The Belmont location is much faster and easier than the downtown location. The wings are amazing and I usually get the dry rub and the sauces on the side. The brisket burger is now my new favorite here. But in all honestly, everything here is good. This is my go to BBQ place. Average price is $14 per item.

Good coffee, Right around the street from the house. The crepes are delicious but please don't get the plain one. It's boring and tasteless. The sandwiches are great as well. I usually get the Cuban, I believe.

Love this place and the atmosphere. They get you to stand up and dance with everyone else. This is a shared table place (so grab a scoop and pass to your neighbor at the table) but don't worry, there's 5-6 courses! Also, bring you own wine for a cork fee. The food is beyond delicious!

The restaurant is amazing. Hard to get a reservation but worth it once you do. It's a prefixed menu and the service is outstanding. GO GO GO! If you're not going to the restaurant, the bar is great as well. The music is a mix of rnb, house, hip hop, alternative upbeat music. I usually get a daily curated drink I see on the chalk board (which is to the right of the end of the bar, on the wall).

What the company stands by is amazing. A nonprofit social enterprise helping heal, restore, and employ women survivors of trafficking, prostitution, and addiction. Their food is great. The love heals latte is one of my favorites. The burger of the week is delicious. I love chicken salad, so I get the chicken salad croissant a lot. It's more so a lunch spot. Support this local gem.

I love French food, so I was so happy when this place opened up. It's run by a family. Although small, it shows that this family loves to cook, and knows how to cook French food. You can find all the staples of French cuisine here for dinner.

There a lot of taco joints on 12th South and I haven't tried them all but Fonda was a great. Every single item I had was chef's kiss. The margarita's were good but their signature Fonda marg was good and strong! They have a guac person on the floor and that was delicious with the pork skins. The watermelon salad was refreshing. The empanadas were to die for and I'd go back just for those, and the Fonda marg. The vibe is very chill so no need to dress up for this place and the service was great.

Great place for some dancing. The vibe is more up beat. Definitely should wear collared shirt, fun dress type place here. Ages range from 22-30 years old. On Fridays, they have an event called Flamboyant which creates a nice place to dance to "diva" music. "Diva" music meaning, Mariah Carey, Ariana Grande, Lizzo, Beyonce, etc.

It's weird to find but it's in the alley, up a few steps where theres a yellow triangle painted on the wall. Drinks are pricey but they're good and the space is amazing. The crowd is fun but it's a hit or miss as far as people go. I still enjoy my time here but I don't spend much time here. I think of this place as more for the space.

The drinks are good. Usually live music on the first floor and the second floor is chill, there's sushi on that floor which isn't bad to be honest. The rooftop is a nice view of Broadway and the river, plus a lot of people go day drinking here. I believe it cost $5-$10 because it turns into a pop/hiphop/remix dance floor.

You'll find a huge collective of Nashville staples in this food hall, especially if you're on Broadway. Some of my favorites are Prince's Hot Chicken, Pharmacy Burger, and Steam Boys. You'll catch some nice live music inside, while people watching. There's two sides to this food hall, so be sure to check it all out.

Do you like Banh Mi? You should go here for one. It's a market that has a deli. You can find their sandwiches at the cash register and if you get there early, they have other items on the counter. If you're going for a sandwich, I usually call ahead or you can wait about 10 minutes and look around while they make it. The basic/typical banh mi is $6 or so. Very good and my go to for a banh mi.

Secret Bar
Next to Printer's Alley is a secret bar called Hidden Bar (door is on Chruch St.), usually a different theme, kind of challenging to find but worth it. You have to go through the storage closet of the Noelle basement. The address is at 200 4th Ave N. Nashville, TN 37219. You'll make your way inside and down the stairs. Once at the bottom of the stairs, you'll go left into another room. You'll see someone standing in front of a room that says "storage". Approach the bouncer, say hello, bring out your ID, and enter when it's time. This is a place you'll want to go to start your night.
