New Nashville restaurant among Bon Appetit's top 10 restaurants to try this spring

Tennessean, April 2025

When Brian Lea and Leina Horii announced their East Nashville Japanese comfort food restaurant Kisser, the attention from national media was nearly immediate.

Bon Appétit called Kisser one of the 12 most anticipated restaurant openings of 2023, and The New York Times named it one of the 50 most exciting restaurants in the U.S. Then it was nominated for a James Beard Award for Best New Restaurant 2024.
