The Rutledge Downtown Nashville

This restaurant was such a nice surprise. I had the seasonal pasta, Mexican Street Corn pasta, and those flavors were legit! We got a giant booth and sunk in to enjoy it all. The artichoke dip was running and not flavorful. Our waitress was kind, welcoming, and accommodating. We wrapped up the evening with two desserts: chocolate cake and lemon cake. The lemon cake was all sorts of yum, but the chocolate cake was underwhelming.

Really terrible food. A couple of items we got were decent/good but a couple were so bad, I can't justify it. The waiter specifically recommended the rotisserie chicken. I wanted pizza or sushi but he said the salmon and chicken were the best. Said the pizza is bad. I said ok. Me and my one friend got the chicken as our entree. It was like eating a leather cowboy boot- both of us didnt like itThe appetizers were decent, my starter caesar salad was good (its a $14 side salad- it shouldn't be hard to make and it should be good) Drinks were decent but way overpriced and the menu's had the wrong prices. My drink was $12 on the menu and $16 on my reciept...update the menu? its a piece of computer paper. Just print out the new prices for transparentcy. Overall, as a group experience, I would give it a 5/10. Wouldn't go back, but if you're looking to go- ask the server for a recommendation and then pick SOMETHING ELSE. Also, I actually let our server know that our entrees were gross and not edible and he did nothing about it- terrible. The ambiance is beautiful but unfortunately I cant eat or drink it

Steve, our server, remembered us by name and we enjoyed every entrée and drink he suggested. I had a Paloma the girls had fresh strawberry, mint wine, spritzer and my buddy had a bourbon drink made with Tennessee, honey and lemon and the entrée was fantastic. I had Wienerschnitzel my friend had tuna the appetizers were amazing, the wine that we paired with the meal was from Italy and it was fantastic and the desserts were to die for we are definitely coming back

I've had this place on my to-try list for awhile and I'm so glad I got to go. The food and service was great on a Thursday night around 8:30. It was not crowded at all and everything came out at a decent time. Highly recommend the wontons! Can't wait to try their brunch too.

Had such a great time here! The waitress was such a joy and so attentive!! The food and cocktails as well were delicious! The music choice and overall vibe of the place was so fun and lively!

I just love the entire posh vibe here. I ordered the avocado toast with a side a fries. The avocado toast was so good and so filling. The fries were a generous portion and so crispy. Writing this makes me want to go back. Just make sure you have a resy, so you can ensure you'll get a table. we went for brunch!

The first thing that blows you away is the AMBIANCE! The decor is immaculate- down to the lighting, silver accents , led lights , and art ! The bar sits in the middle of the restaurant with dining on each side . The restaurant sits on two level with dining on the top . Me and my husband dined here for Saturday brunch. We were greeted by the hostess CC. She was warm , friendly and professional. Our server was McKinsey - she was attentive , friendly, and did an awesome job walking us through the menu . My husband ordered the breakfast board and of course I nibbled on his plate a bit , this is a MUST to try on the menu . The smoked salmon is high quality and very fresh . The bacon was thick cut and the waffles were delicious. I had bacon and eggs . The bacon was a different cut than what was on the breakfast board and the eggs could have been cooked a little harder in my opinion. The biscuit and potatoes were delicious and McKinsey brought out some strawberry Jam for me . Now - the libations...I had the mimosa flight and had tons of champagne left so it was well worth the price because you mix it yourself . ..and the Moët vending machine- I loved the idea of this ! You purchase a token and use the token to purchase a miniature bottle of Moët ! The restaurant was also beautifully decorated for the holiday season.

I got the salmon with Brussel sprout, lobster bites and lobster bisque. The salmon and Brussels were delicious! My lobster bisque come out cold but it was good. The lobster bites were amazing! Other than my soup being cold, our waiter was great! The restaurant was super cute.

This is review for the speakeasy at The Rutledge, Anonymous. It was a pleasant surprise and fun experience talking to Josh about alcohol anxiety te artistry of mixology. It's dark, moody, modern, and mature. Josh was knowledgeable and hospitable. I told him that my favorite cocktail was a Paloma and he asked me if I wanted to make it with some Fall flavor. BUT IF COURSE I DID! I enjoyed my drink and my best friend loved hers. I recommend that anyone who really wants a masterful cocktail experience with premium alcohols, artistry, and an intimate atmosphere come here. Like most people who've been in Nashville a long time, going downtown is like nails on a chalkboard but this made the spooky season speak easy crawl worth it alone! I love it enough to come back downtown.

OH my GOD this place is unbelievable! The food, the people the ambiance! The best restaurante in Nashville!!!! Wow Try the strawberry salad!!!
