It’s no secret that in the South, we love to eat! And while you’re guaranteed to encounter some fantastic restaurants in Nashville serving classic southern comfort dishes—smoked meats, fried chicken, sauteed greens, and biscuits—you might be surprised by the diverse selection of other cuisines and fine-dining options as well. And while you don’t want to miss the famous meat and three-plate joints, there are so many restaurants in Nashville to explore, many with award-winning chefs and national recognition.
One other tradition you can’t miss: get in line for some Nashville Hot Chicken, crispy fried chicken dipped in spicy sauce and served with white bread and pickles—pick your sides too, like mac and cheese and creamy coleslaw. Another trend at the restaurants in Nashville you’re bound to notice is the number of chef-driven establishments. Many of these creative chefs (James Beard winners or not) are dedicated to supporting local agriculture and nearby farms.
