The cocktails are perfectly true to classic tiki taste without being cookie-cutter. Awesome atmosphere and super cool staff. I’ll be back a bunch.���
Great first experience . Drinks are amazing . We didn’t try the food but, what was coming out made me drool . Very friendly staff and bartenders . They were crowded but I never felt like I was ignored which is refreshing . You can tell they put a lot of work into the atmosphere . It paid off ! I love it !

This place was recommended by a LYFT driver of ours. So glad we took the suggestion, it was such a cool place! It’s kinda retro/bohemian chic, has an insanely elevated, quirky, yet unpretentious vibe/staff/crowd. The food was so good & came pretty quickly. The drinks were strong, yet flavorful & delicious & everything was so picturesque (camera eats first)! Our waiter was so nice, accommodating & lots of fun. They had Bay Watch playing on the bar TVs & it was hilariously distracting in the best & most welcome of ways to watch & see how it ages, as we ate/drank/laughed at the episode. My gf & I said we may start to a re-watch of that serious after how ridiculously fun we had narrating & discussing the episodes we watched while there.
Great place for drinks and small plates. The Pandan drink was my favorite of the night. The fries were the perfect pairing to our drinks. Pina colada was on the stronger side for me. First sip and I was hit with the alcohol right away. We ordered the chicken wings with the passion fruit sauce and it was an interesting flavor for sure. It was sweet with a bit of tanginess from the passion fruit.
I loved the decor and the outdoor seating as well. Perfect for get togethers, girls night, and date nights for sure!

Cool atmosphere and concept, drink menu and food menu are unique. Drinks are expensive, but strong so at least you know you’re getting your moneys worth. I personally would prefer a weaker drink for less of a price. Food was alright, I got Tijuana fries. My friend got some sort of fried rice dish I believe and it was spicy which she wasn’t expecting or wanting. It seems many of their menu items were spicy which I don’t personally mind, doesn’t leave a lot of options for people who don’t want spice though. Additionally, their park spaces are very limited, I had to park across the street at Publix and jaywalk, it’s a pretty busy street so that was an inconvenience. This is a review from my visit in August of 2022, it’s possible their menu and the experience have changed since then.
Pearl Diver has some the most magical drinks you will experience! Most of them have some botanical aspect and are superbly crafted to really wow you both visually and to taste.
The atmosphere is very interesting as it seems high class, but also a little bit nautical in nature. I love to sit outside in the "garden" area during the spring, summer, and fall.
The food is delicious, but I don't usually go that route due to the high prices. Everything here is very expensive so for me it's usually a 1-2 drink max and I have to leave.
Great place for a casual social drop-in. If you want to eat, make sure you get a reservation.
I gave the service a 3 star solely due to how long it takes them to craft the exquisite drinks and the attitude of the bartenders (they're not very nice to people who don't dress well in my experience). You typically will wait in the line for approximately 20-30 minutes to get a drink.
This is one of the best cocktails I have had! This is the YUM YUM with lemon grass. So well balanced. The atmosphere was like a '70s retro vibe. Very enjoyable aesthetically pleasing lots of greenery. Had the empanada, very good and nice and crunchy. Then had the Veggie Lo Mein. It was the same veggie as you getting any certified. There was not much veggie in it at all and it was not that tasting.
We came to Nashville to celebrate my wife’s birthday, and we were looking for a close place to grab a bite. We found Pearl Diver. The atmosphere was almost as awesome as the staff. It was the coolest 60ish nautical theme with small touches that made the experience incredible. The hosts, Virginia and Melanie, were so welcoming and knowledgeable of the interior design inspirations, Peyton made the most refreshing drinks I’ve ever had (Highly recommend the El Padrino!), and the food was amazing. The manager, Madison, seated us and checked on us throughout our meal. Everyone was so polite and welcoming. 12/10 experience if you’re looking for a small location away from the Broadway noise.
Great, drink selection with no alcohol and low alcohol options. They are very affordable with a beautiful design to their drinks. I will definitely be back.
Great Halloween atmosphere! Awesome drinks! My food came out cold but had a good flavor! Great service!
The place is so aesthetically pleasing inside and out. They had it decked out in Halloween decor and music. Our server was really nice and our food was perfectly seasoned. We thoroughly enjoyed the end of our anniversary weekend at Pearl Diver!!
Food was great. I had the Green Chile burger and fries, the misses had the Tijuana fries and the veggie egg rolls. It was all great. The drinks are good too and not very expensive. I have been twice to this place and the music is great.
