    Food was good. Service was slow. Food took too long to come out of the kitchen. Dirty dishes sat too long on table. If you are going to charge premium prices, then service needs to match. It did not. Team was trying their best, but there was not enough of them. Won't be back.

    The food was good overall. Service was marginal at best. Our waiter was just too busy. We had to ask for bread. Took too long to get attention at the beginning.

    This is becoming redundant. This place is so good, from the host station, server, bar, piano player, to Manager. This place rocks. We had Sid last night who has a plethora of stories and all product knowledge.. The stone crab, Lobster bisque, clam chowder, caesar salad, Red fish, waygu steak, Dover sole WOW! even the bread service. Mike is a amazing manager welcoming you to and all your guests, and his staff love him. If you have not been there please go you will not be disappointed

    My wife and I recently celebrated our Anniversary at Joe Muer Seafood - Nashville and it was truly a great experience. The staff was exemplary and the seafood was fresh and top-notch. I highly recommend starting the evening with cocktails and/or wine from their extensive offerings. All in all, our evening was outstanding and we consider it a must try for future patrons.
