Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in Goodlettsville

My last visit to Frankie’s was a while ago, and it wasn’t a positive one. However, we decided to go back in hopes that things have changed. I’m happy with my decision, as things were better. The staff was very friendly, accommodating, and informative. The wine (which this time was a normal wine pour) was delicious. The Caesar salad was large and definitely shareable. My only complaint was that the cavatelli was overly salty which is likely a cooking error. However, my father seemed to like it very much and ate a majority of his plate. The meatballs were so good, and the bread and olive oil was good as well. I’m so happy I gave it another shot, I’ll be returning in the future.

We had a party of 4, sat outside in the heated patio. Very comfortable and cozy. 2 of us got the shrimp and grits. Savory sauce, really good. My husband got the scallops. He enjoyed them, good flavor but there were only 3 scallops. Would go back.

Mockingbird is always a charming experience. Our most recent trip was on Valentines Day. The table had a live flame tea light and rose petals on it. My only complaint was that our server was taking care of a large table of older women that kept him busy and not as attentive to us as I would’ve liked. Appetizer didn’t come before the food but I didn’t dock the rating for that for reasons already stated. Food was excellent- we got Pasta La Vista, Tatchos, and Bulgogi Hanger Steak and they were all fantastic. The ambience is perfect - dimly lit and well decorated. We will be back.

It was Valentine's Day - nevertheless we were seated immediately but never with the sense we were being rushed to make way for the crowd. The food was excellent and inventive - the valet had our car in no time and it made a day that is often perfunctory fell special.

For being out in the burbs this is legendary wood-fired pizza!
