    Good food good place. Good bbq and a must of u are in Nashville great view and great food had ribs and chicken sandwich and pulled pork sandwich all pass. Good fast service.

    Another Yelper was right- it is cafeteria style where you line up and tell them what you want. Easy and efficient. Sauces/butter/napkins etc near the seating areas upstairs and downstairs. Bathrooms are single occupants rooms- upstairs and downstairs. Decent bbq offerings and good sauces!

    We stumbled upon this shop before starting our night of drinking. I love the set up! Reminded me of a cafeteria where you get to choose your meats and sides. The pulled pork and brisket were tasty. I really enjoyed the baked beans. The toast and Mac and cheese weren't anything special. There is plenty of seating upstairs! Don't forget to grab bbq sauce!

    Ribs & Smoked Chicken Plate

    Jack's Bar-B-Que came highly recommended so I had to try it out while in Nashville. The fact that I could smell the BBQ from around the corner let me know that I was heading to the right place lol. We arrived on a Saturday around 2pm and it was pretty packed but the line moved fast. I chose the Brisket plate with a side of Potato Salad & Baked Beans. Since we noticed there weren't any seats in the main dining area, they informed us that there was additional seating area either on the patio or on the second floor so we took our food and headed upstairs. The Brisket was pretty good and tender but I hate that they cut off most of the fat from my portion of meat, that's the best part. My friend ordered the Ribs & Smoked Chicken and both were delicious and seasoned very well. The Potato Salad and Baked Beans were okay but the Green Beans were delicious. Definitely check them out while in Nashville! With the location being right on Broadway, it's very convenient and you will not be disappointed!

    Tasty BBQ. I enjoyed the beef brisket plate. It came with two sides, I picked macaroni and coleslaw and I tried the chess pie...all was tasty.

    Service: Even though there is a line out the door, service is cafeteria style so pretty fast average around 15 mins. You order and seat yourself downstairs or upstairs (indoor up stair seating/ patio). There's a CCTV camera that will tell you how many seats are available upstairs so you don't have to check. 3 meat combo (Tennessee Pork Shoulder, Texas Beef Brisket, and Smoked Texas Sausage): Plenty amount of sliced meat and sides to share between two people if you want to feel about 75% full. Beef brisket: So tender and juicy. Definitely get it. Tennessee Pork Shoulder: shredded pork meat was on the drier side, no sauce. Smoked Texas Sausage: was a little bit on the saltier side, but still good and juicy. Yelp check in: Dry Rub that you can redeem the whole dry rub bottle. It's not a little powder cup that I thought it would be. Sides: Cole Slaw: Very fresh and dish is light on the mayo. Corn: Cream of corn not corn on the cob. Great side dish, on the sweeter side.

    Long standing barbecue restaurant right in the heart of downtown on Broadway. Cafe style order and pay. They offer a wide variety of meats and sides. Pork is pulled in front of you and chopped and is very good. Various barbecue sauces to choose from. They offer both soda, water, and variety of bottle beers. Plenty of seating both downstairs and upstairs. They also have single restroom for men and separately for women. Convenient and reasonable choice if you are enjoying bar hoping downtown.

    Jacks has become one of my favorite bbq spots in Nashville because of their food and service. The staff are wonderful, friendly, and crack jokes while you order. I love it. The food portions you will not be disappointed. We usually share a 2 plate combo because it is sooo much food. We chose the pulled pork and brisket. I absolutely love their brisket it is tender and moist and needs no sauce. But they do make their own bbq sauces which I recommend trying. The brisket my boyfriend absolutely loves as it has a nice bark to it and just so tender. Their Mac n cheese is delicious as it is gooey. And hands down one of the better Mac n cheeses in the area. The fried apples were so good we were fighting each other over each slice because it was subtly sweet and delicious. They also have assorted soft drinks, beers, and of course the staple southern sweet tea. I love that they have multiple levels within the restaurant. I think there are a total of four floors if you count the upstairs outside patio to sit on.

    Let's break this disaster down: Pros: 1. Cornbread was good. 2. Loved the historical items used for decorations. Cons: 1. Greasy! 2. The brisket and the ribs had no smoke flavor or marbling. 3. The service was fast but aloof. 4. The cost for four people with two meat plates, waters and a tip was $150. Yikes.

    Do what the locals do for Barbque We asked the doorman where to get bar b que before leaving and he directed us to Jacks for brisket. The place is old and traditional, on Broadway, in the thick. There was no line when we arrived but we didn't have time to time. The butcher at the counter pulled the freshly prepared brisket out like it was a cake and sliced off the delicately prepared piece of meat. It was seasoned to perfection, cooked medium with a seared ribbon of fact that enhanced the flavor. We got sides: Mac n cheese, green beans, baked beans and cucumber salad. We were happy all around. Thank you Jack for not disappointing. We also walked the location and saw multiple seating options and all clean spaces, even outside.

    Old school bbq place. You walk in, order at the counter while they put your food on the tray, and then you find a place to sit either indoor or outdoor. If it's busy, it's hard to find a place to sit. The people working there are very friendly. My only complaint is that the floor is always very slippery.

