New American Restaurants in Nashville, TN

“Food was amazing! Loved the experience“

“Pinewood in Nashville was amazing! We came here for a bachelorette party and had the best experience. The food was incredible, the drinks were on point, and the service made us feel like total VIPs. Our group was taken care of from start to finish and everyone was so friendly and attentive. Highly recommend Pinewood if you’re looking for a fun spot in Nashville with great vibes, great food, and great service!“

“The staff went above and beyond to make our experience delicious and memorable. The pepita sunflower crisp is hands down one my favorite things. They even allowed me to buy some to take home because of how much I loved it. We can't wait to go back!“

“The atmosphere is very nice and the food is delicious!“

“Fantastic service coupled with a well-executed menu!! Intimate atmosphere and delicious plates. Perfect for girls night out or a date night. Parking can be a challenge so don’t be late. The maitre’d is prompt to greet you and they ensure that your experience is flawless throughout the meal. 10/10 recommend!!“

“One of the best meals we have ever had to one of be best soundtracks ever. Owners and staff are quality people. We will be back anytime we are in Nashville, if we can get in. :-)“

“I'm a New Yorker in Nashville. In this Neopolitan wood fired era, this is different. It takes time, but usually good things do.

And like a good New Yorker, I picked this ezzo pepperoni slice up to eat it. That is a skill, from me and the chef.“

“Each time we fly through Nashville, we stopped here to eat. The food is really good, and the service is top-notch. The manager, Maverick? I think, will be seen busing tables during busy times. The wait staff is always friendly. This time we had Tracy- a spunky gal with a great attitude. No matter what you order you can’t go wrong with a side of their queso. That wonderfully smooth hot cheese dip is good on everything. Also, most of the time we split when we go here- we get the double patty burger- it’s excellent!“

“Nearly a perfect experience- 5 out of 5 Star rating!
Food A+
Table Service A+
Atmosphere A+
We just didn't appreciate the very standoffish attitude of the young girl working the front reception desk. We almost left before we got to experience this wonderful place. Glad we got past her bad snobbish attitude and to everyone else who worked so hard to make our night a wonderful experience.
Posting great photos that reflect what a very nice restaurant this is!

We will gladly will recommend and return soon! Let's hope I don't have to deal with the spoiled brat at the front!“

“Chauntel with Offline - Absolutely phenomenal experience!

Fancy Pants exceeded all expectations. From the moment I walked in, the service was warm, attentive, and professional. You get a complementary cocktail in an adorable glass cup. The plating was nothing short of art, every dish was beautifully presented didn’t disappoint in flavor. You can tell that a lot of care and creativity goes into every detail, from the ingredients to the presentation.“

“Excellent Food, great Service. Wonderful experience“

“You can’t beat the Skull room in Nashville. The food, service, music, and atmosphere 5 plus stars! Highly recommend“

“Sexy food the best food thank you for everything“

“amazing food and staff! The brunch is top tier“

“Great experience at Pelican and Pig! We sat at the chef's counter and found it very interesting to be able to watch the crew work and ask a few questions. They were very personable. Our server was great as well. We loved how the courses were separated so that we were able to enjoy each dish on its own. Having never had corn ribs before, we were blown away by how good they were. In fact, everything we tried was delicious. The ribeye steak though... one of the best steaks we have ever had. Highly recommend Pelican and Pig!“

“The coffee and breakfast were top notch, and the service is outstanding! We loved the farro bowl, omelet, and burrito. The food came out hot and fresh and was very well seasoned. Mary and Tate were our servers and we will be coming back here often!!“

“Excellent food and service! The chefs are artist. ❤️“

“Y’all we drove from Birmingham to eat here. Graze Nashville did not disappoint! Amazing food! The Brussels were my favorite 😋“

“A classy place with a nice atmosphere.

1. Cucumber Hibiscus Negroni 11 (mocktail)
A not too sweet, refreshing non-alcoholic drink. Perfect.

2. Bread & Butter 6 (Parker roll)
Very good. Butter is slightly sweet and goes well with salt & pepper on top of the bread. Highly recommended.

3. Etch 10
The signature salad that crowns its own name. It has accents of blue cheese, melon, and nuts. It could have been with a little less dressing but still very good and can be recommended.

4. Chef’s Creation 56 (mahi-mahi)
Cooked just right to have a crispy skin. Potatoes were also made crispy outside and I couldn’t stop having more. Again it could have had a little less sauce but still it was very good.

