On my first visit, I ordered a large vegan plate with BBQ Jerk Jackfruit, arroz con gandules, y cabbage. Soy cubana pues I felt obliged to add some Cuban black beans as well. Then I was informed that their Festival is also vegan, so despite my gluten intolerance, I had to try those too. JACKFRUIT- This vegan wonder fruit requires some serious prep, otherwise it ends up being bland and boring. When I saw the big chunks of jackfruit I was worried, thinking it'd be lacking in flavor. I have never been so happy to be wrong! The have excelled at the near impossible feat of thoroughly marinating every single nano inch of each piece of jackfruit. The flavor and texture were phenomenal! I was so impressed! 10/10 ARROZ CON GANDULES - Very good in a subtle way. Perfect combination with the jackfruit and Cuban Black Beans. CABBAGE- Delicious!! CUBAN BLACK BEANS- The test with beans is to try them by themselves before adding them to rice. These beans passed the test. Very flavorful on their own. FESTIVAL- Cooked fresh (made to order). Delicious! They also have a nice array of fresh juices and lemonades. The juices are $2 higher than the lemonades. I tried the following: Pineapple Ginger Juice - so fresh!! Real pineapple, real ginger. Tasted like it was just made that day. 10/10 Strawberry Mango was very good too. I went back the next day and tried their collard greens, Jamaican rice and peas, and habichuelas. They were all very good. I also ordered a gallon of the Pineapple Ginger juice. My coworker got the salmon and said that it tasted better the second day than the first time. Riddim n' Spice successfully executes various flavors and dishes from across the West Indies. You feel an irie vibe as soon as you enter; and I received a warm welcome as soon as I walked in the door. It's a spacious restaurant with a dedicated parking lot, so bring your whole crew. read more

Oh, how I love this place! The people are always nice & the restaurant is always playing some music to get you going. My favorite menu item is the build your bowl. You can choose your protein, sauce, & 4 toppings. My bowl usually consist of jerk chicken, trini fried rice, honey jerk sauce, corn, sweet n tangy peppers, & caramelized onions; however, their menu changed a few months ago & they no longer have the sweet n tangy peppers, but they have added diced sweet potatoes & broccoli to the menu- so that's what I added in. The sweet potatoes are fye! I can honestly eat those by themselves. And the bowl was amazing per usual. read more

My brother put me on to Riddim a few years ago. Back then, the vibe was great every time I would walk in. The food was delicious too. I've brought friends from Georgia here to eat, previously. I recently came back to the city, and we stopped to get food here. I'm not sure if they changed ownership, but everything was off. The guy who took our order(never seen before, but it's been a couple years), his energy was bland and uninviting. I've always ordered their bowl with all of the veggies, but in the past I've gotten the rice and peas as the base. This time, I got the trini rice as the base; it had way too much turmeric. I got the regular jerk sauce on my bowl and it was underwhelming, previously I would get the sweeter version which may be the bbq jerk sauce. Previously, I would get most of the veggie toppings to make my veggie bowl, but it's limited 4 toppings now. I eyed the jackfruit, but decided not to get it because it was the whole pieces. I'm experienced with jackfruit and you must shred it to maximize flavor; it's not something to just toss in sauce haha. I opted not to set myself up on this visit by adding it. They were out of the cucumber lime drink and the drinks come in bottles instead of cups now. The pikliz was pretty good... Overall, It was not a good experience. I'm sad because I use to enjoy this spot and really looked forward to my visit. read more

Got takeout, and really enjoyed it. I got a plate with lamb, Puerto Rican rice, sweet potatoes, mango cucumber salad, and some other veggies. The honey garlic sauce is tasty and the lamb has great flavor. It's a bit chewy in certain places and I do feel like the portion should've been slightly larger. But I did enjoy!! read more

Excellent simple Caribbean spot! Relatively small menu but that's not a bad thing. They know what they do and they do it well. The curry goat was fantastic, so tender, rich, and flavorful. The rice was also good and soaked up the curry juices well. The mac and cheese was baked (just how I prefer), and had a grest blend of cheeses. Plus it had some richness. All around a great plate of generous portions! read more

Was visiting from Memphis for the day and wanted some Jamaican food. And found this on Yelp. This was my first time seeing a cafeteria style set up Jamaican place. The food was well seasoned. The only thing was it was a a lot of fatty pieces to the oxtail. I don't eat oxtail a lot so I'm not sure if that's normal or not. And since the food is served cafeteria style it not as hot as I would like it. I like my food steaming hot. This was just like a normal to Luke warm hot. But overall still very tasty! read more

Riddim n Spice/Rum Room is such a Nashville gem! I've been numerous times and just now getting to write a review. It's a carribean fast casual restaurant downstairs and a bar upstairs. My favorite meal I've had was the plantain French toast for brunch. It's been months since I've had it and I still remember what it taste like. The service is always good whether downstairs or upstairs. They have vegan options as well! Parking is easy and plentiful. Sometimes they host events and parties which can get pretty crowded so make sure to follow their IG to find the best time to go. read more

While in Nashville we were looking for something that wasn't nearby where we were staying. We found this place on Yelp and ordered right before they were closing for pickup. We ended up getting their large chicken plate with a side of rice. The chicken was succulent and flavorful. It came with some original jerk watery sauce that was pours into our to go container. It was a little messy but we dealt. We also got it with mac n cheese which was too salty but still good. We got yellow rice and a side of rice and beans. The yellow rice was okay. We enjoyed the rice and beans one better. The girl at the counter was very nice. We ended up paying $17 for our meal which we though was very affordable considering how much meat we received. We just picked up our order and didn't dine there. The restaurant has its own parking lot which makes it easy. read more

I got the BBQ Jerk chicken plate w/ fried plantain & green beans. The plantains I was not a fan of as I think the warming tray dried them out and made them tough/rubbery. Green beans had a really good flavor although were a bit stringy. I liked them overall. The chicken was SO good. It was like a really good grilled bbq chicken from somebody's cookout. I found the actual jerk seasoning to be barely noticeable though. I'd go back for the chicken. read more

ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE. I paid $30 on everything for what? there was literally NO jerk sauce on my chicken. like NONE I'm not even joking. everything was so dry and bland Then i paid extra for boneless but they gave me bone in anyway. Worst "Jamaican" food i've ever had. I genuinely can't believe they played in my face like this. If you want authentic i wouldn't come here. This is one of those Americanized Jamaican restaurants that lacks authenticity. I came based on the reviews but i was completely disappointed. What i can say is that the rum cake was absolutely amazing. It was moist and very flavorful. The greens and the pineapple ginger drink was good. Overall i give this meal 1 star for the cake. I sadly won't be going back. read more

Definitely did not expect to find such quality Jamaican food in Nashville, but boy was I wrong. The chicken was very tender (I got dark meat), Plantains were sweet and not too greasy and Mac and cheese was tasty. My only complaint was that I wish the jerk was spicier, however if you ask they can add extra hot peppers to the jerk or you can also buy a side of pickli which was a perfect addition. Their prices are also not bad for the amount of food you get, I ordered the large jerk chicken and my meal was $19. The eating area is very clean and they play nice music on the speakers as you eat. read more

I would like to come back. We came for Rum room but it was closed at 7pm on a Weds though the site says hours vary but it would be open. You pick your food like a cafeteria but they keep your food behind the register until its paid for which means when you have a party of 4 & you are paying for all of them and food service isn't that quick, you food sits back there getting cold. If you order Rum cake, which was spectacular, in a To go container they tell you to go put your food down and come back and get it. Ok. The chicken was good though cold. The honey jerk was delicious and not too spicy. The cucumber mango salad could have used more mango but was good. I will try this place again when the Rum Room is open. Maybe 10pm on a Friday... read more

I love trying new cuisines and I felt like Riddim N Spice does an amazing job at not only recreating Caribbean food but also their culture! It is fast casual so the service is pretty fast. There is also a mix of high and low top tables. The walls are bright colors and the music is pretty loud but it is a fun vibe! On Tuesdays from 2-5pm they have a $10 chicken bowl deal but you have to mention it to get the deal. I ended up getting the chicken bowl with a Jamaican rice and pea base and topped with black beans, caramelized onions, peppers, cucumber mango salad, and honey jerk sauce. It comes in a pretty decent portion (big fan of how much chicken is included)! Everything tasted great! read more

