Café 100,

"Terrible experience. I made reservations two weeks in advance for my wife's birthday. We were seated quickly and it went down hill from there. It was our servers first day and no one was willing to help her. She could not answer questions that were asked about the menus items and my menu was missing a page. I was not offered another, she said some of them were that way. We were left with empty drink glasses and our sides arrived thirty minutes before our proteins . The server forgot to turn in the order for the chicken and the shrimp. The overall quality of this business has dropped since opening. I'm probably not going back."

"I arrived around 11:30 today, Sunday. Trying to beat the church crowd. There were maybe eight other customers sitting when we arrived. It didn't matter. Still took about an hour and 15 minutes to get the food. When we did receive the food, the toast was burnt and the steak was undercooked. I have no idea what they are doing in that kitchen. The eggs benedict had very little taste. The potatoes were dry. I really hope they get this place under control because it's a great location and we need some good food in this area."

"Food was very very good but the prices were high. The bartender on Valentine’s Day was super rude. We tried to order a drink while we waited for our table and he refused to acknowledge us. Not even a “be with you in a minute”. Our waiter was very nice though."

"I'll start by saying we have eaten at Cafe100 several times prior to writing this review and each of those nights (which weren't holidays) the food, service, everything was phenomenal. But last nights meal was so bad, its completely changed our minds on how we feel about this restaurant. We booked reservations for valentines dinner weeks prior to. The last time we ate at the restaurant they sat us at the chef's table which overlooked the kitchen and being the foodies we are, we loved having the view of the kitchen and the added privacy of that area so when we made reservations we specifically requested and even called the restaurant and confirmed they had our reservation and that we would be at the chef's table. The night of, we arrive at the restaurant at 6:15, 15 minutes prior to our reservations. We're told the table isn't ready yet but they have us checked in and we take 5 steps over to the bar area and each grab a cocktail and wait there...for over an hour... A little after 7:30, we see the couple who had been sitting at the chef's table pay out and leave so we ask for our check at the bar in anticipation of finally being seated. Then we see someone else seated at that table. We make eye contact with the hostess and she immediately apologizes and says she will get us at the next available table. We're sat at a table in the main dining room which is packed, so we now are starving, its been an hour past time for our reservations and we're at a table that's packed in between others where all of us can hear one another's conversations. We order a bottle of wine and as soon as the waiter is ready to take our order we each give our full order from the Valentines prix-fixe menu and are hoping this night turns around. The bread was fantastic, the wine was great, the whipped ricotta was amazing, and everything else that followed was absolutely terrible. The bruschetta was all charred red onion, which again, this is Valentines Day, a mouth full of red onion isn't what we're going for. Fairly certain they had run out of romaine lettuce and the Caesar salad was just a bowl of radicchio, which had a bunch of the hearts in it, no croutons, no added anything, just radicchio and was just inedible. Then the entrees, I ordered the aglio e olio with chicken and my fiancé ordered the salmon. The salmon tasted and had texture like it was frozen and then overcooked. It was very dry and bland. For the aglio e olio, was told they had run out of chicken so I opted for shrimp. Once again, I'm pretty sure they ran out of spaghetti, which is what aglio e olio is traditionally made with, and they brought out a version with bucatini, which was a first for me. The pasta was so undercooked that for the rest of the night I was picking out dried pasta from my teeth. At this point its nine o'clock, and we're just ready to go home. So we ask for the desserts to be boxed up, they did bring us a complimentary glass of champagne which was lovely and they discounted the pasta by 40%. It was just a 100% let down. We both were so excited for our meal and the experience and couldn't have been let down more. Again, we have been before and everything was fantastic. I feel like they could have done two seating times and they would have been able to pull off an amazing night for all. Instead they tried to do too much with 3 seating's and it was a disaster. My bill by the end, with discounted food, was still $220. For $220 for two people, you can get a whole heck of a lot better of an experience at a number of other restaurants in Nashville. If you're looking at eating here, do it on a normal night, not a holiday. Absolute disaster of an evening and we couldn't have been more disappointed."

"Food was delicious. The biscuit donuts we had for dessert were out of this world. Enjoyed the salmon. The shrimp appetizer was also nice. Service and pacing is an area they can improve. I think they'll figure it out. They didn't clear any of our dishes as they brought more to our table and rushed giving us the check. Would definitely come back."
