Opry Backstage Grill at The Inn at Opryland

Awesome place. Our server sang on stage! It was great! Made us smile. Shrimp and grits were real good, and buttery. Atmosphere good for kids. It was perfect, as we avoided any of the other "busy" nightlife areas around. We also stayed at the hotel on another visit - very nice.

Kind of pricy for the quality and the service isn't that great. Convenient if you're staying at the hotel though.

My party of 8 all stayed at the hotel. I went down to mark the table and they allowed me to sit at a table of my selection, stage side. The server (Jeremy) was a little busy when everyone showed up. So, the assistant manager (Michael) came over to take the drink order to get the table started. Once Jeremy got caught up he came over for some friendly banter and take our food order! We ordered the loaded tot appetizer and our meal at the same time. The one hiccup was one of our guest ordered the pulled pork nachos for an entrée and he received them as we got our tots. My wife and I split the 3 meat trio! My only wish and request is that they give you multiple meats to choose from. Or have a 4 meat option and add the smoked sausage as an option! Everyone at our table order all the smoked meat except for the wings. My ranking for the meats I had. #1 - Ribs. Great oak smoked flavor and was mopped with a vinegar while smoking! #2 - Smoked sausage. Great smoked flavor and brought a punch of heat, that I was looking for! #3 - Pulled Pork. Their pork brought it back to life for me. Because we host a lot in the summer, pulled pork is our go to and I was burnt out on it. But theirs revitalized my love for the pulled pork! #4 - Brisket. This I feel would have been #1 had we caught it straight off the smoker. Ours this night seemed like it was last nights reheat. But they did a DAMN good job reheating it with grease and a flattop. I still highly recommend the brisket. Luke and Jessica I believe is who played 2/16/24. They were good and played great music while we ate. They were personable and came to talk to our table during their intermission! If you are reading this while you are in a room, on the road or waiting. Wait longer and stay to enjoy the live music and great smoked meats. Avoid walking across the street. The portion sizes are bigger here! ENJOY!

Had the burger with cheddar cheese..was absolutely great

Good food and great service. We were surprised when one of the servers sung a Disney song for our youngest daughter. Very thoughtful.

Free shuttle to the big mall

Excellent food and service!
