I loved this restaurant. The food is always exceptional and I appreciate the variety. Service wasn’t as polished as usual, but we weren’t in a hurry. Looked like a short staff do our server was all over the place.

Another great evening at Evelyns. Each visit has been good- and they always get us up to the concerts on time. I appreciate the menu items they pledge to support our Nashville Symphony too- they are part of the community.

    It was very chill on the rooftop on a Monday morning but so pretty! Our waitress was very nice and friendly! She cared about my friends allergies and was very helpful. The Rose Sangria was a perfect brunch drink! Our food was so delicious! The avocado toast was amazing. So was the tuna appetizer and our salad. The roasted carrots was amazing. The salmon was ok; nothing special. The banana cream pie was insane!! Never in my life did I enjoy a dessert so much!
