Reservations are required to dine for lunch + dinner. If you don’t see any availability on your desired date, you can request a reservation via OpenTable! When you add your name, you will receive an immediate notification when another guest cancels.

Walk-ins only for Sunday nights at Locust! First come, first served. Come to the restaurant and add your name to our waitlist with our host. We’ll get you in as soon as we can.

Short answer: Seafood! Our menu is made up primarily of seafood dishes, with a large raw bar selection as well as cooked fish and shellfish. You can view a sample menu by clicking here.

We're offering a much more casual service in the evenings – just dumplings, drinks, and rotating snacks on the menu. We'll occasionally offer a special when it feels right. Martinis are on the menu. Guinness on draft, always. The full Locust menu is available for lunch only. You can view a sample menu by clicking here.

We are not able to cater to vegetarian or vegan diets. While we can accommodate most other dietary restrictions, we do not alter existing dishes to cater to restrictions. Please notify us of any allergies in your party ahead of your visit by noting them on your reservation or reaching out to our team at info@locustnashville.com.

We require a $50.00 per person deposit at the time of booking to secure your reservation. This is applied as a credit on your check at the end of your visit.

You can edit, reschedule, or cancel your reservation manually via SevenRooms up to 24 hours before your scheduled arrival time. Follow the link in your confirmation email to make these changes yourself, or reply to your confirmation email to request assistance from our team! Your deposit is non-refundable if you cancel within 24 hours of your scheduled time or do not show up for your reservation. Please send us a message via SevenRooms if you need to cancel within the 24-hour window.

Your confirmation email from SevenRooms includes a link to ‘manage reservation’. This will take you to a questionnaire where you can easily update your reservation to include any information you want or need us to know. You can even upload a profile picture!

We release reservations one month in advance at 10:00 AM (CST). For example, all reservations for the month of February are released on January 1st at 10:00 AM.

We only accept reservations for parties of up to 4 guests. Please note that we cannot combine separate reservations to create large parties, and we will not move tables in the dining room to seat parties together. We’ve only got so much space!

Kids of all ages are welcome at Locust! We do not have booster seats or highchairs, but we can do our best to provide additional space to accommodate strollers or carriers. Please let us know ahead of time if you’ll be dining with children so we can better plan for these arrangements.

If you have interest in hosting a private event at Locust, please reach out to us at info@locustnashville.com.

Please Note: 12South is currently under development and experiencing an increase in construction. Please make accommodations to allow extra time to find parking prior to your reservation time.
