Best meal we’ve had in Nashville! Have heard great things and we weren’t disappointed. Terrific service and food. A tad on the pricey side considering the size of the dish but that’s the only negative. 10/10 recommend.

Every time I go to Germantown Cafe I have a great experience. It is on the top of my list of places I bring friends when they come to visit Nashville. The meatballs, French Onion soup, and salmon are my favorite! Cant wait to return soon!

Came for dinner during Valentine’s Day and had a good time. Everything was decorated related to the holiday with proper intimate lighting which made it perfect for a date night. The ambience was great, although it was kind of loud most of the time, it was manageable. Had to pay for parking somewhere else even though I had a reserved parking spot. Would visit again.
