    A Spectacular Culinary Experience at Joe Muer Seafood – Thanks to Sid From the moment we stepped into Joe Muer Seafood, we knew we were in for something extraordinary. The atmosphere exuded classic elegance, with an ambiance that blended warmth, sophistication, and a touch of old-school charm. But what truly elevated our experience was the impeccable service delivered by Sid, our waiter, who turned an already exceptional meal into an unforgettable dining event. Sid wasn’t just a server—he was a master of hospitality. His deep knowledge of the menu, his ability to anticipate our needs before we even voiced them, and his genuine passion for delivering a world-class experience made all the difference. He guided us through the menu with expert recommendations, balancing personal preferences with the restaurant’s signature dishes, ensuring that every bite was a revelation. We started with the Seafood Tower, a stunning display of the ocean’s finest offerings—succulent lobster, plump shrimp, briny oysters, and perfectly chilled crab legs. Each bite was impeccably fresh, as if it had been pulled from the sea moments before it reached our table. Paired with a crisp, chilled white wine selected under Sid’s guidance, it was the perfect opening act. Then came the signature Dover Sole, a dish that can only be described as perfection. Filleted tableside with effortless precision, it was delicate, buttery, and melt-in-your-mouth tender. The richness of the brown butter sauce complemented the subtle sweetness of the fish, making every bite a moment to savor. Through it all, Sid orchestrated the evening with flawless timing and unwavering attention to detail. He didn’t just serve us; he curated an experience—one that lingered well beyond the final sip of our espresso. His professionalism, charm, and ability to make us feel like the most important guests in the restaurant made this dinner truly unforgettable. Joe Muer Seafood is, without a doubt, a pinnacle of fine dining!

    I can't say enough good things about the service. Our waiter was exceptional! Very friendly but professional. Knowledgeable about the food and preparation. Regarding the meals....one person had the fish stew and most of the fish was overcooked. Also the calamari appetizer was tough and overcooked. The garlic bread with the fish stew was salty but exceptional! Everyone thought that the desserts were just ok. It was an enjoyable evening but probably won't go back.

    The ambient lighting and furniture set the scene. The Service and Food go hand and hand…both amazing. Lobster PotPie is top tier and the 12oz Lobster is cooked to perfection every time they offer it. Piano music is the perfect backdrop. We miss chef Clarence. The new chef is just as awesome nonetheless. We’ll be back.

    We highly recommend Joe Muers Nashville! The Halibut was amazing! We started with the Raw Bar Plateau Platter. All the seafood was fresh and my husband loved the oysters. The restaurant is beautiful and the atmosphere was lively. The piano music elevates the entire experience! Our evening was perfect!

    Went for anniversary dinner. Wife’s food was good “ stuffed fish” while my stuffed bacon wrapped shrimp was over cooked.,the bacon was burnt which gave them a bad taste. The waitress was very friendly and for the most part attentive. When she came to see about desserts I told her about my meal and she had it removed from our bill which was much appreciated. The dinning room is very nice and there was someone playing the piano. Was really hoping for better food for the price.

    Excellent food and service. Entrees are all ala carte and the selection of sides is somewhat limited and highly priced, but otherwise dinner was excellent.
