   This place is special. We've eaten in renowned restaurants all over the world, but I can't think of a better meal I've ever had. We literally ordered one of everything. The creativity, presentation, and flavors are superb—all in an unfussy, super warm, comfortable atmosphere.

   My partner and I have been wanting to go to Locust for years, and finally for his birthday we made it happen. “Unreasonable Hospitality” this, The Bear that…this was everything and more. The experience made you truly feel like you were apart of the family, the friend group, the “in” crowd. Yes, an elevated meal, but one that was likewise comfortable, casual, and full of that warm, home cooked meal feeling. Too Much Caviar is…too much caviar. But so much fun to taste with every part of the meal. The bread just melts in your mouth, the butter is divine, and all with a Toki Highball was perfect. Razor clams on the house that were truly something I have never tasted before in my life. DIY beef tartare rolls along with amazing Tuna hand rolls, followed by abalone risotto and some shaved iced for a last hurrah. Just spectacular. And all the while, the staff is so attentive and helpful, while also being equal to one another; waitstaff, chefs, maître d, all visited to chat and mingle interchangeably. This restaurant is such a well-oiled machine that the guests truly are swept into another world— not one of four different spoons and white tablecloths, but one where a staff member stops by to talk about the Bad Nerves song he queued, a small dish on the house after making a connection in the Nashville food world, and where the team all shouts “Happy Birthday!” as you leave. Perfect strangers made family for an hour or two. Not feigned, pretend: made.

   Hands down best meal we have ever had. The food was unbelievable. The presentation and service was outstanding. Can’t say enough about this dining experience.

   Eleven out of ten, if you don’t live nearby order the whole menu since there’s not an item to miss. Everything is delicious and the team is a pleasure to be around!

   Always an absolute knockout experience. The food, service, drinks, and ambience are perfect. I would disown my familiar sooner than I’d skip a meal at Locust.

    It took a good while to get a reservation but we did and the experience was fantastic. simple, elegant and extremely well-crafted in every aspect. All the dishes were delicious and accented with amazing flavors. The horseradish infused vodka was a great touch. Locust will be one of our favorites for a long time. We are excited to experience the lunch menu very soon.
