Red Perch

"Coastal meets casual at Red Perch, which had its first home in downtown Nashville’s The Arcade before moving to a permanent spot in Sylvan Park in 2021. Known for its fish and chips, this laidback eatery also serves a rotating fish of the day, poke bowls, shrimp banh mi, calamari, and clam chowder when the weather cools. From a husband and wife duo who met and married in Hawaii before settling in Nashville, Red Perch is a perfect spot for grabbing seafood, a pint, and catching up with friends." - Kellie Walton

"When you’re craving the coastal feeling of high tide, head to Red Perch for an order of fish and chips (the fries are some of the city’s best), crispy calamari, or one of the poke bowls. It once called Nashville’s Arcade home, but thanks to a slew of passionate regulars, the husband and wife duo were able to move to a brand new outpost where The Nations and Sylvan Park converge." - Kellie Walton

"This Sylvan Supply staple is known for bringing excellent seafood to landlocked Nashville through dishes like poke bowls and clam chowder. But, you have options when it comes to fried fish and chips — choose from traditional cod, or mix it up with fried shrimp or the fish of the day instead." - Kellie Walton
