Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
JBJ's Nashville offers an exciting atmosphere with "amazing food" and "incredible entertainers." The venue's unique Bon Jovi memorabilia adds to the charm, and the rooftop views are spectacular. While service can be inconsistent, standout items like the ribs, seafood risotto, and whiskey sours make it worth the visit. Ideal for music lovers.

    Had a reservation on OpenTable and they basically said they would not honor it due to a special event which is why we made the reservation to begin with Either don’t allow reservations or do allow but don’t simply say sorry, just kidding. The person we were talking to said nothing she could do and then walked away.

    This is a place you should experience. The memorabilia was fun to look at and the live bands were good. The food was surprisingly better than expected for a bar. A must have are the brussel sprouts and ribs. Tried Hampton Water and it is slightly sweet and refreshing. The reason I can’t give five stars is the service. When walking in there is a bouncer but no one telling us where to go for our reservation. We walked around looking for someone to ask or a sign saying where to go. When we finally found what floor we needed the server acted as though she just woke up. She got our order correct but it was disappointing to see the server and other employees chatting and socializing at the bar. I expected more out of the staff. Despite the service I would return to try other menu items and live music.

    We each started with a whiskey sour that was delicious. At the table our server highlighted the specials & we had the beef tartar to start. Did not need the cloud of cotton candy, but took nothing away from the incredible flavour. Fabulous taste & offered more “crostini” as the tartar was such a generous portion. The Australian ribeye was visually stunning as well as delicious melting like butter in your mouth with the slightest crust of spices. I had the seafood risotto with giant prawns, mussels, and scallops. Almost too much to handle but savoured every single bite. We also enjoyed the side of asparagus and lobster Mac and cheese. We decided on a rose as we had both beef and seafood. Again, completely satisfying. Our first time to Nashville and Harper’s certainly made our trip all the more special!

    We purchased the VIP packages for NYE. Great time, great music, plenty of really good "heavy" appetizers (as was stated in description) and quick bar service (open bar) with good quality (not "well" liquor) drinks!! Appetizers were restocked fresh and plentiful throughout the entire evening, right up until time to ring in the New Year. Our server for the night was excellent!!

    The food and service was good there . I loved the atmosphere , I just had an issue with a bouncer thar seemed to have a problem with me . I was just dancing, mingling and having a few drinks and asked to leave without a reason. I have read the same guy did it to another person so it wasn't just me . I love Jon Bon Jovi but I didn't deserve that treatment especially paying $250 and had to leave 30 mins before New Years that was wrong, other than that I really like the place and was having a great time up until that time .I was hoping to be able to check all the floors out but I don't want treatment like that again .
