Bastion Nashville Reviews
I came here on Wednesday for their Bastion x Bastion
I came here on Wednesday for their Bastion x Bastion crossover event, where they served their restaurant food in the bar section, and I am so happy I came! I'd been wanting to come to Bastion the restaurant for a long time, but had yet to have a
Best tasting menu in Nashville.
Thoughtful and well blended flavors without being pretentious. Romantic and cozy ambiance but not so stuffy you can't laugh and chat. Excellent service and the wine pairing was very well put together. Accommodated my food allergies without a hi

incredible vibes & great lighting!! The drinks and happy hour are perfect & so much fun seating! Bartenders are super knowledgeable and make great recs. Nachos are to DIE for.

Friendly bartenders and good prices on drinks! They have street parking out front and I believe they validate in a nearby lot as well. They play vinyl records from a huge collection, displayed along side eclectic posters and doodads. Every other Sund

I didn't have a cocktail, but I tried my friends drinks and they were excellent! The drinks were strong and creative! The atmosphere is really vibey, and the service is very fast! Really recommend for fun drinks with friends or date night!
Fabulous
We had a fabulous night at Bastion. Brilliant food, great wine, and relaxed, friendly service. Really couldn’t have been any better. Well worth every penny.
Super fun spot! It's not huge, but fits more people than it
Super fun spot! It's not huge, but fits more people than it looks like. There are a few tables with chairs, and then some wooden steps on the wall that are so fun to perch on all night. There is also validated parking in a lot down the street, j

This was an amazing spot for a special occasion! The restaurant has a very cool speakeasy feel right next to the main bar. All of our courses were delicious! The server even gave us a complimentary glass of wine pairing and dessert since it was my bi

We've been to the big bar many times and the restaurant twice and always have a good time. The food is so unique and tasty and are able to provide amazing vegetarian alternatives to every plate. The wine pairing is top notch and Chris explained
Excellent food and a nice option for a splurge date night.
That being said, I've had Michelin-starred food in Paris for cheaper and this place aspires to be, but does not come close to Michelin quality. Still a great night, although bill hit close to $300 for two. Wine pairing was excellent. Service was
I come here often.
Jess and Sadie are some of the best bartenders in Nashville. Thank you for the always amazing service!!
Lovely fun, inventive meal!
Great place to go, super service that isn’t overwhelming at all. Me and my adult son got the 6 course meal and were not disappointed! My son loved the raw steak and crabmeat with a bit of sour cream, and I liked the duck breast entree. Dessert w

It is one of my favorite spots in Nashville, if I'm in the need of a night out and don't want to be in downtown. There ambiance is always the vibe!
One of the best meals of our life with family and friends.
The bar vibe is completely different than the restaurant vibe. Every member of the staff here from the guy checking IDs at the door, the chefs, and servers have found their calling. My dad was the least experienced of our group with this type of meal

