Best Restaurants with a Happy Hour in East Nashville

Just a grand evening celebrating our son’s birthday. Started with a Music City roll. Excellent. Then salads and steaks. Piano music was a great background. A bit pricey, but I’m sure that is standard for downtown Nashville.

Review for Harpers in Nashville As someone who often leaves steakhouses thinking I could have made a better meal at home, Harpers in Nashville completely exceeded my expectations. From the moment we arrived, everything about the experience was exceptional. We ordered the Australian Wagyu, and it was hands down one of the best pieces of meat I’ve ever had. Perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor, it was tender and practically melted in my mouth—setting a new standard for what steak should be. The sides and appetizers were just as impressive. The brussels sprouts were roasted to perfection, packed with flavor and just the right amount of crispiness. The brûlée corn was a delightful surprise—sweet, savory, and creamy with a beautifully caramelized topping. And the lobster ravioli? Absolutely divine. Rich, decadent, and perfectly balanced, it was a dish I’ll be dreaming about for a long time. Harpers truly delivers a dining experience that feels special in every way. If you’re in Nashville and want an unforgettable meal, this is the place to go. I can’t wait to return!

Great experience! Food and drinks were awesome. Highly recommend !

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!

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