The Green Pheasant

Great food and wine. Not sure how long they have been open. They may be understaffed as it took a long time to get drinks. New Nashville restaurants like to tell you "how slammed" they are even when half the tables are empty. They reiterated this for the second round of drinks even as the tables around us emptied. I would recommend more bartenders to keep the booze flowing!! I also think as a best practice, they should probably serve all the steaks with a steak knife as they are too difficult to eat with the chopsticks provided. I managed to flag down one of the guys to fetch is some and then it was much easier to cut into bite size pieces. I was in love with the upholstery.

Looks really upscale, really comfy seats. Bartenders super amazing at service. Not the food for me, and paying $9 for two barely flavored rice balls rubs me the wrong way, but everyone else looked happy with their entrees. Liquor selection is top notch for Japanese whiskey. Skip the onigiri and you'll probably be happy. May try that tofu ramen at some point. Cutest chopstick holders ever!

Amazing dinner at The Green Pheasant. We grabbed seats at the bar which had a perfect view of the dining room as well as the open kitchen. Started off with the house hot sake which was great! We shared three dishes which were the perfect amount. We had the goyza, spicy crab noodles, and the shishito peppers. The peppers and noodles were amazing! The goyza were full and had a lots if flavor. Highly recommend The Green Pheasant, we will definitely be back to try more dishes!

Giving it a 4 star because the interior design was a 10/10, and the bathroom had HEATED seats. Food was great, very sophisticated. However, one big con was that the hostess was not very welcoming, to say the least. We got there a little before 5 pm without a reservation (empty restaurant). She reluctantly said she would seat us, but that we would need to be out by 7:30 - what? I’ve never ever been told at a nice restaurant that I needed to be “out” by a certain time. No fear, we were out by 6:45, and the restaurant was still super empty...
