The Pharmacy
I have yet to find a better burger than here at The Pharmacy. This place has incredible food and drinks, with my favorite being the original burger (substitute mustard with garlic aioli) and sweet potato fries. YUM. *You can't make reservations ahead of time, but you can use the No Wait app to help speed up the waiting process. Most of the time, this place is very busy (especially on weekends), but every now and then there isn't a wait. They also have an awesome outdoor seating area and bar. Located in East Nashville.

Bar Taco
This cute little restaurant is located on 12th South and has the most perfect indoor/outdoor seating. The tacos are tasty and the aesthetic is pleasing. The customer service is also great :) They have their own app called "Bar Taco" which can be used to save time if there's a long wait.

Prince’s Hot Chicken
Nashville is known for hot chicken. It is one of the cities staple foods, and there are several famous hot chicken restaurants around town. One of those being Prince's. There are two locations; the one I went to was in North Nashville. We went on a Sunday afternoon and waited in line for probably an hour, and then it was another hour before our food was ready. The restaurant is a hole-in-the-wall, and the seating reminded me of church pews. Unfortunately, my tolerance for spicy food is basically nada. It looked delicious and the fries were good, but I was only able to take a couple bites of the actually chicken before my mouth felt like it was on fire. However, my parents and husband all loved it and said it was incredible. Hot chicken is definitely a must when visiting Nash!
