The 11 Most Fun Dinner Spots In Nashville - Nashville - The Infatuation

"Skull’s is a classed-up dive with good booze, good music, and even better lobster bisque. It’s a Nashville institution—one where you can eat a perfectly seasoned rack of lamb while catching the weekly burlesque shows. There's always a pretty boisterous crowd, so don’t bank on a whole lot of deep, soul-searching conversation. But what you can count on is a show, whether it’s in the form of those burlesque performers or a jazz number from a local quartet up on the checkerboard stage. Whether you’re on a date or flying solo, it’s hard not to get swept up in the festive energy here, especially with Skull’s expertly-made single-barrel old fashioned in hand." - jackie gutierrez jones 2, ann walczak
