2probert4 8 Report post Posted April 13, 2008 There are a few good places to eat on Broadway if you wish to do so prior to the game... Baileys - they have nice Happy Hour Beer Prices, and the food is really good. Lots of Pred fans go there, so be prepared. Its on the opposite side of the street from the Sommet Center, go past Tootsies and those little bars, you'll run into it. If you get to the Hard Rock you've gone too far but it does say Baileys in the window. Big River - go down Broadway, its directly across the street from the Hard Rock. Prime Rib, and a Microbrewery. Joes Crab Shack - behind Big River, you'll see it from Broadway, but they have signs inside about how they don't serve Red Wing fans - I just tell them to shuttup and take my order and get my beer.... On 2nd Ave South (turn left at the Hard Rock) there is a Spaghetti Factory on the right side of the street, and a few other restaurants up that side, and a Hooters. Where 2nd and Commerce intersect there is a pizza place, which isnt bad. There are other places between 2nd Ave South and the Sommet Center, Rippys, and next to the Sommet Center there is a sports bar that is connected to the Hilton, very nice, but pricey. If youre lucky you will see the Wings going to the arena, that Hotel is where the players stay. For those flying in - Take Briley Pky WEST to Opry Mills Mall - they have a Macaroni Grill inside (very good) and there is another place inside (Can't think of the name) but they have aquariums all around the restaurant. Nice Mall also, with a Cinema and IMAX, along with a Dave and Busters. This place is located next to Opryland Hotel. Im sure PredFX can think of some spots that I've neglected to post, but there is always GOOGLE. The crying today is hilarious, they got screwed and the Wings get all the calls, wah wah wah. Just be careful when the game is over people.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChelisChick 174 Report post Posted April 13, 2008 The last Wings game we went to, the players were staying at the Rennaisance Hotel. They have a restaurant and a little Starbucks off of the lobby. That's where we saw Datsyuk playing solitaire on one of the laptops. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Couldn't get near him due to the screaming girls. Reniassance is just around the corner though, its a sweet venue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedFX 48 Report post Posted April 13, 2008 Well if you want PredFX's advice... Alot of pubs and music clubs on Broadway if you want to throw down a few before or after the game. Any one of those is good, but like Probert said, you might have a couple encounters with some rogue Preds fans-more so after the game. The Hilton Sports Grill (formerly Eddie's) is always extremely crowded before the game, so either go early or wait til after. Rippy's is terrible, service is slow and the food is nothing special. There is a Sbarro and a Quiznos on Commerce, within walking distance to the arena (next to the CMT building). Also, if anyone is around for breakfast, Pancake Pantry on West End (near the Vanderbilt campus) is a must try. It is a little pricy, but the food is absolutely worth it.

FireCaptain 563 Report post Posted April 13, 2008 Depending on the weather Monday night, I'll probably end up at that rooftop bar next to the Sommet after the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FireCaptain 563 Report post Posted April 15, 2008 Decided on a nice after game meal at Morton's. If you've never been to a Morton, save your pennies and make the trip. I had an UNBELIEVABLE steak. This steak was so tender and juicy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
