   This gem tucked away from downtown Nashville was SO GOOD. Our waitress was fantastic and had such a good sense of humor. The Christmas decorations were so cute. My husband and I are were visiting from Illinois and we can’t wait to come back and do a little bowling!

   We hosted a private breakfast at Pinewood Social. The service and food was excellent. I would absolutely recommend this venue.

   We really enjoyed our time there. The food was delicious and our servers were friendly. My biggest concern is when I asked for the gluten free menu or options she suggested fried chicken and a couple other options that were most likely not gluten free. She was kind enough to double check my order with the kitchen and I appreciated that. We enjoyed the fried chicken (not me), Mac and cheese and salad.

   Thanksgiving at Pinewood was a hospitality disaster. Despite having a reservation, the host informed us upon arrival that we would likely wait at least 30 minutes for a table and encouraged us to look for seats at the bar. She also informed us that the restaurant was out of turkey; the whole reason we came was to have a traditional Thanksgiving dinner. We did indeed wait 30 minutes past our reservation time to be seated despite approximately 30 people leaving- most having vacated tables- within about 15 minutes of our arrival. There were children running all over the restaurant, many in pajamas, oddly enough. After being seated, we waited about another 20 minutes before anyone ever came to our table. I tried to order the turkey plate without the turkey (because they were out of it), but the server quickly informed me that that wouldn’t be an option because “we don’t do any type of substitutions” and that they had run out of turkey over 3 hours prior. I wasn’t asking to substitute another meat for turkey, I simply wanted the traditional Thanksgiving side dishes that came on that plate and would have still paid the full price for it even without the turkey. Instead of an entree I had pumpkin pie alone after having not eaten the entire day due to working a grueling shift as a first responder. I miss getting to enjoy the traditions of most holidays because of my job and was very excited to finally get to have a “normal” Thanksgiving dinner after years of not being able to. I passed on several invites to friends’ homes for a late dinner after my shift to go to Pinewood’s “Thanksgiving dinner” and am very sorry I did. Effectively managing and honoring actual reservations, properly planning for and stocking enough traditional Thanksgiving food, and requiring guests to parent their children could have prevented all of this. I’m still shocked at the level of unprofessionalism we encountered. I’ve patronized Pinewood since its inception, but after this I won’t be back.

   Food was ok, the bar experience was great, ambience. Then it goes downhill, they stuck us in a room by ourselves and forgot about us. The waiter seemed to be in a hurry to end his night. We ordered our food. 45 minutes later we finally got our food. EVERYTHING AT ONCE. Salad, main courses and dessert. What a mess, we will never be back unless I have 3 hours of my life I can just throw away.

   Disappointed I had a 5:30 reservation, it took an hour to get a table, then ran out of turkey. Which was the reason for having Thanksgiving dinner there!

    Reservation was for 5:15, told they were running behind, which was fine since it was Thanksgiving that was understandable and not a problem. Told we might be able to get a bowling lane and then told it was all booked when there were 4 open lanes all night, again not a big deal. The service at the bar was great however there were at least 4 or 5 empty tables the whole time and we weren’t seated until around 6/6:30 and our server didn’t come by for at least 20/25mins after we were seated, again Thanksgiving and I get it. The service at the table was not good, very inattentive, sporadically showing up and we had to flag him down every time we needed something, told the food we wanted was unavailable and there weren’t any sides available, just overall disappointing experience and I won’t be back.

It's certainly understanding to feel disappointed with the service we provided, and I'm terribly sorry we missed the mark on so many things throughout your time with us, especially on a special occasion like Thanksgiving. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed our service at the bar, but we regret that the service at the table didn't match. We take your comments seriously and will address them with our team to improve our service. We hope you'll give us another chance to make it up to you in the future. Best, Emily Quinn
