The Best Restaurants In East Nashville
The Infatuation Nashville, March 2025
East Nashville is like that friend who swears they were wearing Crocs before they were even a thing (you know who we’re talking about). The neighborhood is home to small mom-and-pop shops and lots of quirky creative types who eschew the big chain invasion. But there are also the lush trails at Shelby Bottoms Greenway, a popping farmer’s market, and an absurdly wonderful amount of murals. That translates to a really interesting dining scene that’s not afraid to challenge the status quo, experiment with new concepts, and even devote time to an annual art festival dedicated to … tomatoes.
