A nice spot to eat in East Nashville. Aesthetic was trendy and moody and the vibe was a really nice dinner setting. We were able to make a reservation a couple days before for a Saturday dinner. Staff was attentive and gave good suggestions. Everything was nicely plated and I think overall the dishes were good, but I didn't personally think I needed to have anything again per say. What we ordered: + smoked bone marrow - pickled red onion & parsley salad, smoked salt, grilled FM sourdough - generous to make sure we had 4 pieces, one for each of us, bread was toasted to near burnt, and I wish there was more herbs/onions to eat with + queso fondito - PRB chorizo, pumpkin seeds, cilantro, warm tortillas, escabeche - nice cheese blend, but I think it was missing some more oomph, I think I prefer the crunchy chip than tortilla + SM grilled 12oz bone-in pork chop - TN smoked cheddar mac and cheese, braised greens, TN chow chow - Not our favorite entree but I liked the cheddar mac + beef short rib stroganoff - Nicoletto's rigatoni, roasted onion, mushroom & garlic, sour cream - my favorite dish of the night! A unique way to present a classic dish and I thought it was delicious. + Empanadas - crispy exterior and good filling, the chimichurri was more oil-tasting than additional flavor + Gem salad with fried tomatoes - I like the fried tomatoes! I think a romaine would be better than the gem lettuce as it was a little soft. We were stuffed afterwards so this amount was plenty for 4 people. Price was also reasonable! read more

Overall, the food was very good. We ordered the pork chop and the catch of the day which was swordfish. The swordfish was tender and moist and really cooked to perfection and had a nice crust on it and wasn't tough like swordfish can be. The pork chop cooked medium. It was very moist and delicious. The greens were fabulous. Mac & cheese was good. With the swordfish, I got cheesy grits, which were amazing. I wanted green beans instead of the grits, but they would not substitute. So I ordered the green beans as a side. Had to pay full price for the side, which in my opinion, you should be able to substitute sides so that didn't make me happy. However, the green beans with the pecans and the bacon, and whatever that sauce was, was worth the extra money. Our waiter was kind of weird and made us feel uncomfortable. Even though we had a reservation for TWO WEEKS ahead of time, our table was small and in the way of traffic. Many other empty tables around us that were never filled. I don't know why we had to sit right inside the front door in the middle of the aisle where everybody was walking by and accidentally hitting us as they walked by. I liked the ambience, but it was a small place, the waiter never smiled. He did an adequate job, but I wouldn't say he was great. The food was very good but not great. Bottom line... I wouldn't go out of my way to do here again. read more

Super nice, trendy restaurant in a quaint Nashville neighborhood. Reservations are highly recommended although, not required. An internet search while traveling pointed us to Lockeland on a Friday evening and we so happened to thread the needle of being being able to get a table. We did not have reservations but luckily found a couple of seats at the bar. The bartender quickly greeting us, giving us menus and offering drink choices. The bartenders were very attentive and alot of fun to talk to. We opted for a non traditional meal choice and started with a bunch of apps and made it more of a small plate, tapas style meal. We loved everything we got from the wings to the empanadas to the warm dip. Everything came out on time and was full of flavor and the cocktails were out of this world. Not the traditional cocktails you would expect but all bursting with flavors. A must go-to restaurant. read more

Lockeland Table had been on my list for a very long time, and I was thrilled to finally get to try it. I loved the ambience and the neighborhood is one of my faves in Nashville. LT is lively, but casual and warm. I really liked our server (Jess, I believe). She was friendly. The biscuits are buttery and delicious and I thought I'd gone to heaven. These were probably the best biscuits I've ever had. I would go back for those alone. My entrée was the pork chop, which came with braised greens, smoked mac and cheese, and chowchow. It was absolutely delicious and one of my favorite meals. The pork was tender and the accompaniments were the perfect sides. I didn't order dessert, but wished that I had. There were a few misses, however. My friend ordered a vegetable pizza. The vegetables were unseasoned, and it was very bland. I would probably never order pizza from here. I didn't care for my smoked old-fashioned cocktail. I think that was because they use black walnut bitters and I that night was when I learned that I do not care for black walnut, so that's no fault of LT. However, it's a smoked cocktail and they used Corsair rye, and I would think that if they wanted to make it truly smoky, they would use the Corsair triple smoke. Overall, I really enjoyed LT and would love to return anytime I'm in town. read more

