   A very welcoming atmosphere from the moment you pull in the parking lot, this was our first time, and we thoroughly enjoyed the warmth, knowledge and the timing (knowing when and when not to check on our table). We look forward to our next visit in the future.

   Flawless service. Incredible food. A must-visit. Oaklawn Southern Dining sets the standard for fine dining in Tennessee. The steaks? Perfectly cooked. The presentation? Impeccable. The bourbon and wine selection? World-class. Want to impress your significant other? Make a reservation. Ask for a table by the bar, and if you want to go the extra mile, request rose petals—they’ll make it happen. And whatever you do, order “The King.” It’s an Old Fashioned inspired by Elvis—peanut butter, banana, and bacon whiskey. Sounds unusual, but trust me, it’s next-level good. Oaklawn is a place you don’t just visit—you experience it.

   Great atmosphere and service perfect for any date night! My wife and I had some minor issues during our recent visit; however, those have been more than rectified and we will be frequent visitors to Oaklawn. This place is a gem in Paris. It is truly a breath of fresh air to have a place like this where you don't have to drive to Memphis or Nashville. Do yourself a favor and let Mr. Joe and his excellent staff create the perfect date night for you and your significant other. Mr. Joe goes above and beyond to make sure you have the perfect dining experience. It is obvious that he takes great pride in the taste and quality of the food he serves.

   My husband and I went to Oaklawn for our anniversary, and even though we live 2 hours away, we will definitely be coming back. I can't say enough great things about this place. The food was delicious, the ambiance was perfect, and the best part of all was the kind, courteous, and very knowledgeable staff. They went above and beyond to make our anniversary super special. I can't remember when I have had customer service like that. So refreshing. If you've never been to this restaurant, then you are missing out on a real treat. Thanks again, Oaklawn Southern Dining. Blessings, Tonya and John Mohn

   This restaurant is outstanding and worth every penny. A little noisy at first (our reservation was at 7:30pm), but still a great experience. Our server was wonderful!

   Great food and staff, complimentary valet parking was a plus. Recommend the sea bass and creme brulee.

   This place is always impressive. As good as anywhere in nashville. The food, service, atmosphere, cocktails, everything is top notch. We have eaten here many times and have tried almost every dish they offer and have never had a single bad thing. Highly recommend the ribeye, the chicken and waffles, Brussel sprouts, key lime pie

    I have told multiple people about our experience. It was the best meal I could've asked for! The service was impeccable and the atmosphere was very calming and relaxing. 10/10! And I love that it is local for where I live. It was only a 20 minute drive.
