The 14 Best Restaurants In Downtown Nashville 2024

"If a restaurant and a spa had an illicit affair after one too many beers on Broadway, 1 Kitchen would be the result. It’s right off the lobby of the 1 Hotel and a great spot to grab some lighter cocktails and bites after work. There's lots of natural woods and plants, along with dishes that lean toward the sneaking-spinach-into-your-peanut-butter-smoothie type of healthy. Gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegan labels are all over the menu, and next to dishes like burrata and tomato carpaccio, pan-seared red snapper with okra soffritto, and roasted baby carrots with tahini. The cocktails, with minimal ingredients and fresh juices, also feel like they might actually be good for you." - jackie gutierrez jones 2, ann walczak
