    The filet was melt-in-your-mouth tender with a wonderful flavor! And the creme brûlée was perfect! Service was excellent! It’s dark n he evening, so very romantic but you may need a flashlight to read the menu! 😆

    Definitely recommend! This is one of my top 3 places in the world for a great filet mignon! I've been here twice and both times were fabulous. The first time, I was with a group of Army Veterans and the staff overwhelming thanked us for our service and treated our group so great! The second time I came for an anniversary date and had the same awesome experience. I will say this most recent time, the only thing I would recommend is that the staff/chef time the main course better after the appetizer/salad. Our main course came way too quickly and we hadn't finished our salad when our steak had arrived. Overall though I love this place and will come again for sure!

    The food was good however We got the 30oz porterhouse to share. It didn't have alot of flavor. And it was so big that it wasn't cooked right. It wasn't worth $137. We wish we would've gotten the new York strips. The sides and service were fantastic.

    I booked this restaurant for my 32nd anniversary dinner with my husband. The ambiance was excellent. We had privacy due to the seating layout. The waiter was exceptional. He had a great personality, positive energy and was respectful. The food was excellent and the plating was nice.

    The food was to die for! I got a Cabernet Reduction sauce to go with my steak, and I didn’t use it for my steak at all, as the flavor on the steak was perfect by itself.

    Very nice setting and great food. (Lobster bisque was amazing). Service was excellent as well. It does get a little noisy, and there didn't seem to be a dress code enforced for guests. These are things I might ask for in the price range here, but overall a great place for a dinner date with someone special.

    Let me start by saying Sam was amazing. His knowledge of the menu made every item sound like something I needed to try. The seafood tower was very fresh with a variety of sauces. The cheese platter selection was perfectly balanced. Our party had the Wagyu filet, New York strip, zucchini pasta, & french onion soup. I would recommend them all. The mac & cheese and mashed potatoes also get a thumbs up. The meal was a memorable experience thanks to the amazing food and staff.

    I ate at multiple restaurants in the Gaylord & this was by far my favorite. There was 3 of us, 3 steaks of some sort & 3 sides for the table. The steak melted in my mouth like butter it was so good. The wait staff was excellent & the views & ambiance of the hotel from our table was great. I recommend this restaurant 10/10. Just know you’re paying above average prices in an above average resort.

    Absolutely cheated by the Old Hickory. Server recommended bottle of wine and led us to believe it was $65. Turns out is was $250 + 18% liquor tax. After the 20% tip we left, that bottle cost us $354. Server failed to mention any of this. Terrible surprise that ruined our trip. Thanks a lot Gaylord Opryland.

    I will start by saying you probably will not find a better atmosphere for dining. The place is beautiful and the service was good The down side started with drinks. My wife's drink option (Cosmopolitan) was terrible but she drank it thinking they gave her the Cos-No-politan (non-alcohol). There was no hint if alcohol. The second drink came out on the rocks (which it shouldn't have). That was sent back and finally a traditional Cosmo was served. I ordered the rib-eye which was tasty but was more grissle than meat...very disappointing. The presentation of our meal was good and my wife enjoyed the filet she ordered.

    My wife and I were out for her birthday. The food and atmosphere was amazing. Our server was atrocious. He was not attentive, glasses were rarely refilled, and he only checked on us one time during our time at the steakhouse. You just expect more when you are paying $300 for a dinner.

    Decent meal in a nice setting. Not great enough to make a trek out to Gaylord to eat here, but good if you are staying in the hotel. If you are looking for a terrific steakhouse, go downtown. Dishes are on the expensive side and not much flavor as you would expect. Coconut cake, which we shared was dry and tasted “day or two old” and the presentation was a mess. Steaks are cooked to order and service is pleasant and efficient.

    Food and ambiance was good. Lobster bisque was excellent and poured over right at table - pretty cool. Seafood platter and steaks were good. Zuchini pasta was too salty to eat. I would’ve rated this restaurant better, but we were celebrating an anniversary and a birthday and though they had notes on these events at the hostess stand, there was not a mention of it or anything special done by our server during the meal. Very disappointing for a 400$ meal for 3 adults, 2 kids. I’m not sure the point of even mentioning it, if there is nothing made of what you are celebrating.
