    The salmon was good but the pork chop was absolutely amazing!!! The lobster bisque was the best I’ve ever had! It was the first time seeing a burlesque show and was so entertaining! Definitely will be back!

    Reservation for 6ppl at 9pm. Burlesque show starts at 11. Once the show started, our server suggested we stand along the wall to get a better view. We left our food on the table and went to the suggested wall. We were then kicked out for "blocking the fire exit", leaving our meals on the table.

    Lovely, old fashioned place, great food and music. Took stars off for making us feel rushed. There were lots of empty tables, there was no need for that attitude at these prices.

    First time visiting the famous Skull’s Rainbow Room as it was highly recommended to us while on vacation for the 4th of July in Nashville! We got a table for dinner and our server told us all about the experience that we would receive by hanging out and drinking with them all night! We moved to the bar and stayed to watches the Burlesque show for the never first time for us and just had an absolute blast! Wonderful must have experience when needing something off Broadway! Can’t recommend enough !

    we did the prix fixed dinner for two. Includes a very large steak, potatoes, and brussel sprouts with a shared salad and dessert. We ordered the steak medium and it showed up well done (no pink). While it had good flavor from the compound garlic butter it was way over done. The potatoes were fine but they tasted like plain potatoes. The brussel sprouts were very good and very tasty. The salad was good but nothing special and the dessert (chocolate mousse cake) tasted like a food service think Sysco quality. The music and atmosphere were excellent and the place has a really cool vibe.
