If you’re heading to Nashville and wondering where to eat, I’ve got a few go-to spots to share. I’ve eaten my way around this city more than once, and every time, I’ve found something new to love. Whether you’re after classic hot chicken, elevated Southern fare, or something totally unexpected, Nashville delivers—and then some. I’ve had meals here that I still think about long after I left. If you’re like me and enjoy a mix of bold flavors, local charm, and places with a little personality, I think you’ll have just as much fun discovering these restaurants as I did.
