"Miel is one of Nashville’s OG farm-to-table restaurants—this West End staple has been around for over 15 years, and the food is still interesting enough to keep us coming back. They do seasonal French-ish plates with the occasional Southern twist, like smoked brisket with a peppercorn demi-glace and a charred octopus with pickled peppers. There’s a charming and lush outdoor patio that’s great for around eight to 10 people, but they also have a fully rentable barn out back with plenty of space to do-si-do with your partner and swing them around." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones
