The curse of Rumours continues!…read more I don't know that any business can survive this address. My first BW review of the year and it seems to have come as a surprise. Whispers abound as to whether the issue at VG was a rent hike or whether the owner just lost interest. In any event, it's the same sad story at the corner of 12th and Woodland. And that's too bad because VG acquitted itself nicely. On a Friday in mid-spring it was the exact right place I wanted to be to catch up with a friend. That backyard has been the stuff of legends for every iteration for a reason. If you've been here for a while, you know the score: walk in the front, smile, be greeted, ask for a table outside. That's just what we did. But before that we got drinks. Being a wine bar and being happy hour and being a Friday we went all in on the house red sangria. Served in a pleasantly large goblet, this goodie jar of wine and fruit did the job of quenching thirst and spurring conversation. To add to the libations, we settled on a series of bites: whipped feta (with sourdough -- and every bit of decadent as described in other reviews), olive tapenade (a briny, mound of oil, citrus and herbs) and (skinny) fries with parmesan & white truffle oil. Right?? What a perfect way to end the work week and begin the weekend. We had wonderful service from Abby and stayed on premises well into sundown. There was a steady crowd throughout our visit so I don't think a lack of business was the COD. Whatever the reason, it sort of boggles the mind that a wine bar concept can't stick around in a neighborhood and location that seems to crave it. That curse might be real.

Cute little place to sip some wine and try some small plates. We tried the Brussel sprouts (half…read moreserving was more than enough!) and the caprese. I thought both were ok, nothing super memorable, but tasty nonetheless. Maybe it was just my taste, but the sprouts were a little too charred for me. Found free street parking not too far from the restaurant. Our waitress gave us good wine recs which I appreciated! I liked all the Van Gogh artwork, especially the paper mache ear!

Tucked away on the third floor of Rand Dining Hall at Vanderbilt University, the Pub (as students…read moreaffectionately call it) is one of the culinary world's crown jewels. On the cutting edge of technology, it utilizes an ergonomic self-monitoring pickup system to deliver food to customers as soon as their meal is prepared. The variety of top shelf libations at the bar and Southern fusion-inspired menu create an atmosphere of luxury and prestige. The combination of multitudinous seating options, exclusive weekly social events (Thursday nights, I'm looking at you) and an undisputed appreciation from current undergrads and alumni alike casts the Pub at Overcup Oak as Nashville's premier hub of culture, cuisine, and class.

Every time we came back to the hotel, we were greeted no matter the time. Our room was clean and spacious. The room had a mini fridge and safe with a nice view towards downtown. It's about 10 minutes walk to downtown, which is an easy walk to Broadway. There is a restaurant and bar by the pool. The pool was packed and water was warm. I enjoyed the live musician they had during lunch. They also have a restaurant downstairs with bar. We enjoyed the complimentary margaritas they offered! They also have a Starbucks onsite which was nice! The gym was a good size. They have a guest laundry room. Valet was $65 per night. We walked or used Lyft to get around. Overall great stay!

I would say to add additional signage at all entrances to help with that confusion. The drinks itself were great, I got a frozen lemonade as well as a beer. I wish the presentation was a bit better for the lemonade as it was in a solo cup. Definitely better dive bar vibes and had a good amount of games playing. Perfect location right next to the Sounds stadium as well!

There is family style seating and outside seating. Rita was our server and she was a pleasure. We started with Big Ass Mimosas which contains an entire bottle of bubbly. I ordered Nashville hot chicken on a biscuit and RJ ordered sausage and gravy. Mine also came with a side of sausage and gravy. What!! It was the best we have ever had, as was the hot chicken. They have 3 days of brunch here. We found our people! We also ordered a fresh pretzel to go which came with cheese and spicy mustard.

IYKYK. This brewery is a hoppy haven with an epic beer selection. Whether you're a craft beer nerd or just here for a good time. It's the perfect spot to kick back with a friend or your crew. They are also pet friendly so your four legged buddies are also welcome! The vibes are pure "off-Broadway" Nashville, where you can mingle with locals and dodge the tourist traps. The staff are rockstars who made the visit feel welcoming. Oh, and did I mention you can channel your inner Mario Kart champ on their gaming setup? Grab a pint, race for the checkered flag, and have some fun! New Heights, you've got my tastebuds!

3.5 To borrow a page…read morefrom my Salsa review: "Nashville has Dominicans?" I had a friend in town from Miami and I wanted to show him that Nashville had a Latin scene beyond Central America. A furious search later and we came upon 809. When I saw that the name and colors were legit, I felt good about bringing him here. We walked in on a Wednesday night and we were the only people in the bar. At the time, they were transitioning from being a bar & restaurant to just a bar. That meant that I would not be enjoying any mangu or sancocho. No me gusta. After sidling up to the bar* and having the bartender pick the wrong one of us to be Dominican, I opted to have a strong rum drink since I wouldn't be enjoying any food. She asked what I wanted and I told her to surprise me. Some blending later, I had a perfectly strong rum drink to make me feel like I was going to the islands. She told us that the weekend is the top time to check 809 out. From the ample bar space and pool tables in the venue, I thought that sounded right. She also mentioned that, to her knowledge, this was the only Dominican bar/restaurant in the Nashville area. That's just crazy. I know Nashville is still growing and the city hasn't fully settled into what it's going to be but... Imma need Nashville to hurry up and attract more of my peoples.** For right now, 809 is a solid 3.5 for me. The lack of food is a bummer and I'd need to see the joint in full swing to go up/down but for what I experienced, I appreciated what they're doing and I hope they have the business to support it. I'll be back. *An insane telenovela was playing above the bar, which made me all sorts of happy. **Depends on the day/circumstance.

They just opened their kitchen and are offering a variety of Dominican, Mexican and Central-American dishes. I tried their Sancocho (Caribbean beef stew) and Tacos (al pastor and Chorizo) which were excellent. Their tacos are very well seasoned and not too greasy. As an appetizer I recommend the fried plantains and fried yuca with Chicharrón. People are very friendly; do not be surprised if someone invites you to dance salsa or bachata. I really enjoyed this place; I highly recommend it.
