The Rutledge

Overall the place has a good atmosphere, very cold indoors. Quick to be seated but Service was pretty slow. The sushi was good, got several rolls. Shrimp cocktail was good. The ribeye was just ok, not much flavor. The lobster roll was good, but Brussels sprouts were bland. The filet was bland. Prices are good for the type of food.

Tonight I had one of the best experiences in a nice restaurant that I have had in years. The food was fantastic. I did make the mistake of ordering a happy hour old fashioned. It was horrible. The server asked how everything was and I was honest with her. I ordered a top shelf old fashioned during this interaction. She brought me the new one and said she would have the other one take off. We enjoyed the rest of our meal. When we got the check, the drink that I had half drank had actually been taken off. I was actually shocked. But that was some of the best food and service that I have had in a long time. She got her 20% + the $10 for that drink. 10/10 for The Rutledge in Cool Springs. I will definitely go back.

Went during brunch, and it was...good. Just a few things that kin of made it a meh experience. The star of the show was the filet mignon sushi, very good. Deviled eggs, pretty good. But there just wasn't anything "special" to me. Avocado toast was good, but eggs had no salt or pepper on them, actually none of the eggs seasoned even on other dish. The other plate came with one biscuit I got an extra so my wife could have one. Absolutely nothing special about these biscuits, I'd even guess they are pre-made and just warmed up in an oven. As it was too dense and too uniform to be other wise IMO Apple cobbler was divine and the other star of the show, not too rich, just sweet enough. Honestly, if not for the sushi and desert this would be an unfortunate easily forgettable brunch.( 3 star) As I feel first watch would have done it better at half the price. (Our bill was $120 with tip) I don't think you'll be disappointed with the food, I was just expecting for the prices " a little more" sp
