What Jason P likes about Food Village:
Hi Shoney's crew! Me and my wife came from Canada to Nashville for CMA Fest and stayed at a hotel across the street. We decided to come and try you guys out and couldn't have been happier! We had the plentiful buffet. From the friendly staff to the hot, tasty food, cold crisp salads, and decent atmosphere, we REALLY enjoyed ourselves! Some other reviews were pretty critical, but I think they're expecting a Michelin s... View all feedback. What Debbie doesn't like about Food Village:
Edited 6/7/24 May, 2023 (5 stars) Burgers were great, staff was excellent! Music was a bit louder than normal but we had a nice dinner. Newer remodel, very clean looking. No cash at this restaurant but I’m sure there’s a reason for it, didn’t ask. We will definitely go again if we pass through again. __________________________________ May,2024-one year later (1 star) Very different visit this time only a year later.... View all feedback.

I will have to admit even though the rest of the experience was not so pleasant, the food was actually amazing.

The restaurant received mixed reviews, including complaints about slow service, mediocre food, and some staff apathy. However, there were positive notes about the mimosas, friendly managers, and efficient management of seating issues. The breakfast bar stood out for its fresh and tasty offerings, especially the fried chicken and mashed potatoes. Overall, Shoney's seems to evoke nostalgia for some diners as an American staple, with the potential for improvement in service and consistency.

The breakfast bar was good and well maintained. The service was very slow though. Will come back though.
