Makeready L&L
Perfecting your craft doesn’t come easy, but dedication pays off. At Makeready Libations & Liberation, we rally around the spirit of those not afraid of getting their hands dirty—in need of a friendly face after a hard day’s work.
We take a seasonal approach to tavern food, with a hearty selection that includes rotisserie fired meats, a cheeseburger that’s worth writing home about, and an elevated daily meat & three.
True to our roots, we built a craft beer list that would satisfy the masses. And our classic, but contemporary cocktail list would make your old man proud and your mom blush. As they say, a well-oiled machine never falters.
Valet is located at the main Noelle entrance and is complimentary with $20 purchase.

Executive Chef at Noelle, Diego Fernandez
Bringing nearly two decades of culinary experience to his role, Diego Fernandez is responsible for the concepting and execution for dining menus at the storied property’s various food and beverage outlets as well as catering for meetings, groups and events and in-room dining.
A native of Mexico City, Fernandez discovered his love for cooking at an early age and grew up in the kitchen with his father, Chef Rene Fernandez, who worked at various resorts throughout his career. When Fernandez was 12 years old, he and his family moved to San Antonio, TX where his father opened Azuca Nuevo Latino, a Latin-American dining concept known for showcasing traditional ingredients, flavors and techniques from South and Central America, Spain, the Caribbean and Mexico. In 2014, the talented father-son duo joined forces to open San Antonio, TX restaurant Starfish, which earned accolades from Texas Monthly within its first year of operations.
Throughout his career, Fernandez has spent time in notable kitchens including that of famed San Francisco outpost Quince and Chicago’s three Michelin-star Alinea, led by celebrated Executive Chef Grant Achatz. In October 2019, Fernandez became part of the Makeready team by becoming the executive chef at dining icon The French Room, located inside The Adolphus, a historic Dallas hotel operated by the group. Following a stint as the executive chef at Big Sky, Montana’s Lone Mountain Ranch, Fernandez returned to the Makeready family through his role as Noelle’s executive chef.
Outside of his role at Noelle Nashville, Fernandez enjoys rock climbing, hiking and any possible outdoor adventure.
