"Kid Rock’s establishment ruined the days when you could casually walk down Broadway and decide where to check out based on the music coming out of each bar. There’s a full band going hard from open to close, and Kid clearly insists that only his music blasts through the speakers in between. It looks like a giant warehouse taken over by “rock and roll, man” and it smells like bad decisions as soon as you walk in. The main floor bar is outfitted with blacklights, a slang term for female anatomy is illuminated in pink neon on the second floor, and the menu has a staggering amount of syrupy sweet drinks with names like Fist of Rage. All of this is supposed to complement a $56 ribeye. For a place where the goal is to be the loudest and most obnoxious, it thankfully employs some powerhouse vocal talent most of the time." - ann walczak

"The merch table at Kid Rock’s Big Ass Honky Tonk & Rock ‘n’ Roll Steakhouse on Lower Broad sells bumper stickers that read: “Don’t turn Nashville into the sh*t hole city you moved here from.”" - Daniel Maurer
"Kid Rock’s Big Ass Honky Tonk & Rock ’N’ Roll Steakhouse, which remains open — coincidentally, at the same intersection as Ole Red and Luke’s 32 Bridge." - Madeleine Davies
"Kid Rock’s Big Ass Honky-Tonk Steakhouse received a citation from the Metro Public Health Department for being out of compliance with coronavirus-related public health orders, specifically for not having employees wear face coverings. A photo of a packed crowd at the honky-tonk caused a stir on social media." - Delia Jo Ramsey
