What People Are Saying About Radius 10

In Short – Renovations to the 1920s-era 1101 McGavock Building have turned this street-level space into a sleek, open dining area. A custom-made steel radial bar and floor-to-ceiling windows that take in The Gulch, Union Station and downtown surround the tables. Business professionals and local urbanites stopping off on their way home fill the 140 seats as they dine on an eclectic American menu that includes brick oven pizzas, low-country shrimp and scallops, and dry-aged strip steak.

Tasty, Attentive, Loud
by madelineburns at Citysearch
I had a great dinner here - the special was sort of a pad thai pompano - but it does add up faster than a sushi bar. I still can't figure out how we spent $160 in less than an hour. But anyway! The food was great and our waiter was attentive - we had to be out by a certain time, and he got us out in time. The room is insanely loud - we were the ONLY people in the back room and we STILL couldn't hear ourselves . Here's my thing: I'm FABULOUS and I need the people at my table to know it. Work on that. Otherwise: great.
- Pros: Cuisine, Service
- Cons: Noise level, Hilariously expensive

Best restaurant in town and amazing service!

i cant say enough about the great experiences i have had at radius10. The staff is always super friendly, but not overbearing. Some nashville restaurants have these servers that want to share their whole life story with you and I appreciate staff that is professional and allow me to enjoy the company i am with. The food however is to DYE for, i swear i have gone twice by myself to kick t he cravings i have for it! The bar is great for solo dining, bartenders always remember me. Sorry about the other review saying the portions were too small, wake up to 2008! restaurants with "enough for 4" are the reason it is hard to get good food and americans are all overwieght! I would much prefer high quality, creative food and NOT enough for 2 people in each entree.
- Pros: best food in town, great service
- Cons: i cant afford it everyday!

Perfect shrimp & scallops! Fluffy, creamy, 'cloud-like' grits! Solid filet.
by Coya at Citysearch
Had an excellent meal at Radius 10 on Saturday ~6:30p. We made reservations ~2 hours before, and were promptly seated at a quiet table in the back room. Much more romantic and quieter than the front / bar room.
We had a basic brie cheese plate to start. Best thing was the dressing on the greens, very nice and slightly sweet.
Solid wine list (if a tad pricey).
For dinner we had the Shrimp & Scallops and the Filet.
The grits with the shrimp were AMAZING! Best ever. Truly the highlight of the meal. I had to close my eyes to absorb the heavenly flavor! Like floating away on a cloud!
You will also FLIP over the shiitake mushrooms that graced both plates.
Portions were generous -- I ate my whole plate because the flavor was so incredible -- and I was too full to even glance at dessert!
Prompt, courteous service.
Bravo!! Well done!! Highly recommended.
- Pros: Grits, grits, grits! Valet parking. Prompt service.
