Culamar - Review - Franklin - Nashville - The Infatuation

"The sister restaurant to Main Street’s Culaccino, Culamar’s menu is more seafood-heavy than its Italian counterpart down the road. It’s ideal for a low-stress date, a catch-up with that friend who always orders “for the table,” or a celebratory meal that doesn’t require a tuxedoed budget. Fresh and light appetizers like hamachi crudo, steamed mussels, and octopus carpaccio precede heartier plates of red snapper in a crustacean bisque and steamy bowls of cioppino in the airy, whitewashed dining room. If the weather’s nice, the upstairs terrace is really the spot to be, slurping chilled oysters and tropical rye-tais as the sun sets on Franklin." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones
