Best American Restaurants in Goodlettsville

Outstanding display of holiday decor accompanied by 3 world class dishes or duck, beef tenderloin and Risotto. The duck was tops and one of the best duck dishes I’ve eaten in quite some time. Well done, Geist!

The Henry is truly a hidden gem in Nashville’s laid-back 12th South district. From the moment you step inside, you feel as if you’ve been transported to an upscale East Coast brownstone neighborhood restaurant. The design is absolutely stunning—elegant and timeless with dark woods, leather wallpaper, and a classy, old-world charm. It’s the perfect blend of high-end sophistication and relaxed Southern hospitality. We were seated in the covered patio, which felt like a lush garden oasis. The bright, airy space, complete with high ceilings, abundant greenery, and stylish furniture, created a wonderful contrast to the cozy elegance of the interior. Walter, the maître d’, greeted us warmly and gave us a great introduction to the restaurant. He even offered to personally assist with reservations if availability ever seems limited on OpenTable—a thoughtful touch that reflects the restaurant’s commitment to exceptional service. Armand, who took care of our table, was equally outstanding. His professionalism, warm personality, and genuine smile made us feel right at home. He was attentive without being intrusive and kept us engaged with friendly conversation throughout the evening. The food was just as impressive as the atmosphere and service. I had the burger, and it was absolutely delicious—the meat was incredibly fresh and flavorful. We also enjoyed the brie and cranberry on sourdough toast appetizer, which was the perfect start to the meal. My husband had the chopped tuna salad, lightly seared and beautifully prepared. Every bite was fantastic. Overall, it was a wonderful dining experience, and we can’t wait to return. As Nashville locals, we’re thrilled to have found such an elegant yet approachable spot that we’ll definitely be frequenting from now on!

Absolutely amazing dinner at the Hampton Social!! Beautiful restaurant and also great views of the city and the bridge. Service was fast and friendly. They even bought us champagne for our anniversary. As for the food - the shrimp and crab bruschetta is a must have. Oysters were delicious and the burger is one of the best we’ve ever had. For dessert, the banana foster on a chocolate chip waffle is worth every calorie. Just get it! We cannot wait to come back and try the brunch!

My friend and I didn’t celebrate new years, so we decided to have a night out at House of Cards. It was my second time visiting the place, 10/10 experience both times. The magic show was incredible! If you don’t believe in magic, you will after the show! 🪄 we sat at the bar and our bartender was very attentive. Drinks were great, service was amazing. If you’re thinking about going, do iiittt.

Overall this Red lobster was very good! I think for the most part people have forgotten about it! It need some minor updates but for the most part it was great and the food was phenomenal! Thank you!
