The 14 Best Restaurants In Downtown Nashville 2024
"The Four Seasons’ Mimo had a pretty intense changing of the guard in 2024, and, honestly? It’s better than ever. The inside still feels like a modern Tuscan plaza with leafy potted palms and trees, bright sunlight streaming from the floor-to-ceiling windows, and sandy stone walls. The Italian food here is more of the coastal variety, though, and dishes tend to skew light rather than heavy—not a bad thing when you’re grabbing a bite before a show at the Ryman. Order the hamachi crudo with fennel, chili, and lemon oil in addition to the summery burrata panzanella with juicy pops of heirloom tomatoes. The creamy spring risotto or the Iberico pork pluma (this is the only place you’ll find this cut in Nashville) are standout mains that you can cap off with one of the best desserts ever: a dead-on replica of two Amalfi lemons made from white chocolate and filled with a lemon confit cream." - jackie gutierrez jones 2, ann walczak
