Our server Lindsay was an absolute sweetheart and fantastic throughout the entire meal. The manager was extremely attentive and kind, touching our table 3 times. I will be recommending this restaurant to everyone I know! More infoThe Henry - NashvillePrice: Moderate• American• Belmont / Hillsboro•4.8
- LleighVIPNorthwest Florida •3 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoIberian Pig 100% delivered on all the basics and then some - great flavors, great ambiance, interesting combinations. We came with an early reservation and got to try the happy hour queso/charcuterie combo (solid, uncontroversial), which like the grilled cheese were our least faves... just ok. Broccolini, with its piquant chimichurri, and the albondigas (meatballs) were the best, the patatas had a similar smoky paprika sauce. More thumbs up for risotto, empanadas, and the burger we split. We loved the taste of the carrots but several were so 'al dente' they were basically raw, but the server (who was great) was quick to take them off the bill. Def going back - fun place. Only regret is that we didn't have 10 more people at our table so we could try more stuff... always get too full before you can order all the things you want.More infoIberian Pig - NashvillePrice: Moderate• Spanish• The Gulch•4.8
- DDianeVIPChicago / Illinois •21 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoAbsolutely amazing dinner at the Hampton Social!! Beautiful restaurant and also great views of the city and the bridge. Service was fast and friendly. They even bought us champagne for our anniversary. As for the food - the shrimp and crab bruschetta is a must have. Oysters were delicious and the burger is one of the best we’ve ever had. For dessert, the banana foster on a chocolate chip waffle is worth every calorie. Just get it! We cannot wait to come back and try the brunch!More infoThe Hampton Social - NashvillePrice: Moderate• American• Downtown•4.7
