This might also be of help (it’s a collection of several articles).

Likewise, here’s a Reddit thread from a year ago about the restaurants where locals tended to take their friends who visited Nashville.

Pretty open. Good steak, bbq, etc. if there is a good spot to watch NFL while eating etc?

 

[Manchester Vol]

Flemings is always good

Shotgun Willie’s on Gallatin has solid BBQ. They usually sell out early, so I’d show up right about the time they open if you want to play it safe. Bob’s steak and Chophouse and Carne Mare are some of my go to steak spots. Go to Edessa on Nolensville Rd and get some damn good Turkish/Kurdish food. That whole area is really diverse and has a lot of ethnic cuisine options if you’re into that.

I usually watch games at Jonathan’s or Alley Pub in Bellvue but I imagine that’s a little out of the way for you. There is a Jonathan’s in Germantown too, but it can get packed.

Jeff Ruby’s for a steak if you’re prepared to spend. It’s a regional “chain” with 4 locations or so in the mid-south.

Lunch? Dinner? High end? BBQ/divey?

Give me some parameters and I’ll help you out.

Dinner, leaving STL around 2 so we will hit around 6-7. Don’t need high end. Just looking for a place local to Nashville that we shouldn’t miss.

Thank you everyone for your replies and your southern hospitality.

Rather than be repetitive, I’d direct you to TrueOrange’s list above. He’s pretty spot on.

And gator tail. And hush puppies.

A lot of my go-to’s on here. Love Gojo and Kien Giang.

I’ll also add the hot honey pepperoni or white pie from Smith&Lentz (brewery in east Nashville with killer pizza)

The Assembly Food Hall has a ton of great options.

International Market over by Belmont is fantastic.

If you are feeling exotic, look into a place called Applebee's.
