Lebanon Public House — Restaurant in Lebanon

A locally owned restaurant with great vibes and music. We enjoyed their small plates and crafted cocktails. We ordered:

Bruschetta - fresh ingredients with great flavors. The garlic crostini added the right amount of crunch to this dish. (4.5/5 🌟) Deviled eggs - well prepared dish with capers and prosciutto to enhance. (4/5 🌟) Stuffed mushrooms - great flavors, we enjoyed this dish! (5/5 🌟) Braised beef tacos - well prepared and great flavors. We would order these again. (5/5 🌟) Petite cheesecake - the accompanying sauce and berries lightened this dish. The graham cracker crust was delicious. (5/5 🌟) Polly Sparrow's rotating dessert - great espresso Martini cupcake from a local bakery! (5/5 🌟)

Would highly recommend if you are in the area and like small plates and...

Great start! 5 stars on environment, decor, lighting m, and music!

Areas for improvement to be considered a “Social”: Martini offerings - need to add ingredients for regular martinis (i.e. orange bitters), do not use heavy cream in espresso martinis Beer - add Stella, selection of IPA tap and Michelob light is not a what those used to other ”Social” venues appreciate.

Food Feedback: Caprese salad - use Campari or Roma tomatoes instead of refrigerated garden tomatoes (never refrigerate tomatoes!), withhold salt and pepper, increase balsamic vinegars and basil (this should be the only seasonings). Italian meatball: very good recipe, would be better if not like warm, marinara was ok. Italian bread - seemed to be sliced grocery store variety, not fresh or warm. Shrimp Scampi...

My wife and I are camping at Cedars of Lebanon State Park, about 6 or 7 miles south of Lebanon, TN. It was our wedding anniversary, so we were looking for a nice place for dinner. Reviews of Lebanon Public House were good, so let's go see. Not disappointed in the least. Gracious host, Carol, was so pleasant, friendly and welcoming. A short wait to be seated. Service quick. Drinks very good, but the food was exceptional. Tapas for sharing were all well made and so tasty. Wish we lived closer. Could be our "go to" place. Thanks for helping to make our anniversary...
