    Noko was fantastic and our waiter Mitch was the man. Really appreciate his knowledge and attention to detail on our entire experience. It was our first time and we will definitely be coming back. My wife and I guy 7 different dishes and Mitch gifted us one he didn’t want us to miss out on. Best of the Best: Tuna Crispy Rice, Lobster Bao Buns, Korean Hot Wings, Brussels Good: Burrata - maybe a little too sweet with the jam. Not our favs: bone marrow, crab fried rice Overall this experience was awesome and the entire menu sounded fire. Great date night spot!

    Wonderful experience at Jane’s Hideaway. Welcoming staff and great food. Wide range of great Tennessee bourbons to sample. The music was phenomenal with Tim Bolo on Monday nights. A local neighborhood spot that is well worth a visit when visiting Nashville. Only an Uber ride away from Broadway. Venture out to this unique spot that provides great food and high caliber performers.

    Great, except for all of the wasps. They were outside and INSIDE the restaurant which made for an uncomfortable dining situation.
