It's a great place to eat.More infoMercado by ButchertownPrice: Expensive• Regional Mexican (Baja Med)• South Nashville•4.4
- EElisabethSouth Carolina •6 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoOur server was so great. We felt welcomed and well taken care of. Ordered the perfect amount of food for four of us. Two appetizers and three entrees with two sides. The crispy artichokes were a hit. The mussels and corn bread were delicious. Maybe would have skipped the roasted chicken as it was dry. Be prepared to talk loudly as it's quite noisy. But overall will gladly return with friends who have picky taste in restaurants since I know they will appreciate the experience.More infoAdele'sPrice: Expensive• American• The Gulch & North Gulch•4.7

- KKeeganNashville •4 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoIncredible food, table service, and experience. Christian was an excellent server and made the night so smooth and luxurious. We all had the mini martini flights, easily the best drink value in Nashville. Food was excellent as always, for apps we had the tzaziki and spicy feta, oysters, and chicken potstickers. Prime rib was excellent, cooked perfectly, and a large serving! Great servings for the price point. It was two of our birthdays and we both got a free dessert and free champagne for the table! I love Finch and will be back again. The best happy hour in Nashville by far!More infoThe Finch - NashvillePrice: Moderate• American• The Gulch & North Gulch•4.6
