Nashville non-MAGA

Hi,

I am visiting Nashville for a work conference in a few weeks. I am really trying to support establishments that who are not owned or managed by crazy MAGA people. I would consider myself a foodie and I am open to kinda whatever, but I have been looking at Black Rabbit, The Iberian Pig, or Oak Steakhouse.

Any one have insight to any of these places? Or any other places they would recommend?

Thank you!

Hidden Gem: Aroi by Smiley Thai

Sometimes the best restaurants are the ones slightly off the beaten path and Aroi did not disappoint. As a big fan of Thai and Japanese food, I was pleasantly surprised by the vast selection, quality, and flavor of the dishes. Even more so the thing I loved the most was the design and atmosphere; it was very cozy, dimly lit, and overall aesthetically pleasing. The service was great and the food was brought out very fast, which depending on what mood you're in can be a good or bad thing. Also, I want to mention that their plating was on point and beautiful. Aroi will now become one of my go-to spots in Nashville and is the epitome of a hidden gem. I don't drink anymore, but being a former beverage director for many bars and restaurants, their selection was vast and the cocktails looked well thought out for the type of restaurant it is. Also, they serve "BeerLao", which in my opinion is the best beer on earth. Do yourself a favor and go try this hidden gem...

New Spots (Food/Cocktails)

My wife and I head up to Nashville from Atlanta every 3-4 months or so as it makes a nice weekend getaway. We typically spend most of our time off Broadway hitting up some of the great food and drink spots Nashville has to offer.

I feel like we have been to some great spots, but may be missing some as we are usually doing a lot of the same ones when we come up. We've done Bastion a few times and Tailor for course dinners. Both have always been amazing. Rolf and Daughters is great as well. Kisser for lunch.

For cocktails, we always do Attaboy and Chopper for Tiki. Is there anything new and exciting to try or just something off of our list that is a no-brainer?

Side note my wife is a vegetarian and I am not. If that makes a difference in suggestions...

Thanks!

Party of 8 dinner

In town for reunion next week, so I need a place that takes reservations. Ideally near Vanderbilt.

West end chilis does not take reservations, and my lifetime ban from 20 years ago is probably still enforced.

Anyways!

1 vegetarian, everyone else is pretty basic with food requirements. Ideally somewhere not super loud. Not super expensive, but good food im willing to splurge.

Help me out Nashville!

Best Caribbean food?

I might have found the Caribbean spot I was missing in Riddim n’ Spice. Everything’s made in house and they have a great staff serving up the food. Anyone have other recommendations for Caribbean food in Nashville?

looking for thick burgers cooked medium/medium rare

I love a good smashburger, but miss a well cooked medium rare burger. Assuming some steakhouses around here would have some option, but would appreciate more middle of the road options if possible. Any recs?

Bastion vs Tailor vs Catbird Seat

So as a follow up to the post below, it turns out that we're actually going to only have 6 in the group which I think opens us up to some more options. Outside of limitations on # of people I was considering Tailor, Bastion and Catbird seat. I think now that we only have 6 people those all might work (not 100% sure on Catbird).

For a group of 6 guys, would you recommend one over the other? I was about to book Tailor but then checked out Bastion when I realized we were down to 6 and it looks pretty cool, especially the bar out front. My only worry is that it looks like they do reservations starting the 1st of each month for that month and we're going the first weekend of December so I wasn't sure if things would sell out quick and we'd be out of luck. Tailor is available now but needs to be prepaid and isn't refundable.

Please try out Wabash Southern Kitchen. Nashville needs more restaurants like this

In a foodie city like Nashville where eating out can sometimes be $25-40 per person and the food tastes like microwaved garbage… restaurants like Wabash Southern Kitchen really stick out.

First of all… yes this isn’t in east Nashville or even an area like Brentwood or Franklin. Nolensville is a bit out of the way and Nolensville Pike absolutely sucks.

But my gosh, this restaurant is absolutely fantastic.

Two main reasons why you need to go

  1. All food is homemade in-house. They have all of the southern classics like Catfish, Meatloat, Chicken Tenders, and more. There’s a heartier Meat & 2/3 menu but they also have some smaller dishes on the menu as well.

And all of these options are great. Again… it’s homemade. I’ve been to places in Nashville that will charge you $20 for “hand made Nashville hot chicken” and you know that shit was microwaved in the back and dunked in some buffalo sauce.

This is one of the few restaurants where I can visually see that the chicken was hand battered and fried. And it was phenomenal.

B) it’s affordable. Their meat & 2/3 section is all under $20. The most expensive chicken tender basket is $16. And they have a full section of the menu with smaller portions that is all under $10. $10!!

You can get a homemade chicken sandwich (including the bread!) that is cheaper than McDonalds for a meal. Absolutely insane.

If you are in the area for some reason or are just craving some good ole southern food… please please please support this restaurant. We need more places like this that create amazing homemade food at affordable prices.

First Time At Two Ten Jack

Been on a noodle kick lately so I’m finally getting around to TTJ.

For those that have been there before, I’m split between the tonkatsu, the tantanmen and the crab noodles. Any recommendations?

Best Bread Pudding in Nashville?

Bread pudding is Top 3 desserts for me, and I know where to get good tiramisu and strawberry rhubarb pie. Can’t point to an absolute banger for this one though (at least not anymore, RIP 55 Souths banana bread pudding)

Any reccs?