Lockeland Table in Nashville was one of those meals that reminds you why good food + good people + good atmosphere is a holy trinity. I met up with an old friend and her fiancé, and we grabbed seats at the bar for some prime people-watching, great service, and that easy, neighborhood-cool energy that makes you want to linger. I started with the roasted carrot and beet salad, and it was bright, earthy, and beautifully balanced with crispy goat cheese, a little sweetness, a little tang. The kind of salad that makes you forget you're eating a salad. But the real star? The mussels. Phenomenal. Perfectly cooked, swimming in a broth so good I drank it straight from the bowl without shame. Grilled bread for soaking it all up accompanied them, but I am gluten free. A gluten free option would have been great. Wasting that broth would be a small culinary crime. Add in their Community Hour specials, friendly bar service, and a warm, lived-in atmosphere, and Lockeland Table just feels like a place people belong. We left full, happy, and already talking about when we could come back. read more

Wow! Our daughter recommended this place to us and we finally got a chance to try it. What great ambiance, fun, not stuffy; close quarters but not TOO close. Our server, Hunter, was perfection. Friendly, helpful and attentive, but not overbearing. There were four of us. Between us we had the bread service- yum!, the wedge salad, which my son and daughter in law couldn't stop raving about, the Mahi Mahi, which got solid reviews but was the least impressive of all our dishes, the pork chop, which I highly recommend, and the winning dish of the night... the stroganoff!! SO GOOD! We all got to try it and I plan to get my own the next time I visit and there WILL be a next time. We finished it off by sharing a cookie skillet which gave us all one good spoonful of delight. Well done Lockeland Table! read more

Is this the best happy hour in town? I certainly think so, but I'll let you decide. I recently met up with a friend at Lockeland Table on a weeknight, and was quite impressed with this little East Nashville eatery. Street parking isn't too hard to find in this neighborhood. I didn't make a reservation - and instead just decided to arrive right at 4 PM and hope that I could snag a table for two or a couple of seats at the bar. Thankfully there was a spot available for us to enjoy Lockeland Table's "community hour," which is their version of happy hour. Monday - Saturday from 4 - 6 PM, you can enjoy great food and drink specials, and portion of proceeds benefits local schools. My friend and I each ordered had a glass of their house rosé, along with two of their pizzas. For $7 (+ $1 if you add pepperoni), this is an incredible deal for a high-quality pie. It's not a small pizza either ... although no shame if you end up finishing the whole thing like I did. Their regular pizzas are more than double the price, although I still think that's worth it for how tasty everything here is. I'm excited to come back soon for another budget-friendly dinner for a good cause! read more

We had an amazing experience last night! The food was amazing! We were planning our next meal there while we were eating. Order the Bone Marrow! That's w good sign. Kristen was great.

I was staying at the Urban Cowboy, across the street, and decided to head in for a meal. Then Bad Idea called and we went there instead, so this is jsut about the Community Hour. Based on the few food items we had, I would say 3 stars on food, but that would not be fair to Lockeland as we did not eat a full meal. The place is a bit tight and darker, which gives a mixed ambiance (is it date night or drinking night?). The appetizers were average. The hummus tasted more like a bean dip, as I did not get any hint of the tahini. Perhaps there, but, if so, they need to add a bit more. Pricing on community hour was on point and I could see this being a cheers spot for the locals in the area. Will I return? Yes, but primarily to give the place a chance with dinner or to grab a cocktail during community hour at the bar. read more

We knew we wanted some really good eats on our trip to Nashville! This restaurant was truly the highlight of our food tour. Everything was so fresh and so delicious. The bone marrow appetizer was our favorite. The dinner vibe was fun and social, and felt electric. We were well tended to by the wait staff. We loved everything we ordered and finished with banana foster, which of course was incredible. Run, don't walk, to Lockeland Table! read more

