Figured I'd put this in here. Bridgestone Arena to invest 7 million for a facelift for a new entrance on the south side of the arena, to compliment the new convention center. What I want to know is what you can do back there that would take 7 million. http://www.tennessean.com/article/20130124/NEWS01/130124013/Bridgestone-Arena-renovations-would-total-7-million

That sounds great. I'd assume if it's in a house, there's probably a reservation system in order to get seating for 6-10 people?

Interesting!

Edit: Never mind.

lol. The more I look into it, the more I think Mad Donna's isn't ideal. I'm making this all harder than it should be. I need to decide on something simple like TGI Fridays. Monell's, is this in Germantown?

Was browsing urban spoon/yelp and came across Mad Donna's in East Nashville. Recommended?

Another thing: I'm looking for some ideas on a decent place to grab dinner with about 8-10 people, a number of us being brand new to living in nashville. We're trying to do an early dinner on the 1st of January, as we have an early morning commitment on the 2nd. I'm hoping to find somewhere affordable (I don't know what everyone's financial situation is so I want to err on the side of caution) and fairly casual that's either in a neat part of town or a restaurant that is unique to Nashville. Thanks ahead!

Right on, thanks for the suggestions. Only hot pot I've had was a couple of spots in Seattle and it was excellent.

Does anyone know if there is a decent asian hot pot place in Nashville? Hot pot being where you order all kinds of ingredients - meats, noodles, vegetables, etc. (and usually all you can eat) and a burner and broth is brought to your table and you cook the contents yourself.

Thanks for the welcome everyone.

Hello all, I'm new to the forum. I was referred by UTGrad09 (whom I don't know personally, but from another Nashville area forum). I'll be moving to Nashville (currently living near Chattanooga) in a few weeks and am just interested to learn more and get more acquainted with the city. I was born near San Francisco and have lived in several other places around the States, but I start a new job in Nashville, in January,
