Explore these standout dishes at some of Nashville's best resturants

Nasvhille's Foodie Scene rivals that of some of the largest cities in the country.  We've rounded up some of the best of what our area has to offer. 

Shot Gun Willie’s BBQ is a beef-centric “Real Texas BBQ'' BBQ shop in East Nashville, TN. You’ll find the '' BEST BRISKET” & “BEST RIBS '' in Nashville, hands down. Smoked half chicken, smoked sausage, pulled pork, and sides like Mr. Tony’s Magic Green Beans or the Queso Mac N Cheese that are Chef’s Kiss! Lastly, don’t sleep on the Texas Sheet Cake & Bourbon Banana Pudding made daily in-house.  https://sgwbbq.com/

Nashville is known for its Meat & Three restaurants, and MacHenry’s is a modern take on the classic cafeteria-style Meat & Three. You’ll enjoy meat options like a classic Southern meatloaf with a bourbon bbq sauce slathered on top with sides like mac n cheese, fried brussel sprouts, corn pudding, and fresh green beans (not from a can). Everything is made in-house from scratch. https://www.eatatmachenrys.com/

Tennessee Brew Works makes the best “finely tuned craft beer,“ but they also make a Five Beer Burger that will knock your socks off! You might ask why it is called a five-beer burger. They use five of their beers to make the bun, pickles, comeback sauce, ketchup, and caramelized onions. It’s a staple on the menu and a guest favorite. https://www.tnbrew.com/

Black Rabbit has a dreamy happy hour with wood-fired snacks like their infamous rabbit rolls and handmade corn tortillas for the tacos. You can sit by the fireplace and sip on $5 glasses of wine, $5 cocktails, and $2 off draft beer and 2-for-1 canned beers from 4 pm- 6 pm, Monday thru Saturday. Check out the live music schedule for a date night treat on the weekend. https://www.blackrabbittn.com/

The Whipped Feta at Butcher & Bee has a cult following, and rightfully so! It's served with fermented honey & grilled pita!  https://www.butcherandbee.com/nashville

This cake is not only decadent but also a work of art. All the cakes at Chef’s Market are amazing, but the Irish Cream takes the cake! You can snag a slice from the dessert case or order a whole cake. https://www.chefsmarket.com/

Chef Trey Cioccia’s Pimento Cheese Beignets are the perfect way to start a meal at The Farm House, downtown Nashville, TN. You must order the skillet cornbread with whipped steens butter, the bone in pork chop, and the gouda mac n cheese. The Farm House host Saturday + Sunday brunch that is also phenomenal with bottomless mimosas and Bloody Marys. https://www.thefarmhousetn.com/

The raw bar at Marsh House is a pièce de résistance! You can order a la carte or go all in and order a seafood tower or a boat! Hands down, the best oysters, shrimp, ceviche, and smoked fish dips! The wine + cocktails are amazing too! https://www.marshhouserestaurant.com/
