    Wedge
    Meredith J.

    Very Unique spot for cocktails and snacks. The bartender was great. We weren't really that hungry and wanted something light. We shared the wedge and it was delicious. The bathrooms were really neat. There were no handles you just pushed the door open. You just kind of stare at the wall for a second. Just a fun, unique place.

    Baked Goat Cheese & Disco Fries
    Becca B.

    We spent our Thanksgiving in Nashville and enjoyed our dinner at the Bobby. We reserved our igloo seating on their rooftop prior to showing up - they call this Camp Bobby. The menu is very limited, but they have perfected the dishes immensely! If you are wanting to order a drink that packs a punch, I would recommend getting their spiked hot chocolate which has toasted marshmallows on top. Dishes below: Baked Goat Cheese with a tomato fondue and toasted focaccia bread & the Disco Fries topped with braised short-rib, cheese curds, and Bordelaise Sauce.

    Shrimp and coconut grits
    Maria N.

    New menu We ordered a variety of items off the menu I had the shrimp and grits and I was extremely disappointed. I was looking for good ole southern style shrimp and grits but this was by far one of the worst s&g ive had. Description said coconut grits and I thought it would be just a hint of coconut but boy was I wrong! I felt like it was too thick for grits and the coconut was way too overpowering. The sauce on the shrimp wasn't worth mentioning either Shrimp and grits - 1/5 Crab cake Benedict - 3/5 Truffle fries - 1/5 - had no truffle on the fries. Came with a "truffle aioli" and charged us $12! Almost as much as a burger there Potato fingerlings - 2/5 lack of flavor Decor and ambiance 5/5 I didn't have the salmon bagel but my friend said it was very fishy.

    This was a staple on my Nashville trip itinerary. I made a point to try it from all the good things I'd heard about it. The cocktails are divine! The bartenders were so friendly and helped me decide on the burrata & arugula and the Brussel sprouts (the best I've ever had!) The ambiance of the bar and hotel is pretty rad too. Very cool vibe and decor. My only gripe was how small the menu was and the prices are a bit steep. If you're looking to spend some cash then go, or even for a drink and to people watch -- I'd recommend :)

    This place was delicious!! The food was so incredible and all of the staff were extremely friendly. They have a speakeasy inside of the hotel so if you ask a staff member grant you access you can enjoy some drinks there after dinner!!

    Shishito peppers
    AJ R.

    An amazing dinner location in the Bobby hotel. The ambience was perfect for a night out with friends. We started with the brussel sprouts, blue cheese chips and shishito peppers. If I can say anything about the appetizers the shishito peppers were so good. I'm usually not a fan of peppers, but these tasted amazing!! Perfectly coated in a sweet soy sauce and lightly char roasted. If I could over a plate just for me, I would. We then got the lamb meatballs and truffle pasta for dinner. I am a sucker for anything truffle so the pasta was a no brained. On first look, the pasta looked plain but when I ate the first bite it took me to truffle heaven. One critique I would make is that I wish it had chicken or something on it, but it was still so good. 15/10 would recommend this place for dinner and drinks. The staff was so friendly and accommodating

    WOW WOW WOW. I wish I could give more than 5 stars!! I went here with my sister and some girlfriends and we were blown away. 1. The lobby and restaurant are visually stunning. Beautiful fixtures... don't get me started about the massive chandelier! 2. Service was so informative, helpful, and friendly! I can't remember our servers name... I even asked for it at the end, I tHiNk it started with a J. Anyway, he was absolutely delightful! 3. The menu is concise and to the point. They also cater heavily to vegetarians- I had so many QUALITY options to choose from, which usually isn't the case as a vegetarian! 4. Nice wine selection and perfected cocktails. 5. The food was absolutely delicious. Don't pass up the Buttermilk Blue & Chips, Ceviche, Yazoo Gerst Cheese Bread, or what might be the best pasta *ever*... Black Truffle. Anyway... we will definitely be returning. Definitely.

    Incredible Sirloin cooked to perfection.
    Sarah B.

    We had a great experience at the Tavern. We had a reservation and were seated immediately. Our waiter, Jordan, was great. We had the sirloin and yellowfin tuna ceviche. The chef split the sirloin for us and boy was it cooked to perfection. Absolutely amazing. The ceviche was light and tasty. Was a bit of a bummer that they came out at the same time, but nevertheless, both dishes were spot on. The main downer was how little of a dessert selection they have and what little they do have doesn't seem too memorable. Overall, it was a great experience and I can't wait to eat that steak again.

