I can not begin to explain how amazing our dinning experience was last night. It started with the smiling incredibly gracious hostess who told us about her favorites on the special sheet that evening. From there we were greeted by the most astonishing waitress I have ever seen. See walked us through the menu giving the history of the sauces and exotic spices. With every dish she had a spot on wine and beer recommendation. She was entertaining and ninja like when see needed to be. Just when you thought you need to order a cocktail you would look down and out of no where there it was waiting for you. If you are a cork dork or a beer nerd you will love this place. The Palm and Mortons would be envious of the steaks on our table. Every appetiser, salad, entree, and dressert was fabulous. The attention to detail was phenomenal.

The coffee which the waitress tells us is from a local roaster was the best coffe any of us had ever tasted. I could go on and on but someone would accuse me of being on the payroll. IF you have not been you must go.

I recently attended bound'ry for a private event. The set up was great and we thought we were really in for a great time. It started going downhill almost immediately, however. The servers repeatedly ignored us, denying us the most simple requests like water, a black napkin, or steak knives for our fillets! It got to be so bad that I felt the need to say something to the manager, who was unapologetic and rude. We were astonished that a supposedly nice restaurant could provide such disrespectful and inattentive service. Furthermore, the creme brulee that I ordered for dessert was not even "brullee" and was more of a fruit custard and not good. I, needless to say, will not go back to Bound'ry and wish we had picked somewhere else to have our annual holiday dinner party.

  • Pros: Leaving
  • Cons: Price for quality, service, management, bar service

The boundry is one of those places that you recommend to your friends that come to visit from cities like NYC or LA, it is just that good. The food is wonderful, the phoenician is wonderful, the table bread and spreads are fabulous. The service is very good, we have never had a bad meal here and we have dined here about 15 times.

  • Pros: Very good
  • Cons: Busy on the weekends

New to Nashville, and everyone told me to check out the Bound'ry. Finally got to check it out two weeks ago. Made a reservation, but when we got there, had to wait. Ok with that. Had to sit at the crowded bar. Ok with that. Had to deal with a rude staff. Not ok with that.When we finaly got to sit down, we walked through an empty restaurant. Why did we have to wait for almost an hour when there were at least a handful of open tables? Girls at the front door were very rude. We tried to get our tab from the bar transferred, and the bartender was very reluctant, but finally did it. Food was good. Duck entree was almost worth the hassle. Salads were small and unimpressive. Dessert was weird and also unimpressive. Server seemed absent minded and not familiar with the wine list. Could have been a good experience if staff was better. Food covered menu was a huge turn off. Bad first impression.

  • Pros: Good Wine and Beer List, Decent Entree Selection
  • Cons: Hostess (doesn't seat you for long time), bartender(won't transfer tab), server(unattentive)=BAD STAFF

We have been going to Bound'ry for many years, and have been loyal patrons, however, this steady decline in service is absolutely unforgivable. I used to love coming here with my wife and daughter, but now I do not think that I will ever return. We ALWAYS call and make reservations....ALWAYS. We do this because we request a particular table, and in the past, the Bound'ry staff has always accomodated us. However, we were treated VERY rudely by the hostess, who said that there was absolutely no way that she could give us the table that we requested (which was empty when we got there). Don't you think that if someone requests a table BY NUMBER they may have been to your establishment once or twice and you should try to abide their wishes? We were seated and ordered our usual. Our server completely ignored us after we placed our order. When the food arrived at the table, everything was wrong. After grabbing another server to get our server to correct the error, it took forever to get the food that we had initially ordered, and it was not up to par. Our server was unapologetic and condescending. What happened to this place? It used to be so wonderful for any occasion, but now you can't even go have a decent meal there without there being some sort of mishap.

  • Pros: Some people remember the way it used to be.
  • Cons: The staff

I've never complained about a restaurant on here, but I felt I needed to this time. We went there on a Friday afternoon/evening for drinks and sat at the upstairs bar area. The waitress was terrible and she did not know the menu. We had to go to the bar to order because we rarely saw her. The drinks were overpriced and blah. We were to afraid to sit and wait for food that might resemble the drink and service. Very dissapointing.

  • Pros: location
  • Cons: service

My husband and I have fallen in love with Bound'ry. Last weekend, we had a seafood theme. We had various tapas - tuna nori roll which was delicious; the Crabcake was perfectly done; calamari was wonderful and different; the shrimp and grits here are outstanding. They make excellent mojitos, and the beer selection is also great. If want an awesome night out, go to the Bound'ry. The owner came to our table and was very gracious. The service is always superior here. Don't waste your time going anywhere else!

We were excited to eat here, BUT...

Everything was over-smoked, dry and/or greasy.

- Bread was DRY and stale

- Tuna sashimi appetizer - bland and salad smelled bad.

- Crab cake was ok except for the MOUND of caviar and chunky random pieces of onion...that's how you know its cheap caviar.

- Calamari was average.

- Goat cheese pizza was good

- Pork Chop was over-smoked, under-seasoned. Tasted like a Cedar chip...however was perfectly cooked for a thick chop. The mac and cheese was overdone and dry yet greasy at the same time. The chop made me feel nauseous.

Don't worry Bound'ry, we're not mad at you, those are just the facts. We just want you to improve.

I have been to Bound'ry many times in the past few years, and everyone I bring loves this trendy hidden gem off of 20th & Grand. From the flickering lanterns outside to the warm, eclectic, multi-level interior, the attention to detail in the decor and the food is not to be missed. Both their tapas and entrees are great, and it has a fun, hip atmosphere that doesn't overwhelm with booming music or incredibly dim lighting. I'm in my twenties, but everyone I bring here, from my parents to my friends, love it. The food is great, and the waiters are fun and accomodating. I couldn't reccomend Bound'ry more for an enjoyable, fun meal to have on any night of the week in beautiful surroundings.

  • Pros: Fun atmosphere, eclectic food
  • Cons: Can be difficult to get a reservation, as it's so popular

I first visited Boundr'y's bar and loved the bartenders, atmosphere, and variety of beer and exotic drinks. I went back for dinner last night. There menu is extensive and we all loved that you get the choice of tapas or tasting portions with appetizers and tasting or entrees portions with dinner options. You can mix and match sides with all entree options, which restaurants sometimes frown upon. It was a little bit chilly so we didn't eat out, but the outdoors dining looks like a lot of fun! I went with someone who is hard of hearing and it was impossible to have a conversation because of the noise volume in the restaurant (but it was a saturday night). I highly highly recommend Boundr'y and I cannot wait to go back!!

  • Pros: Great variety and cool ambience
  • Cons: accoustics
