    First class all the way! From the second we walked in until our last bite, we were treated like royalty. The food was so delicious. We had the lobster pot pie, Zuppa de pesce and the filet. We also treated ourselves to a shared Death by chocolate dessert. Our waitress (the somilier) was amazing. We loved the live music and appreciated it not being too loud so we could still chat.

    We love Joe Muer. Bacon wrapped shrimp are amazing as is the crab stuffed flounder. We really enjoyed the trio playing for NYE last night too!

    Our first time and it is an excellent restaurant. We attended on New Year’s Eve and were greeted with a free glass of champagne along with warm smiles. We were early for our reservation, and were welcomed to have a drink at the bar. Our waiter was nice and very knowledgeable with the food and drinks. He made sure we were properly served and our experience was top notch. The food was good. Between the four of us, we had seafood and steaks. All was very good. The steak filet was prepared perfectly. The seafood (lobster, crab, scallops, and sole) was great. One sirloin steak was a little over done. All of the side dishes were really good. And the oysters were terrific too. Desserts were awesome, and we tried four different desserts! (Have to celebrate on New Year’s Eve, right? Finally - our overall experience was terrific. We would definitely recommend this restaurant.

    Went here for NYE with my wife and another couple. Greeted with a flute of champagne and sat at the bar until our table was ready, had an old fashion and it was amazing! Next we were seated and I ordered oysters Rockefeller for an appetizer which was absolutely wonderful, Caesar salad next was delicious, and then I had a filet with scallops which nothing short of perfection. The wait staff and hostesses were knowledgeable, courteous and professional. The manager on duty was awesome also. For me and my wife and our friends we will be back!!!

    This was a disappointing experience all around. Service had some major flaws, including bringing our second course before the dirty dishes had been cleared. Also the gimmick of deboning the dover sole at the table too so long that by the time it was completed, my wife’s dish was cold. These are not normally dealbreakers, but at this price point you expect more from the staff. More importantly, the food was just meh, my Dover sole was absolutely drenched with butter sauce before I had a chance to stop it, and my wife’s sea bass, while beautifully presented, was equally bland. Perhaps our expectations were too high, but there are many other fine dining options in Nashville that are far superior. Not recommended.

    A mixed experience. Some dishes were exceptional and some were unremarkable. Oysters Rockefeller fabulous. Sea scallops mediocre. Side dishes were blah. Sea stew was great. Service was exceptionally slow throughout the service. 6 pm start- 8:35 pm finish without dessert service. Pleasant service but slow. Some very nice high points and some less than stellar points.

    The best fine dining seafood restaurant in Nashville. Elegant setting, excellent service, consistently good food. Even though this is a seafood restaurant they also have steaks and other options.
