Gray & Dudley

Had heard a lot about Gray & Dudley so figured it would be a great date night spot. Booked a reservation for a Tuesday night dinner. My girlfriend & I showed up and wanted to experience the art galleries they had to offer within the restaurant. Our server was very helpful providing wine recommendations. We grabbed a bottle of wine, filled our glasses, then went and walked around to see the art which was super cool. Never been in a restaurant that had something like that. After the art we sat back down and ordered our food. We got the brussel sprouts and split the steak frites. Honestly I was disappointed with the food. The menu felt pretty limited from the beginning. The brussel sprouts weren't anything special and the steak frites were very bland. Pretty underwhelming considering the cost and the expectation that the restaurant was known for higher quality food.

We all split hush puppies, 3 dips, and Brussels. They were all good. I especially liked the fish dip and hummus. The Brussels went fast- very good and easy to split. I had the market fish snapper. It was prepared as I requested (a bit olive oil as salt) but it was a little dry.Service ok. One person was training another.

Amazing service! Gray & Dudley is a nice restaurant at the base of a hotel downtown Nashville. Small menu and the burger was very good and highly recommend. Fries are the base side but you can substitute.Afterwards stroll through the free art gallery attached or make your way to printers alley!

The front door to this place is a little difficult to find. You have to walk down the alley and the door is at the very end. When our group first walked in, we weren't greeted at all. The bartender and server both saw my group standing at the entrance (nobody was behind the desk) and still continued to not greet us. We stood there for 5 min before anyone acknowledged our presence. It was quite unsettling. Finally we were approached my the manager who was fabulous. He got our table ready and was extremely friendly and chatty. The bartender ended up being our server. Nothing to rave about. She was monotone and seemed like she hated being there. No complaints about her doing her job. Just needs to learn to smile As far as the food. Everything came out in a timely manner. Tasted great. Bloody Mary's you have the option for vodka or tequila base. The burger was cooked perfectly and tasted great.

Stopped here for dinner on our first night in Nashville. Food was good, so were the drinks. Our waitress was very attentive and even suggested some activities in the area. Cute decor as well. Will be coming back when we're visiting again!

Beautiful restaurant, very well decorated and neat spot for dinner however...the service was slow and our duck entree, while being very tasty, came out cold and literally only 2 strips of duck for $40! And barely a side, which was one leak. We ordered the Brussels sprouts which were delicious and the French onion dip - also delicious. The pimento cheese dip was too salty and the fish dip didn't taste like anything. Everything was very overpriced here and I'm still not over duck being so expensive and it looked like half the plate was missing. The presentation of everything was pretty but I definitely wouldn't recommend someone come here if they want to be full.

Gray & Dudley is a very unique restaurant, situated in some sort of art exhibit that you can tour for free afterward. The food was pretty good and the service attentive. Food 4/5:1. Smoked fish schmear (came with pita, housemade potato chips, and toasted french bread slices) 5/5: Wow the schmear is so so delicious. It was perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of saltiness and a lingering hint of smoke after I swallowed each bite. The waiter said there were unlimited refills of the chips, and he gave us a huge refill that made us want to order another schmear. if I ever came back here, I would just order every type of schmear and dip; that would be my dinner. 2. GD burger 3/5: Bread was too thick and not given any special treatment (I would have expected a bit more sear or buttery flavor given that it was supposed to be a gourmet burger). Nothing special. I would probably try some other entree if I returned to the restaurant. 3. Fish with hush puppies 4/5: I have never eaten hush puppies before so I was not sure what to expect. I think they are just balls of cornmeal, so it was nice to dip it into the puree for more flavor. The fish was tender but I don't recall what type of fish it wasCleanliness 5/5: A beautiful space that is well-ventilated. We sat in the non-bar area that was well-lit and had some very unique decorationsArt exhibit: We are not people that understand modern art but we browsed through the exhibit and looked at everything before exiting.Parking: N/A. We walked here from the hotel.

While staying at the C21 I stopped in here (which is the C21 restaurant and bar) one evening for a cocktail as a nightcap, after dinner. The vibe is nice and the décor is modern industrial. They have a nice cocktail list and food menu and the bartender offered decent service, which was fast. Her recommended cocktail was really good, it's called F*&% Love.Prices are fair. Nice place to stop in for a drink and be cozy!

Brunch was delicious! Food was cooked to perfection and their homemade hot biscuits melt in your mouth with amazing jam to accompany them! We sampled many dishes and they were allDelicious! Hidden gem with a fabulous menu!

Great food, service, and great vibe. The drinks are awesome and the food was fantastic. If you're staying in the Bankers Alley hotel, you can't pass this place up. We definitely enjoyed our food and cocktails before heading to The Ryman.
