Nashville, Tennessee is known for many things, including being a huge hub for the nation’s music scene (including but certainly not limited to country tunes), the black and gold Vanderbilt University Commodores, and of course, good old southern cooking.
However, as far as the culinary scene goes, Nashville certainly isn’t limited to fried chicken and barbecue bites alone. In fact, 80 new competitive and supremely tasty restaurants across all spectrums of culinary life opened last year in the city proper.
While it’s unlikely that you can make them to them all, especially if you’re only visiting for a long weekend (and you want to make sure you can leave with your buttons still done and pants still zippered), we’ve whittled down the top 5 lower-cost yet trendy restaurant options that are sure to make your stay in this southern city worthwhile (and extra tasty).
