    Just off of Broadway in Nashville, the place was DEAD on a Tuesday night. That said, service was pretty slow. While the bar area was decorated nicely, was a little disappointing that the bourbon / whiskey options were limited to bottom-shelf options only. Food was tasty, and the mini-cake for dessert was VERY good.

    We ordered 2 French dips with no horse radish. One came right, one did not. They remade the 2nd one but it took 30 minutes! Everyone was done with their food by the time the other one came. If the restaurant was busy I would’ve understood but it wasn’t at ALL. We were 1 of 2 tables occupied in there. Service sucks

    Reserved the Wonder Room for a 50 birthday celebration and they did not disappoint. The food was wonderful and it was not expensive. Portions were perfect, too! They came out with complimentary Chambongs for everyone to celebrate the birthdays. It was a lot of fun! There was also a DJ playing who was amazing that provided a good vibe while dining. Our waitress was fantastic. There were 6 in our party and all of us enjoyed the experience! Definitely recommend and will visit again. LOVE!

    The Layer Cake was absolutely amazing! The food was delicious, the ambiance and interior were beautiful and the mimosa tower was awesome. We took a lot of pictures inside as well since it was picturesque. The service was exceptional, we loved our waiter and how quiet it was inside. I definitely recommend The Layer Cake!

    Host brought us waters and all four of them had stuff floating in them. We waited 10 minutes and waited never came to the table, so we ended up leaving without even seeing another person who worked there. Overhyped Instagram nonsense.

    We went for brunch at 1030am Saturday 3/11 for a reservation for a birthday. All the special requests were not honored, we asked for a cake to be ready, and we were set at a table right in front of the server station doors at a table that upon first look was dirty but was actually very beat up. Our food , both appetizer and entrees, were cold by the time it came to our table, we had paid for 1 hour worth of parking at $16 and did not have the option to send our food back without spending another $16. Our Server was mostly absent during our meal and did not run our food entrees which resulted in them being cold. The overall cost of the food was high for the low quality of the product.

    Group of us wanted to go for a nice supper on the last night of our trip. Beautiful looking restaurant but man was it PAINFUL. We were there for almost 3 hours. The food came and was just medium at best. My soup was room temp. One of our popcorn chicken meals came raw and which then grossed the rest of us out. Everything including drinks was super slow. The final bills were a gong show. We did get some good pictures, but that was it. I would not return.

    Loved everything about The Layer Cake! My friends and I had a reservation on a Friday night for 7 people, and we were seated right away. The ambiance was amazing!! Food was good, not outstanding, but it was good bar food. The Cherry Lounge in the basement is their new speakeasy and it was the perfect place to go after our meal. 10/10 would recommend.

    If you’re looking for an Instagramable photo opp, this place checks that box. Service was good, no complaints! If food and drinks are something you’re looking for, this is not the place for you. The drinks were not great, both mixed and wine. The food was average, and the cake tasted like a grocery store cake. Overall, underwhelming.