5. Chocolate Mousse Bar (à la mode with ice cream) 13(+3)
It was rather an ordinary sweet chocolate cake.“

“Absolutely great food, great atmosphere and incredible service. Don't miss out on the experience 🌹“

“The best dining experience I’ve ever had. The chef’s choice was an awesome choice! Everything that came out was delicious. Our servers were wonderful especially our waitress who had us sign her Nancy Drew book. That added to the experience! Can’t wait to go back!“

“Husk of Nashville is an upscale restaurant in the historic part of downtown Nashville. There is a lot of history tied to the location and our waiter/host was very knowledgeable. The food is delicious and there was something for everyone to enjoy. I attended a private event and the space was perfect. There was a separate entrance and the atmosphere was welcoming.“

“• The Vibe: Efficient. Warm. 5-Star Service. • The Miss: Alfredo was too light. (Nothing beats Nana's). • The Hit: Scallops & Risotto were perfect. • The MVP: The desserts stole the show.“

“My kids took me for my birthday. Walking in, the ladies at the front were very nice wishing me a happy birthday. Our waiter, Clifton, could not have been any nicer or attentive. My menu came with a Happy Birthday Anna written on it. The whole experience was really special. Everyone was just friendly and did their job over and above expectations. The food was very good. My daughter and I split a 12 oz Cowgirl ribeye which was perfect. My son got the Cowboy ribeye and he said it was amazing. The Mac n cheese was good. My DIL got the pasta primavera and she liked it. The butter cake was great and the waiter surprised me with Crème Brûlée. All very good. Great atmosphere. Definitely will be going back. Thank you for making my birthday memorable!“

“Live music with great food, drinks, & service!“

“Avo in Nashville is a must-visit! The cheese platter is absolutely incredible—perfectly curated and packed with flavor. It’s definitely a must-do when you’re there. The pesto penne primavera was amazing, with fresh, vibrant flavors that really stood out. And don’t miss out on the avocado margarita—it’s a unique and delicious twist on a classic cocktail that you’ll want to try! The vibe is laid-back yet trendy, and the food and drinks are top-notch. Highly recommend if you’re looking for great vegan food and a fun experience!“

“We were in town to visit our daughter and boyfriend and decided to eat here. From the moment we arrived to when we left the service was top tier! One of our top three lifetime dining experiences. Shout to all the staff for making it memorable. Will definitely be back next time we are in town.“

“While visiting family in Nashville we dined at Gunnons. This was my second visit, and I again was not disappointed. The prime rib is superb and much more than I could eat. Our table shared the eggplant olivia and I have to say that it is the best eggplant dish I have ever eaten.“

“The service was excellent and the food was phenomenal.“

“The food is outstanding, the drinks are well balanced and unique, unfortunately the service was... not awesome. It could be my group had had some exceptional service the last couple restaurants we went to, but just felt a bit offstandish and impatient. Would still say 100% out this on your itinerary. We had the pate, the citrus salad, beef tartare, and a pizza, all were amazing.“

“Velvet Taco has great tasting flavor combinations, But… the tortillas are cold grocery store type. I ended up just eating the inside of my tacos with chips because the tortillas reminded me of playdoh… change the tortillas to a more authentic (cooked) tortilla and it’ll be sooo much better!!“

“This is my go to place when dinner is the question. I love, love the food here.“

“Last night we had a wonderful dinner at Germantown Cafe!! We had an outstanding server, thank you Conner!! The Tenderloin Pork with the Mash potatoes and green beans was outstanding! Thank you guys for sharing the sauce recipe with me!! Tim & Kat :)“

“we went to this restraunt during my husband's work party last night and it was amazing! the drinks were made so fast! they were made very well, you can tell that the bar tender really takes the drinks seriously in the best way! :) their very social and kind, they were super calm even through everyone getting their and getting drinks prepped and sent out, then the food was a solid 9/10! for me personally I'm a picky person but i loved just about everything, the servers and host were also very kind I wish I had gotten all their names to reccomend! the bar tenders name was Christian and he was truly wonderful at his job, my favorite was the creme Brule dessert, it was sweet and smooth and crunchy and perfect, I truly reccomend this place for a calm or social event where your able to truly relax in a wonderful little place ❤️ also the alcohol selection was really nicely selected i had tried the spicy sangria, pomegranate margarita, polar pear & blackberry something, they were also so good about telling the ingredients and what they like about the drinks makes it an easier selection, or they have bourbon for those who love a strong smooth drink“

“We went for a day after Valentine's Day dinner just in case they were busy yesterday. The arrechara steak and pollo al carbon were well seasoned and very tasty. We shared a baked potato and street corn sides that were just the right amount to share and complimented the proteins well.

Our server was Lauren and she was attentive and helpful, since I have celiac disease and she made sure I knew what to avoid.

We'll definitely be back!“

“Great pizza, drinks and service!!“

“My sister and I treat ourselves every weekend dining out, somewhere nice. RozePony was just what we needed. We shared some appetizers, my sister loves wedge salad and this was the best one she’s ever had. The Almond risotto and the trout were so delicious we didn’t have room for dessert. So we took some to-go. Highly recommended!“

“I have brought family and friends to sixty vines a few times and really enjoy their atmosphere, food, and service! Each time I have been has been 10/10. Parking down on 5th broad and going up to the top is so quick and easy as well. The food is fresh, wine is delicious, and the atmosphere is a fun boho vibe. I have had the pleasure of having Johnathan as our server the last few times and he is so personable , fun, kind, and one of the best on broadway!! One of my favorite spots In Nashville 🍷“
