Small place, big quality!
by LBell
We have not been out in quite some time, when my husband suggested this place, I had almost forgotten about it, its been there for years.
We walked in and it was quite crowded, we did not want to sit in the middle of the room, so we waited at the cute bar and had a drink, in about 10-15 minutes, a waitress came to take us to the table.
She was very nice, and funny, she helped us pick out a bottle of wine, she said it was her favorite and it was absolutely wonderful.
Shrimp appetizer was spicy, but very tasty. My husband had the steak special and we were both amazed at the quality and size of the steak dinner for 20 bucks! I had scallops with lobster macaroni and they were fantastic. We had home made cheesecake for dessert, peach I think, it was great.
No less than 3 staff members checked on us and refilled our water glasses while we were there. This is no chain restaurant, the wait staff there are real pros. A very enjoyable evening, we will be back soon.
- Pros: Nice atmosphere, profesional staff, great food
- Cons: very small, can be noisy when crowded, but worth it.

We'll be back !
by mdtrades
The concierge at Lowe's Vanderbilt recommended Midtown Cafe. She was so right! The menu had so much great stuff I can't wait to get back to Nashville to try something else. After trying to decide between Duck or Lamb I went with the servers suggestion of Scallops with Lobster Macaroni and Cheese. Awesome! (and more than I could eat!) My wife went with Trout with fried green tomatoes (new to us.) Great service too.
- Pros: great menu
- Cons: great menu...too many great choices

Returning to an old friend
by George62
After spending 6 months overseas, my wife and I decided to go to Midtown last Saturday night. It was like returning to an old friend. We were seated at our favorite table. Our waiter took really good care of us. We had a great bottle of wine. My wife ordered the Black and Blue Tuna and I had the filet. But first we had the famous Midtown Cafe crabcakes as a starter. It is so nice to come back to someplace that still has the same quality. We can't wait to go back!
- Pros: Great food Great Service