The food was delicious, bar had good drinks flowing, and service was great! The staff inside the restaurant portion were polite and patient, the bartenders are attentive and friendly, and the DJ on Tuesday (I believe is Tika) is AMAZING! The patio area is small but mighty, decorated with island vibes, and has seating for small or large groups but be prepared to get your own table. There are apparently different specials depending on the night, so for Tuesdays there are $16 endless tacos on the patio (if you buy food inside you don't have to buy the tacos for patio entry, but you have to spend some kind of money to get back there lol) and there were $5 mango margs, house margs, and rum punch until 8:30p. If you buy one of those drinks within the time frame of the special, you can also get a shot for $5! I'll definitely be back soon! read more

We were passing through Nashville and wanted to support a black owned restaurant for lunch. This place came with good reviews and a few noted awards. The restaurant was nice and clean, staff friendly and a varied menu. I had the Island Bowl with shrimp, rice, honey jerk sauce and plantains & onions on top. The dish was tasty but the shrimp was over cooked. Probably from sitting around in the warmer pan too long. My partner had the ox tails which were not tender and lacked seasoning. I really wanted to give this place 5 stars upon initial impressions, but the food didn't measure up. read more

I tried Hattie B's two days later and there's no comparison whatsoever . Come here for Nashville Hot chicken .. you won't regret it!

4.5/5 - first timer at reds hot chicken & it did not disappoint!…read more Ordered the medium slice hot chicken & waffles with fries as a side. The chicken was fantastic - crispy, juicy & spicy! Fries were average - hot & seasoned but nothing special! I didn't have any of the other sides although I would love to try them if I make it back! We did wait 45 minutes for the food - but they have a sign flashing which tells you the wait time BEFORE you order so this was nothing surprising! Would recommend everyone to try it out if they make it to Nashville

It's cooked ton order so it's served piping hot, with crispy skin and moist interior with a very mild spiciness. Sides include the usual, but the fried okra and fried green tomatoes are wonderful. The service is very attentive and friendly. The ambiance is a collection of odd tables and second hand chairs. Gus's is all about great fried chicken.

Hattie B's Hot Chicken - Nashville - Lower Broadway

Hattie B's! This is…read morea larger and nicer restaurant than the original location. Who wants to wait in a long line when you have the same chicken in a large air conditioned spot? We're all at a conference and it's now lunchtime. People are hemming and hawing about where to go, I suggest the best hot chicken Nashville has to offer. We all wait on a small line and I order a *medium* heat level. A few are showing off and order the magma level heat. Hey, you do you! The medium heat is plenty without grasping for ice water. My chicken was enjoyable and it was the perfect amount of heat. I washed it all down with a proper sweet tea. Forget the other Nashville chicken spots, Hattie B's is what everyone wants when they come to Nashville.

Honestly a bit overhyped and a bit of a letdown for me. As with many popular places, the line goes…read moreout the door, but with the registers and time you'll have waiting in line, the orders get placed quickly. Next is finding a place to sit, which can be hard during busy times. Hattie B's has 5 different spice levels (mild, medium, hot, damn hot, and shut the cluck up) to choose from. I got the tenders plate with the damn hot spice level with mac and cheese and fries on the side. Honestly, the sides were the best part of my meal. The fries were crispy on the outside without being too soggy in the center and the mac and cheese was creamy and didn't solidify/congeal over the course of my meal. The disappointing part was the chicken itself. The damn hot wasn't so much spicy as much as it was gratuitously spiced. I was able to tolerate the heat level, but I could see the different layers of spice that the tenders were prepared with. All I could taste was the taste of peppers and couldn't really taste the chicken at all. The taste of the chicken seemed to be consumed by the peppers. Sure, it was a bucket list thing for me to try, but it was at the cost of enjoying my fried chicken. I'm sure the lesser heat levels are more enjoyable, but I don't think I'd come back unless someone in my group was passionate about trying the chicken.

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. The fried chicken is, without exaggeration, among the most excellent in the city, and the portions are notably generous. Each accompanying dish is prepared with the utmost care and discernment, reflecting a commendable attention to detail. Having first dined here upon our arrival in Nashville, it has since secured a place of particular esteem among the establishments we hold in highest regard. It is, beyond question, an experience to which one ought to aspire at least once. I confess a certain satisfaction in knowing that such a venerable tradition continues to flourish in the South.

Came here one morning on my way out Nashville. I wanted a good breakfast, and all my research told…read moreme I had to come check this place out. I'm glad I did. 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.
