Disappointing experience on Thanksgiving brunch – We had a wonderful dinner at Macke's on Mother's Day, so we were ready for a return visit on Thanksgiving. Alas, the quality of food we experienced on Mother's Day was not available. After a so-so salad course, dinner arrived. The turkey was cold, as was the carrot souffle. The roasted sprouts and squash were adequate but uninspired. The desserts were the biggest disappointment. They were out of the coconut cream pie -- and little wonder. The "derby pie" and "pumpkin pie" wer... read more

Not Sure About Giving Macke's 5 Stars – I'm in town for a conference and always scout out the restaurants that have 4 or 5 stars. I can usually count on the accuracy of other reviewers, but not this time. Sorry folks...this place was good, but not worth 5 stars. I had the filet, seared asparagus over a corn sauce. Everything I had was tasty and the ambiance was just OK. The restaurant is located in a mall (not that that's a bad thing). The inside of the restaurant wasn't enough of a 'retreat-like' feel so that I didn't feel ... read more

Excellent food, staff and ambience! – When we wanted to host a small dinner for some good friends we chose one of our favorite Nashville restaurants, Macke's. Jill was so helpful putting all the details in place and the server, Veronica was charming. Macke's private room was much like being in someone's home except when we departed, none of us remained behind to help wash the dishes or cleanup. A splendid dinner evening was enjoyed by everyone in attendance.

Outstanding Brunch and Event Coordinator – We needed a location to host a Vanderbitl graduation brunch for myself and a few friends and family members. I contacted Jill Brothers at Macke's and was BEYOND thrilled with her and the rest of the Macke's crew. The communication with Jill was fantastic- she helped answer and work through all questions I had. She created a fantastic menu for our group and followed up on every email. The restaurant was perfect for our party of 40 people and the food was delicious. The staff was extr... read more

Outstanding catering – Macke's recently catered my Dad's retirement party in Bowling Green, Ky. and created a beautiful menu with outstanding service! I was a bit nervous about having someone out of town catering the event, but Jill, Jan and Alvy arrived on time and worked their magic! The flowers were perfect for the occasion, the food was de-lish, and the hospitality cannot be beat.

Awesome catering, etc! – Macke's catered my nieces wedding reception this past weekend and exceeded our expectations on every front! The food, flowers and staff were amazing. Jill, Jan and Alvy were such a pleasure to work with and provided us with a lovely event that received many compliments. On top of the delicious food and gorgeous flowers, we had many comments on the kind, southern hospitality their staff provided. We would use them again in a heartbeat!

Magnificent Macke's – We used Macke's for a corporate dinner for out of town customers. Jill made the planning process entirely stress-free. She was always prompt to reply to any questions I had and her attention to detail every step of the way was greatly appreciated. Everyone had wonderful things to say about the food and the atmosphere. We all had the flatbread with shaved prosciutto and the fried green tomatoes "caprese" as appetizers and delicious chocolate bread pudding for dessert. Everyone chose their individual entr... read more

Bridal Brunch Extraordinaire – I wanted a wonderful, out of the ordinary site in the Green Hills area for a bridal brunch for my niece, her bridesmaids, and out of town guests. How fortunate I was to find Macke's!! The restaurant is lovely yet comfortable. The event co-orindator, Jill, was wonderful to work with. She put together a great menu and party setup for the brunch. They even allowed us to have the brunch at 930 am to accommadate the bride's schedule. Tabitha, our server, was ever present and helpful but non-intrusiv... read more

What did they do to make the Chef walk out? – Had lunch at Macke's with my girlfriends on Friday as we usually do but it certainly wasn't up to its usual greatness! Our first problem was it took 25 minutes from us ordering to receiving our food! All of us work but have never in the past not been able to enjoy lunch and some girltalk!! Friend had the salad with apples, pears, and grilled chicken. After removing the apples with brown, mushy spots to another plate, she then said the dressing was not like usual and had too much ... read more
