Re: “Sambuca”
I have been at Sambuca numerous times for dinner and we love the food. Actually have reservations for 6 this Thursday night. It can be a little loud at times with the music however the quality of the food makes up for that. Love what you do keep doing it!!
Re: “Norm's River Road House”
Victim of the flood, the place is currently closed.
Re: “Rumba Rum Bar and Satay Grill [Closed]”
This place is great. I could never get tired of their Shrimp Masala. The variety of the menu + atmosphere + service make it a unique restaurant for Nashville. I've been eating here for 6 years and have never been unsatisfied. In my opinion, wonderful.
Re: “Muse”
shitty shitty shitty. If you have to go to the bathroom, go to the porn store behind the muse, for it has a cleaner bathroom. Good shows but just a bad environment. Someone should clean every once in a while . . .

Re: “Ri'Chard's Louisiana Cafe”
Has to be one of the best kept secrets around. Great food at a fair price. Fun atmosphere with various singers on hand. And the owner is right there in the mix. Daughters took me for Father's Day and went back five days later. Loved it!

Re: “Factory at Franklin”
Art Fusion 2010 on June 4 & 5 had to be the best art and music festival that Williamson County has ever had to offer. The Arts Council of Williamson County did a fantastic job. Can't wait for the 5th Annual Art Fusion in 2011. I couldn't believe everything was free. No charge to get in and it was all indoors. The Friday evening reception was phenomenal. I highly recommend this show to all artists and art lovers. It wasn't your ordinary show by any means. There was something for everyone.
Re: “Municipal Auditorium”
Well, went to see Church Mess is one of if not the best play I'be ever seen! I also saw after the Love is Gone and it was ok. Something similiar to others he cheated. Plays. I think Kelly Price is good singer, but not a good actress and don't think Montel Jordan is good at singing or acting. The content was alright. Church Mess was very funny with a great message...great talented cast that's been around the country as well.
Re: “Greenhouse Bar”
I feel that by being the first to officially review this bar on the Scene I may be breaking some unspoken taboo by letting the unacquainted in on this place. I pray my naivete will not be met with any vindictive reprisals.
The Greenhouse Bar is exactly as its name indicates. It's a bar, planted within a greenhouse setting. Pretty weird, I know. Why exactly would you want to go to a greenhouse to get your drinks, you might be asking at this point? Thankfully, my curiosity led me there to find out why this place even existed.
The very presence of the Greenhouse bar is rather unassuming. It's recessed slightly from the road, with a tiny parking lot in front (though more in back and across the street), as well as a small pea gravel patio area (not exactly a high heel friendly environment) with some outdoor furniture and a little fire pit which is most excellent to sit next to and sip your perfect martini and make new friends on a comfy, clear night.
Inside, there are plants of all sizes, ranging from flowers to small trees, which have been intelligently arranged to give the space dimension in what is otherwise a long and somewhat narrow structure. There are a number of areas away from the bar that still maintain a semblance of privacy, allowing you to have relaxed conversations with good friends, without straining either to speak or to hear others in your company. The bar itself is an island located directly in the center of the bar, providing plenty of space to elbow up to order a drink or to set up camp and enjoy it right there. The selection of beer, wine and liquor is sufficient, though not extensive. That doesn't matter anyway as all you need to order are their French martinis, which are shaken until frothy and taste more appropriately like a pineapple upside-down cake, as well as their mojitos, which are served in small mason jars complete with the freshest of mint, picked from the plants growing there (virtually) as you order them. This is coming from someone who typically prefers straight bourbon whiskey. I unapologetically order them right in from of my male friends. They are that good and the ridicule only lasts until they have their first sip. Also, (I feel awful because I am terrible with names, but) make sure you get them from the guy with the beard and long red hair behind the bar. I swear, the guy never misses.
If my girlfriend and I are ever looking to have a great relaxed night to unwind, weeknight or weekend, either with friends or just the two of us, The Greenhouse Bar is our go-to spot. We love introducing people to it, as they always enjoy it and the unique impression it imparts. If I just blew it for the regulars, I'm deeply sorry. Next round is on me.

Re: “Ellendale's”
I've only been here for the Sunday brunch, but I've been several times and it's always good. It's a nice blend of breakfast (eggs, bacon, pancakes, gravy and biscuits, sausage) and lunch (usually some kind of baked chicken with several vegetables) with a fantastic selection of fresh salads. Plus there is an omelet station, where you can get a fresh, to-order prepared omelet made by a nice and entertaining man. Some of the food is a little upscale, and the flavors are really interesting. The service is usually pretty good, but since I've been only during the buffet times, tea glasses can stay empty for a little while. The buffet is a little pricey, but I think the food is definitely worth it. If you go early (around 11), you usually have the place pretty much to yourself, which is nice. Oh, there is also a dessert bar with brie, chocolate fondue, various cakes and pastries that's good, but I usually fill up too much on the salads and breakfast items to get much there.
Re: “Cafe Coco”
I've had the pasta and burgers here, and they're both really good. The atmosphere is pretty nice and laid back - definitely more towards a younger college-aged crowd. You can sometimes feel a little unwelcome from some of the patrons if you don't fit into the normal customer group, but I've never felt that from the service. It's a good place if you're really hungry at night because it is open 24 hours, but the area is a little scary if you have to park too far from the restaurant.
Re: “Vanderbilt Dyer Observatory”
What a perfect evening. Beautiful music, such fantastic voices, all three. Weather cooperated completely, even got to see Saturn with the rings. Sign us up for next year.

Re: “Starlite Club”
For nearly sixty years, this club is a true born tradition in Nashville. Ever since Mary 'Sis' King first open this club on Christmas Eve in 1952, up to four generations Nashvillians and tourist have made The Starlite their home. This club has stood up to the test of time with live bands and DJ's playing all the hits for all music genres for all types of crowds, young and old. The lovely ladies that serve you at your table show a lot of TLC to make your stay wonderful. And don't forget to take care of your bartenders during your stay. You never forget a better time at the Starlite.
Re: “Mafiaoza's”
I love good pizza and Mafiazo's definitely delivers.. Great tasting pies for sure. BUT - Its very expensive for pizza.. I like going here. Would go here more often but once you get a couple of drinks, a salad to share, and a pizza, you have already dropped at least $60.00. There are a lot more restaurants I would go to before Mafiazo's if I am planning on dropping that kind of coin... Its in a great neighborhood, great atmosphere at the restaurant, very nice patio, but in the end its just pizza. Delicious pizza. :)
Re: “Municipal Auditorium”
I WOULD HAVE TO SAY THAT A PLAY YOU WOULD WANT TO SEE IS WOMAN TO WOMAN. LOCAL LADY FROM CLARKSVILLE, TN AND HER CAST PERFORMED THIS PLAY AT AUSTIN PEAY UNIVERSITY AND IT WAS OFF THE CHAIN. ALL THE CAST COULD SING AND DID A GREAT JOB PERFORMING AND MINISTERING. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY WILL DO THE PLAY OVER IN SEPTEMBER AT AUSTIN PEAY AND THEN BRING IT TO NASHVILLE IN NOVEMBER. YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS PLAY. SO LOOK OUT FOR IT
