Lovely atmosphere. They try to upswell you food, the sides are quite large and 1 or 2 are more then enough for 4 people. Very pricy. Steak was very flavorful but very fatty also. I enjoyed mostly the atmosphere. Overpriced.

Hands down the best steak dinner we’ve ever had. The green beans and snap peas were incredible. The mashed potatoes were creamy and delicious. My wife had the filet with bone marrow butter and I had the filet with mushrooms. Melt in your mouth incredible.

The server Tony was very attentive. The drinks were yummy. The side dishes (baked potato and creamed corn) were excellent. The 3 steaks were salty. The Ribeye had little flavor and super tough for medium. The one filet was so salty we had to send it back. Disappointed in the quality of the steaks for a steakhouse. However, if you are looking for ambiance and drinks/appetizers, this place is a winner at the Nashville Gaylord.

Beautiful hotel, where this steakhouse is located, but the tables sit so high, you can only see the nice view if you're down in the lower section, which we were not. The staff were all very friendly, but long between visits (although we've all become accustomed to that with C19 staffing issues). The food was meh at best. Enjoyed the wedge salad. The french onion soup was mediocre. Lobster mashed potatoes were ok, but not particularly flavorful, especially considering they had a lobster soup over the top. We had to send our first filet back as it was over-cooked (we asked for medium rare and got well done). The second try was curiously better seared & salted, but still over-cooked as 'medium rare' goes. We also had the crab stuffed lobster tail, which is hard to screw up considering the lobster really does all the work on flavor. They had about half the tail pulled out for crab topping. The rest of the tail was still tucked in, making it my duty to get it all out (and covering my hands in sticky lobster juices). They brought us a giant chocolate cake slide for our trouble, which was nice (and delicious). If we return to Nashville, we will skip this place. The price & quality don't make it make sense for us.

Amazing service. From the host stand to the supporting staff, Everyone was clearly working to make sure our meal was magical. Our server, from Massachusetts, was especially humorous and attentive, plus we just liked him! Would eat here again and again. I had the butchers cut which was an in house dry aged 12 oz ribeye with bone marrow butter ( AMAZING)! It’s a place you need to try once of you are staying at the Gaylord.

Wasn’t seated until 25 min after our reservation time. Steak was tough and not worth the $$. Baked potato came out covered with butter and sour cream even though I told the waiter I have a dairy allergy. Our friend ordered the special which the waiter said had a raspberry glaze. When it came out, it had no glaze, and the waiter brought marrow butter instead and said the special had changed.

For a steakhouse the steaks were subpar. I would expect the steaks that were served to us come from Applebee’s. We did get the lobster mashed potatoes that were very good.

Great high end steakhouse within Gaylord Opryland Resort. "Outdoor" seating was awesome especially as it became dark - to enjoy the lights and sounds of resort. Great steak (cowboy ribeye), fish (salmon), and sides as well as desserts (coconut and chocolate cakes). Service was professional and superb. Would definitely return for a special dinner!
