Vid W.Vid Wehr: Got the catfish sandwich. Not very flavorful, small piece of fish disguised by a big bed of lettuce underneath. The French fries were better than the sandwich and I'm not a huge French fry fan.

Larry B.Larry Bell: The catfish and shrimp are great. The fried oysters were the best that I have found in Nashville. They really take care of you and make you feel welcome.

Ravey B.Ravey Baby: Really good food & service. Catfish, chicken, hush puppies, cole slaw, sweet tea... So good. Put me in a food coma

Vivek S.Vivek Surti: Roast beef everyday. Fried catfish on Wed/Fri is the best

Brent J.Brent Jarreau: Catfish is awesome. Green beans, mac&cheese, mashed potatoes... Badass. I tried the "life-changing choc pie" that others have raves about... It was good, but not life-changing good. I will be back!!

Natalie J.Natalie Jenkins: This food was not as great as it seems. Their green beans are very salty and the sweet tea is way to sweet as well as the pie. The only thing I really liked was the fried catfish and the mac n cheese

Michelle S.Michelle S: Catfish appetizer was good, fried pickles were all breading. Salmon was cooked well but sauce was too sweet and base was just butter and cream. Go for the plain salmon not the one with bbq.

Jonathan E.Jonathan Eatherly: Best meal I had in Nashville. Amazing bourbon and rye selection. Ordered all of the first courses and three entrees which all delivered. I will always remember the catfish main course.

Serena S.Serena Simmons: Everything was sooo good. Country style steak with pepper gravy, catfish with veggies, and the burger was just awesome. Great mix of spices and flavor in an awesome setting.

Raul V.Raul Valle: Nice ambiance. Oysters are a good idea, but poorly executed: too much plain cream, miss bit of acidity and splash of spice. Catfish is good but oversalted
