The 25 Best Restaurants In Nashville - Nashville - The Infatuation
"There are a ton of hot chicken names you might recognize—Prince's, Bolton's, Hattie B's—but our top pick in the city right now comes from a West End spot that’s only gotten better with time. Red’s doesn’t do bone-in birds, but we’ll forgive them, as they’ve perfected the breading-to-meat ratio on the tenders and boneless thighs, resulting in a nice crispy exterior. Plus, the hot chicken crunchwrap deserves its own religious sect—this perfectly folded and seared tortilla is straight-up oozing with comeback sauce, pimento mac and cheese, and hunks of hot chicken. In terms of atmosphere, it’s pretty casual and accessible, thanks to its walk-up window near the Parthenon and the lack of lines you find at other places. Red’s also gets big bonus points for being able to grab a beer next door from the oldest bar in Nashville, Springwater." - jackie gutierrez jones 2, carlo mantuano, ann walczak
