Cabernet that they have was one of the best glasses of wine I've had in a while. Only thing I will say is they did not have that many options as far as dinner. My fiancé got the strip steak which was really good. I got the pork which was also amazing. Overall really good experience. The 3.5 is just because we spent $250 and still left hungry. Other than that really cool place. read more

I can't believe I'm giving Husk a two star review. I was excited to visit Husk during a trip to Nashville - I've been to the SC location long ago and remembered I had a spectacular experience. However, everything I had was a meh or I would never order it again. Drinks: I had the mocktail with pomegranate and I honestly didn't take more than a few sips. It had a strange and sharp aftertaste I couldn't stand. Apps: Buttermilk biscuit - it was somehow so dry I literally almost choked on it. I was at a business dinner and grabbed my colleague because it was stuck in my throat and I couldn't breathe. I had to wash it down with water. The same happened to another colleague at dinner. Beets with cheese - pretty good Spring salad with yogurt - my favorite thing on the menu but very simple dish. Fromage blanc cream puff - puff was dry, the cheese taste was overwhelming in not a good way. I had the Cherokee sea bass and it also had a strange after taste. The potatoes weren't soft and I didn't touch them. The desserts were shoofly pie ice cream and dark chocolate crumb cake. The ice cream was a complete miss while the cake had too much extremely sweet banana. I def won't be back. read more

Eating at Husk was a definite must for our trip to Nashville, mostly because it is farm to table. Husk is housed in a historic home from the 1880s that was once the home of the mayor of Nashville. That being said, the set up and the flow was a bit untraditional as one would expect in traditional restaurants. The dining areas were off downstairs, with the bar also being downstairs. A highlight is the open kitchen before you head to the seating downstairs. I find the balance of order and chaos of the kitchen with staff in their lily whites so enthralling. We sat at the bar, as it was hard to secure a table a week ahead. The service was attentive, friendly, well versed in the menu offerings. We had the Kentuckyaki Glazed Pig Ears as an appetizer and Bucksnort Trout and the Bear Creek Heritage Pork for mains entrees. For dessert, we had the coffee custard and lavender semifreddo. We loved the flavour and texture of the pig ears but wished there was a bit more on our lettuce wraps. Out of the appetizers the two of us who got the heritage pork wished that we for the trout. While the pork was juicy, well seasoned with the perfect amount of fat, the mashed butter beans left much to be desired in texture and flavour. The trout was the gift that kept on giving with the hearty portion and it was great with the rice. Out of the two desserts we would definitely have the coffee custard again. Orange, chocolate and coffee is a fantastic combination. All in all we had a wonderful experience and would definitely return if the wind blows us to Nashville again. I could see this place getting Michelin nods, if there was a Michelin system in Nashville. read more

What a great spot to try local cuisine. They use all local ingredients and you can tell it's of good quality. It's located in a historic home and it is decorated perfectly. The staff was very accommodating, especially with my allergies. They made sure that I could eat everything and they made accommodations if not. The menu is very eclectic but absolutely delicious. It was not released to see, but we were able to see previous days to get an idea. You definitely have to be open to trying new things going to this spot. The food was spectacular. I think my favorite part was the dessert, the peanut butter blondie. It was the most perfect sweet ending. I tried the trout because I kept seeing it on menus, and it was very good, not super fishy. You will definitely pay a premium price to come here. The food averages around $30 a plate. The drinks are also fairly expensive. It's a great experience with local cuisine and local flavors. I'd highly recommend it. read more

A beautiful setting not too far from the downtown area lies Husk. Before you enter you will see an amazing tree that sets the stage for your dining experience. The entire staff is so friendly and knowledgeable about the food and offer wonderful suggestions. We went for brunch. I started with a Mimosa flight which was so beautiful to look at and so yummy to sip on. It was fun to sip and taste a bit of food with each of the flavors which were, Mint Shrub, Marigold-Honey Shrub, Plum-Sage Shrub. We had the hummingbird banana bread with a smoked cream cheese and a delicious fruit compote. We had a salad with autumn lettuces, fennel, turmeric, blossoms, benne. It was amazing. They pickled the fennel which was brilliant. We had the breakfast plate, scrambled egg*, hashbrown, bacon, biscuit. The eggs were off the hook. They were mixed with cheddar cheese and a very lite hot spice. The hash browns had a smoky flavor which was so pleasing. The tennessee mushroom & grits, farm egg and cilantro was off the charts. Simply the best. Go and enjoy. Totally worth it. They have outside dining as well. read more

What a great brunch spot (and I'm sure dinner too)! FOOD: spot on. Every bite is crafted and incredible. A perfectly filling and satisfying meal. I ordered the egg breakfast (I forget its official name but it came with eggs, bacon, hash brown, and biscuit). Every item was just so good. Their brewed iced tea was also great. SERVICE: very communicative and professional. They were even willing to help make a menu item dairy free for dietary reasons. AMBIANCE: since there aren't so many tables, the feel is very exclusive. The large beautiful chandeliers, garden out the window, and large ceiling and wall windows create an open yet elegant vibe. PARKING: There appears to be street parking nearby but we walked there. read more

Outstanding food. Will definitely be back. Corn bread is amazing and drinks are amazing too.

Good: Plenty of parking. Service was good, prompt and attentive. Atmosphere was great! Kids menu was very reasonable and food actually looked delicious, good kids portions. The quail and catfish was cooked to perfection. Bad: Food is very mediocre and pretentious. The pig ear appetizer was probably the best part but even that was just so so. They use fancy words to describe items on the menu and it turned out to be just sweet potato casserole (not even an amazing one at that). Both mine and my husband's dish was spicy, which was not indicated on the menu. The menu also lists more items under the meal that makes you expect more, e.g. the catfish listed clams and kale and whatnot, but when the meal arrived, it was a catfish fillet on top of a plate of soup with morsels of kale and shavings of clam, so basically just a cat fish fillet.. for almost $50. I wish I had taken a photo of it. We regret wasting time and money here. read more

Husk - quail and the sweet potatoe casserole in the back. - Southern Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

I came here for dinner with a large party. Husk is located in a historic home transformed into a restaurant. Their menu can be very intimidating as almost all the things listed I didn't know what they were so I had to google them, but everything was delicious. We really loved all the food we ordered. We tried a couple of the appetizers, all were delicious. I tried their newest dish - trout with grits, mushrooms, and peanuts. It was very delicious. The portions are huge here you can easily split one with another person. I didn't try any of the their drinks, but the other guest said they were good. The one thing we didn't enjoy about our dinner here was our waiter. They had a very strong personality and it made us feel very overwhelmed with the wealth of information presented to us. They described every single menu option in full detail which we felt wasn't necessary. Also, the person told us we have to order everything all at once and was very pushy about the amount of appetizers we needed to order for the table. We waited an hour between eating our appetizers and getting our entrees. By the time we got our entrees it was almost 10 pm and most of us were too overwhelmed to eat our whole meal. For a high end restaurant the wait staff training can be improved. Other than that we really enjoyed the food and atmosphere. read more