Lockeland Table is hands-down one of my favorite restaurants in Nashville. It's the kind of place that feels both elevated and inviting, with a true farm-to-table approach that shines in every dish. The food is top notch. The wood-fired chicken is perfectly tender and flavorful, the pork chop is juicy and rich, and the mussels are some of the best I've had--fresh, aromatic, and swimming in a broth you'll want to soak up with their crusty bread. And you must order the bone marrow! Everything tastes fresh, thoughtful, and deeply satisfying. Combine that with warm, attentive service and a cozy neighborhood setting, and you've got a dining experience that keeps you coming back. read more

Lockeland Table - Chicken - New American Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

My friends and I visited this farm table restaurant on an extremely stormy night. However, we had a great food experience! We tried a lot of the menu and all of the dishes, tasted incredibly fresh and had generous portions. Our favorites were definitely the chicken dish, the salad, the mac & cheese, the cheddar biscuits, and the pizzas. Lasagna was very good as well, but a little bit heavy. We also split a cookie skillet for dessert which was satisfactory. The service left a lot to be desired, but it was still a great neighborhood spot in East Nashville to hit up if you ever find yourself there. read more

Went tonight for a dinner with friends. Parking in the street nearby wasn't difficult to find even on a Saturday night. The staff were warm and friendly. The ambiance was a cozy neighborhood restaurant. The server explained the menus to us. We went during community hour and got drinks, the hummus and the daily special which was roasted carrots and broccoli. For entrees we got the seasonal halibut which came with grits and vegetables and the NY strip which came with chimichurri, greenbeans, tomatoes and pecans. Everything tasted great! Everything was seasoned expertly with the right amount of salt, herbs and acid. My favorite part of the meal was the greenbeans with pecans, chimichurri, and tomatoes on the side of the steak; it had a great smoky, vinegary flavor. It's easy to see why this restaurant is such a staple in east Nashville. I can't wait to go back. read more

Everyone knows Community Hour has the best deals in town. $7 apps and cocktails can't be beaten, especially when the portions are generous and delish! My favorites are the queso with tortillas and arancini, both came out piping hot and fresh. The ambiance inside is perfect for everything from date night, girls night, or treating yourself to a solo meal. Will be back often! read more

Lockeland table is a cozy spot with great food in East Nashville. I love the amount of different options this place has. Their community hour is amazing and they donate proceeds from community hour. The portions are generous and the food and drinks are yummy. For drinks, there was wine and cocktail options. It was packed at 5pm for community hour so definitely make a reservations. I got the wings which was a must try! The wings were so flavorful and had great flavors (gochujang I think?), but get ready to get your hands filled with chicken wing sauce. The white bean hummus was also fantastic. I love that it came with both pita chips and vegetables, it was a great dip. read more

This place is always exceptional. They have great food we have ordered almost everything on the menu from empanadas to pizza to bone marrow that my husband absolutely loves to the Cajun shrimp with grits and the veggie plate and the chocolate chip skillet The drinks are just so amazing and the ambience is low key even a nice patio I like that we were able to use our Amx concierge to book a reservation while we were driving from memphis to Nashville Oh sit at the pizza bar when you get a chance to see how the wood burn stove works also it is warm there. One thing we noticed it is always chilly in the restaurant but that's the only thing to take note of before you go. read more

Returned to Lockeland Table for my second time and I was equally as impressed as the first time! The quaint house in East Nashville is the perfect mix of comfort and indulgence. Our server was knowledgeable about the daily specials and enjoyable to chat with. The food was all phenomenal! From white bean hummus to crispy Korean wings to red fish, we loved every plate we tried! I personally am obsessed with the red curry mussels as they pack a punch of flavor with their sauce! They host a great community hour from 4-6 (I believe) and have a wide range of drinks & snacks to pick from for ~ $7 each! In addition to getting to try a lot of fun options for less, part of the proceeds from community hour goes to local schools! read more

