The Best Salad in Nashville

Voodoo Gumbo

★★★★★ 4.6 (480) • $$

"For authentic Cajun fare in the Bellevue area, come to Voodoo Gumbo. The jambalaya was delicious. Their french bread is the best and it makes for an amazing po'boy.The staff is friendly and attentive. They do not assume you are a NOLA native and explain the tastes and options for everything.This is great food to take to go or for delivery.For a quick lunch or delicious dinner, consider Voodoo Gumbo."

Lyncoya Cafe

★★★★★ 4.5 (343) • $$

"A favorite cafe of mine. The kitchen outperforms, preparing outstanding flavors with superb presentation.Previously, the location was a sandwich shop and a local meat and 3. Not the location you expect fine dining. It is totally different now. When they first opened everyone was packed in the lobby waiting for a table. No reservations, just a wait list, since then, they take your cell number and you wait in your car/outside until called. Wait time estimates are pretty accurate. Casual seating at tables and booths, you can share appetizers and then enjoy your main course. I like them all. (I miss the caprise salad)Dishes do change seasonally with the growing season but the proteins hold pretty steady.Totally worth it.Navigate the parking lot carefully."

Caliber Coffee

★★★★★ 4.7 (268)

"This place is super duper cute, lots of seating and good place to get work done. I got the Iced YA latte - this was delicious. I loved the sweet not overpowering taste of the milky drink.Staff are also super friendly! Definitely recommend!"

Homegrown Taproom & Kitchen

★★★★☆ 4.1 (337) • $$

"I had the burger and it was great. The bbq sauce is sweet but not a detractor at all with the saltiness of the bacon. I wish they had fries as I'm not a chip fan but I ate of the house made chips. We shared the bacon wrapped pimento cheese stuffed jalapeños and OMG you have to get those. My wife had the build you own grilled cheese with avocado with the soup of the day which was a pepperoni pizza soup both of which were great.I now see why Chef Maneet brought Guy here for DDD."

Angelo's Picnic Pizza

★★★★☆ 4.3 (268) • $

"I finally got to have Picnic Pizza again for the first time since they moved to SmyrnaIt is definitely worth the drive. The good news is the pizza is still as amazing as ever!!!It was well lit, clean and the employees were very friendly and attentive There have been some changes though that I wasn't expecting There is no longer pasta on the menuAnd the house salad has changedNow it only comes with tomato and the incredible shredded mozzarella cheese, I had to add all the toppings that previously came on itBut it is twice the size as it was before The mushrooms on the salad are canned mushrooms, they used to put fresh mushrooms on the salad, canned mushrooms on the pizza Now canned mushrooms are on bothAnd sadly the Italian salad dressing they used to make isnt available anymore I will still be back! I still love it!I'm happy it only changed a little And they are still around and still making amazing pizza"

Germantown Pub

★★★★☆ 3.7 (253) • $$

"This bar used to look really new in 2017 while the staff used to seem very experienced like they had been doing it for years. Tall boy cans seem to be the order of the day here and they have tall boys for beers I have never seen tall boys for before. The bartenders were really great, friendly, attentive, provided fast service and remembered my name every time I ordered. They have a small little patio on the side that was mostly filled with the smokers. This seems to be more of a sports bar vibe than anything else and they also have a decent menu and I've sampled some of the food and it is alright but there are way better options in the area these days. The parking lot is a bit small and often is full but it is usually easy to find street parking a block or so away. Overall this used to be a cool little spot to enjoy some sports. Back during my first few visits in 2017 I got the impression here that the staff were really nice folks and the bar offered fair prices and provided a nice comfortable venue so it was just a good spot to be if you were in the area. In the years since my first visit this bar just kept being less enjoyable to me. I used to always make sure to pay a visit to the Germantown Pub during every visit I made to Nashville but now I find it just isn't a place I want to stop at anymore as all the friendly bartenders seem to have left.

Ground Restaurant

★★★★☆ 4.3 (171) • $$

"Gotta love this place!!Small town burger joint in Franklin, TN amazing food, small town atmosphere and awesome staff. I just placed and order to go, which you'll have to do there as they aren't currently taking to go orders over the phone. It is really easy though, walk up to the counter (basically to the kitchen) and use the large touch screen to place your order, they make it really really easy to customize your food with their POS system. I got two Pioneer burgers to go with fries and they were all done and ready to go in less than 10 min. The staff was super nice, some young hard working gentlemen, and the place was clean and had a great small town diner vibe. I definitely recommend it here!"

