Melinda PrinceNovember 30, 2014Love the gator tail! Bob loves the elk.. We always enjoy it here. Michaela and Gabby are just going to be happy to eat. An hour and a half wait right now. So everyone is wanting to eat right now.- Chris ParkDecember 31, 2014The food was not only amazing, we had an awesome dining experience thanks to Yvette and her cheerful welcome and attention to details. Definitely one of my favorite restaurants in Nashville.
Linda WhiteSeptember 3, 2015Everything is great here! We always eat here at least once whenever we come to Nashville. The staff are friendly and helpful. You won't go wrong stopping here!
David MartinDecember 31, 2014Our service was amazing (Yvette is the best!) the food was awesome, and I recommend the Ribs and Catfish! Drinks are cheap and the atmosphere is family friendly!
Donna WarfieldMay 4, 2019Their fish is wonderful...The entertainment was very enjoyable and not so loud that you couldn't have a conversation at your dinner table. Great fun place.
Caney Fork has some of the best Catfish I ever eaten and you can get it cooked fried, grilled or blackened. My favorite is blackened, Yummy!! ;-))
Dustin SoperSeptember 30, 2018Not your average Bar and Grill - especially with their "Wild Game" menu! If you're feeling adventurous, try the Cajun Gator Sliders!
Eric RDecember 4, 2021Excellent menu, wonderful customer service experience. Atmosphere was comfortable and relaxing.
Scott VesseyOctober 10, 2017Good food, neat place to eat dead cow.....Josh was our waiter for our visit.....he took good care of us....- Michael HuntleyAugust 29, 2013Ribs were really good and the wife enjoyed the fried catfish. She would've eaten just the corn fritters if she could've.
Carolina RevillaFebruary 9, 2014Awesome place for families, live country music. Get the catfish fritters as a starter- Marc BarhonovichDecember 12, 2011Best BBQ Ribs ib Nashville, Fried Catfish pretty awesome too, and we could roast mashmellows at our table and make our own S'Mores - really fun place.
David MyersMarch 18, 2010I got the sirloin...at a fried fish joint! It was really good. I teamed it up with fried okra, navy beans, and GREAT live bluegrass music! What a great joint to take the fam to!
Benjamin SandersMay 14, 2016Corn Fritters were awesome, and the Caney Fork Chicken was ok. Sides were nothing to write home about. Atmosphere was cozy, and service was decent.
Dustin HumannDecember 24, 2013I'm told the catfish is exquisite, however I don't like seafood. Tried the bison, amazing!
N JDecember 6, 2015Our server was great...too bad today was his last day. Food was average. Good variety and great wild game selection.
Seth CourrégéNovember 22, 2013No craft beers here if that's something you care about. Nothing on tap, either, just bottles of the standard stuff. Bud, Bud Light, Miller, Michelob, Corona, Blue Moon.
- You can tell the guests sure do love the s'mores!!!
David LaffertyJuly 1, 2011Fried pickles are awesome. Homemade old fashioned banana pudding to die for
Jason HarmonOctober 24, 2010Try the Fried Green Tomatoes or Green Beans, and the Shrimp & Grits is AMAZING!!- Make sure you try the corn fritters you get before your meal. SO GOOD!!
Collin VMay 29, 2014Don't eat here. Colleague found a hair in her salad, sent it back, then found - I kid you not - a dead moth. Of course they comped her meal, but we never saw the manager. Seriously, don't eat here!
