Celebrity Chef farm to table with a southern spin... using only the best heirloom ingredients!
A visit to Husk restaurant is a highlight of any trip to Nashville. Husk has been one of the most popular restaurants in the city—and, in fact, the country—since it opened in 2013. Set in an 1880s-era mansion just a few blocks off Broadway, the vibe is welcoming and the service is excellent (our server couldn’t wait to provide lots of local recommendations).
With a focus on strictly Southern ingredients presented in a contemporary way, the menu is constantly changing. We loved the shrimp and grits, the cornbread, the perfectly cooked filet mignon, and every other bite we had. The cocktails are excellent, too. If you’re a whiskey lover, this is your spot.

A place with “steak & oyster” in the name may not make you immediately think that it’s a fabulous brunch option, but it is. The Southern Steak & Oyster offers shucked-to-order oysters, specialties from their food-fire grill, and culinary elements from the American South, the Caribbean, and beyond. Plus, they have killer cocktails.
At brunch, there’s lots to choose from. The crab cake hash was one of our favorites, and the New South Caesar salad was also a winner. They also do the basics like pancakes and fried eggs to perfection. Wash it all down with a blood orange mimosa or Bloody Mary for a delicious start to the day.
