Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
JBJ's Nashville offers a "super fun venue" with "excellent bands" and a "great atmosphere." Guests enjoyed "amazing food" and "great service," particularly on the quieter 4th floor with views of Broadway. While some found service slow and inconsistent, the unique Bon Jovi memorabilia and vibrant music scene make it "a must" for Nashville visitors.

    I made reservations thru OpenTable and chose "front row" seating. There was also "back stage" seating. Which put you in the seating you wanted near the band. I was pretty upset when we were sent to the top floor and sat in the darkest bar with no band. Light music was playing. We requested seating near the band. There was plenty of seating on every level. We were stuck in nowhere land. But the food was fantastic. I had the filet mignon.

    Ordered 1/2 rack of ribs and a few cocktails. Drinks tasted a bit weak and ribs were charred burnt on the surface. Service was intermittent at best.

    Poor service. Don’t take reservations if you don’t want to serve dinner.

    Two thumbs down. In three hours of being there three of us never even got our dinner. It was ten degrees outside yet we were seated under a fan on full blast and they couldn’t figure out how to turn it off. Got food but got no silverware despite asking four different people. I eventually had to go downstairs and get our silverware from a private party being hosted. But by the time I got it everyone’s food is cold. Got our bills wrong too. We left hungry and upset, wasting three hours in a place that was disorganized and not being able to leave as they had our credit cards while trying to figure out how to charge for this mess of a dinner.

    Sorry to hear this was your experience. This isn’t the standard we aim for, and it’s not reflective of what most of our guests experience. We appreciate your feedback and have shared it with our team. Hope you’ll consider giving us another shot in the future.
