Redheaded Stranger — Restaurant in Nashville-Davidson

Highly disappointed. After reading the reviews here I had high hopes for supporting a newer restaurant here in town. However, I was severely disappointed for several reasons.

Pros: -friendly staff -decent sized patio -clean bathroom (Nothing food-related… foreshadowing )

Cons: 30min to wait in line to order… outside… with ONE register. ONE register. In 2023, and you gave ONE register? Suggestion to owner: have you ever calculated how much money you were losing out on per day? To require your tenants to pay when ordering like a fast food joint and have only one cash register makes zero sense. ONE HOUR WAIT FOR FOOD. Yes you read that right, meaning that it took one hour from the time we ordered and paid to when our measly McDonald’s happy meal sized burger was delivered to our table. I I cannot confirm how many customers you lose per day due to the substantially and unreasonably long line. However, what I can confirm is how many people left while I was sitting there waiting for my food. As I inquired at the cashier on how long. I I cannot confirm how many customers you lose per day due to the substantially and unreasonably long line. However, what I can confirm is how many people left while I was sitting there waiting for my food. As I inquired at the cashier on how how much longer we would have to wait, after mind you waiting for at least an hour, the cashier was nice enough to tell the next three customers that the weight for food would be approximately one hour or more. Two of the three customers immediately left the restaurant! Absurd! Food quality and originality: after being told by several other customers in line that the green chili burger was out of this world, I aligned this with the “Gotta have it” mentality. Wow, was I extremely disappointed. When the burger arrived to my table, I almost grabbed the waiter, and told him that this item was not mine… I had ordered the green chili burger. Oh no, actually, this was my order. The disappointment here was both the half dollar size of the burger and also the fact that there was really no substance or originality to it. There is a McDonald’s type of patty and a bun that was at least fairly soft, I would say, that’s the only positive of the burger.

Suffice to say, I will not be returning here. Severe disappointment is an understatement. Not sure if the other ratings here are from paid or complimentary meals but I can’t bear to rate it anything higher...

Redheaded Stranger in Nashville. I had read the reviews & looked forward to our visit. This was a HUGE disappointment!

When you first walk in, there is a small area to stand to order your food. Once you place your order & pay, they give you a number to place on the table for someone to bring you your food. So 15 minutes standing in line, then another 35 minutes to bring the food. My food arrived before my friends food. So the dilemma.. do I wait to eat with her & let the food get cold? Or eat without her & hope her food arrives soon. This was every table by the way, not just ours. I chose to eat without her.

These tacos had potential but unfortunately they were so bland & tasteless.

I ordered the #3 Roasted chicken, refried beans, jalapeño, lime crema & jack cheese $3.95 & #7 Chopped brisket, american cheese & Dr. Pepper hot sauce $4.95

My friend Charity Cruz ordered the #7 also & the #9 Pulled pork, sweet onions, cilantro, jack cheese & jalapeño hot sauce $3.95 She also ordered the Green Chile Cheeseburger it’s a 4oz bear creek beef patty, bacon, green chiles & american cheese. $7.00

There’s a sign that “suggests” you order 3-4 tacos.. they weren’t lying about how small they are! And if they had been any good we would’ve ordered more, thankfully we did not. The sauces are on the table & you put as much as you’d like. I wish they had a milder sauce, maybe they would’ve given it some type of taste. The green sauce was the jalapeño aka greenweaver. It’s supposed to be mild & fresh with cilantro & avocado. The Dr. Pepper sauce was supposed to be moderate & sweet with arbol chiles. The orange sauce is aka dreamweaver. This is spicy & nuanced with fermented habanero, citrus & curry spices. All three were too spicy for my taste.

My roasted chicken taco was very tender but it was bland. The chopped brisket was the same. Both very tender just very bland with NO seasonings.

The pulled pork was the best one out of the three. It actually had flavor to it.

The hamburger was so salty neither one of us could eat it. We thought maybe it was the bacon making it salty. It was not. The bacon was cooked perfectly.

We did speak with the manager who offered to remake it or refund it. We...

Tonight, I got a few things from this place via Uber Eats because of the good rating on all the apps... And it was the most disgusting food I've ever had the misfortune to try to eat. I know, I know. Someone will respond and say that I'm some kind of guy who doesn't like "authentic" food. Well, no, my friend, I lived in Houston, TX for years. There, I enjoyed dining at many roadside carts/taco trucks (where English was not spoken)--where I would get the cactus, tripa, and lengua tacos that I love so much. The little old "tamale lady" who came by our office once a month and sold football sized "packs" of tamales for $20. The Argentinian steakhouses that actually know how to make proper morcilla. The Mexico City style bistro that makes a turkey-based black mole that's one of the best things I've ever had good fortune to eat. Excellent tortas from a place that was literally a hole in the wall! And don't forget any of Chef H's places... especially the one with the chupalines on the menu. So, yeah, now that we agree that I know what I'm talking about, the food I got here is worse than any fast food I've ever gotten. I hate wasting meat because some beautiful and unique animal died just so some utterly careless and incompetent person(s) could make it waste, but I'm having to throw unspoiled meat into the garbage for the first time ever in my life. Absolutely the worst execution I've ever had the misfortune to witness... People in decveloping countries cooking "mystery meats" outdoors over charcoal in half a 55 gallon oil drum do far, far, far better than this nonsense. But, you know, my mom always told me that I had to say two nice things about someone after one bad thing (you know, after the whole "this place made the worst food I've ever tried to eat in my life" thing)... So, my two nice things are (1) the order was filled in a relatively timely fashion and (2) I received something that approximated each item that I ordered. So, yeah, one star only because I...