Lockeland Table was easily the best meal we had in Nashville. After a day of exploring and being out on Broadway, it was the perfect change of pace. It's in a very cute neighborhood. I would highly recommend making a reservation because it was completely packed on a Saturday evening. We ordered the steak that came with green beans and the grilled pork chop that came on a bed of mac & cheese. We really enjoyed both meals. The mac & cheese tasted smoked and the chutney on top of the pork chop was the perfect addition. Service was top-notch and I'd definitely visit again. read more

The vibe is casual, dark inside can be loud and the wood fired pizza oven definitely adds character. The service is fine, nothing bad to say about it. The food is...questionable. I did enjoy 2 of the appetizers there but I felt the entree I got and the desserts my table shared were lacking. The pate is some of the best pate I've had, seem like they make it there and the jam works amazing with it even though I was skeptical. The definite star of the show was the Red Thai Curry Mussels. The spice and flavor were top tier and the portion was large, felt sufficient for our table of 3. We also got the empanadas of the day which were good but it comes out as 2 large ones so we just had to split it. I got the pork chop and it was cooked beautifully but swimming in the sea of marmalade onions was not doing it any justice. I couldn't stomach it. The pork chop had no flavor otherwise. The sweet potato mash was nothing special. As for the dessert, a true disaster. The Banana Foster Breas pudding tasted like a banana walnut muffin that went stale 3 days ago...not moist in the slightest. We also shared the cheese cake, and it wasn't anything special. Just sweetened cream cheese in a circle over Graham cracker crumbs and some raspberries and raspberry syrup ontop. Overall would not go again, definitely not worth all the money spent. read more

I was really eager to try this place after hearing so many good things, but unfortunately it was a big disappointment. The menu felt scattered with no clear theme, one minute it's bone marrow, the next it's wings, which made it hard to know what the restaurant was going for. We ordered the fried brie, empanadas, and pomme frites. The brie was completely flavorless and came with only three chips, despite being described as "shareable." The empanada order included just two empanadas, and they weren't very good unless dipped in the chimichurri. To make matters worse, there was black residue floating in the water jug on our table that we unknowingly drank from the entire time. The only reason I'm not leaving a one-star review is because the pomme frites were actually good. read more

The waiters were all very nice and my cocktail was delicious! We went for Community Hour and had the hot chicken tacos, fried crab croquettes and pepperoni pizza. All yum! It can be loud inside, but we were seated outside in the mid-90's heat (luckily in the shade) and the waiter brought us a spinning contraption to keep the flies away from the delicious food. We had a nice time visiting the cute East Nashville neighborhood. read more

The hummus and pizza were my favorites. There's outdoor seating and street parking. read more

Went to Lockeland Table in East Nashville for the first time with some friends during their "community hour". This is an amazing concept more restaurants should adopt. It's a happy hour that also gives some proceeds to a local cause. The community hour has great drink and food deals. The tacos were great and had a nice kick at the end. The wings were also very tasty but keep a napkin close like most wings! Great service and street parking readily available surrounding the restaurant. Had a great time and will be back soon! read more

My FIRST time dining at Lockeland Table after hearing all about it for years was exceptional. I made reservations for my wife & I to enjoy the Valentine's Day dinner set menu at $95 per person plus tax & drinks. I had originally made the reservation for 9 PM, which, after working a full day the day before, and then spending eight hours, trying to move back into our house after some construction was finished we moved it to 430 because we were utterly exhausted & knew a 9pm dinner on a weekday would be tough. We arrived a few minutes early just after they had opened & for the most part. It was empty with the exception of a few people already nestled up to the bar, and two tables seated in the back for the dinner service. My wife and I were quickly taken to our table and our drinks brought out while we pondered our choices from the special menu offerings. I had already browsed on the website a few days before, and had a good idea of what I was gonna go with, but I asked our server Jessica to tell me what she liked the most from what they had sampled, and I went with her recommendations. My choices: Smoked & grilled Korean ribs (starter), Lobster Bisque (soup), Maple Leaf Rendered Duck Breast (Main), Amaretto tart (Dessert). My wife's choices: Sautéed gulf shrimp (starter), kale cabbage salad (salad), wood fired miso honey salmon (main), triple cream (dessert) Since we were so early, and the restaurant had not begun to pick up yet, Jessica said she would make sure to give us plenty of time in between each course before she brought it out, which we greatly appreciated because it allowed us to enjoy it more thoroughly. Out of everything I got, I would have to say the Maple leaf rendered duck breast was the highlight. I'm not certain I've ever ordered duck as an entrée dish before primarily because it's not very commonly offered. However, if I ever have the option to order it and I can expect it to be even half as good as this, I definitely will. There was not an underwhelming dish present from our selections & I would without hesitation consider coming here again for a special occasion if they offer a curated menu like this. The service, ambience, & food quality were exceptional. Thanks for a great Valentine's Day meal! read more

