I thought the food was mediocre. The famous white bean soup from years ago was bland.

Excellent place to eat in Nashville 8/24/2011

My husband, son and I had dinner at Nero's Grill on a recent trip to Nashville. We had a great experience. From appetizer to dessert, the food was terrific and the service was exceptional. It was a very friendly and warm place. I especially like the bar area with the piano. What a lovely place. I would definately recommend going to Nero's Grill and will stop in again when we visit our son who attends college in Nashville. more

All kids love Nero's Grill !! 8/12/2011

I had dinner this week with my family at Nero's Grill. Three adults, and my 8 year old niece and 11 year old son. My son , who does not like seafood at all, ate most of my entire crab cake dinner and almost all of his kids meal too ! My niece also cleaned her plate. All of the food was very good and our server, Chance, was excellent. ! Judy, the owner, stopped by our table and made us all feel very special. Now, when we go out to eat and ask the kids where they want to go.... they all yell ""Nero's please"" !! more

Good dinner 7/29/2011

Steak and biscuits were great. Sounded good so thought I'd try something new and I'm glad I did. Meat was cooked perfectly and how can you go wrong with a good biscuit. more

Great place to visit with friends! 7/29/2011

Business Meeting 7/29/2011

Called Nero's to make a reservation for a business dinner. The hostess suggested a private dining room. The atmosphere was great. Everyone enjoyed their food I had the Buffalo Tenderloin and it was Amazing. My customers enjoyed being able to discuss business openly and we got the deal done. I'll be back .... Thanks more

Mother's Day Buffet 5/8/2011

The Mother's day buffet while containing abundant food choices, was extremely overpriced. Our bill was $175 with tip for 4 adults and 1 child, and we don't drink alcohol. I do enjoy dining there for lunch on occasion where the prices are much more in line with the quality of the food, but I will never return for Mother's Day. more

You cannot go wrong with Nero's 12/29/2010

Nero's has become my favorite restaurant! I love the cajun bowtie pasta, and the rib rolls are amazing for lunch. The 10 In 10 Lunch Menu is perfect for me when I've got to get back to work. They promise to have those menu items out in 10 minutes, or it's free. And it's always been out in 10 minutes for me. I think my favorite part is the staff though. They are so friendly. I go in there a lot and just say ""What should I have for dinner?"" and they have never suggested something that wasn't PERFECT. I'll be back weekly, for sure. more

Much better places to eat. 12/22/2010

So many better restaurants in Nashville. Decor is dated and everyone seemed to be 60+. Food was ok. Corn cakes were good but greasy, meat was tough and chewy. Chips were good. We didn't think it was worth the money and won't be back. more

Nero's Grill A Must stop Place to eat! 4/21/2010

I walked into this restaurant and found the people very inviting. I received home town treatment with 5 star class. The food was amazing (you have to try the chips they make em them selves!!) the servers were only there to make my visit a top shelf experience. I am so glad I found Nero's!! I even Spotted Tim Tebow there who was apparently in town for a speech. I imagine with class and elegance like this you would expect the most elite of Nashville and people who just love great food, music, and service to visit a place like this. Thanks John for a great place to visit! Pros: Atmosphere and Ambiance Cons: Hope I can find it again more

An Amazing Dining Experience 12/16/2009

Do you know that feeling you get when you walk into your mother's home and smell the wonderful aromas coming from the kitchen and feel the warmth that radiates from those walls...this is the feeling I had when I walked into Nero's. My date and I were greeted warmly at the door and seated promptly. Our server was a beautiful young lady named Addie and she was amazing. Her knowedge of the menu was impressive and she made us feel ""at home"" which was such a welcome feeling after a stressful work day.There was a roaring fire in the fireplace and we were served the famous white bean soup and corncakes.The owner, John Griswold stopped by to personally check on our service and was a delight to meet. We were later honored to meet ""Nero"" himself and I can not begin to describe what a pleasure it was to meet this charming southern gentleman.... Our meal was prepared to perfection and we topped off our meal with an unbelievable warm chocolate cake. Pros: Exceptional service Cons: Too many wonderful food items to have to choose from more

Rude! 7/27/2009

I went in there and asked the hostess a simple question. The hostess (an older lady) was very snotty to me. Her attitude was as if I should be glad that they allowed me in. I wasn't dressed poorly. Who do you think you are??? The French Laundry? Seriously guys. Does it hurt to be pleasent? Anyway, I turned around and walked out, called my friends that I was meeting there and we elected to go elsewhere. Clearly you guys think very highly of yourselves. Good luck with that. I won't be back. more

Best Mother's Day Ever 5/13/2009

There were nine of us for brunch on Sunday on what will most likely be my Mother's last Mother's Day. Her failing health has made it very difficult to get her out and your staff made every effort for it to be a lovely and dignified occasion. The food was awesome as always,never lets us down. Thank you for the rose, the servers, especially William and the lovely complimentary group photo, which we shall cherish. So glad you all are here. Kathy Gossett and family Pros: Excellent service from arrival until departure more

Poor experience -- and on Mother's Day! 5/10/2009

My wife, son and I dined at Nero's Grill on Easter Sunday and were positive enough about that experience to return on Mother's Day. We noticed a distinctly different atmosphere; thing were hurried, even hectic. We were rushed into the restaurant, seated and had our drink order taken. After that we hardly saw our server-- except to have our plates and cutlery removed. I returned from the restroom to find EVERYTHING gone. In brief, we got what my father called 'the bum's rush."" The bill came to $99.06 (definitely not a bargain for the standard Sunday buffet fare Nero's provides). The crowning indignity was truly sad: my wife let the place without a rose (every other mother got one). This produced tears, I am sorry to say. We will not return to Nero's Grill. Pros: Decent but definitley not great food Cons: Rushed, indifferent service more

AMAZING FOOD & SERVICE 5/1/2009

Nero's Grill is one of my favorite Restaurants. This surprises many people because I live all the way in California! When I make my once a year trip to Nashville you can expect to see me there 2-3 times! =) Cause I live in California I had never tried a corn cake before but now it is one of my favorite things to eat! more

Best Food & Service in town!!! 4/25/2009

The service was unbelievable. Our server, Herman, rocks! My husband & I had the grilled parmesan oysters. We could have eaten this all night it was so delicious & fresh. We finished it before the shells had time to cool! Then their crispy corn cakes were fried to perfection & the salads were good also. My husband had the special stuffed halibut. It couldn't have been anymore tasty with the shrimp, tomatoes & spinach stuffed in a puff pastry. It just melted in your mouth & everything was fresh as usual. I had a filet stuffed with mushrooms in a red wine demi-glace with carmelized onion & I savored every bite. This was my 4th time to eat here & I haven't been disappointed yet. Our 9 yr. old enjoys it too. I could eat here every day. I'm trying to persuade my husband to bring me for the mother's Day brunch. It sounds fantabulous! Pros: friendly service & fabulous food Cons: None! more

when you can have great food and good wine served by a knowledgable and great server like i had for my birthday dinner why would you go any place else It was my first time dining at Neros but it won't be the last.

Great food 3/14/2009

The restuarant is beautiful, the food couldn't have been better. So happened to be a special on our dinners which we didn't expect. That was great. The waiter was very attentive. When the bill came, I just looked at the bottom total and added a little over 20% tip. My husband asked me how much our dinner came to and when I told him he looked at the bill and saw the waiter had already added a 33% tip so he almost got over 55% and there were only three of us at the table. Are we not suppose to make that decision? Pros: Delicious steak and the bread was very good Cons: Surprise on the bill more
