Boqueria Fifth + Broadway

Would have loved to have a real Spanish Paella, but not this time. We shared a Basque Salad, Steamed Mussels, and a Mushroom flatbread, and an Orange Olive oil cake for dessert. The best were the Mussels of course. The cake was close behind, but only because of a very tart/sweet sauce (We would not have liked the cake by itself). The salad was just a salad and the flatbread was mostly onion (a whole one?). Now I love onions but truth-in-naming would have been Onion flatbread.This is NOT cheap - $90, including a beer and tip! We didn't like it enough to recommend it to you, mainly for that reason, though we noted it was very busy/popular. Note, that the on-line menu differs from the restaurant menu. The service is very good, and it's across the street from the Ryman (not really 5th and Broadway, as its name suggests). The ambience is basically a hipster bar/restaurant.

First timer so I ordered The Classics. Looking at the a la carte tapas menu, pretty much all of them can be called classic Spanish tapas. Unfortunately none of my favorites were included with The Classics. Everything I did get was well executed though I might have preferred more seasoning of the proteins like the hamburger and lamb skewers. I would have loved to try the gambas, pulpo, mejillones. A missing item that I've loved at other tapas restaurants is a garlic soup. Next time I'm going a la carte.

I should've listened to my waiter when he mentioned the serving sizes. I ordered 3 small plates, but I was full after the mussels. Nonetheless, I still ate my other dishes and loved everything. While the food was top tier, the service is the true reason for my review. From the moment I walked in, I received phenomenal service and would most definitely recommend this place to anyone.

First walking in, the restaurant is aesthetically pleasing from the upholstery, decor and bar area. My husband and parents went in on a Saturday and got right in after deciding to sit at the bar. The staff was very attentive and knowledgable about the menu items and drinks. The flatbread and octopus plate was amazing. The Tuna crudo wasn't bad, but I've been spoiled with good fish in Hawaiʻi. My dad and husband loved the steak plate.

Absolutely loved this place! Such a beautiful atmosphere, wonderful service, and delicious food. It was super easy to make reservations and loved the tapas style plates with great suggestions from the waiter. Will be back for sure! Lastly, great happy hour choices!

The food was delicious, good drink deals including bottomless mimosas. Great service and overall good ambiance.

We went to Boqueria for the first time and I'm so happy we did. Not only was the chef's tasting menu completely delicious and worth the money, but the service was amazing and the ambiance is top notch. I loved how quiet it was inside despite being very busy outside - like a great little oasis from the loud music and noise that is Broadway. We enjoyed a few happy hour items before we dove into the chefs tasting menu, and we left so full. I highly recommend stopping in if you're in Nashville.

This is a nice restaurant, the staff were friendly and it was clean. I absolutely loved my drinks and the lamb skewers. I recommend and will return when I come again.

Named after the famous and vast market of Barcelona, Boqueria is a small chain aiming to bring a fun tapas experience to the US. As one of the ten locations in the US, Boqueria originated in the Flatiron district of NYC and successfully replicated the model across the country. Certainly, the market for tapas has gotten a lot more mature and selective since the NYC debut.If there is a standout dish at the restaurant, it is undoubtedly the lamb skewers. Loaded up with flavor of the meat, perfectly balanced by pickled onions and cooked to a delicate texture, it's a remarkable preparation that's worth every penny. The garlic shrimp are an ok dish, not particularly fresh or flavorful, but spicy. The amount of bread served throughout the meal felt a bit on the extreme side, but the bread is spectacular. Brussels spouts are pleasant, yet largely unremarkable. They don't need to be either. Service is attentive.As a whole, a great restaurant to grab tapas.

Food was really good. I ordered the Flatbread with mushrooms, onions, and garlic. Needless to say it was filled with flavor!Our server was friendly and the restaurant was clean, spacious and open air.
