"Named for the year Franklin was founded, 1799 is a date-night destination inside the Harpeth Hotel. Chef Thomas Tuggle heads up the kitchen here, doling out a robust Southern and Creole-influenced menu that includes plenty of seafood, game, and produce from local farms and outlets. On the menu: freshly shucked oysters, elk carpaccio, steelhead trout, a fat-cured bison strip, and heirloom carrots with Leiper’s Fork honey." - Eater Staff, Jackie Gutierrez-Jones
