The 12 Best New Restaurants In Nashville 2024

"We’ve never set out to eat our weight in lentils, but after trying the hearty tomato and berbere-laden stew in the center of the vegetarian plate at Abem, that quest looks pretty appealing. This is the newest Ethiopian restaurant in town, and it’s one of the best options for a soothing late breakfast/early lunch that you’ll want to repeat over and over again. Drink some spiced tea, a liquid form of the greatest hug you’ve ever received, and order the lentil sambusa, a perfectly flaky pocket containing delicious black lentils. The small, one-room cafe is bright and perfect for digging into sauteed beef jerky in the quanta fir-fir, and tearing into the homemade injera with gusto." - ann walczak, carlo mantuano, jackie gutierrez jones 2

Don’t miss this gem! They make their injera with 100% Teff by hand. So delicious! All the spices were fresh and on point. A vegan and vegetarian nirvana of flavors. Absolutely delicious. Great care to make each dish to perfection. We will be back! Thank you.🙏

The restaurant was clean, very welcoming.The food was very well presented.The portions was big enough. The owner himself served us, while his wife prepared our food. The food was authentic and delicious. I also mentioned it was my friend's birthday and he gifted us a dessert on the house. A highly recommended place to anyone that likes ethiopian food.

Delicious food, amazing coffee, and the nicest people! Abem Ethiopian Coffee & Kitchen is such a hidden gem — everything tastes fresh and authentic, the place is super clean, and the vibe is warm and welcoming. My friend mentioned it was my birthday, and they surprised me with a baklava on the house! Chef Genet even came out to introduce herself and check how everything was. Mezmur was amazing too — such genuine hospitality all around. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Absolutely delicious food. The owner was very kind in explaining the different dishes to us and suggesting something that would be good for our first time trying Ethiopian food. We got a veggie spread with the injera and a lamb dish and WOW it was so pretty and so many different flavors. So so good. The coffee was also very very good. Will be coming back the next time we travel through Nashville.

We had a great dinner at Abem!! The owners were very kind, and the food was delicious. We got the Abem Special Kifto and the Lamb Tims, plus some spiced tea and baklava. Lots of gluten-free and vegetarian options if that’s what you’re looking for, but we highly recommend for anyone!

My husband and I had the best experience at Abem! The service was attentive and welcoming. The owners are lovely and personable - they helped us put together our perfect platter, and it did not disappoint! The restaurant is clean, and beautifully decorated. You can tell they really care about the quality of your experience and meal. We will be back for sure. Highly recommend!!

Abem is hands down my favorite Ethiopian restaurant in Nashville. Everything here is made fresh, in-house, and you can taste the love in every bite. The food is absolutely incredible. I have never had lamb this tender in my life. Every dish I’ve tried has been full of flavor and cooked to perfection. They even make beets taste good. The service is always pleasant, the atmosphere is beautiful, and the music is a vibe. It’s the kind of place where you feel welcome the moment you walk in. Everyone I’ve brought here has left happy, full, and already planning their next visit. If you haven’t been yet, please go support them. They’re truly something special.

Went to dinner with a friend here and it was both of our first times trying Ethiopian food. Let me tell you, this was absolutely AMAZING. The food was sooooo good, we also had tons of leftovers after. The service was so good as well, the person serving us was so nice and kind. The restaurant itself is so cute and it's such a vibe to go in and drink tea and just chat. 10/10 will visit again

I'm an out of towner and was so excited to have found an Ethiopian restaurant in the area. The owner welcomes you wholeheartedly with a big smile. I ordered the veggie plate and it really hit the spot after my hike. Everything is homemade and the injera is perfection made with 100% teff. Invite your friends, share some dishes, support this mom and pop. It's well worth it!

What a friendly place! Service, cleanliness and food 5 stars!!! Kitfo special was fresh and delicious, with a perfect blend of butter and spice! Injera was fresh, soft authentically made with teff. I definitely will return again. Thank you all!!!
