I was pleasantly surprised by this spot. Located at the Gaylord property, the atmosphere is great. Gorgeous greenery and water with fountains and waterfalls, it's just so pretty. The place itself has limited menu but I thought it was pretty reasonably priced for being a hotel restaurant. I ordered a burrito which was HUGE (I can easily see someone splitting it between two people if you're not too hungry!), very flavorful and delicious. Bonvoy elite members get a free side of chips and salsa which is normally $6 on the menu, not bad. Service was very friendly. The place can get crowded based on how busy the hotel is, this place is humongous and hosts conferences and conventions frequently.

My experience here was great! Took a seat at the bar for dinner, and was served promptly. I ordered 3 tacos a la carte - barbacoa, carnitas, and carne asada. They were delicious! Generous amount of juicy well seasoned meat and fresh and flavorful toppings. They aren't necessarily the most traditional, but I enjoyed them. I also got a side of the street corn, which was very tasty. Only thing is that I probably over ordered. Was not a light meal and this STUFFED me. For drinks, I started with their classic margarita, which was great. Pretty boozy. Then overheard someone else at the bar ask for a mescal margarita which sounded amazing so I tried that next. They make this really well here! It was very good.

Lovely little cantina tucked away in the Gaylord. The food was good - probably the best of the property restaurants we tried. Sangria - excellent! Service - outstanding. So overpriced but par for the hotel.

The opulence & grandeur of the Opryland Resort is unmatched. Having this restaurant nestled right in there is giving perfect views. My nachos were seasoned well and not hot like I anticipated they would be. We did lunch here and my colleague did rave about her Torta sandwich. Our waitress was sweet & pleasant. We had a great lunch here.

Deliciously spicy crab tostado! This app is a must. I loved it, the right about of spice that l in here's for a little and I washed it down with a mango agua Fresca while I waited for my to-go order. I sat at the bar where Andy served me. I really enjoyed her company and some mommy-free time. For the to-go order, I ordered the carnitas taco and carnitas burrito with elote. The taco was pretty much falling apart so I didn't get to enjoy it too much but my partner loved the heck out of the burrito. The elote was creamy and pretty tasty. I would definitely eat here again.

This was the second restaurant my group tried one evening for late dinner in the resort. This was my favorite of the 3 we tried. Selection was great. Service was awesome, which was very nice even though we came close to closing time. Cute seating in the outside area because of the lush gardens. And the salsas were excellent. Tacos were very good. I got plantains too, and they were delicious. The best part was price! Much better priced than the Italian next to it.