Have to say this is the best restaurant I've eaten at in the last 5 years. Every dish was impeccable and full of flavor, the wine pairing was superb and magnificently complimented each dish, and the seating at the kitchen like a Japanese omakase is b
There is no bar in the United States that rivals Bastion.
It is the essence of modern American cocktail bar, despite what New Yorkers may tell you.
What a wonderful, delicious evening! We loved every minute
What a wonderful, delicious evening! We loved every minute and cannot wait to come back. If you are a lover of inventive, carefully crafted dishes, paired with delicious wines, Bastion is a must-go! It's a small space and that makes it feel all the
Okay so I'm a foodie and the food was GREAT.
Service was also great. There was something off about the ambience. It could be because I'm 23 and everyone there was at least 35. I was expecting it to be a darker and more vibey but it was definitely more on the casual side. The music was also very
A special birthday that needed a special experience lead us
A special birthday that needed a special experience lead us to Bastion, and my husband and I are both so happy it did. The pleasant hostess Sierra led us through large, sliding wall,, which felt like entering a swanky speakeasy. we waited a small bar
Literally my most talked about bar.
This is where I tell everyone to come. The drinks are amazing and if you don't know what you want, don't worry they will make something tasty! The ambiance is great when the music is bumping. Great place to go with a group of friends and hang and in
What a meal! I went for a tasting with two food companions.
We made a reservation about a month in advance. We showed up early for our reservation so we could have a drink from the little bar before our meal. The little bar is a small bar on the restaurant side of bastion. It's quiet, it has date night ambian
I love bastion
Bastion is the greatest. The little bar? Such cool speakeasy vibes. Sitting at the counter? Those chefs are so innovative. The overall vibes of the place? Unmatched.
Utter disappointment
Food was mediocre at best. Service was horrible. Definitely wouldn’t go back, so many other great places to eat in Nashville.
Delicious tasting menu and such an enjoyable experience for
Delicious tasting menu and such an enjoyable experience for our anniversary dinner. We sat at the bar and watched food preparations. Each food item was explained in detail...interesting and creative menu, ingredients and presentation!
Best meal ever, loved it.
Have to be open minded and trust in the chef. But well worth it. The flavors and attention to detail are spectacular. Very intimate and you must book a month in advance, but I will return frequently. Thank you for such a good experience.
Drinks and place is great.
.. just really loud so if you're trying to have a date or talk to a friend I recommend going there after you have gotten to know them
Everything about Bastion exceeded our expectations.
I highly recommend this place to any foodie.
Overall, overwhelming and disappointing.
Bastion tries to bring eclectic flavors together, which I'm all for, but when this is done well those flavors blend together and melt in your mouth.. which was lacking at bastion. Instead, the dishes were too polarizing and ultimately missed the mark
Perfect Night
This is one of my husband’s and my favorite meals ever. Every course of the six courses was amazing. The bartenders were so nice and so was so was the hostess. The chefs were so friendly and perfectly explained their dishes. Andrew’s wine pai
The Fortress at 4.8
They wouldn’t take a reservation for 1 online. And, when I mentioned that to the Greek Chef at the very excellent Cat Bird’s Seat he suggested that I call them. So, I did, and they did. I am glad I did not try my alternative plan which was to gra

Parking can be an issue if the lot across the street is full...just keep trying because it's worth it. Service was great, the location is cool, the atmosphere is grown and chill, and the drinks are perfectly crafted. It can get quite packed and seati
Make a reservation for the dinner here.
It's a creative, intimate dining experience that's one of the best things you can do in Nashville.
Fabulous dinner.
Really great space. Creative food without going over the top. Great service. Much better than June or Audrey.
It's a great experience.
The ambiance is very welcoming and charming. Amazing wine pairings to accompany the food. The service was great, all chefs came by and explained every plate that was put in front of us. Staff was extremely knowledgeable when asked different questions
I met my wife here 4 years ago.
We come back EVERY year for the incredible nachos, wonderfully crafted cocktails, and extensive vinyl record collection! We dream about the nachos all year long!!!
One of my favorite bars in Nashville
As a local, it's hard to find a Nashville bar that isn't overrun by tourists and bachelorette parties. Despite this bar being located next to the SoHo House (which has a hotel), it has such an amazing local vibe. Fantastic Old Fashion and other drin
My boyfriend and I enjoyed the multi-course dinner.
We opted out of the wine pairing and just had a couple glasses each instead, but they still helped pick the right choices to get us through a couple courses at a time. The food was artwork and still somehow tasted better than it looked!

[Review of restaurant upstairs]I've been wanting to go to Bastion for a while - the restaurant upstairs is small so reservations are a must and definitely something you need to plan ahead for! (Though I hear the bar on the lower floor has great pulle
Took my twins there for their first tasting menu experience.
I love the vibe in the bar - But the real experience started when we were let behind the wall to the back bar. The cocktail specialist was genius - such a great wealth of knowledge about flavors and mixing them together. I love the staggered seatin

Came early evening on a Saturday and that was perfect for beating a night crowd and having space to sit. I liked the bar games - kept it light and friendly feeling. The holiday vibe with the projector fireplace and free is really nice. Drinks are pri

My husband and I spent 3 nights in Nashville and Bastion was the best restaurant we tried there. We enjoy the chef’s bar concept and often try tasting menus, and we were highly pleased with the food, wine and overall experience. The atmosphere is
Connect with users posting reservations for Bastion Nashville
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Bastion Nashville. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Bastion Nashville at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Bastion Nashville page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ElaborateHouse74, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* ElaborateHouse74 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ElaborateHouse74 for any questions Peter may have as ElaborateHouse74 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ElaborateHouse74 now uses their connections at Bastion Nashville to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ElaborateHouse74 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ElaborateHouse74 receives the $200 reward which is credited to ElaborateHouse74's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Bastion Nashville!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
