AMAZING!Arrived in Nashville for a couple days - and happened upon the Skull's Rainbow Room. Made a reservation (same evening)...and arrived to be seated in the FRONT ROW!! Sitting stage-side...we enjoyed the short ribs and pork chop...with a Caesar salad as starter. While the Caesar was pretty heavily dressed, it was tasty. Brussels were pretty good too. Music was amazing!Highly recommend.

I'll be honest--the name grabbed my attention initially. I was looking for something fun to do while visiting family in town. It was my first time in Nashville and while I love live music, Country isn't typically my thing. When I looked up Skull's Rainbow Room, I was shocked to hear about its long standing existence, bringing in big names like Elvis & Johnny Cash as visitors. As a lover of burlesque, I decided to give it a try! It was a Friday night and I wasn't sure how early to show up. They don't take reservations for their burlesque shows. My sister and I showed up 30 min early for the 11pm show and got in no problem. It was busy but not full. We had just enough time to order a drink from the bar and take a spot near the walkway of the stage (the show is all standing room only, unless you made dinner reservations). The bartenders were great--wonderful service, cracking jokes, made us feel at home. Next time I would love to make dinner reservations for the show because: a) the food looked amazing - we were drooling as plates passed us by & b) those sitting got table service for additional drinks & c) they got to sit !All the performers were fabulous. First the MC and her beautiful voice, making jokes to get the crowd loosened up. Plus I loved her sexy backup dancers--all dancing in unison with the MC was impressive! All the individual burlesque acts were impressive in their own right. The most unique act was the sword swallower--something I'd never seen live before! The whole experience was great. I would definitely recommend Skulls Rainbow Room burlesque show to anyone!

Wow, this is an EASY FIVE STARS! Our meal was outstanding. We have eaten at many nice places and I would say this place even easily out does nice steakhouses like Gordon Ramsay. First off; a simple house salad with a Dijon vinaigrette was fresh and a great starter. The short rib was so tender it is served with a butter knife. Lastly, and the star of the show, the pork chop. Wow, amazing, outstanding I don't even know what to say. All I can say is, I have never had a pork chop like this. It is a pretty penny for $55 for a pork chop but I would say it is worth it. Aside from the food, the atmosphere is nice but the jazz music we had tonight was awesome. I never even knew I liked to listen to jazz but I would come back in a second to listen again.

We had a great dinner at Skull's. It was recommended to us because we had a large group and they take reservations for large parties and it did not disappoint! I think between the 12 of us we ordered almost everything on the menu and everybody was very happy. One of the standout items was the blue cheese wedge salad, which I will be dreaming about until the next time I'm in Nashville! The music put you in a 1920s style restaurant, which was different from the Honky Tonk music in Nashville, but this felt very high-end and nice! We will definitely be going back and recommending this to our friends!

Heaven had the best impression upon walking in, quickly sat and Everything was great! Espresso martini from Allen was amazing, shaken well with that foam, he also kept me well entertained. I've came back for that a couple times. Tuna tartare was ok, the crema was a bit salty/bitter/tangy and over powering for the people who love the fresh fish, wish it had avocado and cilantro instead.

Wow this place is absolutely amazing. I cannot recommend this enough and I'm honestly so sad we haven't come here sooner. The history about this place and the food makes it so incredible. The prime rib and rack of lamb were to die for. Also, our waitress Anna was absolutely fantastic. She led us through the menu so well and we had the best experience!!

This place was amazing! Some of the rowdy's from Boardwalk made their way over, but it didn't take away from the laidback vibe. I ate some tuna tartar and drank a couple of rusty nails.

This was the highlight of our trip. We cane to celebrate our Anniversary and we were treated like royalty. The waitress was amazing and sent over complimentary champagne. Our meal was one of the best things we ate in Nashville. We had the eggplant for appetizer and the double cut pork chop and scallops as our meals. Top notch dinner. And the musicians blew us away. They made the night special. I highly recommend the Skulls Rainbow Room for a special dinner.

Website needs to add that jazz starts at 7:30pm. I planned my Nashville trip several months in advance and knowing I wanted to hear live jazz I booked a reservation at Skulls Rainbow two weeks prior as soon as I could and exactly when the "live music" is supposed to start according to their website. NO WHERE on their website does it say that jazz starts at 7:30pm. A piano player started at 5:15pm when we arrived. That was frustrating. He was fine, not much of a singer but good pianist. Obviously we couldn't stay for several hours waiting for the jazz. Very disappointed. I can't give less than 4 stars because the food was great. Service was nice. Website was bogus though.
