This is a very quaint place to get a unique twist on brunch. We ordered the cinnamon rolls as a sharable and they did not disappoint. I ordered the Flock Yeah which is like a biscuits and gravy with chicken. It was delicious. Also ordered was the OMG which was tasty. If you like seasoned fries, you will did these. The mac and cheese was average, probably would not order again out of indifference but loved the quaint setup and it has a great outdoor seating area. Loved it.

Food and service were great overall. The burger was well cooked, but the fries were overseasoned with paprika to the point of being inedible. We mentioned this to the staff, and they promptly replaced them with a fresh batch, which we appreciated. The sisig was delicious. I just wish it came with rice by default. Paying $9 for a side of garlic rice felt a bit overpriced. Also, I wish they covered parking. Besides that, their food is always great and will come back again.

Beautiful decor, super friendly staff from the front door to the waiter. Delicious food! The sauces and seasonings were spot on. Even had a kids menu!!! Loved the seating with booth and chairs. Bathroom decor was spot on what i would imagine for Maneet Chauhan. Parking was at the whole foods grocery store and was crazy busy so hard to find a spot. Still cost $13 with validation at the restaurant. Then we walked the block and saw they had parking near restaurant. If it isn’t a busy time i would just park there instead.

This atmosphere here is soooo nice. Quiet environment even with lots of people here having conversations. Mitchell was my server and he had great recommendations of the menu. We were a party of 6, we all had speciality drinks quickly and our food quick. The quality of the food is definitely top notch. I ordered the Bloody Mary and the bird is the word with the homemade hot cause. It was sooooo delicious. There were no bones in the thighs so very easy to eat. My sister got the So Sophisticated with gluten free modifications and the flavors are amazing together. Others got the Mac n cheese, belly of the beast, tots el tio fun!, Brussels spouts and wedge salads. Everyone had a great experience and loved their food. Definitely will come back when we are back in Nashville.

🍽️The Mockingbird – Nashville’s Modern Diner With a Sweet Surprise 🍰✨ If you’re looking for a playful, modern twist on comfort food in Nashville, The Mockingbird will catch your attention right away. My friends and I stopped in for a light dinner, so we ordered several appetizers instead of full entrées — every single one was good. Creative flavors, beautiful presentation, and bold seasoning made it such a fun tasting experience. But the real star of the night? 👉 The “Oh My Pie.” This dessert absolutely stole the show. Creamy, dreamy, perfectly balanced, and unbelievably good — the kind of pie that makes you stop mid-conversation and just savor the moment. If you try one thing here, let it be the Oh My Pie. Fun Fact: The Mockingbird is known for its globally inspired “modern diner” concept created by celebrity chef Maneet Chauhan and chef Brian Riggenbach — so expect creative dishes, playful names, and food with personality. Service & Atmosphere: Friendly, energetic, and fun. A great spot for date night, small bites, or a casual meal before exploring Nashville. Small plates were tasty… but that pie was unforgettable! Try it once, and you’ll understand why they called it “Oh My Pie.” ❤️🤤
