Lee Beth's Guide to East Nashville
Restaurants
A list of amazing restaurants in the immediate neighborhood. East Nashville has been recognized, even nationwide, as a hotspot for dining.
One of the best restaurants in the neighborhood. Get the steak. You will not be sorry. Lockeland also has a great happy hour, a stone-fired pizza oven and an amazing pastry chef. It also shares a corner with Urban Cowboy Public House cocktail bar (also in this guide) so you can pop over after for a hip cocktail experience.

The BEST ramen in Nashville. Great cocktails. Tips: Get your ramen with a side of spicy miso paste and an extra egg. Also not widely known: You can order extra noodles if you still have broth left over for $3. The garlic noodles are a complete delicious indulgence. Note: they will not let you take your leftovers to go, so don't ask.

A neighborhood favorite Mex place. But definitely known for their hilarious marquee signs. Reese Witherspoon once instagrammed one of their better signs, and created a flood of celeb commentary, and it was amazing to follow.

Best pizza in town. Period. And a bunch of national lists say so too. The garlic knots are also insane (and super garlicky and oily, so beware) and you can also get slices to go from the pick-up side of the restaurant.

They make their own pastas. Go in order, wait in line, walk out with your food. There is a little bit of seating in there but it's not set up like a sit down restaurant. Tip: Meatballs are made with local Porter Road Butcher meat, and they are amazing. I go straight with Spaghetti and Meatballs here and it never disappoints.

These guys are known for their breakfast sandwiches. To feel like a local, you wanna say "Can I have 'one' to go?" They know what you're talking about. If you need two and if you're staying there to eat, obviously you would say "Can I have 'two' for here?" See how where I'm going with this? They are just a tad too rich for me, but they are indeed good.

High-end "doughnut" shop. I put doughnut in quotes because, well, these are not classic doughnuts. To me, they are unique pastries in doughnut shapes. They may have added more classic style cake doughnuts at some point. For more classic style doughnuts, try East Park Donuts.

Closest thing to conventional doughnuts on this side of town. They are still a little "fancy," but the vanilla brioche and the chocolate glazed brioche are good classics.

Kolaches RULE here. If you've never had a Kolache - go here and get the classic Cream Cheese one. They also have savory ones. And they have cinnamon rolls. This might be my favorite pastry place.

1920's-style cocktail bar - interior design on point. Cocktails on point. Small bites are really really good. Background music doesn't match the style is my only complaint, but that's pretty par for the course for any of these throwback "speakeasy" types. Which I still do not understand.

Original Attaboy is in Brooklyn. They will ask you what you like and make you something. No menu here. Their "speakeasy" type location is not super obvious. Parking can be a bitch, so I would Lyft/Uber. But cocktails and vibe - super super plus. Weekends are harder to get in.

The bar that accompanies their B&B. Wonderful cocktails, and also food. Outdoor firepit is nice as well - but be forewarned: you WILL smell like a firepit afterward.