Incredible food but oh my gosh this restaurant needs to turn their A/C ON!!!! I've been to this establishment twice now (6 months apart in winter and summer) and both times we left dripping in sweat.

Great meal. The pork chop is impeccable. A must try. Good desserts. Loved the cookie skillet. Pizza was good. Nothing crazy. Carrots were so tasty with a nice Mediterranean sauce.

Lockeland Table's margherita pizza was one for the books. The edge of the crust was slightly charred in parts, while the base of the crust was very thin and floppy -- likely a fork and knife operation unless you don't mind folding the slices. The tomato sauce was rich with a slightly sweet and tangy flavor profile. The mozzarella was just salty enough, and the micro basil added an earthy and refreshing note to each bite. The drizzle of olive oil was a delicious final touch. I was hungry, so I was able to eat the entire pizza without issue. The service was great and I really enjoyed the intimate/cozy atmosphere. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu. read more

This place has been on my list for a while and im super glad I finally got to try it! I think this is a really great option if you're looking for a decent date spot to impress or want to treat someone special. It has a really nice little vibe to it and the people are super friendly. I had the "Mr. Milchick" to drink and the woodstock pizza and it was honestly incredible. I will say if you get anything besides a pizza you can definitely expect to pay a little more. My friend ordered some sort of chicken plate and it was definitely pricier but you could totally see why when you looked at it. So I'd say if you have the money and want to spoil yourself to a guaranteed good experience then this place is a great option. :) read more

Lockeland table is one of the top restaurants to visit in East Nashville. Atmosphere id great for either a date night or hanging with friends. They have an incredible happy hour ("community hour") that is $7 for really great food. Their normal menu is reasonably priced as well. Service was top notch, checked on us a few times but mostly left us alone. We tried 4 different things on their community hour menu. - Pork Belly Tacos This was our favorite dish. Absolutely incredible - Pimento Cheese Arancini Basically a fried pimento cheese ball... yum - Queso Fundito Not your typical queso in a good way, Comes with tortillas - Pepperoni Pizza Basic pizza that was good, but I think we'd skip it next time Overall, We will happily be coming here more often, and I recommend giving it a try! read more

There is a Disney like feel to this little gem. The staff is very fluid and warm. The staff has everything covered. From guest service, to timely food orders, to back of house dynamic. Though the restaurant is not very large, the way the space is utilized, is absolutely ideal and comfortable. It's very pretty and the music complements the feel of the decore. Pizza bar may just be the best seat in the house. We started with the Arugula salad which was light, crisp, sweet and robust. Beautiful medley of flavors and perfect size. Two entrees included the NY strip, grilled perfectly with a sautéed green bean medley. The flavors were Smokey and mild which allowed the natural flavors of the steak and veg to shine through. The Margarita pizza was perfectly balance and so light. We saved room for dessert which is something I always recommend doing. We finished with the Banana foster bread pudding. Rich enough to be called bread pudding, light enough to leave you wanting another. The experience was so lovely and the perfect place to stop before getting back on the road. There are plenty of other items on the menu that really stood out, and given the opportunity I can't wait to come back. Thank you so much! read more
