The 38 Best Restaurants in Nashville

"NY Pie opened in 2010 in the Nashville West shopping center but has grown into two additional locations in Hendersonville and Franklin. Owner Greg Meyer, who previously ran two other pizza joints before moving to the South, grew up working his way through pizzerias in New York and New Jersey, learning the tricks of the trade — so you know the restaurant tosses dough by hand. The signature thin pies are topped generously with the likes of anchovies, pepperoni, and mushrooms and baked in a brick oven. If you make it past this main attraction, the thicker Sicilian-style pan pizza is a sleeper hit. —JGJ" - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones, Ellen Fort
