Sushi by Bou - Nashville @ Dream Nashville

Three of us had the 12 course meal. Every course was excellent and very fresh and tasty. The fatty tuna, mackerel, raw shrimp, scallops and waygu beef were memorable. Our sushi chef was very engaging and knowledgeable. My wife and I will most definitely return!

I could not have asked for more for my first omakase experience! Ironically, the 12 course meal filled me up even after fasting all day. Every single dish was delicious! It is very difficult to decide on a favorite. I ordered an extra dish called the Big Mac, which contained uni, fatty tuna, scallop, and wagyu, and I highly recommend it. Quite literally, it's worth its weight. Both chefs were fantastic and very nice. The maitre d' staff were also very accommodating. Everything was very intimate and felt private. We felt like VIPs. Cannot recommend this place enough!

⭐ Food: 5/5 Outstanding food quality and presentation — the chefs are excellent! Definitely worth the $125 for 17 courses. 🍸 Drinks: 3/5 Nothing special and quite overpriced. The prices listed on the menu don’t include liquor tax, so a $20 drink actually comes out closer to $25. Also, shame on you for charging $16 for a small bottle of sparkling water — that’s excessive, even by fine dining standards. Overall, a great dining experience for the food and service, but the drink pricing could use some reconsideration.

Being honest, I loved it. It wasnt as intimate as I was expecting but the food was so good, the chefs that prepared it was very knowledgeable about how to prepare raw food. I did feel that the saki was over priced for one glass but other than that I enjoyed my experience.

We had the BEST experience at Sushi by Bou in Nashville thanks to Johnny, our omakase chef! He was incredibly personable and made the whole evening so much fun. You can immediately tell he’s an expert – he knew everything about the fish, from where it was sourced to the best way to enjoy each piece. Every bite was perfectly prepared, and he took the time to explain each one in a way that made us appreciate it even more. On top of that, he got to know us personally and kept us laughing with his great sense of humor. If you go, definitely ask for Johnny – he truly made the experience unforgettable!

I had such a wonderful experience here! I mentioned that I don’t like spicy food, and they customized every piece of sushi for me without spice. The attention to detail and the excellent service made me so happy. The food was delicious, and the staff was incredibly attentive. I’ll definitely be coming back! -Maria

First of all, the freshness of the ingredients and the way they were prepared were absolutely top-notch—truly delicious. However, the environment still has a lot of room for improvement. The bar area is in the front, and the actual dining space is hidden behind a curtain. When we arrived, we stepped into the bar and only saw a group of people drinking heavily and a large curtain. We had no idea where we were supposed to go, whether we needed to check in somewhere, and there was no staff to greet us. Secondly, the dining environment was far too noisy. When we tried to converse with the chef, several times the loud noise from the bar made it impossible to hear clearly, since there was only a single curtain for sound insulation. As for the background music—American hip-hop and pop—it’s not really something to critique, since this is Tennessee after all, and even an omakase experience has to adapt to local culture. Other than that, the cocktails, food, value for money, and service while dining all deserve a perfect score—absolutely outstanding. We spent ~$300 for two people including $65 course each and two cocktails each.

Holy crap! This experience is so worth it! The fish is so fresh and flavorful. Our chefs - Johnny, Edwin, and Troy were amazing! Landon and Katie were so attentive to us during the whole experience. I’ve never been a fish fan but this place truly changed me. The flavor in each piece you eat is just indescribable. I am leaving a changed person from the food I just ate. Splurge for this and treat yourself because it is worth it.

Fun date night! We had 6:15pm reservations for Saturday night & arrived around 6pm. Once you enter the Dream hotel lobby, turn right, enter the hotel bar area, then take a left through the double doors past the piano. You'll find yourself in the bar/lounge area of Sushi by Bou where a hostess will greet you. Since we were a little early, they have you hang out in the bar area for cocktails while the prior seating finishes. We were all seated at once at about 6:20 pm as they wanted to give a few extra minutes to people running behind. We did the 12 course omakase with the ongoing promo offer for $55 pp. The quality of the sushi rice & fish were great for the price! The sushi chefs were very friendly & the rest of the wait staff were incredibly personable & attentive the whole. The people sitting all around us were friendly & the entire night was such an enjoyable experience overall. Highly recommend for sushi lovers!

For the price it's absolutely five stars. Solid omakase, excellent service, friendly chefs, cool ambiance, and an overall fun time! Service goes pretty quick (you aren't waiting a ton between each courses) and you get a free shot/toast with the chefs mid-way through. Will be back!

Everything was so amazing! From Monica to Tyler to Edwin to Tim (and everyone else who's name I didn't catch)! The sushi was so fresh and tasteful, and the cocktails, and Saki were fantastic. We will definitely be going back.

I have never had a more fun meal! Edwin created an astounding experience for us. Absolutely amazing, I'm speechless!