Sal's Pizza

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (189) • $$

"This was a nice surprise that our hotel suggested. The place was slammed when we arrived which was a good sign. They quickly had us at a table. It did take a while to take our order and get us our drinks, but they were really busy. The food came out pretty quick and both the kiddo and I enjoyed it. We tore thru o we half the large before finally giving up and getting a box. The best part...under $20!Definitely recommended."

El Trompo Taco Shop

★★★★☆ 4.4 (109) • $$

"Amazing with Mexican cuisine! The food at El Trompo will leave you stuffed and satisfied -that's what she said! Oh all jokes aside the food at El Trompo really does have flavor and soul. Most recently they added birria & quesibirria tacos on the weekends (Saturday and Sunday only). The tacos IMHO are priced but worth every penny. The ingredients are always fresh and the quality never lacks. The service is always great, my family has been coming here since 2018 and its been great to see them go from a small minimal seating hole in a wall to the expanded seating area and bar Hendersonville staple they are today. The service is consistent and the menu is larger but the quality doesn't change."

Mozzarella Pizzeria

★★★★☆ 3.8 (143) • $

Soy Cubano

★★★★★ 4.7 (85)

"Very good. I have no complaints. Although I will say I didn't think the Cuban sandwich was better than any other I've had, it was a great sandwich. There's NO indoor seating. You order at a window outside. Pro tip: you can have your sandwich delivered to the Bay 6 bar which has indoor seating with AC. Have a cocktail while you enjoy your sandwich. Pro tip 2: the parking lot is tiny but there's plenty of free street parking in the neighborhood behind the restaurant."

Rafferty's Restaurant & Bar

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (145) • $$

"I hadn't been to Rafferty's in 10 years or so. I went with two other adults and a child. It was Friday night so I thought we'd have to wait, but it was not crowded so we were seated at once. Oh, it was cold! The air conditioning was on full blast and other customers were cold. We asked to waiter to see if it could be turned down; he said he had and soon it began to warm up. Soon a manager came by to see if we were comfortable.Service was quick and the waiter checked on us several times. I had the California Burger with bacon. Fried were my side. Food was good and plentiful. There was a child's menu and the grilled cheese sandwich sounded good; I would have liked it.The place is a bit tired. The men's restroom was not as well taken care of as I hoped, but acceptable. I didn't have an alcoholic drink as I had sweet tea which was fine. The manager checked on us several times.It's an OK place and must do well as it's been there for a number of years. Bring it up to date and it'll be fine. I had a nice time and left FULL!"

Cinco De Mayo Mexican Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.5 (133) • $

"Cinco de Mayo Mexican restaurant is just off of Interstate 40 and was convenient to my hotel. The service was decent, but unfortunately, the food was mediocre. The Nashville, Tennessee area has some fantastic Mexican restaurant, unfortunately, this is not one of them.I went with one of their burritos. I've had burritos all over, this was okay. Unfortunately, that seems to be the theme of this restaurant, it is just okay. Is not very authentic and even for Americanized Mexican food, it is still not very good.Sadly, I cannot recommend this establishment. It was not terrible, but results are not very good. As I said, Nashville, Tennessee has some fantastic Mexican restaurants. Check one of them out before coming here."

Michaelangelo's Pizza

★★★☆☆ 2.9 (144) • $$

"Apartment complex had pizza from this spot, tried pepperoni and one with pepperoni, sausage, mushroom, bell peppers, onion. Pizza was pretty thin, flavorless, not very good at all. Crust was a bit hard too."

Maro's Gyros

★★★★☆ 4.1 (59) • $

"Stopped here 12 August 2020 with a coworker. Lunch was great, price reasonable and customer service was great. Ordered the mixed gyro. Pita was loaded with meat and veggies. Seasoned fried were tasty. A smidgen over fried for my taste, but were definitely hot and crispy."

Brotherly Love Cheesesteaks

★★★★★ 4.7 (32)

"Good food in a nice, clean restaurant. The cheesesteaks here are really good. Everything is made to order and you get to select your cheese and add any veggies (or double meat) for a slight charge. The fries were served hot and they were well seasoned. The staff were nice and we really enjoyed our meal. This is a great place for lunch. The food is tasty and the prices are reasonable."

Chopt Creative Salad Co.

