    Ole Red doesn’t take Opentable reservations. Don’t be fooled by booking. It’s won’t get you in any faster. They don’t open till 11am but the Opentable reservations are from 10-1045 and it auto checks you in. Something isn’t set up correctly with the software. Food just ok, entertainment and ambiance great. Bloody Mary same you get on an airplane they can do better and they know it. It’s a cool spot but you don’t come here for the food. Band was incredible the day we were there.

    Never happened. Prior to coming to Nashville, we made our Open Table reservation at Ole Red and even received a confirmation number for 10:45 AM on Friday, June 9. We were denied service due to a group booking because of CMA Fest and were told to get in the long line if we wanted to enter the building. If we had known this, we would have planned accordingly. Instead, the person I spoke with, asked me to prove and show her my Open Table reservation on my phone as well as my confirmation number for the Ole Red 300 Broadway location. The person I talked with, working at the back entry on 3rd Ave entry, said Ole Red isn’t even listed on the Open Table app, but I showed her differently. Yes, we had 2 tables for 4 people each (9 total) Open Table reservations for 10:45 AM. I had one and my sister-in-law did too for our family reunion. We never stepped inside Ole Red. We arrived at 10:15 and there was no way we would have gotten inside had we waited in line; in fact, a man staff member walking the line even told us we wouldn’t make it inside due to where we were at in line. No apology nor were we able to get inside for a brief moment ahead of the people already waiting in line and who never even made a reservation. It was very disappointing and an inconvenience for all 8 of us. I thought we should have been treated differently! In the past, Ole Red has been a favorite and go to restaurant for us when we vacation in Nashville.

    Everything was delicious but especially the cornbread! Yummy! The hot ham and cheese could easily be split between two people!

    Great service! Nachos were enough to feed 4plus people. Our waiter was so nice he told us that it would be too much to get meals and the nachos (he was right). He saved us a lot of money! Great live band too!

    This was our first time actually eating at Ole Red. We have visited many times for drinks both on the first floor and the fifth floor. The food was very good, portions good, priced good for the area. Our service was awesome, servers name was Molly and she was cute, super friendly, knew the menu. It was a great experience and look forward to going back.
