Our server (I believe his name was Mitch) was phenomenal! We started off with the guava girlies, anti-hero, tan lines and good times - our favorites were the guava girlies and the anti- hero. The tan lines didn't have a deep enough flavor profile for us. For food, we got the Caesar salad, the green beans, the tuna crispy rice, the hurricane fries, charred scallion noodles, and burnt end lettuce wraps! Every dish was a hit but our favorites were the green beans (we were obsessed with the sauce) and the burnt end lettuce wraps. We also tried the lipstick marks, second hand smoke (sub mezcal with regular tequila), and guava girlies with tequila - all of these were also delicious! Despite being full, we had to try the dessert and tried the brookie with ube ice cream. We were also surprised with a scoop of pandan ice cream. This may be one of the most unique flavor profiles for a brookie I've ever had and it paired beautifully with the ube and pandan gelato! This was truly a fantastic dining experience and we will definitely be back!

By the bar we got to see some of the dishes being made. Great date night spot. Limited parking. This is a tapas spot and our serve did a good job recommending how many dishes to get. The only reason Noko is not getting 5 stars is because the server said that they would time out the dishes for us, so it was best to place our entire order all at once. However, we got 3 dishes and then it took about 30 minutes for other two to come out. Maybe we were eating too fast but felt like we were waiting a while for our food. The food itself was absolutely delicious. There was nothing we ordered that I did not like. Some favorites include the burnt ends lettuce wraps and Korean chicken wings. The Sando, shrimp and tuna crispy rice was also spectacular. The tuna was so flavorful and refreshing on the tuna crispy rice. The sauce of the east side shrimp really makes the dish. I'm not a huge shrimp person but this was really good. This is a must go to spot in Nashville and would definitely want to come back.

Every single element was balanced and well thought out. - Cookie skillet- crispy cookie and vanilla gelato brought the brown sugar in the cookie. this is not your mama's cookie skillet; this is elevated and quality. Our waiter was so kind and attentive and answered all of our questions. The vibe was fun and chill. The only downside is parking but don't let that stop you from experiencing this unassuming neighborhood gem!

The East Coast oysters were definitely the standout for me--fresh and delicious. We also tried the miso deviled eggs, which were good but a little salty in some bites, and the smoked goat cheese, which was absolutely delicious! I ordered the Global Convenience, which came with a potato chip and caviar. I loved the presentation--it was such a fun touch! Service was excellent and attentive. The only downside was that the bar area is pretty loud, so it can be a little difficult to carry on a conversation. Overall, a great happy hour spot with delicious oysters, creative cocktails, and excellent service. I'd definitely come back!

Welp we done did it. We found them. The best effing fish tacos in Nashville live at Leche de Tigre…read more I didn't believe it at first. I've been around. I've had ceviche here... good ceviche, solid ceviche, ceviche that will do the job if you're suddenly hit with a lime-and-fish craving in East Nashville. If you want the real ceviche crown though, that still belongs to Limo Peruvian Eatery down the street (imho). But let's stay focused here, because what Leche de Tigre has mastered are tacos with fish inside of them. One visit a few weeks ago, in a moment of weakness, I ordered the fried rice. It was fine. Not bad, just... fine. I spent that entire meal staring longingly at Sam's plate of fish tacos like a man who knows he has chosen poorly. She offered me one bite. That bite haunted me for days. So today, sweet redemption. We returned. On a Tuesday. And by some cosmic alignment of fortune, it was Taco Tuesday. Normally $9 for two, today they were $6.99 for two. I don't know if this deal happens every Tuesday, but on this Tuesday, I felt blessed by Paco the god of the taco. And the tacos? These tacos were transcendent. Crispy fish that somehow stayed light, a burst of flavor that didn't just hit your tongue but rewrote your afternoon plans and maybe your life story? Tacos that made me question every other taco I've ever eaten. Nashville, I'm sorry. I didn't know it could be like this. Leche de Tigre sits inside The Wash, which is basically an outdoor food court for adults who still want to feel cool. If fish tacos aren't your thing (which begs the question: are you okay?), you can wander into Cuban food, Vietnamese, fried chicken, pho, and other distractions. But for the love of all that is crispy, order the fish tacos. Four stars for the menu as a whole. Five stars for the tacos. Average it out however you want, but I'm coming back for those tacos.

I will say, I ordered a veggie chaufa and it came with chicken in it, which was annoying for my vegetarian friend. Here's what we tried: -Veggie Chaufa: 9/10 - I'm normally not a fried rice fan but I loved the flavor of this one and it was the perfect level of richness. My only note is that ordering the veggie chaufa meant I should not have had chicken in it. The chicken that did come in it, though, was super moist and flavorful. -Clasico Ceviche: 8.5/10 - YUMMM!! So nice and vinegary, and the seafood was so fresh and tender. Highly recommend. -Pollada: 8/10 - The chicken leg was a bit dry, to be honest, but the potatoes and chimichurri were melt in the mouth good. A shame there was only a tiny bit of them. I also loved the side salad and the sauce that came with the dish, which when mixed with the plain rice, was delicious.

I have family in town and we all were feeling snacky but not necessarily in the mood for a full meal. We also couldn't decided what type of cuisine we wanted, so we decided to go somewhere where everyone could get exactly what they wanted! We didn't have a reservation, but it only took about 25 minutes for us to get a table. Thankfully this location is attached to the mall, so we were able to shop around a bit while waiting for a text from the restaurant. Our server Lexi was lovely, and she had some great recommendations for us as well! We ended up just ordering a smorgasbord of appetizers: Thai chicken lettuce wraps, Cajun arancini, buffalo chicken strips, pretzel bites, and the egg roll sampler. Everything was tasty, and my favorite bite of the night was the Cajun arancini (save for the famous brown bread, obviously). Of course we shared a couple slices of cheesecake too: the banana pudding cheesecake and Adam's peanut butter cheesecake. Both were delicious!

I…read morehad hoped to eat at Paula Deen's, but they had already closed, so I called in a to-go order from The Cheesecake Factory instead. The ordering process couldn't have been easier. My order was taken over the phone, there was plenty of parking right outside, and I really appreciated the dedicated walk-up pickup entrance. It made grabbing my food quick and hassle-free. The team member who helped me was friendly, professional, and my order was ready exactly when promised. I ordered my all-time favorite, Sheila's Chicken & Avocado Salad. If you've never had it, don't skip it. The grilled chicken, fresh avocado, crisp tortilla strips, carrots, cilantro, and citrus-honey-peanut vinaigrette make it one of my favorite salads anywhere. I also asked for two dressings, and they remembered both. The only disappointment was that my salad was missing the cashews. They add a nice crunch and are part of what makes the salad so satisfying. It was late in the evening, and mistakes happen, so I didn't let it overshadow the meal. The salad was still fresh, flavorful, and exactly what I needed after a long day. Of course, I couldn't leave without a slice of the Pineapple Upside-Down Cheesecake. It was every bit as delicious as I remembered and the perfect ending to the day. Overall, I'd happily order from this location again. The service was friendly, the pickup process was efficient, and the food was delicious. My only suggestion is to double-check to-go orders for completeness before they're handed off. Life is too short not to eat well. Find your favorite dish, savor it, and enjoy the journey.