★★★☆☆ 2.9 (80)

"I love a good salad! The thing about this particular location is you never know if you're going to get one or not. While at times they are awesome, half the time they forget ingredients, don't put dressings on the side as asked, or put the wrong ingredients in. Very unreliable.Location is convenient (at Green Hills mall next to Cava and North Italia) but the parking situation leaves much to be desired.Lots of great combos to choose from on their menu, or you can build you own. While I'll likely be a few more times as it's so close to my work, I much prefer the Brentwood location!"

Cinco de Mayo

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (57) • $

"Food here is a little different from traditional Mexican places. EX: Their Chili Rellenos are not deep fried, but the way they do them is pretty good. The cheese is an open faced relleno with red sauce and cheese oven fried. I also tried it with chicken and cheese, where they prepared it with melted cheese dip over a grilled relleno stuffed with diced chicken. Both actually really good, but I was surprised the first time I ordered it in expecting a deep friend rellano. Their "skinny" marg is still pretty sweet so not sure how skinny it is, but it is good. They have some of the best salsa I have ever had. Service is general quick and food always tastes fresh."

Cinco de Mayo Mexican Restaurant - Hendersonville

★★★★☆ 4.1 (35) • $$

"Used Cinco De Mayo to cater a lunch for one of my doctor's offices. They did a really good job having the food ready on time and they gave me a decent price.Everyone seemed to enjoy the spread of beef and chicken fajitas with rice, beans, chips, salsa, Guacamole, sour Cream, and the feast.I would use them again."

Cinco de Mayo Mexican Restaurant

★★★★☆ 3.7 (29)

"Used this location to prepare lunch for one of my doctor's offices and they did an amazing job. They really paid attention to detail and provided everything I asked for. Very professional staff and great ambiance as well! Everyone loved the food"

Eggs Up Grill

★★★★☆ 3.7 (27)

"This is a new breakfast & brunch restaurant located in a shopping center in Hermitage. Four of us had breakfast here and we all really liked it.I had the avocado toast with 2 eggs. Tuscan toast with avocado and an interesting salsa and I was happy! A great side of cheesy grits with bacon topped it off. Yum. Others had Founders hash Benedict, waffles and the Classic. It was fast and great tasting. Our waitress was Kalya - fast, friendly and was tops in service. As Arnold said, 'I'll be back!'"

Amorcito Corazon Mexican Grill

★★★★★ 4.5 (18)

"We stopped while driving through on our way to DCI Phantom Regiment Camp in Kentucky. Lots of Mexican restaurants to choose from in Nashville, but chose this one a bit north of the city and so glad we did! The restaurant is absolutely GORGEOUS with all of the murals! I loved it and the food was just as good. They serve BOGO margaritas, and cold beer. We had apps of cheese dip and elote and were impressed with the vegetarian menu, as one of us never has many choices. So nice to have options! Great food and service, will be back when driving through!"

JamBox Sandwich Shop

★★★★★ 4.9 (9)

"We stopped by on a Thursday (late afternoon) and it was pretty empty. The decor is pretty interesting. It has an old world charm with a dash of a masculine vibe. I ordered the orange jam sandwich to share with the honey. That dang sandwich was freakin delicious! The orange marmalade came through without overpowering the sandwich. The slaw was not watery, so all just melded beautifully. I can't wait to go again!"

Eighth & Main Burger

★★★★☆ 3.9 (8)

"This is a newer burger place in town.I really enjoyed The Devil Goes Down to Georgia burger (see pic).The service was very nice and place is fine inside.My only complaint are the fries, not my fave by far (reminded me of High School cafeteria fries).But they have other options for side other than fries!"

Pita & Grill

★★☆☆☆ 1.9 (8)

"I have tried shawarma at so many places in different states and different countries and I can tell you pita and grill's shawarma was one of the best shawarma's I ever had. Very authentic taste. Plus you can customize your sandwich. I like to add almost everything minus onions. Me and my sister got the one chicken shawarma and one beef and we shared it. For me I liked the chicken better but that is just my own taste. I want to go back and trey their falafel too."

Chicago Gyros

★★★★☆ 3.5 (2)

"My Daughter had ordered a meal from here last week. She shared with me how much she enjoyed it, so I decided to check them out for myself today. I had the 8-pc wings with sweet chili sauce on the side & a small fry. The wings were so delicious & the sweet chili sauce made my entire meal Pop! The amount of food you get for the price you pay is well worth it. If you're hungry and want a good portion for a competitive price, go check out Chicago Gyros on Ewing Lane, right off of Dickerson Road. You'll Be Glad You Did! The Customer Service was excellent. All the staff were friendly, cordial and sweet!"
