It's been a while since I've been to Bob's and I'm sad that it took me this long to go back. Located in the Omni, Bob's Steakhouse has once again served me one of the best meals I've had in a long time.
Before I get to the reviews, I want to call out my waitress Caitlyn. I'm pretty sure I spelled it wrong, but she was fantastic. Ever attentive, polite, and gave the best service!
Our table started off with the appetizer specials, Japanese A5 Wagyu and Oysters Rockefeller. Priced per ounce at 35$ per ounce, my party opted for 7 ounces of that beautiful A5 Wagyu and it even came with a certificate of authenticity. The A5 Wagyu was seared and cooked to a perfect medium rare and cut in seven slices. The steak was so amazingly tender, buttery, and rich. Each bite melted in your mouth in a way one only imagine. The oysters were amazing as well. Cooked to perfection with a nice melty crust of cheese, breading, and herbs. They weren't "soggy/watery" at all that sometimes happens to cooked oysters. Creamy and meaty with just the right amount of salinity, these appetizers kicked off the start of an amazing meal.
I had drinks earlier that night, so I had to settle for a mocktail. By suggestion of Caitlyn, I chose The Big Carrot, which I'm told is their most popular mocktail. Carrot juice with the tang and flavors of lemon and tangerines, accompanied with a bite and carbonation of ginger beer. It was so good, I ended up having two.
Next was my gigantic Wedge Salad, drenched in Bleu cheese dressing and an ample amount of bacon crumbles. The Bleu cheese was so pungent and tangy but in a good way. The salad was nearly perfect. I just wish there were more tomatoes that came with it.
For my entree, I chose the glorious 22 ounce Prime "Côte de Boeuf" Bone-In Ribeye, paired with a glazed carrot, and smashed potatoes. As an additional side, we ordered sautéed mushrooms. The sides were really great, everything from the delicious mushrooms, to that sweet, giant glazed carrot, and the smooth smashed potatoes. I'll be honest though, I didn't eat a lot of the sides because I was so focused on the ribeye. That ribeye was the textbook definition of a perfectly cooked steak. It had a crunchy, crusty, outer sear that was counterbalanced by the most flavorful, tender, and beefy bites. There was just the right ratio of fat to meat. Every bite was glorious.
I finished the meal off with Bob's Key Lime Pie. That too didn't last long. A buttery Nilla water crust was topped with an ultra tart lime custard and a dollop of whipped cream.
Bob's Steak & Chop definitely wins the award for one of the best fancy meals I've had in Nashville. It's not cheap by any means but if you decide to visit, just know everything about Bob's will be memorable.
