Sonobana is a small Japanese restaurant in West Nashville that just serves simple fresh Japanese food. It's not fancy, trendy or touristy. There's a great little Japanese market attached to the restaurant which is fun to check out.

It's some of the best BBQ we've had anywhere, and we've tried a bunch. Avoid the long line in the front and enter through the back entrance on the street where Hilton Garden Inn is. You can order the full menu at any of the 4 bar areas without the wait in line. Try the ribs, brisket and baked beans...they're our favorites.

For true Neapolitan pizza, Desano's pizza is our favorite. The pizza ovens are located in the dining room, so you can watch them make your pizza while you wait in the casual dining area. We're a big fan of the pizza with calabrian peppers on it.

An incredibly curated and executed tasting menu based on the tastes of India. This is a unique experience in that the tasting menu is the same for everyone and the service is choreographed from start to finish of the experience. The owner/host discusses the origin and preparation of each dish as it is brought to the tables. The place is small and there are only two seatings per night so make sure to make reservations online.

This cozy and sophisticated spot serves breakfast lunch and dinner, and we most love going for brunch. Their menu changes seasonally but there is always a wide range of options. We've enjoyed everything from the decandent stout waffles with marscapone to the healthy but delicious egg bowl with kale, feta and preserved lemon. The Roze latte with cardamom and rose is also delicious!

For breakfast or brunch, very touristy but yummy. Try the bronuts - fried dough with marscapone and bluberry compote or the "east nasty" hot chicken breakfast sandwich. Go early, call in for take out (not as fun!) or be prepared to wait in a very long line.

Most all of the dishes are prepated to highlight their giant woodburning oven, so they obviously make an amazing pizza, but they also make delicous roasted meat and vegetable dishes. The cocktails are also always creative and well made.

Rudy's favorite pizza in all of Nashville. They don't have a dedicated restaurant, instead they are operating as a semi-permanent Pop-Up at the Urban Cowboy public house so you can enjoy one of their amazing pizza's while sipping on a drink in the public house courtyard, or take it home. We order pick up here often.

Very small but well executed menu. The shaved ice desert is worthy of the hype.

Excellently made tiki style cocktails. These are not just drinks made with tropical ingredients. Chopper has made it their mission to serve up the ultimate Tiki drinks and cocktails and thus they make their own mixes (falernum for example) which are essential to quality. Don't think just tropical flavors though.. they do all types with the same level of quality. We love the atmosphere, always a fun & friendly vibe and great music.

You have to check this place out. It's the coolest most unique house in East Nashville. And you can walk there from our house! The drinks are as delicious as the hip vibe. We love it for the people watching and atmosphere. If you're hungry, there is an amazing pizza pop-up called Roberta's in the parking lot which makes top-notch pizzas in a giant mobile woodburning oven. We love having this place so close.
