    2 of our table of 4 had very different allergies. The staff was so attentive, making sure to understand and communicate all dietary issues with the kitchen. And the food was excellent!

    Cute restaurant with a lively atmosphere. Food and service were good, though a somewhat limited menu. Table favorites were cauliflower and fish and chicken.

    What a lovely evening at LYRA. From the warm greeting at the door, servers who were friendly yet still professional, beautiful and delicious food journey and a special touch to help us celebrate a birthday. We will absolutely return to LYRA on the regular. Thank you to this team for a great experience.

    Sadly, the decline in food quality has transpired. Never again. The hummus looked dried out around the edges, the chicken and escarole were decent but that's as good as it got, the lamb was like a salisbury steak with a slightly bitter sauce. They had the nerve to sell/serve an ice cream dessert that looked as if it had been lost in the back of the freezer for a year and tasted like sh it. Also ordered a dried up apple something? cake, it was awful as well. That is the last visit there.

    On of our favorite spots in Nashville. The food is delicious, drinks are fun and tasty. The hummus and fresh pita are a MUST have.
