Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Green Hills

Wow! We went to the Mockingbird for Thanksgiving! This gave us many more things to be thankful for. Our server was a joy. He was friendly, engaging and attentive. The food was de-liscious! Pumpkin soup, kale salad with butternut squash and candied pecans to start. The turkey dinner was huge! With traditional sides of mashed potatoes, stuffing and green beans. We took a lot home. Of course. We left a little room for cake. The dining area reminded us of a 1940s style with music to match that vibe. We look forward to going back to try their regular menu. Ideally, summertime on the deck!

We had the most wonderful time. Our server was very attentive and thoughtful. It was later in the evening with no new reservations coming in. We were super cold and she moved us near the fire place. Made the experience much better. Our meals were wonderful. I had the beef tenderloin and they did allow me to leave off the pepper sauce. My husband had the salmon and daughter had the lamb. Every dish we would get again. The ambiance were so nice. Every decoration placed perfectly. Loved it so much!

From the time we entered, we felt relaxed and taken care of. The dining room was intimate and the tables were spread apart nicely. Everything we ate was delicious-bruschetta, Etch salad, filet, and venison (my husband). The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. They knew we weee attending a show at Bridgestone, so they paced appropriately. The price is a little higher ($50 for a filet), but we never felt anyone was trying to upscale us. I highly recommend for a date night or special occasion.

I made reservations a month out for my wedding anniversary surprise dinner. Reservation making was easy and smooth, the deposit and price were all extremely worth it, the food was by far the star of the show, the wine pairings elevated the experience and complimented the courses beautifully. The ability to interact with the chefs while sitting at the bar highlighted their passion of the dishes they created. The exclusivity of dining in an intimate setting was perfect for conversation with my wife and guests around us.

Extraordinary in the very best way. Each course a single (or maybe two) bite of wonder. The only bobble we had was a misstep re a dairy request which was quickly offered a redo. Perfect service, nice wine list, intimate setting where conversation is possible. A unique experience that we can’t wait to try again.