    Excellent service! Fantastic food! Our server, Bennet was top notch! He was professional, courteous, attentive, and just overall delightful! It was very obvious to us that there is a strong culture of excellence! The manager was very kind and visited with us for awhile. It is quite obvious that he is running an excellent establishment. Wish I could give them more than five stars! Thank you for a lovely experience!

    I love the atmosphere here, the decoration was beautiful. Our server was awesome, and the prices are very reasonable for the downtown location. The burger was decent, I wasn't moved but portion wise I was happy with it.

    4.5 First off, the Bobby is beautiful! Wow! From the moment I stepped inside, I wanted to spend time here. All the employees with which I interacted were all so pleasant and helpful. The decor is fantastic and there are surprised to be found around every corner. But I wasn't here to ohh and ahh over the decor. I was here for lunch and Tavern at Bobby delivered that quite well. To go to the restaurant, head to the back of the first floor. The Cafe at the front/patio of the hotel is a separate installation. We arrived shortly after opening so there wasn't a hostess at the post but our server, Ross, showed us to a table. We sat by the window and started with glasses of rose'. 1.) It's summer. 2.) It was a business lunch. 3.) It's summer. I chose the Spanish rose' and my friend chose the French. I preferred mine. It was a bit lighter and sweeter and went down way too easily. It packed a punch that snuck up on me. Rather than settle on one plate, we decided on a few different plates to share. This was the way to go. As instagrammable as the decor is, the food is as well. But beyond the good looks, it smells and tastes fantastic! There wasn't one bad seed in the bunch. We went to town on the watermelon salad, grilled wings, lamb lollipops, and signature burger w/fries. The watermelon salad was a take on a caprese so expect balsamic, tomato, cheese, and basil -- along with chunks of watermelon. It was summer on a plate. Continuing with the summer theme, the grilled wings were tossed in a sweet bbq sauce and served atop a cream corn variation. Delectable. The lollipops might have been the star of the show, though. They smelled heavenly and tasted even better. The only (slight) dings I would give is that they were advertised to be served as four and we received 3 and the harissa element was more subdued than I expected. Still, a very satisfying dish. We could stand for a couple of more bites so that's where the burger came in. It's as good as advertised -- served medium with cheddar -- but I could have eaten plates of the seasoned fries that came along with. I am all in for Nashville's new hotel scene. Rather than being a place where tourists rest their heads, the new hotel scene is inviting and invigorating for locals. Bobby has come out of the gate swinging. The next time you find yourself downtown, stop in/by. I think you'll be impressed.

Every dish felt thoughtfully put together, and a few really stood out. I've been on the hunt for more black sesame treats, and the raspberry sherbet with cremolata and salted black sesame seed butter was exactly what I was looking for--the most perfect, not-too-sweet dessert. Creative, balanced, and completely unforgettable. I'd go back just for that. The stracciatella on toast was another standout--simple but incredibly well executed. My second favorite dish was the lightly roasted snap pea with fennel, spring onion, and chili--fresh, vibrant, and packed with flavor. So good. The linguini and clams was decent, but didn't quite hit the same level as the other dishes. It leaned a bit too al dente for my taste, and the flavor felt a little on the bland side. Overall, an incredible dining experience with standout dishes and impeccable service. Try this when you're in Germantown.

From my bar stool, I can see the bar is well stocked with bourbons and whiskeys. I started with the Etch Smoked Old Fashioned: Belle Meade bourbon, smoked simple syrup, orange and a dash of bitters started off my night. The bar is busy with people, all seats are taken. The couple sitting next to me are going to see Bruno Mars, it seems like a nice night to start with a fabulous dinner. I came early to have a drink before my reservation. I feel a tap on my shoulder and there are two women asking for the happy hour drink menu. I offer my seat and they're thanking me and asking to pay for my drink? Everyone is very hospitable in Nashville! I tell the hostess I'm ready to sit and I'm seated at the large chefs counter. It's very smart to have this type of seating, it saves the tables for larger parties, there's no reason for lil ol me to take up a table with four seats. My waitress comes over and I studied the menu before I arrived. I'm starting with the Smoked Carpaccio (think of roast beef strips) Made with New York Strip steak and topped with pickled onion & herb relish, fried garlic chips, lemon almond salt and parmesan. This was an award winning starter dish. The steak strips were very flavorful and the crostini points, I ate this dish like little open faced sandwiches. This would be a great dish to share with a larger party. For my main entree, I ordered the Grilled Filet. The meat was cooked perfectly! On the side the dish was served with parmesan lemon whipped potatoes, and topped with a smoked bone marrow butter as well as asparagus spears. The smoked bone marrow was like pocket aces, a nice touch that elevated the dish. While in Nashville, I highly recommend making a reservation at etch.

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.
