 Dining Beneath the Sea |
516 Opry Mills Road Nashville, TN 37214 United States +1 615 514 3474 http://www.aquariumrestaurants... |
The Aquarium Restaurant is the perfect blend between a restaurant and an aquarium attraction. Dining is situated around a 200,000 gallon floor-to-ceiling aquarium filled with over 100 different species of tropical fish and sea life, and every seat is a good seat. The menu includes a variety of surf and turf and the servers are knowledgeable about both the menu and the aquarium. The restaurant is conviently located in the Opry Mills Mall and also includes a bar, souvenir shop, and offers opportunities for students to participate in half-day marine biology programs. Directly across from the restaurant is Stingray Reef, a hands-on exhibit owned and operated by the Aquarium Restaurant. -Lynn-nore Chittom Review © 2007, Wcities |

Romantic Tapas restaurant and bar |

This is no ordinary Tapas restaurant; the Bound'ry infuses life into food.

The menu changes frequently, but standby favorites include Ostrich, Paella, Cajun Veal Chops and Barbeque Chicken-Crawfish Manicotti. The kitchen isn't the only star here. The bar is a premier spot for gathering with old friends or making new ones. The extensive beer selection includes foreign, domestic and micro-brewed beers and fine wines. Review © 2007, Wcities |

231 6th Avenue North inside the Hermitage Hotel Nashville, TN 37219-1903 United States +1 615 345 7111 http://thehermitagehotel.com/s... |
One of the area's finest dining establishments. Special touches include fine linens, candles, crystal and fine china. The quality of food and the exceptional service puts this restaurant in a class of its own. The extensive menu is classic American with a bit of Asian and Cajun influence. Unusual side dishes, such as eggplant fries, and cheese grits add pizzazz to the entrees.

Casually elegant dining |
73 White Bridge Road Suite 130 Nashville, TN 37205 United States +1 615 352 0981 http://www.jalexanders.com/ |
The décor is simple and understated, yet elegant and tasteful. Linen tablecloths, dark woods and glass accents lend themselves well to the romantic atmosphere. Start your meal with an outrageously tasty Caesar salad. Choose one of the fresh seafood entrees or a thick, juicy steak so tender it literally falls off the bone. Southwestern chicken pasta is a hot and spicy selection. Alcohol and soft beverages are served. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Depart from the ordinary |
401 Broadway Nashville, TN 37203 United States +1 615 254 1892 http://www.merchantsrestaurant... |
The brick and glass exterior is a departure from the historic downtown design, and the art deco lighting highlights the wrought iron and copper fixtures inside. Patrons will enjoy the counter seats surrounding the open kitchen. The menu here is the same classic that has made Merchant's famous in the Nashville area: crab cakes, Five-Pepper Chicken and robust beef entrees. The express lunch is still available and an expanded children's menu has been added. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Southern Plantation turned Restaurant |
1400 Murfreesboro Pike Nashville, TN 37217 United States +1 615 367 2777 http://www.neworleansmanor.com/ |
This old plantation house has been the home of the city's finest seafood buffet for over 20 years. Step past the tall white columns, through the double doors and into a piece of Southern history. The tall ceilings and wide windows provide a perfect view of the airplanes taking off from the nearby Nashville airport. It's a strange view from such an elegant establishment, but one glance at the buffet and you will forsake any other sights. Crab legs to lobster, shrimp to prime rib are at the ready. The price is a bit steep, but you can't find this much seafood at this price anywhere else. Dress is business casual, so you can be comfortable in jeans and a polo or a blazer and tie.

Distinctive lunch dishes |
4910 Thoroughbred Lane Merchant Walk Nashville, TN 37027 United States +1 615 370 6477 http://www.nickofthyme.net |
This gourmet deli serves hearty soups and sandwiches that are sure to delight. The light Cream of Vidalia Onion Soup makes lunchtime memorable, seasoned with a bit of oregano. The sandwiches feature fresh meats like turkey, ham and beef, topped with fresh vegetables such as avocados and sun-dried tomatoes. It's not ordinary lunch fare, granted, but the gourmet touch makes a welcome departure from fast food. The cafe has a very friendly, almost festive atmosphere, perfect for casual business lunches.

Elegant steaks and seafood |
2800 Opryland Dr Opryland Hotel Nashville, TN 37214 United States +1 615 871 6848 http://www.gaylordhotels.com/g... |
You may not think of steak houses as romantic, but this restaurant inside the famed Opryland Hotel is more than a steak house. The rich wood accents and mood lighting do have a romantic quality, but you'll really fall in love with the food. Popular menu items include Filet Mignon ($22.95) and Prime Rib ($18.95), but you'll find New York strip, Porterhouse and T-bone steaks as well. Those with an aversion to red meat should try the fresh seafood and poultry dishes. A bottle of the house wine, a lovely chardonnay, runs $18, and the bar serves mixed drinks as well.

A delightful coffee house with obvious European influences. An upscale sandwich shop with creative combinations of meats and breads. A quaint little pasta house with fresh linguine and fettuccini.
