City Tap
Exterior
I was in Nashville on business and by the time we were done, I was starving. I asked the hotel staff members for a suggestion and all of them mentioned City Tap. With that many recommendations, I could not go wrong. The greatest thing about the recommendation was City Tap was right across the street.
The restaurant has a fantastic ambiance as it is very spacious, open and has a welcoming feeling. I was greeted by the bar tender and she was extremely friendly (Sorry I don’t remember her name). I asked for a food recommendation becuase it was my first time eating at City Tap and she rattled off several options.
The bar tender walked me to the bar, told me to grab a seat and handed me a menu to finish looking over the food options including the dishes she recommended. While I was reviewing the menu, she asked if I wanted some water or something else to drink. My tradition is to always try the local beer if there is a local brewery and the bar tender recommended Hap and Harry’s so that’s what I went with Larger… GOOD GOODNESS WHAT A BEER!
So after downing one beer and starting on my second beer, I decided to go with the SHORT RIB & KIMCHI BURGER GOOD LAWD! This burger was “ALL THAT” and more! I added avocado, egg and bacon. Now don’t get me wrong… the burger was awesome without the additions but I love egg, avocado and bacon so I add it to almost every burger I get if its an option. The short rib was so tender and seasoned very well. The mix of kimchi and BBQ aioli sauce made my palate crave for more.
I also had a side salad but it does not compare to the burger so I will say it was good but its a salad. If you are ever in Nashville, I highly recommend you stop by and give them a try. I promise you will not be disappointed. If you do stop by, tell them Drew sent ya!