    The food is always good here, very pricey non the less delicious so be ready to pay! Service is okay I mean you stand in line, order you food, get it, pay for it and go seat yourself and serve your own drinks oh so I guess service to myself was outstanding lol! What I did not like at at was the tip part! I'm not sure how it happened but I think it's the way they add tip on the machine! But I ended up paying like $35 dollar tip which WAS NOT what I wanted to tip!!! But unfortunately I did not see until after we had already left! Maybe the cashier should ask if amount of tip is right!!! It can get somewhat loud but always a place to sit upstairs.

    For being right in the Broadway strip I'm always a little hesitant about how authentic a place like this would be. I was pleasantly surprised by the amazing smells and friendly way we were greeted by the counter staff. Sausage is amazingly juicy and the pork shoulder has loads of flavor and not dry at all. Definitely try the beans!!!!

    Real wood smoke...no fakery.

On one visit with only a few of us there our bartender disappeared for a good 20 minutes. Upon his return he was focused on everything but the 5 of us in the place until we finally had to ask to get service. The other visit everyone helped me but the actual server. Maybe this is a staffing problem, I don't know but being stuck for 20 minutes to order another drink with my meal is not acceptable. Although they had that check in my hand in under a minute and in under another minute to process. Again, super nicer people, but kind of oblivious. 2) Now let's talk about the kitchen. And I'm adding some input from the other diners because we all sat there waiting. - flavors are great, but the salt and spice level is overboard. I had the mushroom appetizer and nearly choked/coughed to death. I like heat but this was raw spice that overpowered the dish. And the salt about made my feet swell into balloons. Such a shame because the idea is great just poor execution - deviled eggs. Pass - BBQ Shrimp, sort of like the mushrooms right profile but overpowering - gumbo. Two other people had the gumbo and when I asked they said that too is just over spiced I want to like this place, but probably my last visit unless I just come for oysters. Sorry

Situated in the heart of Germantown, this modest yet distinguished establishment offers not only fare of exceptional quality, but also the singular pleasure of partaking in a communal table, where strangers are received as companions, an echo of a more gracious and convivial age.

This place was a wonderful little experience. We were greeted with the sign outside, "Enter as Strangers and Leave as Friends," which is one of my life philosophies. We got there right at opening, so we got seated first along with one of their years-long regulars. A friendly local lady who provided us with pleasant conversation until the next patrons arrived, who were seated right next to us at the same table, family style. Then the next people, then the next. Sitting, talking, passing the food around the table. It was a nice experience. And the ambiance was nice, too. Plain, wooden chairs, white tile flooring, vintage holiday decor, it was like being in a grandma's house. Very comforting. The food came out one or two dishes at a time. Everything was good enough, but it also was apparent that it was mass produced in a catering style. The basics like the bacon and ham were very good, but the fried chicken, I wouldn't take a big piece, save your stomach room for other things. Whatever other things you grab, make sure you grab a biscuit and get ahold of their homemade peach preserves. That stuff was 10/10 excellent. It's so good, they jar it and sell it at the front desk. I totally recommend. Overall, breakfast is one of the most important meal of the day, so if you find yourself in Nashville, I would implore you to come and check out this city staple of over 30 years now.

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.

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.

Very flavorful. The steak was good. Didn't even really need an additional sauce. White linen type of vibe. We got to sit in the VIP area/chef table. I will definitely be back!!

    4.8* (out of 5) Food: 5* Atmosphere: 5* Value: 4*…read more Service: 5* Would I go back / Recommend?: 5* (Definitely) Total check/person: $75 03/20/2026 This place caught my wife's eye during her reviews of places to eat while staying in downtown Nashville and was an easy walk from our hotel, so it was our first dinner destination after arriving. The small signage made it a little difficult to find inside the Marriott (see pictures), but from the moment we walked in, heard the live piano player and saw the dining area - we knew this would be a great experience. We started off by sharing orders of Lobster Bisque (see picture) and Burrata with Toast (see pictures). We really enjoyed both of them - the Lobster Bisque was so creamy and smooth and the Burrata was cool, fresh and clean. They were a great combination to start our dinner experience and I would recommend both of them. Since it was a Friday during lent, my wife opted for the BBQ Shrimp Pasta (see picture) and I went with the Daily Fish Special on Blue Corn Grits (see picture). As we always do when we go out, we shared our plates and really enjoyed both of them. The BBQ Shrimp Pasta was rich, buttery and smooth and the Fish Special was a tasty white, flaky and blackened fish served on a bed of rich, creamy blue corn grits. Here again, both are highly recommended. While it is one of your more expensive area stops for dinner, you will appreciate the food quality and presentation at Gannons Nashville for your next special occasion.

    What a wonderful dining experience! The restaurant is beautiful. Our servers were great. We…read morechallenged them to get us out by 7pm because we had to get to a concert. They made it happen. All six of us were delighted with our meals. The portions were large and cooked perfectly. I can't remember a better restaurant experience. They knocked it out of the park!
