Food was amazing..loved the jam. Sausage gravy excellent
The strawberry lemonade is amazing. The use the same puree in the mimosas and is good. Food was very good, just busy and packed.
Food was fantastic and fast service. Super loud but that’s to be expected in Nashville. Highly recommend this restaurant!!
What a hidden gem this place is! Breakfast here was honestly amazing with so many great options. The ham really stood out—super tasty without being overly salty. The fried pork chop was a highlight too, just so good. The fresh fruit tasted super clean and refreshing, and the biscuits felt homemade and warm, like comfort food done right. Overall, just a really satisfying breakfast spot I’d happily return to again.
Absolutely grateful our customer service and the environment is just perfect. I’ve been into a lot of restaurants with this and its in my top 5 whenever ever I come back to Nashville. Melissa F was great and amazing person!
The waitress was super nice. Can't remember her name but she worked on Sunday 22 at the bar. She is young girl with dark hair. She was super sweet,nice, and friendly. Let's not talk about the food. It was so much and so good. Everything was nice and hot. I recommend this place and will go back whenever I go back to Nashville.
My husband and I loved this history themed restaurant. We were visiting from Florida and went for brunch on an early Thursday morning. There was no wait and we were seated immediately. The food was delicious and classic American brunch fare. Our waitress was kind and gave me a small chocolate drink with sprinkles as she saw from my ID that it was recently my birthday. The "powder room" was clean and also in line with the theme. If you're looking for a delicious meal and a unique themed location, look no further than here.
Wonderful breakfast spot in downtown Nashville. Walking distance from many hotels. Nice military theme and honor. Food was fantastic and our host and server were super friendly and responsive. Will definitely eat there again when in town.
Great diner, great staff, great food…. Just visit 417 Union to experience it for yourself. We love this place and are a family of 5, 3 young boys and mom and pop. I was buzzing to explore Nash with the coffee they had and the food was noteworthy.
Best pancakes I ate here! So fluffy and yet so tasty! The blueberry lemon ones are out of this world, perfect amont of sweet and soury. Definately come here if you wish to have some good american pancakes. The building itself gives a very soecial vibe as well.
